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!

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.

<title>vt/fbcon: deinitialize resources in visual_init() after failed memory allocation</title>

commit a1ad1cc9704f64c169261a76e1aee1cf1ae51832 upstream.

After memory allocation failure vc_allocate() doesn't clean up data
which has been initialized in visual_init(). In case of fbcon this
leads to divide-by-0 in fbcon_init() on next open of the same tty.

memory allocation in vc_allocate() may fail here:
1097:     vc-&gt;vc_screenbuf = kzalloc(vc-&gt;vc_screenbuf_size, GFP_KERNEL);

on next open() fbcon_init() skips vc_font.data initialization:
1088:     if (!p-&gt;fontdata) {

division by zero in fbcon_init() happens here:
1149:     new_cols /= vc-&gt;vc_font.width;

Additional check is needed in fbcon_deinit() to prevent
usage of uninitialized vc_screenbuf:

1251:        if (vc-&gt;vc_hi_font_mask &amp;&amp; vc-&gt;vc_screenbuf)
1252:                set_vc_hi_font(vc, false);

Crash:

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.

[ 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.

[ 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 f91253a3d005796404ae0e578b3394459b5f9b71 upstream.

The Linux kernel will auto-disables all boot consoles whenever it
gets a preferred real console.

Currently on RISC-V systems, if we have a real console which is not
RISCV SBI console then boot consoles (such as earlycon=sbi) are not
auto-disabled when a real console (ttyS0 or ttySIF0) is available.
This results in duplicate prints at boot-time after kernel starts
using real console (i.e. ttyS0 or ttySIF0) if "earlycon=" kernel
parameter was passed by bootloader.

The reason for above issue is that RISCV SBI console always adds
itself as preferred console which is causing other real consoles
to be not used as preferred console.

Ideally "console=" kernel parameter passed by bootloaders should
be the one selecting a preferred real console.

This patch fixes above issue by not forcing RISCV SBI console as
preferred console.

commit 46ca3f735f345c9d87383dd3a09fa5d43870770e upstream.

The bug manifests as an attempt to access deallocated memory:

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.

<title>tty: vt.c: Fix TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN console blanking if blankinterval == 0</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 75ddbc1fb11efac87b611d48e9802f6fe2bb2163 upstream.

Previously, in the userspace, it was possible to use the "setterm" command
from util-linux to blank the VT console by default, using the following
command.

According to the man page,

&gt; The force option keeps the screen blank even if a key is pressed.

It was implemented by calling TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN.

	case BLANKSCREEN:
		ioctlarg = TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN;
		if (ioctl(STDIN_FILENO, TIOCLINUX, &amp;ioctlarg))
			warn(_("cannot force blank"));
		break;

However, after Linux 4.12, this command ceased to work anymore, which is
unexpected. By inspecting the kernel source, it shows that the issue was
triggered by the side-effect from commit a4199f5eb809 ("tty: Disable
default console blanking interval").

The console blanking is implemented by function do_blank_screen() in vt.c:
"blank_state" will be initialized to "blank_normal_wait" in con_init() if
AND ONLY IF ("blankinterval" &gt; 0). If "blankinterval" is 0, "blank_state"
will be "blank_off" (== 0), and a call to do_blank_screen() will always
abort, even if a forced blanking is required from the user by calling
TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN, the console won't be blanked.

This behavior is unexpected from a user's point-of-view, since it's not
mentioned in any documentation. The setterm man page suggests it will
always work, and the kernel comments in uapi/linux/tiocl.h says

&gt; /* keep screen blank even if a key is pressed */
&gt; #define TIOCL_BLANKSCREEN 14

To fix it, we simply remove the "blank_state != blank_off" check, as
pointed out by Nicolas Pitre, this check doesn't logically make sense
and it's safe to remove.

err_spi is only called within SERIAL_SC16IS7XX_SPI
while err_i2c is called inside SERIAL_SC16IS7XX_I2C.
So we need to put err_spi and err_i2c into each #ifdef
accordingly.

This change fixes ("sc16is7xx: move label 'err_spi'
