commit 952041a8639a7a3a73a2b6573cb8aa8518bc39f8 upstream.

While reviewing rwsem down_slowpath, Will noticed ldsem had a copy of
a bug we just found for rwsem.

  X = 0;

  CPU0			CPU1

  rwsem_down_read()
    for (;;) {
      set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);

                        X = 1;
                        rwsem_up_write();
                          rwsem_mark_wake()
                            atomic_long_add(adjustment, &amp;sem-&gt;count);
                            smp_store_release(&amp;waiter-&gt;task, NULL);

      if (!waiter.task)
        break;

      ...
    }

  r = X;

Allows 'r == 0'.

commit 06aaa3d066db87e8478522d910285141d44b1e58 upstream.

SMC relocation can also be activated earlier by the bootloader,
so the driver's behaviour cannot rely on selected kernel config.

When the SMC is relocated, CPM_CR_INIT_TRX cannot be used.

But the only thing CPM_CR_INIT_TRX does is to clear the
rstate and tstate registers, so this can be done manually,
even when SMC is not relocated.

commit 5d24f455c182d5116dd5db8e1dc501115ecc9c2c upstream.

The datasheet states:

  Bit 4: ClockEnSet the ClockEn bit high to enable an external clocking
(crystal or clock generator at XIN). Set the ClockEn bit to 0 to disable
clocking
  Bit 1: CrystalEnSet the CrystalEn bit high to enable the crystal
oscillator. When using an external clock source at XIN, CrystalEn must
be set low.

The bit 4, MAX310X_CLKSRC_EXTCLK_BIT, should be set and was not.

This was required to make the MAX3107 with an external crystal on our
board able to send or receive data.

commit 099506cbbc79c0bd52b19cb6b930f256dabc3950 upstream.

As noted in commit 84b40e3b57ee ("serial: 8250: omap: Disable DMA for
console UART"), UART console lines use low-level PIO only access functions
which will conflict with use of the line when DMA is enabled, e.g. when
the console line is also used for systemd messages. So disable DMA
support for UART console lines.

commit 4cdd17ba1dff20ffc99fdbd2e6f0201fc7fe67df upstream.

We need to compute the uart state only on the first open. This is
usually what is done in the -&gt;install hook. serial_core used to do this
in -&gt;open on every open. So move it to -&gt;install.

As a side effect, it ensures the state is set properly in the window
after tty_init_dev is called, but before uart_open. This fixes a bunch
of races between tty_open and flush_to_ldisc we were dealing with
recently.

One of such bugs was attempted to fix in commit fedb5760648a (serial:
fix race between flush_to_ldisc and tty_open), but it only took care of
a couple of functions (uart_start and uart_unthrottle).  I was able to
reproduce the crash on a SLE system, but in uart_write_room which is
also called from flush_to_ldisc via process_echoes. I was *unable* to
reproduce the bug locally. It is due to having this patch in my queue
since 2012!

The bug manifests on systemd systems with multiple vtcon devices:
  # cat /sys/devices/virtual/vtconsole/vtcon0/name
  (S) dummy device
  # cat /sys/devices/virtual/vtconsole/vtcon1/name
  (M) frame buffer device

There systemd runs 'loadkeys' tool in tapallel for each vtcon
instance. This causes two parallel ioctl(KDSKBSENT) calls to
race into adding the same entry into 'func_table' array at:

    drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c:vt_do_kdgkb_ioctl()

The function has no locking around writes to 'func_table'.

The simplest reproducer is to have initrams with the following
init on a 8-CPU machine x86_64:

    #!/bin/sh

    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;

    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;
    loadkeys -q windowkeys ru4 &amp;
    wait

The change adds lock on write path only. Reads are still racy.

commit 93bcefd4c6bad4c69dbc4edcd3fbf774b24d930d upstream.

We disable transmission interrupt (clear SCSCR_TIE) after all data has been transmitted
(if uart_circ_empty(xmit)). While transmitting, if the data is still in the tty buffer,
re-enable the SCSCR_TIE bit, which was done at sci_start_tx().
This is unnecessary processing, wasting CPU operation if the data transmission length is large.
And further, transmit end, FIFO empty bits disabling have also been performed in the step above.
