Revert "tty/8250_pnp: serial port detection regression since v3.7"

2013-04-12T16:52:13+00:00

commit c12f9ea28e9fbe7b1f4cefc953bee33298370683 upstream.

This reverts commit 77e372a3d82e5e4878ce1962207edd766773cc76.

Checking for disabled resources board breaks detection pnp on another
board "AMI UEFI implementation (Version: 0406 Release Date: 06/06/2012)".
I'm working with the reporter of the original bug to write and test
a better fix.

vt: synchronize_rcu() under spinlock is not nice...

commit e8cd81693bbbb15db57d3c9aa7dd90eda4842874 upstream.

vcs_poll_data_free() calls unregister_vt_notifier(), which calls
atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(), which calls synchronize_rcu().
Do it *after* we'd dropped ->f_lock.

sunsu: Fix panic in case of nonexistent port at "console=ttySY" cmdline option

Fix 4 port and add support for 8 port 'Unknown' PCI serial port cards

2013-03-20T20:10:54+00:00

commit d13402a4a944e72612a9ec5c9190e35717c02a9d upstream.

I've managed to find an 8 port version of the card 4 port card which was discussed here:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-serial&m=120760744205314&w=2

Looking back at that thread there were two issues in the original patch.

1) The I/O ports for the UARTs are within BAR2 not BAR0. This can been seen in the original post.
2) A serial quirk isn't needed as these cards have no memory in BAR0 which makes pci_plx9050_init just return.

This patch fixes the 4 port support to use BAR2, removes the bogus quirk and adds support for the 8 port card.

TTY: do not reset master's packet mode

2013-03-20T20:10:54+00:00

commit b81273a132177edd806476b953f6afeb17b786d5 upstream.

Now that login from util-linux is forced to drop all references to a
TTY which it wants to hangup (to reach reference count 1) we are
seeing issues with telnet. When login closes its last reference to the
slave PTY, it also resets packet mode on the *master* side. And we
have a race here.

What telnet does is fork+exec of `login'. Then there are two
scenarios:
* `login' closes the slave TTY and resets thus master's packet mode,
  but even now telnet properly sets the mode, or
* `telnetd' sets packet mode on the master, `login' closes the slave
  TTY and resets master's packet mode.

The former case is OK. However the latter happens in much more cases,
by the order of magnitude to be precise. So when one tries to login to
such a messed telnet setup, they see the following:
inux login:
            ogin incorrect

Note the missing first letters -- telnet thinks it is still in the
packet mode, so when it receives "linux login" from `login', it
considers "l" as the type of the packet and strips it.

SuS does not mention how the implementation should behave. Both BSDs I
checked (Free and Net) do not reset the flag upon the last close.

By this I am resurrecting an old bug, see References. We are hitting
it regularly now, i.e. with updated util-linux, ergo login.

Here, I am changing a behavior introduced back in 2.1 times. It would
better have a long time testing before goes upstream.

TTY: disable debugging warning

2013-03-20T20:10:54+00:00

commit 34dcfb8479ab3c3669561eb9279284cb0eda2572 upstream.

We added a warning to flush_to_ldisc to report cases when it is called
with a NULL tty. It was for debugging purposes and it lead to a
patchset from Peter Hurley. The patchset however did not make it to
3.9, so disable the warning now to not disturb people.

We can re-add it when the series is in and we are hunting for another
bugs.

da121506eb03ee5daea55404709110b798bd61d9 ("serial: samsung: merge
probe() function from all SoC specific extensions"). But it also added a
last reference to that symbol. The commit and the tree make clear that
CPU_S3C2412 should have been used instead.

tty: serial: fix typo "ARCH_S5P6450"

commit 827aa0d36d486f359808c8fb931cf7a71011a09d upstream.

This could have been either ARCH_S5P64X0 or CPU_S5P6450. Looking at
commit 2555e663b367b8d555e76023f4de3f6338c28d6c ("ARM: S5P64X0: Add UART
serial support for S5P6450") - which added this typo - makes clear this
should be CPU_S5P6450.
