commiteb28168362upstream. The receive_buf tty-port callback should return the number of bytes accepted and must specifically never return a negative errno (or a value larger than the buffer size) to the tty layer. A serdev driver not providing a receive_buf callback would currently cause the flush_to_ldisc() worker to spin in a tight loop when the tty buffer pointers are incremented with -EINVAL (-22) after data has been received. A serdev driver occasionally returning a negative errno (or a too large byte count) could cause information leaks or crashes when accessing memory outside the tty buffers in consecutive callbacks.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
