BRKINT and ISIG requires input and output flush when a signal char
is received. However, the order of operations is significant since
parallel i/o may be ongoing.

Merge the signal handling for BRKINT with ISIG handling.

Process the signal first. This ensures any ongoing i/o is aborted;
without this, a waiting writer may continue writing after the flush
occurs and after the signal char has been echoed.

Write lock the termios_rwsem, which excludes parallel writers from
pushing new i/o until after the output buffers are flushed; claiming
the write lock is necessary anyway to exclude parallel readers while
the read buffer is flushed.

Subclass the termios_rwsem for ptys since the slave pty performing
the flush may appear to reorder the termios_rwsem-&gt;tty buffer lock
lock order; adding annotation clarifies that
  slave tty_buffer lock-&gt; slave termios_rwsem -&gt; master tty_buffer lock
is a valid lock order.

Flush the echo buffer. In this context, the echo buffer is 'output'.
Otherwise, the output will appear discontinuous because the output buffer
was cleared which contains older output than the echo buffer.

Open-code the read buffer flush since the input worker does not need
kicking (this is the input worker).

<title>n_tty: Fix read buffer overwrite when no newline</title>

<content type='text'>
In canon mode, the read buffer head will advance over the buffer tail
if the input &gt; 4095 bytes without receiving a line termination char.

Discard additional input until a line termination is received.
Before evaluating for overflow, the 'room' value is normalized for
I_PARMRK and 1 byte is reserved for line termination (even in !icanon
mode, in case the mode is switched). The following table shows the
transform:

 actual buffer |  'room' value before overflow calc
  space avail  |    !I_PARMRK    |    I_PARMRK
 --------------------------------------------------
      0        |       -1        |       -1
      1        |        0        |        0
      2        |        1        |        0
      3        |        2        |        0
      4+       |        3        |        1

When !icanon or when icanon and the read buffer contains newlines,
normalized 'room' values of -1 and 0 are clamped to 0, and
'overflow' is 0, so read_head is not adjusted and the input i/o loop
exits (setting no_room if called from flush_to_ldisc()). No input
is discarded since the reader does have input available to read
which ensures forward progress.

When icanon and the read buffer does not contain newlines and the
normalized 'room' value is 0, then overflow and room are reset to 1,
so that the i/o loop will process the next input char normally
(except for parity errors which are ignored). Thus, erasures, signalling
chars, 7-bit mode, etc. will continue to be handled properly.

If the input char processed was not a line termination char, then
the canon_head index will not have advanced, so the normalized 'room'
value will now be -1 and 'overflow' will be set, which indicates the
read_head can safely be reset, effectively erasing the last char
processed.

If the input char processed was a line termination, then the
canon_head index will have advanced, so 'overflow' is cleared to 0,
the read_head is not reset, and 'room' is cleared to 0, which exits
the i/o loop (because the reader now have input available to read
which ensures forward progress).

Note that it is possible for a line termination to be received, and
for the reader to copy the line to the user buffer before the
input i/o loop is ready to process the next input char. This is
why the i/o loop recomputes the room/overflow state with every
input char while handling overflow.

Finally, if the input data was processed without receiving
a line termination (so that overflow is still set), the pty
driver must receive a write wakeup. A pty writer may be waiting
to write more data in n_tty_write() but without unthrottling
here that wakeup will not arrive, and forward progress will halt.
(Normally, the pty writer is woken when the reader reads data out
of the buffer and more space become available).

If PARMRK is enabled, the available read buffer space computation is
overly-pessimistic, which results in severely throttled i/o, even
in the absence of parity errors. For example, if the 4k read buffer
contains 1k processed data, the input worker will compute available
space of 333 bytes, despite 3k being available. At 1365 chars of
processed data, 0 space available is computed.

*Divide remaining space* by 3, truncating down (if left == 2, left = 0).

<id>70aca71f92ca2c111978bf676287fab5580d2598</id>
<content type='text'>
Add commit_head buffer index, which the producer-side publishes
after input processing in non-canon mode. This ensures the consumer-side
observes correctly-ordered writes in non-canonical mode (ie., the buffer
data is written before the buffer index is advanced). Fix consumer-side
uses of read_cnt() to use commit_head instead.

Add required memory barriers to the tail index to guarantee
the consumer-side has completed the loads before the producer-side
begins writing new data. Open-code the producer-side receive_room()
into the i/o loop.

Remove no-longer-referenced receive_room().

The adjustments performed by receive_room() are to ensure a line

these adjustments are irrelevant to the throttle threshold (because

The tty driver will be mistakenly throttled if a line termination
has not been received, and the line exceeds 3967 chars. Thus, it is
possible for the driver to stop sending when it has not yet sent
the newline. This does not apply to the pty driver.

Don't throttle until at least one line termination has been
received.

The input worker never reschedules itself; it only processes input until
either there is no more input or the read buffer is full. So the reader
is responsible for restarting the input worker only if the read buffer
was previously full (no_room == 1) _and_ space is now available to process
more input because the reader has consumed data from the read buffer.

However, computing the actual space available is not required to determine
if the reader has consumed data from the read buffer. This condition is
evaluated in 5 situations, each of which the space avail is already known:
1. n_tty_flush_buffer() - the read buffer is empty; kick the worker
2. n_tty_set_termios() - no data has been consumed; do not kick the worker
       (although it may have kicked the reader so data _will be_ consumed)
3. n_tty_check_unthrottle - avail space &gt; 3968; kick the worker
4. n_tty_read, before leaving - only kick the worker if the reader has
       moved the tail. This prevents unnecessarily kicking the worker
       when timeout-style reading is used.
5. n_tty_read, before sleeping - although it is possible for the read
       buffer to be full and input_available_p() to be false, this can
       only happen when the input worker is racing the reader, in which
       case the reader will have been woken and won't sleep.

Rename n_tty_set_room() to n_tty_kick_worker() to reflect what the
function actually does.

 "Here's the big tty/serial driver update for 3.19-rc1.

  There are a number of TTY core changes/fixes in here from Peter Hurley
  that have all been teted in linux-next for a long time now.  There are
  also the normal serial driver updates as well, full details in the
  changelog below"

* tag 'tty-3.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty: (219 commits)
  serial: pxa: hold port.lock when reporting modem line changes
  tty-hvsi_lib: Deletion of an unnecessary check before the function call "tty_kref_put"
  tty: Deletion of unnecessary checks before two function calls
  n_tty: Fix read_buf race condition, increment read_head after pushing data
  serial: of-serial: add PM suspend/resume support
  Revert "serial: of-serial: add PM suspend/resume support"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle are:

   - 'Nested Sleep Debugging', activated when CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.

     This instruments might_sleep() checks to catch places that nest
     blocking primitives - such as mutex usage in a wait loop.  Such
     bugs can result in hard to debug races/hangs.

     Another category of invalid nesting that this facility will detect
     is the calling of blocking functions from within schedule() -&gt;
     sched_submit_work() -&gt; blk_schedule_flush_plug().

     There's some potential for false positives (if secondary blocking
     primitives themselves are not ready yet for this facility), but the
     kernel will warn once about such bugs per bootup, so the warning
     isn't much of a nuisance.

     This feature comes with a number of fixes, for problems uncovered
     with it, so no messages are expected normally.

   - Another round of sched/numa optimizations and refinements, for
     CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y.

   - Another round of sched/dl fixes and refinements.

  Plus various smaller fixes and cleanups"
