[ Upstream commit f58c252e30cf74f68b0054293adc03b5923b9f0e ]

When 8250 UART is using DMA, x_char (XON/XOFF) is never sent
to the wire. After this change, x_char is injected correctly.

Create uart_xchar_out() helper for sending the x_char out and
accounting related to it. It seems that almost every driver
does these same steps with x_char. Except for 8250, however,
almost all currently lack .serial_out so they cannot immediately
take advantage of this new helper.

The downside of this patch is that it might reintroduce
the problems some devices faced with mixed DMA/non-DMA transfer
which caused revert f967fc8f165f (Revert "serial: 8250_dma:
don't bother DMA with small transfers"). However, the impact
should be limited to cases with XON/XOFF (that didn't work
with DMA capable devices to begin with so this problem is not
very likely to cause a major issue, if any at all).

<title>serial: Fix incorrect rs485 polarity on uart open</title>

commit d3b3404df318504ec084213ab1065b73f49b0f1d upstream.

Commit a6845e1e1b78 ("serial: core: Consider rs485 settings to drive
RTS") sought to deassert RTS when opening an rs485-enabled uart port.
That way, the transceiver does not occupy the bus until it transmits
data.

Unfortunately, the commit mixed up the logic and *asserted* RTS instead
of *deasserting* it:

The commit amended uart_port_dtr_rts(), which raises DTR and RTS when
opening an rs232 port.  "Raising" actually means lowering the signal
that's coming out of the uart, because an rs232 transceiver not only
changes a signal's voltage level, it also *inverts* the signal.  See
the simplified schematic in the MAX232 datasheet for an example:
https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/max232.pdf

So, to raise RTS on an rs232 port, TIOCM_RTS is *set* in port-&gt;mctrl
and that results in the signal being driven low.

In contrast to rs232, the signal level for rs485 Transmit Enable is the
identity, not the inversion:  If the transceiver expects a "high" RTS
signal for Transmit Enable, the signal coming out of the uart must also
be high, so TIOCM_RTS must be *cleared* in port-&gt;mctrl.

The commit did the exact opposite, but it's easy to see why given the
confusing semantics of rs232 and rs485.  Fix it.

<title>serial: core: Keep mctrl register state and cached copy in sync</title>

[ Upstream commit 93a770b7e16772530196674ffc79bb13fa927dc6 ]

struct uart_port contains a cached copy of the Modem Control signals.
It is used to skip register writes in uart_update_mctrl() if the new
signal state equals the old signal state.  It also avoids a register
read to obtain the current state of output signals.

When a uart_port is registered, uart_configure_port() changes signal
state but neglects to keep the cached copy in sync.  That may cause
a subsequent register write to be incorrectly skipped.  Fix it before
it trips somebody up.

This behavior has been present ever since the serial core was introduced
in 2002:
https://git.kernel.org/history/history/c/33c0d1b0c3eb

So far it was never an issue because the cached copy is initialized to 0
by kzalloc() and when uart_configure_port() is executed, at most DTR has
been set by uart_set_options() or sunsu_console_setup().  Therefore,
a stable designation seems unnecessary.

<title>serial: 8250: Fix RTS modem control while in rs485 mode</title>

Commit f45709df7731 ("serial: 8250: Don't touch RTS modem control while
in rs485 mode") sought to prevent user space from interfering with rs485
communication by ignoring a TIOCMSET ioctl() which changes RTS polarity.

It did so in serial8250_do_set_mctrl(), which turns out to be too deep
in the call stack:  When a uart_port is opened, RTS polarity is set by
the rs485-aware function uart_port_dtr_rts().  It calls down to
serial8250_do_set_mctrl() and that particular RTS polarity change should
*not* be ignored.

The user-visible result is that on 8250_omap ports which use rs485 with
inverse polarity (RTS bit in MCR register is 1 to receive, 0 to send),
a newly opened port initially sets up RTS for sending instead of
receiving.  That's because omap_8250_startup() sets the cached value
up-&gt;mcr to 0 and omap_8250_restore_regs() subsequently writes it to the
MCR register.  Due to the commit, serial8250_do_set_mctrl() preserves
that incorrect register value:

do_sys_openat2
  do_filp_open
    path_openat
      vfs_open
        do_dentry_open
	  chrdev_open
	    tty_open

			uart_change_speed
			  serial8250_set_termios
			    omap_8250_set_termios

		        serial8250_set_mctrl
			  omap8250_set_mctrl
			    serial8250_do_set_mctrl # mcr[1] = 1 ignored

Fix by intercepting RTS changes from user space in uart_tiocmset()
instead.

Commit 761ed4a94582 ("tty: serial_core: convert uart_close to use
tty_port_close") converted serial core to use tty_port_close() but
failed to notice that the transmit buffer still needs to be freed on
final close.

