s3c24xx_serial_set_termios()
commit b8995f527aac143e83d3900ff39357651ea4e0f6 upstream.
This patch fixes the broken serial log when changing the clock source
of uart device. Before disabling the original clock source, this patch
enables the new clock source to protect the clock off state for a split second.

commit 6798df4c5fe0a7e6d2065cf79649a794e5ba7114 upstream.
When csw->con_startup() fails in do_register_con_driver, we return no
error (i.e. 0). This was changed back in 2006 by commit 3e795de763.
Before that we used to return -ENODEV.
So fix the return value to be -ENODEV in that case again.

commit ff1cab374ad98f4b9f408525ca9c08992b4ed784 upstream.
The BSP team noticed that there is spin/mutex lock issue on sh-sci when
CPUFREQ is used. The issue is that the notifier function may call
mutex_lock() while the spinlock is held, which can lead to a BUG().
This may happen if CPUFREQ is changed while another CPU calls
clk_get_rate().
Taking the spinlock was added to the notifier function in commit
e552de2413edad1a ("sh-sci: add platform device private data"), to
protect the list of serial ports against modification during traversal.
At that time the Common Clock Framework didn't exist yet, and
clk_get_rate() just returned clk->rate without taking a mutex.
Note that since commit d535a2305facf9b4 ("serial: sh-sci: Require a
device per port mapping."), there's no longer a list of serial ports to
traverse, and taking the spinlock became superfluous.
To fix the issue, just remove the cpufreq notifier:
1. The notifier doesn't work correctly: all it does is update stored
clock rates; it does not update the divider in the hardware.
The divider will only be updated when calling sci_set_termios().
I believe this was broken back in 2004, when the old
drivers/char/sh-sci.c driver (where the notifier did update the
divider) was replaced by drivers/serial/sh-sci.c (where the
notifier just updated port->uartclk).
Cfr. full-history-linux commits 6f8deaef2e9675d9 ("[PATCH] sh: port
sh-sci driver to the new API") and 3f73fe878dc9210a ("[PATCH]
Remove old sh-sci driver").
2. On modern SoCs, the sh-sci parent clock rate is no longer related
to the CPU clock rate anyway, so using a cpufreq notifier is
futile.

commit 899f0c1c7dbcc487fdc8756a49ff70b1d5d75f89 upstream.
The internal clock of the master chip, which is usually 125MHz, is only half
(62.5MHz) for the slave chips. So we have to adjust the uartclk for all the
slave ports. Therefor we add a new function to determine if a slave chip is
present and update pci_xr17v35x_setup accordingly.

commit 1f55c718c290616889c04946864a13ef30f64929 upstream.
Considering current pty code and multiple devpts instances, it's possible
to umount a devpts file system while a program still has /dev/tty opened
pointing to a previosuly closed pty pair in that instance. In the case all
ptmx and pts/N files are closed, umount can be done. If the program closes
/dev/tty after umount is done, devpts_kill_index will use now an invalid
super_block, which was already destroyed in the umount operation after
running ->kill_sb. This is another "use after free" type of issue, but now
related to the allocated super_block instance.
To avoid the problem (warning at ida_remove and potential crashes) for
this specific case, I added two functions in devpts which grabs additional
references to the super_block, which pty code now uses so it makes sure
the super block structure is still valid until pty shutdown is done.
I also moved the additional inode references to the same functions, which
also covered similar case with inode being freed before /dev/tty final
close/shutdown.

commit 2831c89f42dcde440cfdccb9fee9f42d54bbc1ef upstream.
This change fixes a bug for a corner case where we have the the last
release from a pty master/slave coming from a previously opened /dev/tty
file. When this happens, the tty->driver_data can be stale, due to all
ptmx or pts/N files having already been closed before (and thus the inode
related to these files, which tty->driver_data points to, being already
freed/destroyed).
The fix here is to keep a reference on the opened master ptmx inode.
We maintain the inode referenced until the final pty_unix98_shutdown,
and only pass this inode to devpts_kill_index.

