Back when the line disciplines did their own direct user accesses, they
had to deal with the data copy possibly failing in the middle.
Now that the user copy is done by the tty_io.c code, that failure case
no longer exists.

Now that the ldisc read() function takes kernel pointers, it's fairly
straightforward to make the tty file operations use .read_iter() instead
of .read().
That automatically gives us vread() and friends, and also makes it
possible to do .splice_read() on ttys again.

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.

Currently, locking of ->session is very inconsistent; most places
protect it using the legacy tty mutex, but disassociate_ctty(),
__do_SAK(), tiocspgrp() and tiocgsid() don't.
Two of the writers hold the ctrl_lock (because they already need it for
->pgrp), but __proc_set_tty() doesn't do that yet.
On a PREEMPT=y system, an unprivileged user can theoretically abuse
this broken locking to read 4 bytes of freed memory via TIOCGSID if
tiocgsid() is preempted long enough at the right point. (Other things
might also go wrong, especially if root-only ioctls are involved; I'm
not sure about that.)
Change the locking on ->session such that:
- tty_lock() is held by all writers: By making disassociate_ctty()
hold it. This should be fine because the same lock can already be
taken through the call to tty_vhangup_session().
The tricky part is that we need to shorten the area covered by
siglock to be able to take tty_lock() without ugly retry logic; as
far as I can tell, this should be fine, since nothing in the
signal_struct is touched in the `if (tty)` branch.
- ctrl_lock is held by all writers: By changing __proc_set_tty() to
hold the lock a little longer.
- All readers that aren't holding tty_lock() hold ctrl_lock: By
adding locking to tiocgsid() and __do_SAK(), and expanding the area
covered by ctrl_lock in tiocspgrp().

tiocspgrp() takes two tty_struct pointers: One to the tty that userspace
passed to ioctl() (`tty`) and one to the TTY being changed (`real_tty`).
These pointers are different when ioctl() is called with a master fd.
To properly lock real_tty->pgrp, we must take real_tty->ctrl_lock.
This bug makes it possible for racing ioctl(TIOCSPGRP, ...) calls on
both sides of a PTY pair to corrupt the refcount of `struct pid`,
leading to use-after-free errors.

Enabling the lock dependency validator has revealed
that the way spinlocks are used in the IMX serial
port could result in a deadlock.
Specifically, imx_uart_int() acquires a spinlock
without disabling the interrupts, meaning that another
interrupt could come along and try to acquire the same
spinlock, potentially causing the two to wait for each
other indefinitely.
Use spin_lock_irqsave() instead to disable interrupts
upon acquisition of the spinlock.

Further there was only one user ever.
- Android's loadfont, busybox and console-tools only ever use OP_GET
and OP_SET
- fbset documentation only mentions the kernel cmdline font: option,
not anything else.
- systemd used OP_COPY before release 232 published in Nov 2016
Now unfortunately the crucial report seems to have gone down with
gmane, and the commit message doesn't say much. But the pull request
hints at OP_COPY being broken
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3651
So in other words, this never worked, and the only project which
foolishly every tried to use it, realized that rather quickly too.
Instead of trying to fix security issues here on dead code by adding
missing checks, fix the entire thing by removing the functionality.
Note that systemd code using the OP_COPY function ignored the return
value, so it doesn't matter what we're doing here really - just in
case a lone server somewhere happens to be extremely unlucky and
running an affected old version of systemd. The relevant code from
font_copy_to_all_vcs() in systemd was:
/* copy font from active VT, where the font was uploaded to */
cfo.op = KD_FONT_OP_COPY;
cfo.height = vcs.v_active-1; /* tty1 == index 0 */
(void) ioctl(vcfd, KDFONTOP, &cfo);
Note this just disables the ioctl, garbage collecting the now unused
callbacks is left for -next.

Some of the font tty ioctl's always used the current foreground VC for
their operations. Don't do that then.
This fixes a data race on fg_console.
Side note: both Michael Ellerman and Jiri Slaby point out that all these
ioctls are deprecated, and should probably have been removed long ago,
and everything seems to be using the KDFONTOP ioctl instead.
In fact, Michael points out that it looks like busybox's loadfont
program seems to have switched over to using KDFONTOP exactly _because_
of this bug (ahem.. 12 years ago ;-).

In commit 5ba1278787, we shuffled with the check of 'perm'. But my
brain somehow inverted the condition in 'do_unimap_ioctl' (I thought
it is ||, not &&), so GIO_UNIMAP stopped working completely.
Move the 'perm' checks back to do_unimap_ioctl and do them right again.
In fact, this reverts this part of code to the pre-5ba127878722 state.
Except 'perm' is now a bool.

