commit 991a25194097006ec1e0d2e0814ff920e59e3465 upstream.

On architectures with CBAUDEX == 0 (Alpha and PowerPC), the code in tty_baudrate.c does
not do any limit checking on the tty_baudrate[] array, and in fact a
buffer overrun is possible on both architectures. Add a limit check to
prevent that situation.

This will be followed by a much bigger cleanup/simplification patch.

commit 641a41dbba217ee5bd26abe6be77f8cead9cd00e upstream.

This patch fixes an issue that the sci_remove() could not remove
dev_attr_rx_fifo_timeout because uart_remove_one_port() set
the port-&gt;port.type to PORT_UNKNOWN.

<title>sc16is7xx: Fix for multi-channel stall</title>

[ Upstream commit 8344498721059754e09d30fe255a12dab8fb03ef ]

The SC16IS752 is a dual-channel device. The two channels are largely
independent, but the IRQ signals are wired together as an open-drain,
active low signal which will be driven low while either of the
channels requires attention, which can be for significant periods of
time until operations complete and the interrupt can be acknowledged.
In that respect it is should be treated as a true level-sensitive IRQ.

The kernel, however, needs to be able to exit interrupt context in
order to use I2C or SPI to access the device registers (which may
involve sleeping).  Therefore the interrupt needs to be masked out or
paused in some way.

The usual way to manage sleeping from within an interrupt handler
is to use a threaded interrupt handler - a regular interrupt routine
does the minimum amount of work needed to triage the interrupt before
waking the interrupt service thread. If the threaded IRQ is marked as
IRQF_ONESHOT the kernel will automatically mask out the interrupt
until the thread runs to completion. The sc16is7xx driver used to
use a threaded IRQ, but a patch switched to using a kthread_worker
in order to set realtime priorities on the handler thread and for
other optimisations. The end result is non-threaded IRQ that
schedules some work then returns IRQ_HANDLED, making the kernel
think that all IRQ processing has completed.

The work-around to prevent a constant stream of interrupts is to
mark the interrupt as edge-sensitive rather than level-sensitive,
but interpreting an active-low source as a falling-edge source
requires care to prevent a total cessation of interrupts. Whereas
an edge-triggering source will generate a new edge for every interrupt
condition a level-triggering source will keep the signal at the
interrupting level until it no longer requires attention; in other
words, the host won't see another edge until all interrupt conditions
are cleared. It is therefore vital that the interrupt handler does not
exit with an outstanding interrupt condition, otherwise the kernel
will not receive another interrupt unless some other operation causes
the interrupt state on the device to be cleared.

The existing sc16is7xx driver has a very simple interrupt "thread"
(kthread_work job) that processes interrupts on each channel in turn
until there are no more. If both channels are active and the first
channel starts interrupting while the handler for the second channel
is running then it will not be detected and an IRQ stall ensues. This
could be handled easily if there was a shared IRQ status register, or
a convenient way to determine if the IRQ had been deasserted for any
length of time, but both appear to be lacking.

Avoid this problem (or at least make it much less likely to happen)
by reducing the granularity of per-channel interrupt processing
to one condition per iteration, only exiting the overall loop when
both channels are no longer interrupting.

[ Upstream commit a27d938251ef40c43db81af16fc26b2cec181d4d ]

In commit c58caaab3bf8 ("serial: 8250: of: Defer probe on missing IRQ"), a
check was added for the UART driver being probed prior to the parent IRQ
controller.

Unfortunately this breaks certain boards which have no interrupt support,
like Huawei D03.

Indeed, the 8250 DT bindings state that interrupts should be supported -
not must.

To fix, switch from irq_of_parse_and_map() to of_irq_get(), which
does relay whether the IRQ host controller domain is not ready, i.e.
defer probe, instead of assuming it.

<title>tty: check name length in tty_find_polling_driver()</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 33a1a7be198657c8ca26ad406c4d2a89b7162bcc ]

The issue is found by a fuzzing test.
If tty_find_polling_driver() recevies an incorrect input such as
',,' or '0b', the len becomes 0 and strncmp() always return 0.
In this case, a null p-&gt;ops-&gt;poll_init() is called and it causes a kernel
panic.

Fix this by checking name length against zero in tty_find_polling_driver().

[ Upstream commit 33a1a7be198657c8ca26ad406c4d2a89b7162bcc ]

The issue is found by a fuzzing test.
If tty_find_polling_driver() recevies an incorrect input such as
',,' or '0b', the len becomes 0 and strncmp() always return 0.
In this case, a null p-&gt;ops-&gt;poll_init() is called and it causes a kernel
panic.

Fix this by checking name length against zero in tty_find_polling_driver().

commit 943210ba807ec50aafa2fa7b13bd6d36a478969b upstream.

If you run aptitude on framebuffer console, the display is corrupted. The
corruption is caused by the commit d8ae7242. The patch adds "offset" to
"start" when calling scr_memsetw, but it forgets to do the same addition
on a subsequent call to do_update_region.

<title>kgdboc: Passing ekgdboc to command line causes panic</title>

commit 1bd54d851f50dea6af30c3e6ff4f3e9aab5558f9 upstream.

kgdboc_option_setup does not check input argument before passing it
to strlen. The argument would be a NULL pointer if "ekgdboc", without
its value, is set in command line and thus cause the following panic.

As done treewide earlier, this catches several more open-coded
allocation size calculations that were added to the kernel during the
merge window. This performs the following mechanical transformations
using Coccinelle:

	kvmalloc(a * b, ...) -&gt; kvmalloc_array(a, b, ...)
	kvzalloc(a * b, ...) -&gt; kvcalloc(a, b, ...)
	devm_kzalloc(..., a * b, ...) -&gt; devm_kcalloc(..., a, b, ...)

This reverts commit 2d4dd0da45401c7ae7332b4d1eb7bbb1348edde9.

This broke earlycon on all Renesas ARM platforms using a SCIF port for the
serial console (R-Car, RZ/A1, RZ/G1, RZ/G2 SoCs), due to an incorrect value
of port-&gt;regshift.