commit 5c17c861a357e9458001f021a7afa7aab9937439 upstream.
ioctl(TIOCGETD) retrieves the line discipline id directly from the
ldisc because the line discipline id (c_line) in termios is untrustworthy;
userspace may have set termios via ioctl(TCSETS*) without actually
changing the line discipline via ioctl(TIOCSETD).
However, directly accessing the current ldisc via tty->ldisc is
unsafe; the ldisc ptr dereferenced may be stale if the line discipline
is changing via ioctl(TIOCSETD) or hangup.
Wait for the line discipline reference (just like read() or write())
to retrieve the "current" line discipline id.

commit 96a5d18bc1338786fecac73599f1681f59a59a8e upstream.
The Exar XR17V358 chip usually provides only 8 ports. But two chips can be
combined to act as a single 16 port chip. Therefor one chip is configured
as master the second as slave by connecting the mode pin to VCC (master)
or GND (slave).
Then the master chip is reporting a different device-id depending on
whether a slave is detected or not. The UARTs 8-15 are addressed from
0x2000-0x3fff. So the offset of 0x400 from UART to UART can be used to
address all 16 ports as before.

commit 392bceedb107a3dc1d4287e63d7670d08f702feb upstream.
The driver configures the IDLE condition to interrupt the SDMA engine.
Since the SDMA UART ROM script doesn't clear the IDLE bit itself, this
caused repeated 1-byte DMA transfers, regardless of available data in the
RX FIFO. Also, when returning due to the IDLE condition, the UART ROM
script already increased its counter, causing residue to be off by one.
This patch clears the IDLE condition to avoid repeated 1-byte DMA transfers
and decreases count by when the DMA transfer was aborted due to the IDLE
condition, fixing serial transfers using DMA on i.MX6Q.

commit 8f9cfeed3eae86c70d3b04445a6f2036b27b6304 upstream.
when gsmtty_remove put dlci, it will cause memory leak if dlci->port's refcount is zero.
So we do the cleanup work in .cleanup callback instead.
dlci will be last put in two call chains.
1) gsmld_close -> gsm_cleanup_mux -> gsm_dlci_release -> dlci_put
2) gsmld_remove -> dlci_put
so there is a race. the memory leak depends on the race.
In call chain 2. we hit the memory leak. below comment tells.
release_tty -> tty_driver_remove_tty -> gsmtty_remove -> dlci_put -> tty_port_destructor (WARN_ON(port->itty) and return directly)
|
tty->port->itty = NULL;
|
tty_kref_put ---> release_one_tty -> gsmtty_cleanup (added by our patch)
So our patch fix the memory leak by doing the cleanup work after tty core did.

commit 77bb3dfdc0d554befad58fdefbc41be5bc3ed38a upstream.
A non-percpu VIRQ (e.g., VIRQ_CONSOLE) may be freed on a different
VCPU than it is bound to. This can result in a race between
handle_percpu_irq() and removing the action in __free_irq() because
handle_percpu_irq() does not take desc->lock. The interrupt handler
sees a NULL action and oopses.
Only use the percpu chip/handler for per-CPU VIRQs (like VIRQ_TIMER).

commit 6befa9d883385c580369a2cc9e53fbf329771f6d upstream.
Do not probe all serial drivers by of_serial.c which are using
device_type = "serial"; property. Only drivers which have valid
compatible strings listed in the driver should be probed.
When PORT_UNKNOWN is setup probe will fail anyway.
Arnd quotation about driver historical background:
"when I wrote that driver initially, the idea was that it would
get used as a stub to hook up all other serial drivers but after
that, the common code learned to create platform devices from DT"
This patch fix the problem with on the system with xilinx_uartps and
16550a where of_serial failed to register for xilinx_uartps and because
of irq_dispose_mapping() removed irq_desc. Then when xilinx_uartps was asking
for irq with request_irq() EINVAL is returned.

