xen/console: harden hvc_xen against event channel storms

2021-12-22T08:04:19+00:00

commit fe415186b43df0db1f17fa3a46275fd92107fe71 upstream.

The Xen console driver is still vulnerable for an attack via excessive
number of events sent by the backend. Fix that by using a lateeoi event
channel.

For the normal domU initial console this requires the introduction of
bind_evtchn_to_irq_lateeoi() as there is no xenbus device available
at the time the event channel is bound to the irq.

As the decision whether an interrupt was spurious or not requires to
test for bytes having been read from the backend, move sending the
event into the if statement, as sending an event without having found
any bytes to be read is making no sense at all.

This is part of XSA-391

serial: pl011: Add ACPI SBSA UART match id

2021-12-08T07:44:08+00:00

commit ac442a077acf9a6bf1db4320ec0c3f303be092b3 upstream.

The document 'ACPI for Arm Components 1.0' defines the following
_HID mappings:
-'Prime cell UART (PL011)': ARMH0011
-'SBSA UART': ARMHB000

Use the sbsa-uart driver when a device is described with
the 'ARMHB000' _HID.

Note:
PL011 devices currently use the sbsa-uart driver instead of the
uart-pl011 driver. Indeed, PL011 devices are not bound to a clock
in ACPI. It is not possible to change their baudrate.

tty: serial: msm_serial: Deactivate RX DMA for polling support

2021-12-08T07:44:08+00:00

commit 7492ffc90fa126afb67d4392d56cb4134780194a upstream.

The CONSOLE_POLLING mode is used for tools like k(g)db. In this kind of
setup, it is often sharing a serial device with the normal system console.
This is usually no problem because the polling helpers can consume input
values directly (when in kgdb context) and the normal Linux handlers can
only consume new input values after kgdb switched back.

This is not true anymore when RX DMA is enabled for UARTDM controllers.
Single input values can no longer be received correctly. Instead following
seems to happen:

* on 1. input, some old input is read (continuously)
* on 2. input, two old inputs are read (continuously)
* on 3. input, three old input values are read (continuously)
* on 4. input, 4 previous inputs are received

This repeats then for each group of 4 input values.

This behavior changes slightly depending on what state the controller was
when the first input was received. But this makes working with kgdb
basically impossible because control messages are always corrupted when
kgdboc tries to parse them.

RX DMA should therefore be off when CONSOLE_POLLING is enabled to avoid
these kind of problems. No such problem was noticed for TX DMA.

tty: hvc: replace BUG_ON() with negative return value

2021-12-08T07:44:07+00:00

commit e679004dec37566f658a255157d3aed9d762a2b7 upstream.

Xen frontends shouldn't BUG() in case of illegal data received from
their backends. So replace the BUG_ON()s when reading illegal data from
the ring page with negative return values.

tty: tty_buffer: Fix the softlockup issue in flush_to_ldisc

2021-11-26T10:58:42+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3968ddcf05fb4b9409cd1859feb06a5b0550a1c1 ]

When running ltp testcase(ltp/testcases/kernel/pty/pty04.c) with arm64, there is a soft lockup,
which look like this one:

  Workqueue: events_unbound flush_to_ldisc
  Call trace:

   process_one_work+0x1d4/0x4b0
   worker_thread+0x180/0x430
   kthread+0x11c/0x120

In the testcase pty04, The first process call the write syscall to send
data to the pty master. At the same time, the workqueue will do the
flush_to_ldisc to pop data in a loop until there is no more data left.
When the sender and workqueue running in different core, the sender sends
data fastly in full time which will result in workqueue doing work in loop
for a long time and occuring softlockup in flush_to_ldisc with kernel
configured without preempt. So I add need_resched check and cond_resched
in the flush_to_ldisc loop to avoid it.

serial: 8250_dw: Drop wrong use of ACPI_PTR()

[ Upstream commit ebabb77a2a115b6c5e68f7364b598310b5f61fb2 ]

ACPI_PTR() is more harmful than helpful. For example, in this case
if CONFIG_ACPI=n, the ID table left unused which is not what we want.

Instead of adding ifdeffery here and there, drop ACPI_PTR().

tty: Fix out-of-bound vmalloc access in imageblit

2021-10-06T08:22:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3b0c406124719b625b1aba431659f5cdc24a982c ]

This issue happens when a userspace program does an ioctl
FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO passing the fb_var_screeninfo struct
containing only the fields xres, yres, and bits_per_pixel
with values.

If this struct is the same as the previous ioctl, the
vc_resize() detects it and doesn't call the resize_screen(),
leaving the fb_var_screeninfo incomplete. And this leads to
the updatescrollmode() calculates a wrong value to
fbcon_display->vrows, which makes the real_y() return a
wrong value of y, and that value, eventually, causes
the imageblit to access an out-of-bound address value.

To solve this issue I made the resize_screen() be called
even if the screen does not need any resizing, so it will
"fix and fill" the fb_var_screeninfo independently.

serial: 8250_pci: make setup_port() parameters explicitly unsigned

[ Upstream commit 3a96e97ab4e835078e6f27b7e1c0947814df3841 ]

The bar and offset parameters to setup_port() are used in pointer math,
and while it would be very difficult to get them to wrap as a negative
number, just be "safe" and make them unsigned so that static checkers do
not trip over them unintentionally.

hvsi: don't panic on tty_register_driver failure

2021-09-22T09:41:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7ccbdcc4d08a6d7041e4849219bbb12ffa45db4c ]

The alloc_tty_driver failure is handled gracefully in hvsi_init. But
tty_register_driver is not. panic is called if that one fails.

So handle the failure of tty_register_driver gracefully too. This will
keep at least the console functional as it was enabled earlier by
console_initcall in hvsi_console_init. Instead of shooting down the
whole system.

This means, we disable interrupts and restore hvsi_wait back to
poll_for_state().

serial: 8250: Define RX trigger levels for OxSemi 950 devices

2021-09-22T09:41:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit d7aff291d069c4418285f3c8ee27b0ff67ce5998 ]

Oxford Semiconductor 950 serial port devices have a 128-byte FIFO and in
the enhanced (650) mode, which we select in `autoconfig_has_efr' with
the ECB bit set in the EFR register, they support the receive interrupt
trigger level selectable with FCR bits 7:6 from the set of 16, 32, 112,
120.  This applies to the original OX16C950 discrete UART[1] as well as
950 cores embedded into more complex devices.

For these devices we set the default to 112, which sets an excessively
high level of 112 or 7/8 of the FIFO capacity, unlike with other port
types where we choose at most 1/2 of their respective FIFO capacities.
Additionally we don't make the trigger level configurable.  Consequently
frequent input overruns happen with high bit rates where hardware flow
control cannot be used (e.g. terminal applications) even with otherwise
highly-performant systems.

Lower the default receive interrupt trigger level to 32 then, and make
it configurable.  Document the trigger levels along with other port
types, including the set of 16, 32, 64, 112 for the transmit interrupt
as well[2].
