change semantics of ldisc ->compat_ioctl()

2018-10-13T04:50:53+00:00

First of all, make it return int.  Returning long when native method
had never allowed that is ridiculous and inconvenient.

More importantly, change the caller; if ldisc ->compat_ioctl() is NULL
or returns -ENOIOCTLCMD, tty_compat_ioctl() will try to feed cmd and
compat_ptr(arg) to ldisc's native ->ioctl().

That simplifies ->compat_ioctl() instances quite a bit - they only
need to deal with ioctls that are neither generic tty ones (those
would get shunted off to tty_ioctl()) nor simple compat pointer ones.

Note that something like TCFLSH won't reach ->compat_ioctl(),
even if ldisc ->ioctl() does handle it - it will be recognized
earlier and passed to tty_ioctl() (and ultimately - ldisc ->ioctl()).

For many ldiscs it means that NULL ->compat_ioctl() does the
right thing.  Those where it won't serve (see e.g. n_r3964.c) are
also easily dealt with - we need to handle the numeric-argument
ioctls (calling the native instance) and, if such would exist,
the ioctls that need layout conversion, etc.

All in-tree ldiscs dealt with.

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

  PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*'
  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

Input: serio - add hangup support

2016-09-21T14:57:11+00:00

The Pulse-Eight USB CEC adapter is a usb device that shows up as a ttyACM0
device.  It requires that you run inputattach in order to communicate with
it via serio.

This all works well, but it would be nice to have a udev rule to
automatically start inputattach. That too works OK, but the problem comes
when the USB device is unplugged: the tty hangup is never handled by the
serio framework so the inputattach utility never exits and you have to kill
it manually.

By adding this hangup callback the inputattach utility now properly exits
as soon as the USB device is unplugged.

The udev rule I used on my Debian sid system is:

SUBSYSTEM=="tty", KERNEL=="ttyACM[0-9]*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2548", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1002", ACTION=="add", TAG+="systemd", ENV{SYSTEMD_WANTS}+="pulse8-cec-inputattach@%k.service"

And /etc/systemd/system/pulse8-cec-inputattach@.service is as follows:

===============================================================
[Unit]
Description=inputattach for pulse8-cec device on %I

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/inputattach --pulse8-cec /dev/%I
KillMode=process

tty: remove buf parameter from tty_name()

2015-05-06T20:26:57+00:00

tty_name no longer uses the buf parameter, so remove it along with all
the 64 byte stack buffers that used to be passed in.

Mostly generated by the coccinelle script

@depends on patch@
identifier buf;
constant C;
expression tty;
@@
- char buf[C];
  <+...
- tty_name(tty, buf)
+ tty_name(tty)
  ...+>

allmodconfig compiles, so I'm fairly confident the stack buffers
weren't used for other purposes as well.

Input: serport - add compat handling for SPIOCSTYPE ioctl

2014-09-10T17:27:42+00:00

When running a 32-bit inputattach utility in a 64-bit system, there will be
error code "inputattach: can't set device type". This is caused by the
serport device driver not supporting compat_ioctl, so that SPIOCSTYPE ioctl
fails.

tty: Always handle NULL flag ptr

2013-12-09T00:56:05+00:00

Most line disciplines already handle the undocumented NULL flag
ptr in their .receive_buf method; however, several don't.

Document the NULL flag ptr, and correct handling in the
N_MOUSE, N_GSM0710 and N_R394 line disciplines.

Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received"

2011-06-03T21:33:24+00:00

This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c.

It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.

It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").

It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.

And it didn't actually work at all.  BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
  "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
   server for me, possibly related to PTYs.  For example, cat'ing a
   large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
   loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
   data in the quoted bits further down).

   ...

   Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
   flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
   the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
   forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
   process that could have emptied the PTY."

which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a.

Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received

2011-04-23T00:31:53+00:00

it makes it simpler to keep track of the amount of
bytes received and simplifies how flush_to_ldisc counts
the remaining bytes. It also fixes a bug of lost bytes
on n_tty when flushing too many bytes via the USB
serial gadget driver.