commit fb5ef9e7da39968fec6d6f37f20a23d23740c75e upstream.
In canon mode, the read buffer head will advance over the buffer tail
if the input > 4095 bytes without receiving a line termination char.
Discard additional input until a line termination is received.
Before evaluating for overflow, the 'room' value is normalized for
I_PARMRK and 1 byte is reserved for line termination (even in !icanon
mode, in case the mode is switched). The following table shows the
transform:
actual buffer | 'room' value before overflow calc
space avail | !I_PARMRK | I_PARMRK
--------------------------------------------------
0 | -1 | -1
1 | 0 | 0
2 | 1 | 0
3 | 2 | 0
4+ | 3 | 1
When !icanon or when icanon and the read buffer contains newlines,
normalized 'room' values of -1 and 0 are clamped to 0, and
'overflow' is 0, so read_head is not adjusted and the input i/o loop
exits (setting no_room if called from flush_to_ldisc()). No input
is discarded since the reader does have input available to read
which ensures forward progress.
When icanon and the read buffer does not contain newlines and the
normalized 'room' value is 0, then overflow and room are reset to 1,
so that the i/o loop will process the next input char normally
(except for parity errors which are ignored). Thus, erasures, signalling
chars, 7-bit mode, etc. will continue to be handled properly.
If the input char processed was not a line termination char, then
the canon_head index will not have advanced, so the normalized 'room'
value will now be -1 and 'overflow' will be set, which indicates the
read_head can safely be reset, effectively erasing the last char
processed.
If the input char processed was a line termination, then the
canon_head index will have advanced, so 'overflow' is cleared to 0,
the read_head is not reset, and 'room' is cleared to 0, which exits
the i/o loop (because the reader now have input available to read
which ensures forward progress).
Note that it is possible for a line termination to be received, and
for the reader to copy the line to the user buffer before the
input i/o loop is ready to process the next input char. This is
why the i/o loop recomputes the room/overflow state with every
input char while handling overflow.
Finally, if the input data was processed without receiving
a line termination (so that overflow is still set), the pty
driver must receive a write wakeup. A pty writer may be waiting
to write more data in n_tty_write() but without unthrottling
here that wakeup will not arrive, and forward progress will halt.
(Normally, the pty writer is woken when the reader reads data out
of the buffer and more space become available).

commit 8e4934c6d6c659e22b1b746af4196683e77ce6ca upstream.
When the receiver was enabled during startup, a character could
have been in the FIFO when the UART get initially used. The
driver configures the (receive) watermark level, and flushes the
FIFO. However, the receive flag (RDRF) could still be set at that
stage (as mentioned in the register description of UARTx_RWFIFO).
This leads to an interrupt which won't be handled properly in
interrupt mode: The receive interrupt function lpuart_rxint checks
the FIFO count, which is 0 at that point (due to the flush
during initialization). The problem does not manifest when using
DMA to receive characters.
Fix this situation by explicitly read the status register, which
leads to clearing of the RDRF flag. Due to the flush just after
the status flag read, a explicit data read is not to required.

commit f0bf0bd07943bfde8f5ac39a32664810a379c7d3 upstream.
This problem was taken care of three times already in
* b0de59b5733d18b0d1974a060860a8b5c1b36a2e (TTY: do not update
atime/mtime on read/write),
* 37b7f3c76595e23257f61bd80b223de8658617ee (TTY: fix atime/mtime
regression), and
* b0b885657b6c8ef63a46bc9299b2a7715d19acde (tty: fix up atime/mtime
mess, take three)
But it still misses one point. As John Paul correctly points out, we
do not care about setting date. If somebody ever changes wall
time backwards (by mistake for example), tty timestamps are never
updated until the original wall time passes.
So check the absolute difference of times and if it large than "8
seconds or so", always update the time. That means we will update
immediatelly when changing time. Ergo, CAP_SYS_TIME can foul the
check, but it was always that way.
Thanks John for serving me this so nicely debugged.

commit 79fbf4a550ed6a22e1ae1516113e6c7fa5d56a53 upstream.
Fix overflow bug in tty_wait_until_sent on 64-bit machines, where an
infinite timeout (0) would be passed to the underlying tty-driver's
wait_until_sent-operation as a negative timeout (-1), causing it to
return immediately.
This manifests itself for example as tcdrain() returning immediately,
drivers not honouring the drain flags when setting terminal attributes,
or even dropped data on close as a requested infinite closing-wait
timeout would be ignored.
The first symptom was reported by Asier LLANO who noted that tcdrain()
returned prematurely when using the ftdi_sio usb-serial driver.
Fix this by passing 0 rather than MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT (LONG_MAX) to the
underlying tty driver.
Note that the serial-core wait_until_sent-implementation is not affected
by this bug due to a lucky chance (comparison to an unsigned maximum
timeout), and neither is the cyclades one that had an explicit check for
negative timeouts, but all other tty drivers appear to be affected.

