sunsu: Fix panic in case of nonexistent port at "console=ttySY" cmdline option

2013-03-27T02:41:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit cb29529ea0030e60ef1bbbf8399a43d397a51526 ]

If a machine has X (X < 4) sunsu ports and cmdline
option "console=ttySY" is passed, where X < Y <= 4,
than the following panic happens:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference

TTY: do not reset master's packet mode

2013-03-27T02:37:45+00:00

commit b81273a132177edd806476b953f6afeb17b786d5 upstream.

Now that login from util-linux is forced to drop all references to a
TTY which it wants to hangup (to reach reference count 1) we are
seeing issues with telnet. When login closes its last reference to the
slave PTY, it also resets packet mode on the *master* side. And we
have a race here.

What telnet does is fork+exec of `login'. Then there are two
scenarios:
* `login' closes the slave TTY and resets thus master's packet mode,
  but even now telnet properly sets the mode, or
* `telnetd' sets packet mode on the master, `login' closes the slave
  TTY and resets master's packet mode.

The former case is OK. However the latter happens in much more cases,
by the order of magnitude to be precise. So when one tries to login to
such a messed telnet setup, they see the following:
inux login:
            ogin incorrect

Note the missing first letters -- telnet thinks it is still in the
packet mode, so when it receives "linux login" from `login', it
considers "l" as the type of the packet and strips it.

SuS does not mention how the implementation should behave. Both BSDs I
checked (Free and Net) do not reset the flag upon the last close.

By this I am resurrecting an old bug, see References. We are hitting
it regularly now, i.e. with updated util-linux, ergo login.

Here, I am changing a behavior introduced back in 2.1 times. It would
better have a long time testing before goes upstream.

tty: serial: fix typo "ARCH_S5P6450"

2013-03-20T15:03:34+00:00

commit 827aa0d36d486f359808c8fb931cf7a71011a09d upstream.

This could have been either ARCH_S5P64X0 or CPU_S5P6450. Looking at
commit 2555e663b367b8d555e76023f4de3f6338c28d6c ("ARM: S5P64X0: Add UART
serial support for S5P6450") - which added this typo - makes clear this
should be CPU_S5P6450.

Fix 4 port and add support for 8 port 'Unknown' PCI serial port cards

2013-03-20T15:03:34+00:00

commit d13402a4a944e72612a9ec5c9190e35717c02a9d upstream.

I've managed to find an 8 port version of the card 4 port card which was discussed here:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-serial&m=120760744205314&w=2

Looking back at that thread there were two issues in the original patch.

1) The I/O ports for the UARTs are within BAR2 not BAR0. This can been seen in the original post.
2) A serial quirk isn't needed as these cards have no memory in BAR0 which makes pci_plx9050_init just return.

This patch fixes the 4 port support to use BAR2, removes the bogus quirk and adds support for the 8 port card.

tty: Correct tty buffer flush.

2013-03-20T15:03:27+00:00

commit 64325a3be08d364a62ee8f84b2cf86934bc2544a upstream.

  The root of problem is carelessly zeroing pointer(in function __tty_buffer_flush()),
when another thread can use it. It can be cause of "NULL pointer dereference".
  Main idea of the patch, this is never free last (struct tty_buffer) in the active buffer.
Only flush the data for ldisc(buf->head->read = buf->head->commit).
At that moment driver can collect(write) data in buffer without conflict.
It is repeat behavior of flush_to_ldisc(), only without feeding data to ldisc.

8250: use correct value for PORT_BRCM_TRUMANAGE

2013-03-06T03:24:25+00:00

When backporting commit ebebd49a8eab ('8250/16?50: Add support for
Broadcom TruManage redirected serial port') I took the next
available port type number for PORT_BRCM_TRUMANAGE (22).

However, the 8250 port type numbers are exposed to userland through
the TIOC{G,S}SERIAL ioctls and so must remain stable.  Redefine
PORT_BRCM_TRUMANAGE as 25, matching mainline as of commit
85f024401bf807.

This leaves port types 22-24 within the valid range for 8250 but not
implemented there.  Change serial8250_verify_port() to specifically
reject these and change serial8250_type() to return "unknown" for them
(though I'm not sure why it would ever see them).

fb: Yet another band-aid for fixing lockdep mess

2013-03-06T03:23:52+00:00

commit e93a9a868792ad71cdd09d75e5a02d8067473c4e upstream.

I've still got lockdep warnings even after Alan's patch, and it seems that
yet more band aids are required to paper over similar paths for
unbind_con_driver() and unregister_con_driver().  After this hack, lockdep
warnings are finally gone.

fb: rework locking to fix lock ordering on takeover

2013-03-06T03:23:52+00:00

commit 50e244cc793d511b86adea24972f3a7264cae114 upstream.

Adjust the console layer to allow a take over call where the caller
already holds the locks.  Make the fb layer lock in order.

This is partly a band aid, the fb layer is terminally confused about the
locking rules it uses for its notifiers it seems.
