commit c49436b657 upstream.
When configured with UART_16550_COMPATIBLE=NO or in versions prior to
the introduction of this option, the Designware UART will ignore writes
to the LCR if the UART is busy. The current workaround saves a copy of
the last written LCR and re-writes it in the ISR for a special interrupt
that is raised when a write was ignored.
Unfortunately, interrupts are typically disabled prior to performing a
sequence of register writes that include the LCR so the point at which
the retry occurs is too late. An example is serial8250_do_set_termios()
where an ignored LCR write results in the baud divisor not being set and
instead a garbage character is sent out the transmitter.
Furthermore, since serial_port_out() offers no way to indicate failure,
a serious effort must be made to ensure that the LCR is actually updated
before returning back to the caller. This is difficult, however, as a
UART that was busy during the first attempt is likely to still be busy
when a subsequent attempt is made unless some extra action is taken.
This updated workaround reads back the LCR after each write to confirm
that the new value was accepted by the hardware. Should the hardware
ignore a write, the TX/RX FIFOs are cleared and the receive buffer read
before attempting to rewrite the LCR out of the hope that doing so will
force the UART into an idle state. While this may seem unnecessarily
aggressive, writes to the LCR are used to change the baud rate, parity,
stop bit, or data length so the data that may be lost is likely not
important. Admittedly, this is far from ideal but it seems to be the
best that can be done given the hardware limitations.
Lastly, the revised workaround doesn't touch the LCR in the ISR, so it
avoids the possibility of a "serial8250: too much work for irq" lock up.
This problem is rare in real situations but can be reproduced easily by
wiring up two UARTs and running the following commands.
# stty -F /dev/ttyS1 echo
# stty -F /dev/ttyS2 echo
# cat /dev/ttyS1 &
[1] 375
# echo asdf > /dev/ttyS1

commit 33acbb8269 upstream.
When a serial port is configured for RTS/CTS flow control, serial core
will disable the transmitter if it observes CTS is de-asserted. This is
perfectly reasonable and appropriate when the UART lacks the ability to
automatically perform CTS flow control.
However, if the UART hardware can manage flow control automatically, it
is important that software not get involved. When the DesignWare UART
enables 16C750 style auto-RTS/CTS it stops generating interrupts for
changes in CTS state so software mostly stays out of the way. However,
it does report the true state of CTS in the MSR so software may notice
it is de-asserted and respond by improperly disabling the transmitter.
Once this happens the transmitter will be blocked forever.
To avoid this situation, we simply lie to the 8250 and serial core by
reporting that CTS is asserted whenever auto-RTS/CTS mode is enabled.

commit 4291086b1f 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
d945cb9cce (pty: Rework the pty layer to
use the normal buffering logic) in 2.6.31-rc3.

commit f76a1cbed1 upstream.
Commit 3e6c6f630a ("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 723abd87f6 upstream.
The 'active' sysfs attribute should refer to the currently active tty
devices the console is running on, not the currently active console. The
console structure doesn't refer to any device in sysfs, only the tty the
console is running on has. So we need to print out the tty names in
'active', not the console names.
There is one special-case, which is tty0. If the console is directed to
it, we want 'tty0' to show up in the file, so user-space knows that the
messages get forwarded to the active VT. The ->device() callback would
resolve tty0, though. Hence, treat it special and don't call into the VT
layer to resolve it (plymouth is known to depend on it).

