We're about to amend uart_get_rs485_mode() to support a GPIO pin for
rs485 bus termination. Retrieving the GPIO descriptor may fail, so
allow uart_get_rs485_mode() to return an errno and change all callers
to check for failure.
The GPIO descriptor is going to be stored in struct uart_port. Pass
that struct to uart_get_rs485_mode() in lieu of a struct device and
struct serial_rs485, both of which are directly accessible from struct
uart_port.
A few drivers call uart_get_rs485_mode() before setting the struct
device pointer in struct uart_port. Shuffle those calls around where
necessary.

If the call to uart_add_one_port() in serial8250_register_8250_port()
fails, a half-initialized entry in the serial_8250ports[] array is left
behind.
A subsequent reprobe of the same serial port causes that entry to be
reused. Because uart->port.dev is set, uart_remove_one_port() is called
for the half-initialized entry and bails out with an error message:
bcm2835-aux-uart 3f215040.serial: Removing wrong port: (null) != (ptrval)
The same happens on failure of mctrl_gpio_init() since commit
4a96895f74c9 ("tty/serial/8250: use mctrl_gpio helpers").
Fix by zeroing the uart->port.dev pointer in the probe error path.
The bug was introduced in v2.6.10 by historical commit befff6f5bf5f
("[SERIAL] Add new port registration/unregistration functions."):
https://git.kernel.org/tglx/history/c/befff6f5bf5f
The commit added an unconditional call to uart_remove_one_port() in
serial8250_register_port(). In v3.7, commit 835d844d1a28 ("8250_pnp:
do pnp probe before legacy probe") made that call conditional on
uart->port.dev which allows me to fix the issue by zeroing that pointer
in the error path. Thus, the present commit will fix the problem as far
back as v3.7 whereas still older versions need to also cherry-pick
835d844d1a28.

Doing any kind of power management for kernel console is really bad idea.
First of all, it runs in poll and atomic mode. This fact attaches a limitation
on the functions that might be called. For example, pm_runtime_get_sync() might
sleep and thus can't be used. This call needs, for example, to bring the device
to powered on state on the system, where the power on sequence may require
on-atomic operations, such as Intel Cherrytrail with ACPI enumerated UARTs.
That said, on ACPI enabled platforms it might even call firmware for a job.
On the other hand pm_runtime_get() doesn't guarantee that device will become
powered on fast enough.
Besides that, imagine the case when console is about to print a kernel Oops and
it's powered off. In such an emergency case calling the complex functions is
not the best what we can do, taking into consideration that user wants to see
at least something of the last kernel word before it passes away.
Here we modify the 8250 console code to prevent runtime power management.
Note, there is a behaviour change for OMAP boards. It will require to detach
kernel console to become idle.

Commit e490c9144cfa ("tty: Add software emulated RS485 support for 8250")
introduced support to use RTS as an rs485 Transmit Enable signal.
So far the only drivers taking advantage of it are 8250_omap.c and
8250_of.c.
We're about to make use of the feature in 8250_bcm2835aux.c as well.
The bcm2835aux differs from omap chips by inverting the meaning of RTS
in the MCR register. Moreover, omap achieves half-duplex mode by
disabling the RX interrupt and clearing the RX FIFO when TX stops.
The bcm2835aux requires disabling the receiver instead.
Support these behavioral differences by generalizing the rs485 emulation:
Introduce ->rs485_start_tx() and ->rs485_stop_tx() callbacks in struct
uart_8250_port, provide generic implementations containing the existing
code and use them as callbacks in 8250_omap.c and 8250_of.c.
start_tx_rs485() is idempotent in that it recognizes whether RTS is
already asserted. Achieve the same by introducing a tx_stopped flag in
struct uart_8250_em485. This may even perform a little better on arches
where memory access is faster than mmio access.

