acfa747baf TTY: open/hangup race fixup
Like in the "TTY: don't allow reopen when ldisc is changing" patch,
this one fixes a TTY WARNING as described in the option 1) there:
1) __tty_hangup from tty_ldisc_hangup to tty_ldisc_enable. During this
section tty_lock is held. However tty_lock is temporarily dropped in
the middle of the function by tty_ldisc_hangup.

The fix is to introduce a new flag which we set during the unlocked
window and check it in tty_reopen too. The flag is TTY_HUPPING and is
cleared after TTY_HUPPED is set.

While at it, remove duplicate TTY_HUPPED set_bit. The one after
calling ops->hangup seems to be more correct. But anyway, we hold
tty_lock, so there should be no difference.

Also document the function it does that kind of crap.

Nicely reproducible with two forked children:
static void do_work(const char *tty)
{
	if (signal(SIGHUP, SIG_IGN) == SIG_ERR) exit(1);
	setsid();
	while (1) {
		int fd = open(tty, O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY);
		if (fd < 0) continue;
		if (ioctl(fd, TIOCSCTTY)) continue;
		if (vhangup()) continue;
		close(fd);
	}
	exit(0);
}

e2efafbf13 TTY: don't allow reopen when ldisc is changing
There are many WARNINGs like the following reported nowadays:
WARNING: at drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1331 tty_open+0x2a2/0x49a()
Hardware name: Latitude E6500
Modules linked in:
Pid: 1207, comm: plymouthd Not tainted 2.6.37-rc3-mmotm1123 #3
Call Trace:
 [<ffffffff8103b189>] warn_slowpath_common+0x80/0x98
 [<ffffffff8103b1b6>] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x17
 [<ffffffff8128a3ab>] tty_open+0x2a2/0x49a
 [<ffffffff810fd53f>] chrdev_open+0x11d/0x146
...

This means tty_reopen is called without TTY_LDISC set. For further
considerations, note tty_lock is held in tty_open. TTY_LDISC is cleared in:
1) __tty_hangup from tty_ldisc_hangup to tty_ldisc_enable. During this
section tty_lock is held. However tty_lock is temporarily dropped in
the middle of the function by tty_ldisc_hangup.

2) tty_release via tty_ldisc_release till the end of tty existence. If
tty->count <= 1, tty_lock is taken, TTY_CLOSING bit set and then
tty_ldisc_release called. tty_reopen checks TTY_CLOSING before checking
TTY_LDISC.

3) tty_set_ldisc from tty_ldisc_halt to tty_ldisc_enable. We:
   * take tty_lock, set TTY_LDISC_CHANGING, put tty_lock
   * call tty_ldisc_halt (clear TTY_LDISC), tty_lock is _not_ held
   * do some other work
   * take tty_lock, call tty_ldisc_enable (set TTY_LDISC), put
     tty_lock

I cannot see how 2) can be a problem, as there I see no race. OTOH, 1)
and 3) can happen without problems. This patch the case 3) by checking
TTY_LDISC_CHANGING along with TTY_CLOSING in tty_reopen. 1) will be
fixed in the following patch.

Nicely reproducible with two processes:
while (1) {
	fd = open("/dev/ttyS1", O_RDWR);
	if (fd < 0) {
		warn("open");
		continue;
	}
	close(fd);
}
--------
while (1) {
        fd = open("/dev/ttyS1", O_RDWR);
        ld1 = 0; ld2 = 2;
        while (1) {
                ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ld1);
                ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ld2);
        }
        close(fd);
}

7f90cfc505 TTY: ldisc, fix open flag handling
When a concrete ldisc open fails in tty_ldisc_open, we forget to clear
TTY_LDISC_OPEN. This causes a false warning on the next ldisc open:
WARNING: at drivers/char/tty_ldisc.c:445 tty_ldisc_open+0x26/0x38()
Hardware name: System Product Name
Modules linked in: ...
Pid: 5251, comm: a.out Tainted: G        W  2.6.32-5-686 #1
Call Trace:
 [<c1030321>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x5e/0x8a

 [<c11936c5>] ? tty_set_ldisc+0x218/0x304
...

So clear the bit when failing...

Introduced in c65c9bc3ef (tty: rewrite the ldisc locking) back in
2.6.31-rc1.

47c344d0bd vcs: make proper usage of the poll flags
Kay Sievers pointed out that usage of POLLIN is well defined by POSIX,
and the current usage here doesn't follow that definition.  So let's
duplicate the same semantics as implemented by sysfs_poll() instead.

1c95ba1e1d tty_ldisc: Fix BUG() on hangup
A kernel BUG when bluetooth rfcomm connection drop while the associated
serial port is open is sometime triggered.

It seems that the line discipline can disappear between the
tty_ldisc_put and tty_ldisc_get. This patch fall back to the N_TTY line
discipline if the previous discipline is not available anymore.

100eeae2c5 TTY: restore tty_ldisc_wait_idle
It was removed in 65b770468e (tty-ldisc: turn ldisc user count into
a proper refcount), but we need to wait for last user to quit the
ldisc before we close it in tty_set_ldisc.

Otherwise weird things start to happen. There might be processes
waiting in tty_read->n_tty_read on tty->read_wait for input to appear
and at that moment, a change of ldisc is fatal. n_tty_close is called,
it frees read_buf and the waiting process is still in the middle of
reading and goes nuts after it is woken.

Previously we prevented close to happen when others are in ldisc ops
by tty_ldisc_wait_idle in tty_set_ldisc. But the commit above removed
that. So revoke the change and test whether there is 1 user (=we), and
allow the close then.

We can do that without ldisc/tty locks, because nobody else can open
the device due to TTY_LDISC_CHANGING bit set, so we in fact wait for
everybody to leave.

I don't understand why tty_ldisc_lock would be needed either when the
counter is an atomic variable, so this is a lockless
tty_ldisc_wait_idle.

On the other hand, if we fail to wait (timeout or signal), we have to
reenable the halted ldiscs, so we take ldisc lock and reuse the setup
path at the end of tty_set_ldisc.

e045fec489 tty: prevent DOS in the flush_to_ldisc
There's a small window inside the flush_to_ldisc function,
where the tty is unlocked and calling ldisc's receive_buf
function. If in this window new buffer is added to the tty,
the processing might never leave the flush_to_ldisc function.

This scenario will hog the cpu, causing other tty processing
starving, and making it impossible to interface the computer
via tty.

I was able to exploit this via pty interface by sending only
control characters to the master input, causing the flush_to_ldisc
to be scheduled, but never actually generate any output.

To reproduce, please run multiple instances of following code.

- SNIP
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        int i, slave, master = getpt();
        char buf[8192];

        sprintf(buf, "%s", ptsname(master));
        grantpt(master);
        unlockpt(master);

        slave = open(buf, O_RDWR);
        if (slave < 0) {
                perror("open slave failed");
                return 1;
        }

        for(i = 0; i < sizeof(buf); i++)
                buf[i] = rand() % 32;

        while(1) {
                write(master, buf, sizeof(buf));
        }

        return 0;
}
- SNIP

The attached patch (based on -next tree) fixes this by checking on the
tty buffer tail. Once it's reached, the current work is rescheduled
and another could run.
