Pull removal of in-kernel calls to syscalls from Dominik Brodowski:
"System calls are interaction points between userspace and the kernel.
Therefore, system call functions such as sys_xyzzy() or
compat_sys_xyzzy() should only be called from userspace via the
syscall table, but not from elsewhere in the kernel.
At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
future.
Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
code.
This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the
kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the
three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely
kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h"

This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv, m32r,
metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to ensure
that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely unused in
mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the respective
ports to start with and getting them included in upstream, but also saw
no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company
in charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It seems
that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not used the
custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In contrast,
CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively maintained
kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I made
sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile, mn10300,
and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old kernels,
but those products will never be updated to newer kernel releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing their
support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first place.
They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some degree, but
complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1. Csky posted
their first kernel patch set last week, their situation will be similar.

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
sys_ioperm() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant
as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same
calling convention as sys_ioperm().
This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see

A tty is hung up by __tty_hangup() setting file->f_op to
hung_up_tty_fops, which is skipped on ttys whose write operation isn't
tty_write(). This means that, for example, /dev/console whose write
op is redirected_tty_write() is never actually marked hung up.
Because n_tty_read() uses the hung up status to decide whether to
abort the waiting readers, the lack of hung-up marking can lead to the
following scenario.
1. A session contains two processes. The leader and its child. The
child ignores SIGHUP.
2. The leader exits and starts disassociating from the controlling
terminal (/dev/console).
3. __tty_hangup() skips setting f_op to hung_up_tty_fops.
4. SIGHUP is delivered and ignored.
5. tty_ldisc_hangup() is invoked. It wakes up the waits which should
clear the read lockers of tty->ldisc_sem.
6. The reader wakes up but because tty_hung_up_p() is false, it
doesn't abort and goes back to sleep while read-holding
tty->ldisc_sem.
7. The leader progresses to tty_ldisc_lock() in tty_ldisc_hangup()
and is now stuck in D sleep indefinitely waiting for
tty->ldisc_sem.
The following is Alan's explanation on why some ttys aren't hung up.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171101170908.6ad08580@alans-desktop
1. It broke the serial consoles because they would hang up and close
down the hardware. With tty_port that *should* be fixable properly
for any cases remaining.
2. The console layer was (and still is) completely broken and doens't
refcount properly. So if you turn on console hangups it breaks (as
indeed does freeing consoles and half a dozen other things).
As neither can be fixed quickly, this patch works around the problem
by introducing a new flag, TTY_HUPPING, which is used solely to tell
n_tty_read() that hang-up is in progress for the console and the
readers should be aborted regardless of the hung-up status of the
device.
The following is a sample hung task warning caused by this issue.

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.

SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup

updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(),
and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be
more descriptive.
On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is
not 2 so the table version check must be a warning.
On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console
and console are enabled. On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by
by default. Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing
the early console and console separately.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

Exar sleep wake-up handling has been done on a per-channel basis by
virtue of INT0 being accessible from each channel's address space. I
believe this was initially done out of necessity, but now that Exar
devices have their own driver, we can do things more efficiently by
registering a dedicated INT0 handler at the PCI device level.
I see this change providing the following benefits:
1. If more than one port is active, eliminates the redundant bus
cycles for reading INT0 on every interrupt.
2. This note associated with hooking in the per-channel handler in
8250_port.c is resolved:

Before we go into suspend mode, we enable the imx uart's interrupt for
the awake bit in the UART Status Register 1. If, for some reason, the
awake bit is already set before we enter suspend mode, we get an
interrupt immediately when we enable interrupts for awake. The uart's
clk_ipg is disabled at this point (unless there's an ongoing transfer).
We end up in the interrupt handler, which usually tries to clear the
awake bit. This doesn't work with the clock disabled. Therefore, we
keep getting interrupts forever, resulting in an endless loop.
Clear the awake bit before setting the awaken bit to signal that we want
an imx interrupt when the awake bit will be set. This ensures that we're
not woken up by events that happened before we started going into
suspend mode.
Change the clock handling so that suspend prepares and enables the clock
and suspend_noirq disables it. Revert these operations in resume_noirq and
resume.
With these preparations in place, we can now modify awake and awaken in
the suspend function when the actual imx interrupt is disabled and the
required clk_ipg is active.
Update the thaw and freeze functions to use the new clock handling since
we share the suspend_noirq function between suspend and hibernate.

setserial changes the IRQ via uart_set_info(). It invokes
uart_shutdown() which free the current used IRQ and clear
TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED. It will then update the IRQ number and invoke
uart_startup() before returning to the caller leaving
TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED cleared.
The next open will crash with
| list_add double add: new=ffffffff839fcc98, prev=ffffffff839fcc98, next=ffffffff839fcc98.
since the close from the IOCTL won't free the IRQ (and clean the list)
due to the TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED check in uart_shutdown().
There is same pattern in uart_do_autoconfig() and I *think* it also
needs to set TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED there.
Is there a reason why uart_startup() does not set the flag by itself
after the IRQ has been acquired (since it is cleared in uart_shutdown)?