If the property "linux,rs485-enabled-at-boot-time" is present, invoke

The commit 54e53b2e8081
("tty: serial: 8250: pass IRQ shared flag to UART ports")
nicely explained the problem:
---8<---8<---
On some systems IRQ lines between multiple UARTs might be shared. If so, the
irqflags have to be configured accordingly. The reason is: The 8250 port startup
code performs IRQ tests *before* the IRQ handler for that particular port is
registered. This is performed in serial8250_do_startup(). This function checks
whether IRQF_SHARED is configured and only then disables the IRQ line while
testing.
This test is performed upon each open() of the UART device. Imagine two UARTs
share the same IRQ line: On is already opened and the IRQ is active. When the
second UART is opened, the IRQ line has to be disabled while performing IRQ
tests. Otherwise an IRQ might handler might be invoked, but the IRQ itself
cannot be handled, because the corresponding handler isn't registered,
yet. That's because the 8250 code uses a chain-handler and invokes the
corresponding port's IRQ handling routines himself.
Unfortunately this IRQF_SHARED flag isn't configured for UARTs probed via device
tree even if the IRQs are shared. This way, the actual and shared IRQ line isn't
disabled while performing tests and the kernel correctly detects a spurious
IRQ. So, adding this flag to the DT probe solves the issue.
Note: The UPF_SHARE_IRQ flag is configured unconditionally. Therefore, the
IRQF_SHARED flag can be set unconditionally as well.
Example stack trace by performing `echo 1 > /dev/ttyS2` on a non-patched system:
|irq 85: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
| [...]
|handlers:
|[<ffff0000080fc628>] irq_default_primary_handler threaded [<ffff00000855fbb8>] serial8250_interrupt
|Disabling IRQ #85
---8<---8<---
But unfortunately didn't fix the root cause. Let's try again here by moving
IRQ flag assignment from serial_link_irq_chain() to serial8250_do_startup().
This should fix the similar issue reported for 8250_pnp case.
Since this change we don't need to have custom solutions in 8250_aspeed_vuart
and 8250_of drivers, thus, drop them.

The SUPPORT_SYSRQ ifdeffery is not nice as:
- May create misunderstanding about sizeof(struct uart_port) between
different objects
- Prevents moving functions from serial_core.h
- Reduces readability (well, it's ifdeffery - it's hard to follow)
In order to remove SUPPORT_SYSRQ, has_sysrq variable has been added.
Initialise it in driver's probe and remove ifdeffery.
In contrast to 8250/8250_of, legacy_serial on powerpc does fill
(struct plat_serial8250_port). The reason is likely that it's done on
device_initcall(), not on probe. So, 8250_core is not yet probed.
Propagate value from platform_device on 8250 probe - in case powepc
legacy driver it's initialized on initcall, in case 8250_of it will be
initialized later on of_platform_serial_setup().

This patch permits the usage for GPIOs to control
the CTS/RTS/DTR/DSR/DCD/RI signals.
Changed by Stefan:
Only call mctrl_gpio_init(), if the device has no ACPI companion device
to not break existing ACPI based systems. Also only use the mctrl_gpio_
functions when "gpios" is available.
Use MSR / MCR <-> TIOCM wrapper functions.

When a serial port gets faulty or gets flooded with inputs, its interrupt
handler starts to work double time to get the characters to the workqueue
for the tty layer to handle them. When this busy time on the serial/tty
subsystem happens during boot, where it is also busy on the userspace
trying to initialise, some processes can continuously get preempted
and will be on hold until the interrupts subside.
The fix is to backoff on processing received characters for a specified
amount of time when an input overrun is seen (received a new character
before the previous one is processed). This only stops receive and will
continue to transmit characters to serial port. After the backoff period
is done, it receive will be re-enabled. This is optional and will only
be enabled by setting 'overrun-throttle-ms' in the dts.

The printk() in serial8250_interrupt() was once hidden behind a debug
macro in commit f4f653e9875e5 ("serial: 8250, disable "too much work"
messages") and reverted back in commit 12de375ec493a ("Revert "serial:
8250, disable "too much work" messages"").
This was introduced first in 0.99.13k with the "serial" driver itself
(and called pass_number with a limit of 64 and no print). In 1.1.13 it
was renamed to pass_counter and the printk was behind #if 0. In 1.1.94
the limit of 64 was increased to 256 and hidden behind
RS_ISR_PASS_LIMIT. With this change the #if 0 turned into #if 1. It
slowly become what we have today with a loop limit of 512.
Usually, that printk isn't hit. However on KVM with a busy UART and
overloaded host it might happen. It is also likely with threaded
interrupts and a task which preempts the interrupt handler.
If the UART has (legitimate) work to do and we break out of the loop,
nothing changes: the interrupt is most likely already pending in the
interrupt controller and we end up in the handler anyway. This printk is
hardly helping.
Older kernels also had a comment saying that a bad configuration might
lead to this but I don't see how that should happen because a wrongly
configured interrupt number would let the handler leave "early" with
IRQ_NONE and the spurious detected will handle that (weill since 2.6.11,
before that we had no spurious detector). In that case, we would never
loop that often here.
This loop looks like an optimisation in order to pull the bytes from the
FIFO which were received while we were already here instead of waiting
for the interrupt. This might have been a good idea while the CPUs were
slow and FIFOs small.
There are other serial driver in tree, like the amba-pl*, which also
have this kind of a loop but without the printk (and were based on this
driver).
Remove the printk which might trigger in otherwise valid situtations.

