Merge 5.16-rc6 into tty-next

syzbot is reporting that an unprivileged user who logged in from tty
console can crash the system using a reproducer shown below [1], for
n_hdlc_tty_wakeup() is synchronously calling n_hdlc_send_frames().
----------
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
const int disc = 0xd;
ioctl(1, TIOCSETD, &disc);
while (1) {
ioctl(1, TCXONC, 0);
write(1, "", 1);
ioctl(1, TCXONC, 1); /* Kernel panic - not syncing: scheduling while atomic */
}
}
----------
Linus suspected that "struct tty_ldisc"->ops->write_wakeup() must not
sleep, and Jiri confirmed it from include/linux/tty_ldisc.h. Thus, defer
n_hdlc_send_frames() from n_hdlc_tty_wakeup() to a WQ context like
net/nfc/nci/uart.c does.

There is no reason to pass the ldisc number to tty_register_ldisc
separately. Just set it in the already defined tty_ldisc_ops in all the

This simplifies tty_register_ldisc a bit too (no need to set the num
member there).

The tty line discipline .read() function was passed the final user
pointer destination as an argument, which doesn't match the 'write()'
function, and makes it very inconvenient to do a splice method for
ttys.
This is a conversion to use a kernel buffer instead.
NOTE! It does this by passing the tty line discipline ->read() function
an additional "cookie" to fill in, and an offset into the cookie data.
The line discipline can fill in the cookie data with its own private
information, and then the reader will repeat the read until either the
cookie is cleared or it runs out of data.
The only real user of this is N_HDLC, which can use this to handle big
packets, even if the kernel buffer is smaller than the whole packet.

These strings were put aside from prints to save some bytes after module
load or when built-in -- they were freed after module load (__init ones) or
when the driver is selected as built-in (__exit ones).
The savings are negligible, but the code readability is worse by the
order of magnitude. So put the strings where they belong. Note that it
also used to make little sense putting const data in .data (the __exit
case).
While at it, switch to pr_info, pr_err, not using the KERN_INFO and _ERR
directly.

Old code in the kernel uses 1-byte and 0-byte arrays to indicate the
presence of a "variable length array":
struct something {
int length;
u8 data[1];
};
struct something *instance;
instance = kmalloc(sizeof(*instance) + size, GFP_KERNEL);
instance->length = size;
memcpy(instance->data, source, size);
There is also 0-byte arrays. Both cases pose confusion for things like
sizeof(), CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE, etc.[1] Instead, the preferred mechanism
to declare variable-length types such as the one above is a flexible array
member[2] which need to be the last member of a structure and empty-sized:
struct something {
int stuff;
u8 data[];
};
Also, by making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertenly introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Lastly, make use of the struct_size() helper to safely calculate the
allocation size for instances of struct n_hdlc_buf and avoid any potential
type mistakes[4][5].

Fix tty driver build on SPARC by not using __exitdata.
It appears that SPARC does not support section .exit.data.
Fixes these build errors:

In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch
cases where we are expecting to fall through.
This patch fixes the following warning:
drivers/tty/n_hdlc.c: In function ‘n_hdlc_tty_ioctl’:
drivers/tty/n_hdlc.c:775:3: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]
switch (arg) {
^~~~~~
drivers/tty/n_hdlc.c:782:2: note: here
default:
^~~~~~~
Warning level 3 was used: -Wimplicit-fallthrough=3
Notice that, in this particular case, the code comment is modified
in accordance with what GCC is expecting to find.
This patch is part of the ongoing efforts to enable
-Wimplicit-fallthrough.

Fix __might_sleep warning[1] in tty/n_hdlc.c read due to copy_to_user
call while current is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. This is a false positive
since the code path does not depend on current state remaining
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. The loop breaks out and sets TASK_RUNNING after
calling copy_to_user.
This patch supresses the warning by setting TASK_RUNNING before calling
copy_to_user.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

There might be situations where tty_ldisc_lock() has blocked, but there
is already IO on tty and it prevents line discipline changes.
It might theoretically turn into dead-lock.
Basically, provide more priority to pending tty_ldisc_lock() than to
servicing reads/writes over tty.
User-visible issue was reported by Mikulas where on pa-risc with
Debian 5 reboot took either 80 seconds, 3 minutes or 3:25 after proper
locking in tty_reopen().

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:
for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all tty files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.
