tty: serial_core: fix NULL struct tty pointer access in uart_write_wakeup
Since commit 761ed4a94582ab29 ("tty: serial_core: convert uart_close to use tty_port_close"), the serial console is broken on various systems and typing "reboot" splats the following on the serial console: INIT: Sending p[ 427.863916] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000001e0 [ 427.885156] IP: [] tty_wakeup+0xc/0x70 [ 427.898337] PGD 0 [ 427.902051] [ 427.907498] Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [ 427.917635] Modules linked in: nfsv3 nfs_acl nfs fscache lockd sunrpc grace edd af_packet cpufreq_conservative cpufreq_userspace cpufreq_powersave fuse loop md_mod dm_mod joydev hid_generic usbhid ipmi_ssif ohci_pci ohci_hcd ehci_pci ehci_hcd e1000e ptp firewire_ohci edac_core pps_core tpm_infineon sp5100_tco firewire_core acpi_cpufreq serio_raw pcspkr fjes usbcore shpchp edac_mce_amd tpm_tis ipmi_si tpm_tis_core i2c_piix4 k10temp sg ipmi_msghandler tpm sr_mod button cdrom kvm_amd kvm irqbypass crc_itu_t ast ttm drm_kms_helper drm fb_sys_fops sysimgblt sysfillrect syscopyarea i2c_algo_bit scsi_dh_rdac scsi_dh_alua scsi_dh_emc scsi_dh_hp_sw ata_generic pata_atiixp [ 428.054179] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.9.0-rc1-1.g73e3f23-default #1 [ 428.072868] Hardware name: System manufacturer System Product Name/KGP(M)E-D16, BIOS 0902 12/03/2010 [ 428.094755] task: ffffffffa2c0d500 task.stack: ffffffffa2c00000 [ 428.109717] RIP: 0010:[] [] tty_wakeup+0xc/0x70 [ 428.128407] RSP: 0018:ffff9a1a5fc03df8 EFLAGS: 00010086 [ 428.142184] RAX: ffff9a1857258000 RBX: ffffffffa3050ea0 RCX: 0000000000000000 [ 428.159649] RDX: 000000000000001b RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000000 [ 428.177109] RBP: ffff9a1a5fc03e08 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 428.194547] R10: 0000000000021c77 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff9a1857258000 [ 428.212002] R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000020 R15: 0000000000000020 [ 428.229481] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff9a1a5fc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 428.248938] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 428.263726] CR2: 00000000000001e0 CR3: 0000000390c06000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 [ 428.281331] Stack: [ 428.288696] ffffffffa3050ea0 ffff9a1857258000 ffff9a1a5fc03e18 ffffffffa24e0ab1 [ 428.307064] ffff9a1a5fc03e40 ffffffffa24e8865 ffffffffa3050ea0 00000000000000c2 [ 428.325456] 0000000000000046 ffff9a1a5fc03e78 ffffffffa24e8a5f ffffffffa3050ea0 [ 428.343905] Call Trace: [ 428.352319] [ 428.356216] [] uart_write_wakeup+0x21/0x30 The problem is for console ports, the serial port is not shutdown and interrupts may fire after the struct tty is gone. Simply calling the tty_port helper tty_port_tty_wakeup instead of tty_wakeup directly will ensure there is a valid struct tty.