The "runtime idle" helper routine, rpm_idle(), currently ignores
return values from .runtime_idle() callbacks executed by it.
However, it turns out that many subsystems use
pm_generic_runtime_idle() which checks the return value of the
driver's callback and executes pm_runtime_suspend() for the device
unless that value is not 0. If that logic is moved to rpm_idle()
instead, pm_generic_runtime_idle() can be dropped and its users
will not need any .runtime_idle() callbacks any more.
Moreover, the PCI, SCSI, and SATA subsystems' .runtime_idle()
routines, pci_pm_runtime_idle(), scsi_runtime_idle(), and
ata_port_runtime_idle(), respectively, as well as a few drivers'
ones may be simplified if rpm_idle() calls rpm_suspend() after 0 has
been returned by the .runtime_idle() callback executed by it.
To reduce overall code bloat, make the changes described above.

commit 3ac06b9056 upstream.
3GPP TS 07.10 states in section 5.4.6.3.7:
"The length byte contains the value 2 or 3 ... depending on the break
signal." The break byte is optional and if it is sent, the length is
3. In fact the driver was not able to work with modems that send this
break byte in their modem status control message. If the modem just
sends the break byte if it is really set, then weird things might
happen.
The code for deconding the modem status to the internal linux
presentation in gsm_process_modem has already a big comment about
this 2 or 3 byte length thing and it is already able to decode the
brk, but the code calling the gsm_process_modem function in
gsm_control_modem does not encode it and hand it over the right way.
This patch fixes this.
Without this fix if the modem sends the brk byte in it's modem status
control message the driver will hang when opening a muxed channel.

commit 3685f19e07 upstream.
Tegra chips have 4 or 5 identical UART modules embedded. UARTs C..E have
their MODEM-control signals tied off to a static state. However UARTs A
and B can optionally route those signals to/from package pins, depending
on the exact pinmux configuration.
When these signals are not routed to package pins, false interrupts may
trigger either temporarily, or permanently, all while not showing up in
the IIR; it will read as NO_INT. This will eventually lead to the UART
IRQ being disabled due to unhandled interrupts. When this happens, the
kernel may print e.g.:
irq 68: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
In order to prevent this, enable UART_BUG_NOMSR. This prevents
UART_IER_MSI from being enabled, which prevents the false interrupts
from triggering.
In practice, this is not needed under any of the following conditions:
* On Tegra chips after Tegra30, since the HW bug has apparently been
fixed.
* On UARTs C..E since their MODEM control signals are tied to the correct
static state which doesn't trigger the issue.
* On UARTs A..B if the MODEM control signals are routed out to package
pins, since they will then carry valid signals.
However, we ignore these exceptions for now, since they are only relevant
if a board actually hooks up more than a 4-wire UART, and no currently
supported board does this. If we ever support a board that does, we can
refine the algorithm that enables UART_BUG_NOMSR to take those exceptions
into account, and/or read a flag from DT/... that indicates that the
board has hooked up and pinmux'd more than a 4-wire UART.

commit 0cc7c6c791 upstream.
Interrupts were being cleaned up late in the shutdown handler, it is possible
that an interrupt can occur and schedule a tasklet that runs after the port is
cleaned up. There is a null dereference due to this race condition with the

commit fe43390702 upstream.
When the pl011 is being used for a console, pl011_console_write forces
the control register (CR) to enable the UART for transmission and then
restores this to the original value afterwards. It does this while
holding the port lock.
Unfortunately, when the uart is started or shutdown - say in response to
userland using the serial device for a terminal - then this updates the
control register without any locking.
This means we can have
pl011_console_write Save CR
pl011_startup Initialise CR, e.g. enable receive
pl011_console_write Restore old CR with receive not enabled
this result is a serial port which doesn't respond to any input.
A similar race in reverse could happen when the device is shutdown.
We can fix these problems by taking the port lock when updating CR.

commit dc1dc2f8a5 upstream.
When booting a multi-platform m68k kernel on a non-Mac with "console=ttyS0"
on the kernel command line, it crashes with:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address (null)
Oops: 00000000
PC: [<0013ad28>] __pmz_startup+0x32/0x2a0
...
Call Trace: [<002c5d3e>] pmz_console_setup+0x64/0xe4
The normal tty driver doesn't crash, because init_pmz() checks
pmz_ports_count again after calling pmz_probe().
In the serial console initialization path, pmz_console_init() doesn't do
this, causing the driver to crash later.
Add a check for pmz_ports_count to fix this.