commit 6fbb9bdf0f3fbe23aeff806489791aa876adaffb upstream.
-EDEFER error wasn't handle properly by atmel_serial_probe().
As an example, when atmel_serial_probe() is called for the first time, we pass
the test_and_set_bit() test to check whether the port has already been
initalized. Then we call atmel_init_port(), which may return -EDEFER, possibly
returned before by clk_get(). Consequently atmel_serial_probe() used to return
this error code WITHOUT clearing the port bit in the "atmel_ports_in_use" mask.
When atmel_serial_probe() was called for the second time, it used to fail on
the test_and_set_bit() function then returning -EBUSY.
When atmel_serial_probe() fails, this patch make it clear the port bit in the
"atmel_ports_in_use" mask, if needed, before returning the error code.

commit 37480a05685ed5b8e1b9bf5e5c53b5810258b149 upstream.
Commit 26df6d13406d1a5 ("tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE")
allows a process which has opened a pty master to send _any_ signal
to the process group of the pty slave. Although potentially
exploitable by a malicious program running a setuid program on
a pty slave, it's unknown if this exploit currently exists.

commit c4dc304677e8d566572c4738d95c48be150c6606 upstream.
Commit f95499c3030f ("n_tty: Don't wait for buffer work in read() loop")
introduces a race window where a pty master can be signalled that the pty
slave was closed before all the data that the slave wrote is delivered.
Commit f8747d4a466a ("tty: Fix pty master read() after slave closes") fixed the
problem in case of n_tty_read, but the problem still exists for n_tty_poll.
This can be seen by running 'for ((i=0; i<100;i++));do ./test.py ;done'
where test.py is:
import os, select, pty
(pid, pty_fd) = pty.fork()
if pid == 0:
os.write(1, 'This string should be received by parent')
else:
poller = select.epoll()
poller.register( pty_fd, select.EPOLLIN )
ready = poller.poll( 1 * 1000 )
for fd, events in ready:
if not events & select.EPOLLIN:
print 'missed POLLIN event'
else:
print os.read(fd, 100)
poller.close()
The string from the slave is missed several times.
This patch takes the same approach as the fix for read and special cases
this condition for poll.
Tested on 3.16.

commit 8bfbe2de769afda051c56aba5450391670e769fc upstream.
Commit 19e2ad6a09f0c06dbca19c98e5f4584269d913dd ("n_tty: Remove overflow
tests from receive_buf() path") moved the increment of read_head into
the arguments list of read_buf_addr(). Function calls represent a
sequence point in C. Therefore read_head is incremented before the
character c is placed in the buffer. Since the circular read buffer is
a lock-less design since commit 6d76bd2618535c581f1673047b8341fd291abc67
("n_tty: Make N_TTY ldisc receive path lockless"), this creates a race
condition that leads to communication errors.
This patch modifies the code to increment read_head _after_ the data
is placed in the buffer and thus fixes the race for non-SMP machines.
To fix the problem for SMP machines, memory barriers must be added in
a separate patch.

commit 37b164578826406a173ca7c20d9ba7430134d23e upstream.
Kernel oops can cause the tty to be unreleaseable (for example, if
n_tty_read() crashes while on the read_wait queue). This will cause
tty_release() to endlessly loop without sleeping.
Use a killable sleep timeout which grows by 2n+1 jiffies over the interval
[0, 120 secs.) and then jumps to forever (but still killable).
NB: killable just allows for the task to be rewoken manually, not
to be terminated.

commit 547039ec502076e60034eeb79611df3433a99b7d upstream.
uart_get_baud_rate() will return baud == 0 if the max rate is set
to the "magic" 38400 rate and the SPD_* flags are also specified.
On the first iteration, if the current baud rate is higher than the
max, the baud rate is clamped at the max (which in the degenerate
case is 38400). On the second iteration, the now-"magic" 38400 baud
rate selects the possibly higher alternate baud rate indicated by
the SPD_* flag. Since only two loop iterations are performed, the
loop is exited, a kernel WARNING is generated and a baud rate of
0 is returned.
Reproducible with:
setserial /dev/ttyS0 spd_hi base_baud 38400
Only perform the "magic" 38400 -> SPD_* baud transform on the first
loop iteration, which prevents the degenerate case from recognizing
the clamped baud rate as the "magic" 38400 value.