Both read-side users of func_table/func_buf need locking. Without that,
one can easily confuse the code by repeatedly setting altering strings
like:
while (1)
for (a = 0; a < 2; a++) {
struct kbsentry kbs = {};
strcpy((char *)kbs.kb_string, a ? ".\n" : "88888\n");
ioctl(fd, KDSKBSENT, &kbs);
}
When that program runs, one can get unexpected output by holding F1
(note the unxpected period on the last line):
.
88888
.8888
So protect all accesses to 'func_table' (and func_buf) by preexisting
'func_buf_lock'.
It is easy in 'k_fn' handler as 'puts_queue' is expected not to sleep.
On the other hand, KDGKBSENT needs a local (atomic) copy of the string
because copy_to_user can sleep. Use already allocated, but unused
'kbs->kb_string' for that purpose.
Note that the program above needs at least CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG.
This depends on the previous patch and on the func_buf_lock lock added
in commit 46ca3f735f (tty/vt: fix write/write race in ioctl(KDSKBSENT)
handler) in 5.2.
Likely fixes CVE-2020-25656.

Use 'strlen' of the string, add one for NUL terminator and simply do
'copy_to_user' instead of the explicit 'for' loop. This makes the
KDGKBSENT case more compact.
The only thing we need to take care about is NULL 'func_table[i]'. Use
an empty string in that case.
The original check for overflow could never trigger as the func_buf
strings are always shorter or equal to 'struct kbsentry's.

Prior to the commit that this one fixes, the FIFO size was derived from
the read-only register LPUARTx_FIFO[TXFIFOSIZE] using the following
formula:
TX FIFO size = 2 ^ (LPUARTx_FIFO[TXFIFOSIZE] - 1)
The documentation for LS1021A is a mess. Under chapter 26.1.3 LS1021A
LPUART module special consideration, it mentions TXFIFO_SZ and RXFIFO_SZ
being equal to 4, and in the register description for LPUARTx_FIFO, it
shows the out-of-reset value of TXFIFOSIZE and RXFIFOSIZE fields as "011",
even though these registers read as "101" in reality.
And when LPUART on LS1021A was working, the "101" value did correspond
to "16 datawords", by applying the formula above, even though the
documentation is wrong again (!!!!) and says that "101" means 64 datawords
(hint: it doesn't).
So the "new" formula created by commit f77ebb241c has all the premises
of being wrong for LS1021A, because it relied only on false data and no
actual experimentation.
Interestingly, in commit c2f448cff2 ("tty: serial: fsl_lpuart: add
LS1028A support"), Michael Walle applied a workaround to this by manually
setting the FIFO widths for LS1028A. It looks like the same values are
used by LS1021A as well, in fact.
When the driver thinks that it has a deeper FIFO than it really has,
getty (user space) output gets truncated.
Many thanks to Michael for pointing out where to look.

After some unsuccessful attempts to use sysrq over console, figured
out that port->has_sysrq should likely be enabled, as per other
architectures, this when CONFIG_SERIAL_MCF_CONSOLE is also enabled.
Tested some magic sysrq commands (h, p, t, b), they works now
properly. Commands works inside 5 secs after BREAK is sent, as
expected.

Currently, the RX interrupt logic uses the RXEMPTY interrupt, with the
RXEMPTYINV bit set, which means we get an RX interrupt as soon as the
RX FIFO is non-empty.
However, with the MAX310X having a FIFO of 128 bytes, this makes very
poor use of the FIFO: we trigger an interrupt as soon as the RX FIFO
has one byte, which means a lot of interrupts, each only collecting a
few bytes from the FIFO, causing a significant CPU load.
Instead this commit relies on two other RX interrupt events:
- MAX310X_IRQ_RXFIFO_BIT, which triggers when the RX FIFO has reached
a certain threshold, which we define to be half of the FIFO
size. This ensure we get an interrupt before the RX FIFO fills up.
- MAX310X_LSR_RXTO_BIT, which triggers when the RX FIFO has received
some bytes, and then no more bytes are received for a certain
time. Arbitrarily, this time is defined to the time is takes to
receive 4 characters.
On a Microchip SAMA5D3 platform that is receiving 20 bytes every 16ms
over one MAX310X UART, this patch has allowed to reduce the CPU
consumption of the interrupt handler thread from ~25% to 6-7%.

It has been discovered that there is a potential deadlock between
the clock-change-notifier thread and the UART port suspending one:
CPU0 (suspend CPU/UART) CPU1 (update clock)
---- ----
lock(&port->mutex);
lock((work_completion)(&data->clk_work));
lock(&port->mutex);
lock((work_completion)(&data->clk_work));
*** DEADLOCK ***
The best way to fix this is to eliminate the CPU0
port->mutex/work-completion scenario. So we suggest to register and
unregister the clock-notifier during the DW APB UART port probe/remove
procedures, instead of doing that at the points of the port
startup/shutdown.

It is erroneous to update the TTY port baud rate if it hasn't been
initialized yet, because in that case the TTY struct isn't set. So there
is no termios structure to get and re-calculate the baud if the current
baud can't be reached. Let's skip the baud rate update then until the port
is fully initialized.
Note the update UART clock method still sets the uartclk member with a new
ref clock value even if the port is turned off. The new UART ref clock
rate will be used later on the port starting up procedure.