Serdev controllers are not bound to any drivers and it therefore makes
no sense to generate modaliases for them.
This has already been fixed separately for ACPI controllers for which
uevent errors were also being logged during probe due to the missing
ACPI companions (from which ACPI modaliases are generated).
This patch moves the modalias handling from the bus type to the client
device type. Specifically, this means that only serdev devices (a.k.a.
clients or slaves) will have have MODALIAS fields in their uevent
environments and corresponding modalias sysfs attributes.
Also add the missing static keyword for the modalias device attribute
when moving the definition.

The commit
de9e33bdfa ("serial: 8250_dw: Improve clock rate setting")
obviously tries to cure symptoms, and not a root cause.
The root cause is the non-flexible rate calculation inside the
corresponding clock driver. What we need is to provide maximum UART
divisor value to the clock driver to allow it do the job transparently
to the caller.
Since from the initial commit message I have got no clue which clock
driver actually needs to be amended, I leave this exercise to the people
who know better the case.
Moreover, it seems [1] the fix introduced a regression. And possible
even one more [2].
Taking above, revert the commit de9e33bdfa for now.

The push-pull vs. open-drain are the only supported output modes. The

the only mode, so there's probably no point in exporting that. I wonder
if it's worthwhile to provide a custom dbg_show method to indicate the
current status of the outputs, though.
This patch and [1] for i2c-gpio together make it possible to bit-bang an
I2C bus over GPIOs of an UART which is connected via SPI :). Yes, this
is crazy, but it's fast enough (while on a 26Mhz SPI HW bus with a
dual-core 1.6GHz CPU) to drive an I2C bus at 200kHz, according to my

ACPI enumerated serdev-controllers do not have an ACPI companion, the ACPI
companion belongs to the serdev-device child of the serdev-controller, not
to the controller itself. This was causing serdev_uevent to always return
-ENODEV when called on a serdev-controller leading to errors like these:
kernel: serial serial0: uevent: failed to send synthetic uevent
being logged. This commit modifies serdev_uevent to directly return 0
when called on an ACPI enumerated serdev-controller fixing this.
Note: I do not think that setting a modalias on a devicetree enumerated

the check can be dropped too, but I'm not entirely sure that doing this

Fix to return a negative error code from the port register error
handling case instead of 0, as done elsewhere in this function.

Some devices have the control dlci stay in ADM mode instead of the UA
mode. This can seen at least on droid 4 when trying to open the ts
27.010 mux port. Enabling n_gsm debug mode shows the control dlci
always respond with DM to SABM instead of UA:
# modprobe n_gsm debug=0xff
# ldattach -d GSM0710 /dev/ttyS0 &
gsmld_output: 00000000: f9 03 3f 01 1c f9
--> 0) C: SABM(P)
gsmld_receive: 00000000: f9 03 1f 01 36 f9
<-- 0) C: DM(P)
...
$ minicom -D /dev/gsmtty1
minicom: cannot open /dev/gsmtty1: No error information
$ strace minicom -D /dev/gsmtty1
...
open("/dev/gsmtty1", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 EL2HLT
Note that this is different issue from other n_gsm -EL2HLT issues such
as timeouts when the control dlci does not respond at all.
The ADM mode seems to be a quite common according to "RF Wireless World"
article "GSM Issue-UE sends SABM and gets a DM response instead of
UA response":
This issue is most commonly observed in GSM networks where in UE sends
SABM and expects network to send UA response but it ends up receiving
DM response from the network. SABM stands for Set asynchronous balanced
mode, UA stands for Unnumbered Acknowledge and DA stands for
Disconnected Mode.
An RLP entity can be in one of two modes:
- Asynchronous Balanced Mode (ABM)
- Asynchronous Disconnected Mode (ADM)
Currently Linux kernel closes the control dlci after several retries
in gsm_dlci_t1() on DM. This causes n_gsm /dev/gsmtty ports to produce
error code -EL2HLT when trying to open them as the closing of control
dlci has already set gsm->dead.
Let's fix the issue by allowing control dlci stay in ADM mode after the
retries so the /dev/gsmtty ports can be opened and used. It seems that
it might take several attempts to get any response from the control
dlci, so it's best to allow ADM mode only after the SABM retries are
done.
Note that for droid 4 additional patches are needed to mux the ttyS0
pins and to toggle RTS gpio_149 to wake up the mdm6600 modem are also
needed to use n_gsm. And the mdm6600 modem needs to be powered on.

The rs485 flag "SER_RS485_RTS_AFTER_SEND" was wrongly read from the GPIO
flags. This caused the RTS pin to be high during boot.

All calls to neo_copy_data_from_uart_to_queue() are safeguarded
against NULL dereference of its parameter, except the one that
this patch changes.
That said, let's play safe and check for NULL in this case too.

After inspection made by Markus using Coccinelle software, he
observed that we could possibly be triggering a NULL pointer
dereference in 2 functions [0].
After discussion in mailing list, it was observed in fact
we have two unnecessary checks for NULL pointer, and they
were leading to Coccinelle warn. So, instead of reworking
the code as proposed by him, we hereby remove the
unnecessary checks, and also some unneeded extra lines in
the code.
These two unnecessary NULL checks were tracked in the call
chain as never NULL, so they can be safely removed.
No functional changes are intended.
