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 61c0e37950b88bad590056286c1d766b1f167f4e upstream.

When the tty layer requests the uart to throttle, the current code
executing in msm_serial will trigger "Bad mode in Error Handler" and
generate an invalid stack frame in pstore before rebooting (that is if
pstore is indeed configured: otherwise the user shall just notice a
reboot with no further information dumped to the console).

This patch replaces the PIO byte accessor with the word accessor
already used in PIO mode.

Fixes: 68252424a7c7 ("tty: serial: msm: Support big-endian CPUs")

[ Upstream commit 1bbb1c318cd8a3a39e8c3e2e83d5e90542d6c3e3 ]

ipw-&gt;attr_memory and ipw-&gt;common_memory are assigned with the
return value of ioremap. ioremap may fail, but no checks
are enforced. The fix inserts the checks to avoid potential
NULL pointer dereferences.

commit 46ca3f735f345c9d87383dd3a09fa5d43870770e upstream.

     do_syscall_64+0x54/0xe0
     entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe

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 7c0cca7c847e6e019d67b7d793efbbe3b947d004 upstream.

By default, the kernel will automatically load the module of any line
dicipline that is asked for.  As this sometimes isn't the safest thing
to do, provide a sysctl to disable this feature.

By default, we set this to 'y' as that is the historical way that Linux
has worked, and we do not want to break working systems.  But in the
future, perhaps this can default to 'n' to prevent this functionality.

[ Upstream commit 7ab57b76ebf632bf2231ccabe26bea33868118c6 ]

We increase the default limit for buffer memory allocation by a factor of
10 to 640K to prevent data loss when using fast serial interfaces.

For example when using RS485 without flow-control at speeds of 1Mbit/s
an upwards we've run into problems such as applications being too slow
to read out this buffer (on embedded devices based on imx53 or imx6).

If you want to write transmitted data to a slow SD card and thus have
realtime requirements, this limit can become a problem.

That shouldn't be the case and 640K buffers fix such problems for us.

This value is a maximum limit for allocation only. It has no effect
on systems that currently run fine. When transmission is slow enough
applications and hardware can keep up and increasing this limit
doesn't change anything.

It only _allows_ to allocate more than 2*64K in cases we currently fail to
allocate memory despite having some.

<title>tty/serial: atmel: RS485 HD w/DMA: enable RX after TX is stopped</title>

commit 69646d7a3689fbe1a65ae90397d22ac3f1b8d40f upstream.

In half-duplex operation, RX should be started after TX completes.

If DMA is used, there is a case when the DMA transfer completes but the
TX FIFO is not emptied, so the RX cannot be restarted just yet.

Use a boolean variable to store this state and rearm TX interrupt mask
to be signaled again that the transfer finished. In interrupt transmit
handler this variable is used to start RX. A warning message is generated
if RX is activated before TX fifo is cleared.

RX after TX is done")

commit f3040983132bf3477acd45d2452a906e67c2fec9 upstream.

Use a helper function to check that a port needs to use half duplex
communication, replacing several occurrences of multi-line bit checking.