Not freeing the transmit buffer means that the buffer is no longer
cleared on next open so that any ioctl() waiting for the buffer to drain
might wait indefinitely (e.g. on termios changes) or that stale data can
end up being transmitted in case tx is restarted.

Furthermore, the buffer of any port that has been opened would leak on
driver unbind.

Note that the port lock is held when clearing the buffer pointer due to
the ldisc race worked around by commit a5ba1d95e46e ("uart: fix race
between uart_put_char() and uart_shutdown()").

Also note that the tty-port shutdown() callback is not called for
console ports so it is not strictly necessary to free the buffer page
after releasing the lock (cf. d72402145ace ("tty/serial: do not free
trasnmit buffer page under port lock")).

Since commit edc6afc54968 ("tty: switch to ktermios and new framework")
termios speed is no longer stored only in c_cflag member but also in new
additional c_ispeed and c_ospeed members. If BOTHER flag is set in c_cflag
then termios speed is stored only in these new members.

Therefore to correctly restore termios speed it is required to store also
ispeed and ospeed members, not only cflag member.

In case only cflag member with BOTHER flag is restored then functions
tty_termios_baud_rate() and tty_termios_input_baud_rate() returns baudrate
stored in c_ospeed / c_ispeed member, which is zero as it was not restored
too. If reported baudrate is invalid (e.g. zero) then serial core functions
report fallback baudrate value 9600. So it means that in this case original
baudrate is lost and kernel changes it to value 9600.

Simple reproducer of this issue is to boot kernel with following command
line argument: "console=ttyXXX,86400" (where ttyXXX is the device name).
For speed 86400 there is no Bnnn constant and therefore kernel has to
represent this speed via BOTHER c_cflag. Which means that speed is stored
only in c_ospeed and c_ispeed members, not in c_cflag anymore.

If bootloader correctly configures serial device to speed 86400 then kernel
prints boot log to early console at speed speed 86400 without any issue.
But after kernel starts initializing real console device ttyXXX then speed
is changed to fallback value 9600 because information about speed was lost.

This patch fixes above issue by storing and restoring also ispeed and
ospeed members, which are required for BOTHER flag.

put_tty_driver() is an alias for tty_driver_kref_put(). There is no need
for two exported identical functions, therefore switch all users of
old put_tty_driver() to new tty_driver_kref_put() and remove the former
for good.

alloc_tty_driver was deprecated by tty_alloc_driver in commit
7f0bc6a68ed9 (TTY: pass flags to alloc_tty_driver) in 2012.

I never got into eliminating alloc_tty_driver until now. So we still
have two functions for allocating drivers which might be confusing. So
get rid of alloc_tty_driver uses to eliminate it for good in the next
patch.

Note we need to switch return value checking as tty_alloc_driver uses
ERR_PTR. And flags are now a parameter of tty_alloc_driver.

<title>serial: core: Report magic multiplier extra baud rates</title>

Report extra baud rates supported above the base rate for ports with the
UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER property, so that people have a way to find out
that they can be used with their system, e.g.:

Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 5 ports, IRQ sharing enabled
printk: console [ttyS0] disabled
serial8250.0: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
serial8250.0: ttyS0 extra baud rates supported: 230400, 460800
printk: console [ttyS0] enabled
printk: bootconsole [uart8250] disabled
serial8250.0: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
serial8250.0: ttyS1 extra baud rates supported: 230400, 460800
serial8250.0: ttyS2 at MMIO 0x1f000900 (irq = 20, base_baud = 230400) is a 16550A

Otherwise there is no clear way to figure this out, as the feature is
only reported as an obscure TTY flag in bit 16:

$ cat /sys/class/tty/ttyS[0-2]/flags
0x10010040
0x10010040
0x90000040

<title>tty: make tty_get_{char,frame}_size available</title>

<id>654ee49b7e0883e660be6e6e20876fc4cbdaadd1</id>
<content type='text'>
Many tty drivers contain code to compute bits count depending on termios
cflags. So extract this code from serial core to two separate tty helper
functions:
* tty_get_char_size -- only size of a character, without flags,
* tty_get_frame_size -- complete size of a frame including flags.

In the next patch, calls to these new functions replace many copies of
this code.

Note that we accept only cflag as a parameter. That's because some
callers like pch_uart_startup or sunsab_console_setup don't have at hand
termios which we could pass around.

Many tty drivers contain code to compute bits count depending on termios
cflags. So extract this code from serial core to two separate tty helper
functions:
* tty_get_char_size -- only size of a character, without flags,
* tty_get_frame_size -- complete size of a frame including flags.

In the next patch, calls to these new functions replace many copies of
this code.

Note that we accept only cflag as a parameter. That's because some
callers like pch_uart_startup or sunsab_console_setup don't have at hand
termios which we could pass around.