Since we have port name stored in struct uart_port, we better to use
that one instead of open coding.
This will make it one place source for easier maintenance or
modifications.
While here, replace printk_ratelimited(KERN_INFO ) by pr_info_ratelimited().
It seems last printk() call in 8250_port.c.

switched over, the TIMER_FUNC_TYPE cast is no longer needed,
so remove it. Conversion was done with the following scripts:
perl -pi -e 's|\(TIMER_FUNC_TYPE\)||g' \
$(git grep TIMER_FUNC_TYPE | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u)
perl -pi -e 's|\(TIMER_DATA_TYPE\)||g' \
$(git grep TIMER_DATA_TYPE | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u)
The now unused macros are also dropped from include/linux/timer.h.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all tty files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.
This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

Pull hw lockdown support from David Howells:
"Annotation of module parameters that configure hardware resources
including ioports, iomem addresses, irq lines and dma channels.
This allows a future patch to prohibit the use of such module
parameters to prevent that hardware from being abused to gain access
to the running kernel image as part of locking the kernel down under
UEFI secure boot conditions.
Annotations are made by changing:
module_param(n, t, p)
module_param_named(n, v, t, p)
module_param_array(n, t, m, p)
to:
module_param_hw(n, t, hwtype, p)
module_param_hw_named(n, v, t, hwtype, p)
module_param_hw_array(n, t, hwtype, m, p)
where the module parameter refers to a hardware setting
hwtype specifies the type of the resource being configured. This can
be one of:
ioport Module parameter configures an I/O port
iomem Module parameter configures an I/O mem address
ioport_or_iomem Module parameter could be either (runtime set)
irq Module parameter configures an I/O port
dma Module parameter configures a DMA channel
dma_addr Module parameter configures a DMA buffer address
other Module parameter configures some other value
Note that the hwtype is compile checked, but not currently stored (the
lockdown code probably won't require it). It is, however, there for
future use.
A bonus is that the hwtype can also be used for grepping.
The intention is for the kernel to ignore or reject attempts to set
annotated module parameters if lockdown is enabled. This applies to
options passed on the boot command line, passed to insmod/modprobe or
direct twiddling in /sys/module/ parameter files.
The module initialisation then needs to handle the parameter not being
set, by (1) giving an error, (2) probing for a value or (3) using a
reasonable default.
What I can't do is just reject a module out of hand because it may
take a hardware setting in the module parameters. Some important
modules, some ipmi stuff for instance, both probe for hardware and
allow hardware to be manually specified; if the driver is aborts with
any error, you don't get any ipmi hardware.
Further, trying to do this entirely in the module initialisation code
doesn't protect against sysfs twiddling.
[!] Note that in and of itself, this series of patches should have no
effect on the the size of the kernel or code execution - that is
left to a patch in the next series to effect. It does mark
annotated kernel parameters with a KERNEL_PARAM_FL_HWPARAM flag in
an already existing field"

When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to
prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image. Whilst this
includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent
access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a
device to access or modify the kernel image.
To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware
configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they
specify. The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can
skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down.
The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the
default values for those parameters is.
Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some
drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and
some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition
to manually coded parameters.
This patch annotates drivers in drivers/tty/.

Passing "serial" as name during request_irq() results in all serial port

This commit needs to be reverted because it prevents people from
using the serial console as a secondary console with input being
directed to tty0.
IOW, if you boot with console=ttyS0 console=tty0 then all kernels
prior to this commit will produce output on both ttyS0 and tty0
but input will only be taken from tty0. With this patch the serial
console will always be the primary console instead of tty0,
potentially preventing people from getting into their machines in
emergency situations.

CIR type serial ports aren't real serial ports.
This is just a way to prevent legacy 8250 serial
driver from probing and eventually binding some
resources.
Since in current state such ports aren't providing
any real functionality and it is not possible
to change their type via setserial/ioctl(TIOCSSERIAL)
(due to UPF_FIXED_PORT flag set on them)
it is simpler and cleaner to not register them at all
with serial core.
Print a short message in this case so it is known
to user what has happened.
This way checks for PORT_8250_CIR in serial port
callbacks can be removed too, since they won't
ever be called.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical
drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the
removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and
the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().
Summary:
- Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map.
This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page()
operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in
'struct block_device_operations').
For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes
from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device
memory will arrive in a later kernel.
- Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.
Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
- Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
- Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
- Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for
issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes"