When a tty is opened for the serial console, the termios c_cflag
settings are inherited from the console line settings.
However, if the tty is subsequently closed, the termios settings
are lost. This results in a garbled console if the console is later
suspended and resumed.
Preserve the termios c_cflag for the serial console when the tty
is shutdown; this reflects the most recent line settings.

commit 66528f90669691c85c73bea4f0c9f4a5857c4cab upstream.
If INPCK is not set, input parity detection should be disabled. This means
parity errors should not be received from the tty driver, and the data
received should be treated normally.
SUS v3, 11.2.2, General Terminal Interface - Input Modes, states:
"If INPCK is set, input parity checking shall be enabled. If INPCK is
not set, input parity checking shall be disabled, allowing output parity
generation without input parity errors. Note that whether input parity
checking is enabled or disabled is independent of whether parity detection
is enabled or disabled (see Control Modes). If parity detection is enabled
but input parity checking is disabled, the hardware to which the terminal
is connected shall recognize the parity bit, but the terminal special file
shall not check whether or not this bit is correctly set."
Ignore parity errors reported by the tty driver when INPCK is not set, and
handle the received data normally.

commit ef8b9ddcb45fa3b1e11acd72be2398001e807d14 upstream.
If IGNBRK is set without either BRKINT or PARMRK set, some uart
drivers send a 0x00 byte for BREAK without the TTYBREAK flag to the
line discipline, when it should send either nothing or the TTYBREAK flag
set. This happens because the read_status_mask masks out the BI
condition, which uart_insert_char() then interprets as a normal 0x00 byte.
SUS v3 is clear regarding the meaning of IGNBRK; Section 11.2.2, General
Terminal Interface - Input Modes, states:
"If IGNBRK is set, a break condition detected on input shall be ignored;
that is, not put on the input queue and therefore not read by any
process."
Fix read_status_mask to include the BI bit if IGNBRK is set; the
lsr status retains the BI bit if a BREAK is recv'd, which is
subsequently ignored in uart_insert_char() when masked with the
ignore_status_mask.

commit d758c9c1b36b4d9a141c2146c70398d756167ed1 upstream.
The lack of pm_runtime_resume handling for the device state leads into
device wake-up interrupts not working after a while for runtime PM.
Also, serial-omap is confused about the use of device_may_wakeup.
The checks for device_may_wakeup should only be done for suspend and
resume, not for pm_runtime_suspend and pm_runtime_resume. The wake-up
events for PM runtime should always be enabled.
The lack of pm_runtime_resume handling leads into device wake-up
interrupts not working after a while for runtime PM.
Rather than try to patch over the issue of adding complex tests to
the pm_runtime_resume, let's fix the issues properly:
1. Make serial_omap_enable_wakeup deal with all internal PM state
handling so we don't need to test for up->wakeups_enabled elsewhere.
Later on once omap3 boots in device tree only mode we can also
remove the up->wakeups_enabled flag and rely on the wake-up
interrupt enable/disable state alone.
2. Do the device_may_wakeup checks in suspend and resume only,
for runtime PM the wake-up events need to be always enabled.
3. Finally just call serial_omap_enable_wakeup and make sure we
call it also in pm_runtime_resume.
4. Note that we also have to use disable_irq_nosync as serial_omap_irq
calls pm_runtime_get_sync.

commit 4291086b1f081b869c6d79e5b7441633dc3ace00 upstream.
The tty atomic_write_lock does not provide an exclusion guarantee for
the tty driver if the termios settings are LECHO & !OPOST. And since
it is unexpected and not allowed to call TTY buffer helpers like
tty_insert_flip_string concurrently, this may lead to crashes when
concurrect writers call pty_write. In that case the following two
writers:
* the ECHOing from a workqueue and
* pty_write from the process
race and can overflow the corresponding TTY buffer like follows.
If we look into tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag, there is:
int space = __tty_buffer_request_room(port, goal, flags);
struct tty_buffer *tb = port->buf.tail;
...
memcpy(char_buf_ptr(tb, tb->used), chars, space);
...
tb->used += space;
so the race of the two can result in something like this:
A B
__tty_buffer_request_room
__tty_buffer_request_room
memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...)
tb->used += space;
memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...) ->BOOM
B's memcpy is past the tty_buffer due to the previous A's tb->used
increment.
Since the N_TTY line discipline input processing can output
concurrently with a tty write, obtain the N_TTY ldisc output_lock to
serialize echo output with normal tty writes. This ensures the tty
buffer helper tty_insert_flip_string is not called concurrently and
everything is fine.
Note that this is nicely reproducible by an ordinary user using
forkpty and some setup around that (raw termios + ECHO). And it is
present in kernels at least after commit
d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc (pty: Rework the pty layer to
use the normal buffering logic) in 2.6.31-rc3.