The IPG clock is disabled at the end of imx_uart_shutdown(); we really
don't want to run any IRQ handlers after this point.
At least on i.MX8MN, the UART will happily continue to generate interrupts
even with its clocks disabled, but in this state, all register writes are
ignored (which will cause the shadow registers to differ from the actual
register values, resulting in all kinds of weirdness).
In a transfer without DMA, this could lead to the following sequence of
events:
- The UART finishes its transmission while imx_uart_shutdown() is run,
triggering the TXDC interrupt (we can trigger this fairly reliably by
writing a single byte to the TTY and closing it right away)
- imx_uart_shutdown() finishes, disabling the UART clocks
- imx_uart_int() -> imx_uart_transmit_buffer() -> imx_uart_stop_tx()
imx_uart_stop_tx() should now clear UCR4_TCEN to disable the TXDC
interrupt, but this register write is ineffective. This results in an
interrupt storm.
To disable all interrupts in the same place, and to avoid setting UCR4
twice, clearing UCR4_OREN is moved below del_timer_sync() as well; this
should be harmless.

This is the port of the commit db1b5bc047 ("serial: 8250: Fix TX
interrupt handling condition") to the 8250_fsl irq handling logic.
Interrupt handler checked THRE bit (transmitter holding register
empty) in LSR to detect if TX fifo is empty.
In case when there is only receive interrupts the TX handling
got called because THRE bit in LSR is set when there is no
transmission (FIFO empty). TX handling caused TX stop, which in
RS-485 half-duplex mode actually resets receiver FIFO. This is not
desired during reception because of possible data loss.
The fix is to check if THRI is set in IER in addition of the TX
fifo status. THRI in IER is set when TX is started and cleared
when TX is stopped.
This ensures that TX handling is only called when there is really
transmission on going and an interrupt for THRE and not when there
are only RX interrupts.

The issue being that CPU0 takes 'port_lock' on the irq path in pl011_int()
before taking 'console_owner' on the printk() path, whereas CPU1 takes
the two locks in the opposite order on the printk() path due to setting
the "console_owner" prior to calling into into the actual console driver.
Fix this in the same way as the msm-serial driver by dropping 'port_lock'
before handling the sysrq.

syzbot is reporting UAF/OOB read at bit_putcs()/soft_cursor() [1][2], for
vt_resizex() from ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) allows setting font height larger than
actual font height calculated by con_font_set() from ioctl(PIO_FONT).
Since fbcon_set_font() from con_font_set() allocates minimal amount of
memory based on actual font height calculated by con_font_set(),
use of vt_resizex() can cause UAF/OOB read for font data.
VT_RESIZEX was introduced in Linux 1.3.3, but it is unclear that what
comes to the "+ more" part, and I couldn't find a user of VT_RESIZEX.
#define VT_RESIZE 0x5609 /* set kernel's idea of screensize */
#define VT_RESIZEX 0x560A /* set kernel's idea of screensize + more */
So far we are not aware of syzbot reports caused by setting non-zero value
to v_vlin parameter. But given that it is possible that nobody is using
VT_RESIZEX, we can try removing support for v_clin and v_vlin parameters.
Therefore, this patch effectively makes VT_RESIZEX behave like VT_RESIZE,
with emitting a message if somebody is still using v_clin and/or v_vlin
parameters.

Fix the port-lock initialisation regression introduced by commit
a3cb39d258 ("serial: core: Allow detach and attach serial device for
console") by making sure that the lock is again initialised during
console setup.
The console may be registered before the serial controller has been
probed in which case the port lock needs to be initialised during
console setup by a call to uart_set_options(). The console-detach
changes introduced a regression in several drivers by effectively
removing that initialisation by not initialising the lock when the port
is used as a console (which is always the case during console setup).
Add back the early lock initialisation and instead use a new
console-reinit flag to handle the case where a console is being
re-attached through sysfs.
The question whether the console-detach interface should have been added
in the first place is left for another discussion.
Note that the console-enabled check in uart_set_options() is not
redundant because of kgdboc, which can end up reinitialising an already
enabled console (see commit 42b6a1baa3 ("serial_core: Don't
re-initialize a previously initialized spinlock.")).

second redundant initialisation of the lock for normal ports.
Start cleaning up this mess by removing the redundant initialisation and
making sure that the port lock is again initialised once-only for ports
that aren't already in use as a console.

Commit c5cbc78acf ("tty: serial: qcom_geni_serial: Initialize baud
in qcom_geni_console_setup") fixed a bug by initting a variable that
was used in some cases without initialization. However, the "default"
baud rate picked by that CL was probably not the best choice. The
chances that anyone out there is trying to run a system with kernel
messages piped out over a 9600 baud serial port is just about nil.
Console messages are printed in a blocking manner. At 9600 baud we
print about 1 character per millisecond which means that printing a
40-byte message to the console will take ~40 ms. While it would
probably work, it's going to make boot _very_ slow and probably cause
the occasional timeout here and there in drivers (heck, even at 115200
console delays can wreck havoc).
This has already bit at least two people that I'm aware of that tried
to enable serial console by just adding "console=ttyMSM0" (instead of
"console=ttyMSM0,115200n8") to the command line, so it seems like it'd
be nice to fix.
Let's switch the default to 115200.
