2013-07-23tty: Only guarantee termios read safety for throttle/unthrottlePeter Hurley1-4/+4
No tty driver modifies termios during throttle() or unthrottle(). Therefore, only read safety is required. However, tty_throttle_safe and tty_unthrottle_safe must still be mutually exclusive; introduce throttle_mutex for that purpose.

2013-07-23tty: Convert termios_mutex to termios_rwsemPeter Hurley1-45/+45
termios is commonly accessed unsafely (especially by N_TTY) because the existing mutex forces exclusive access. Convert existing usage. Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2013-03-18tty: Fix recursive deadlock in tty_perform_flush()Peter Hurley1-9/+19
tty_perform_flush() can deadlock when called while holding a line discipline reference. By definition, all ldisc drivers hold a ldisc reference, so calls originating from ldisc drivers must not block for a ldisc reference. The deadlock can occur when: CPU 0 | CPU 1 | tty_ldisc_ref(tty) | .... | <line discipline halted> tty_ldisc_ref_wait(tty) | | CPU 0 cannot progess because it cannot obtain an ldisc reference with the line discipline has been halted (thus no new references are granted). CPU 1 cannot progress because an outstanding ldisc reference has not been released. An in-tree call-tree audit of tty_perform_flush() [1] shows 5 ldisc drivers calling tty_perform_flush() indirectly via n_tty_ioctl_helper() and 2 ldisc drivers calling directly. A single tty driver safely uses the function. [1] Recursive usage: /* These functions are line discipline ioctls and thus * recursive wrt line discipline references */ tty_perform_flush() - ./drivers/tty/tty_ioctl.c n_tty_ioctl_helper() hci_uart_tty_ioctl(default) - drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c (N_HCI) n_hdlc_tty_ioctl(default) - drivers/tty/n_hdlc.c (N_HDLC) gsmld_ioctl(default) - drivers/tty/n_gsm.c (N_GSM0710) n_tty_ioctl(default) - drivers/tty/n_tty.c (N_TTY) gigaset_tty_ioctl(default) - drivers/isdn/gigaset/ser-gigaset.c (N_GIGASET_M101) ppp_synctty_ioctl(TCFLSH) - drivers/net/ppp/pps_synctty.c ppp_asynctty_ioctl(TCFLSH) - drivers/net/ppp/ppp_async.c Non-recursive use: tty_perform_flush() - drivers/tty/tty_ioctl.c ipw_ioctl(TCFLSH) - drivers/tty/ipwireless/tty.c /* This function is a tty i/o ioctl method, which * is invoked by tty_ioctl() */ Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2013-03-18TTY: do not warn about setting speed via SPD_*Jiri Slaby1-28/+0
The warning is there since 2.1.69 and we have not seen anybody reporting it in the past decade. Remove the warning now. tty_get_baud_rate can now be inline. This gives us one less EXPORT_SYMBOL.

2013-03-18tty: Add safe tty throttle/unthrottle functionsPeter Hurley1-0/+64
The tty driver can become stuck throttled due to race conditions between throttle and unthrottle, when the decision to throttle or unthrottle is conditional. The following example helps to illustrate the race: CPU 0 | CPU 1 | if (condition A) | | <processing such that A not true> | if (!condition A) | unthrottle() throttle() | | Note the converse is also possible; ie., CPU 0 | CPU 1 | | if (!condition A) <processing such that A true> | if (condition A) | throttle() | | unthrottle() | Add new throttle/unthrottle functions based on the familiar model of task state and schedule/wake. For example, while (1) { tty_set_flow_change(tty, TTY_THROTTLE_SAFE); if (!condition) break; if (!tty_throttle_safe(tty)) break; } __tty_set_flow_change(tty, 0); In this example, if an unthrottle occurs after the condition is evaluated but before tty_throttle_safe(), then tty_throttle_safe() will return non-zero, looping and forcing the re-evaluation of condition.

2013-02-04tty: set_termios/set_termiox should not return -EINTROleg Nesterov1-2/+2
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=904907 read command causes bash to abort with double free or corruption (out). A simple test-case from Roman: // Compile the reproducer and send sigchld ti that process. // EINTR occurs even if SA_RESTART flag is set. void handler(int sig) { } main() { struct sigaction act; act.sa_handler = handler; act.sa_flags = SA_RESTART; sigaction (SIGCHLD, &act, 0); struct termio ttp; ioctl(0, TCGETA, &ttp); while(1) { if (ioctl(0, TCSETAW, ttp) < 0) { if (errno == EINTR) { fprintf(stderr, "BUG!"); return(1); } } } } Change set_termios/set_termiox to return -ERESTARTSYS to fix this particular problem. I didn't dare to change other EINTR's in drivers/tty/, but they look equally wrong.

2013-01-18tty: Add driver unthrottle in ioctl(...,TCFLSH,..).Ilya Zykov1-2/+6
Regression 'tty: fix "IRQ45: nobody cared"' Regression commit 7b292b4bf9a9d6098440d85616d6ca4c608b8304 Function reset_buffer_flags() also invoked during the ioctl(...,TCFLSH,..). At the time of request we can have full buffers and throttled driver too. If we don't unthrottle driver, we can get forever throttled driver, because, after request, we will have empty buffers and throttled driver and there is no place to unthrottle driver. It simple reproduce with "pty" pair then one side sleep on tty->write_wait, and other side do ioctl(...,TCFLSH,..). Then there is no place to do writers wake up.

2012-07-16tty: move the termios object into the ttyAlan Cox1-62/+62

2011-10-18tty: Support compat_ioctl get/set termios_lockedThomas Meyer1-0/+17
When running a Fedora 15 (x86) on an x86_64 kernel, in the boot process plymouthd complains about those two missing ioctls: [ 2.581783] ioctl32(plymouthd:186): Unknown cmd fd(10) cmd(00005457){t:'T';sz:0} arg(ffb6a5d0) on /dev/tty1 [ 2.581803] ioctl32(plymouthd:186): Unknown cmd fd(10) cmd(00005456){t:'T';sz:0} arg(ffb6a680) on /dev/tty1 both ioctl functions work on the 'struct termios' resp. 'struct termios2', which has the same size (36 bytes resp. 44 bytes) on x86 and x86_64, so it's just a matter of converting the pointer from userland.

This basically encapsulates the small bit of locking knowledge needed. While we are at it make sure we blow up on any more abusers and unsafe misuses of ioctl for this kind of stuff. We change the function to return an argument as at some point it needs to honour the POSIX 'I asked for changes but got none of them' error reporting corner case.
