Revert "drivers:tty:pty: Fix a race causing data loss on close"

2021-03-10T08:27:56+00:00

This reverts commit 33d4ae98859873ddd49e22e4ca724387548b3d89.

Pierre-Louis writes:

	Our SOF/audio CI shows an across-the-board regression when we try v5.12-rc1,
	specifically on pause/resume tests with an interactive terminal running 'aplay
	-i' commands managed by expect to simulate the user pressing the space bar to
	pause/unpause. It turns out the processes are not longer killed and the audio
	devices remain busy (see publicly available test results listed below).

	git bisect points to commit 33d4ae9885987 ("drivers:tty:pty: Fix a race
	causing data loss on close"). Reverting the patch fixes the issue on all test
	devices.

	Further analysis with Corey Minyard points to a problem where a slave tty will
	not get a SIGHUP when the master is closed.

So revert this for now:

 "Here is the big set of tty/serial driver changes for 5.12-rc1.

  Nothing huge, just lots of good cleanups and additions:

   - n_tty line discipline cleanups

   - vt core cleanups and reworks to make the code more "modern"

   - stm32 driver additions

   - tty led support added to the tty core and led layer

   - minor serial driver fixups and additions

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

tty: protect tty_write from odd low-level tty disciplines

2021-02-21T05:15:00+00:00

Al root-caused a new warning from syzbot to the ttyprintk tty driver
returning a write count larger than the data the tty layer actually gave
it.  Which confused the tty write code mightily, and with the new
iov_iter based code, caused a WARNING in iov_iter_revert().

syzbot correctly bisected the source of the new warning to commit
9bb48c82aced ("tty: implement write_iter"), but the oddity goes back
much further, it just didn't get caught by anything before.

tty: avoid using vfs_iocb_iter_write() for redirected console writes

2021-01-29T21:12:17+00:00

It turns out that the vfs_iocb_iter_{read,write}() functions are
entirely broken, and don't actually use the passed-in file pointer for
IO - only for the preparatory work (permission checking and for the
write_iter function lookup).

That worked fine for overlayfs, which always builds the new iocb with
the same file pointer that it passes in, but in the general case it ends
up doing nonsensical things (and could cause an iterator call that
doesn't even match the passed-in file pointer).

This subtly broke the tty conversion to write_iter in commit
9bb48c82aced ("tty: implement write_iter"), because the console
redirection didn't actually end up redirecting anything, since the
passed-in file pointer was basically ignored, and the actual write was
done with the original non-redirected console tty after all.

The main visible effect of this is that the console messages were no
longer logged to /var/log/boot.log during graphical boot.

Fix the issue by simply not using the vfs write "helper" function at
all, and just redirecting the write entirely internally to the tty
layer.  Do the target writability permission checks when actually
registering the target tty with TIOCCONS instead of at write time.

Commit 9bb48c82aced ("tty: implement write_iter") converted the tty

2021-01-25T20:08:07+00:00

layer to use write_iter. Fix the redirected_tty_write declaration
also in n_tty and change the comparisons to use write_iter instead of
write.

[ Also moved the declaration of redirected_tty_write() to the proper
  location in a header file. The reason for the bug was the bogus extern
  declaration in n_tty.c silently not matching the changed definition in
  tty_io.c, and because it wasn't in a shared header file, there was no
  cross-checking of the declaration.

  Sami noticed because Clang's Control Flow Integrity checking ended up
  incidentally noticing the inconsistent declaration.    - Linus ]

tty: fix up hung_up_tty_write() conversion

2021-01-22T10:01:55+00:00

In commit "tty: implement write_iter", I left the write_iter conversion
of the hung up tty case alone, because I incorrectly thought it didn't
matter.

Jiri showed me the errors of my ways, and pointed out the problems with
that incomplete conversion.  Fix it all up.

tty: fix up iterate_tty_read() EOVERFLOW handling

2021-01-22T09:53:10+00:00

When I converted the tty_ldisc_ops 'read()' function to take a kernel
pointer, I was a bit too aggressive about the ldisc returning EOVERFLOW.

Yes, we want to have EOVERFLOW override any partially read data (because
the whole point is that the buffer was too small for the whole packet,
and we don't want to see partial packets), but it shouldn't override a
previous EFAULT.

And in fact, it really is just EOVERFLOW that is special and should
throw away any partially read data, not "any error".  Admittedly
EOVERFLOW is currently the only one that can happen for a continuation
read - and if the first read iteration returns an error we won't have this issue.

So this is more of a technicality, but let's just make the intent very
explicit, and re-organize the error handling a bit so that this is all
clearer.