commit 62a0d8d7c2b29f92850e4ee3c38e5dfd936e92b2 upstream.
Commit 6a20dbd6caa2358716136144bf524331d70b1e03,
"tty: Fix race condition between __tty_buffer_request_room and flush_to_ldisc"
correctly identifies an unsafe race condition between
__tty_buffer_request_room() and flush_to_ldisc(), where the consumer
flush_to_ldisc() prematurely advances the head before consuming the
last of the data committed. For example:
CPU 0 | CPU 1
__tty_buffer_request_room | flush_to_ldisc
... | ...
| count = head->commit - head->read
n = tty_buffer_alloc() |
b->commit = b->used |
b->next = n |
| if (!count) /* T */
| if (head->next == NULL) /* F */
| buf->head = head->next
In this case, buf->head has been advanced but head->commit may have
been updated with a new value.
Instead of reintroducing an unnecessary lock, fix the race locklessly.
Read the commit-next pair in the reverse order of writing, which guarantees
the commit value read is the latest value written if the head is
advancing.

commit f76a1cbed18c86e2d192455f0daebb48458965f3 upstream.
Commit 3e6c6f630a5282df8f3393a59f10eb9c56536d23 ("Delay creation of
khcvd thread") moved the call of hvc_init from being a device_initcall
into hvc_alloc, and used a non-null hvc_driver as indication of whether
hvc_init had already been called.
The problem with this is that hvc_driver is only assigned a value
at the bottom of hvc_init, and so there is a window where multiple
hvc_alloc calls can be in progress at the same time and hence try
and call hvc_init multiple times. Previously the use of device_init
guaranteed that hvc_init was only called once.
This manifests itself as sporadic instances of two hvc_init calls
racing each other, and with the loser of the race getting -EBUSY
from tty_register_driver() and hence that virtual console fails:
Couldn't register hvc console driver
virtio-ports vport0p1: error -16 allocating hvc for port
Here we add an atomic_t to guarantee we'll never run hvc_init twice.

commit a9c3f68f3cd8d55f809fbdb0c138ed061ea1bd25 upstream.
The user-settable knob, low_latency, has been the source of
several BUG reports which stem from flush_to_ldisc() running
in interrupt context. Since 3.12, which added several sleeping
locks (termios_rwsem and buf->lock) to the input processing path,
the frequency of these BUG reports has increased.
Note that changes in 3.12 did not introduce this regression;
sleeping locks were first added to the input processing path
with the removal of the BKL from N_TTY in commit
a88a69c91256418c5907c2f1f8a0ec0a36f9e6cc,
'n_tty: Fix loss of echoed characters and remove bkl from n_tty'
and later in commit 38db89799bdf11625a831c5af33938dcb11908b6,
'tty: throttling race fix'. Since those changes, executing
flush_to_ldisc() in interrupt_context (ie, low_latency set), is unsafe.
However, since most devices do not validate if the low_latency
setting is appropriate for the context (process or interrupt) in
which they receive data, some reports are due to misconfiguration.
Further, serial dma devices for which dma fails, resort to
interrupt receiving as a backup without resetting low_latency.
Historically, low_latency was used to force wake-up the reading
process rather than wait for the next scheduler tick. The
effect was to trim multiple milliseconds of latency from
when the process would receive new data.
Recent tests [1] have shown that the reading process now receives
data with only 10's of microseconds latency without low_latency set.
Remove the low_latency rx steering from tty_flip_buffer_push();
however, leave the knob as an optional hint to drivers that can
tune their rx fifos and such like. Cleanup stale code comments
regarding low_latency.
