2013-05-21ttyprintk: Fix NULL pointer deref by setting tty_port ops after initializing ↵Darrick J. Wong1-1/+1
port tty_port_init() zeroes out the tty port, which means that we have to set the ops pointer /after/, not before this call. Otherwise, tty_port_open will crash when it tries to deref ops, which is now a NULL pointer. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

2012-11-16TTY: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of driversJiri Slaby1-1/+3
After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this assumption. To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places. This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed. This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

2012-08-16TTY: tty_alloc_driver() returns error pointersDan Carpenter1-2/+2
We changed these from alloc_tty_driver() to tty_alloc_driver() so the error handling needs to modified to check for IS_ERR() instead of NULL. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Acked-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2012-08-14TTY: use tty_port_link_deviceJiri Slaby1-0/+1
So now for those drivers that can use neither tty_port_install nor tty_port_register_driver but still have tty_port available before tty_register_driver we use newly added tty_port_link_device. The rest of the drivers that still do not provide tty_struct <-> tty_port link will have to be converted to implement tty->ops->install.

2012-08-14TTY: add support for unnumbered device nodesJiri Slaby1-13/+4
This allows drivers like ttyprintk to avoid hacks to create an unnumbered node in /dev. It used to set TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV in flags and call device_create on its own. That is incorrect, because TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV may be set only if tty_register_device is called explicitly.

2012-08-11TTY: ttyprintk, initialize tty_port earlierJiri Slaby1-4/+4
After tty_register_driver is called, it is too late to initialize a guy with which we operate in open. When a process already called open(2) on that node, the structures may be in use uninitialized. Move the initialization prior to tty_register_driver.

2012-08-11TTY: ttyprintk, don't touch behind tty->write_bufJiri Slaby1-1/+1
If a user provides a buffer larger than a tty->write_buf chunk and passes '\r' at the end of the buffer, we touch an out-of-bound memory. Add a check there to prevent this.

2012-08-11TTY: ttyprintk, unregister tty driver on failureJiri Slaby1-0/+1
When the tty_printk driver fails to create a node in sysfs, the system crashes. It is because the driver registers a tty driver and frees it without deregistering it first. The fix is easy: add a call to tty_unregister_driver to the fail path. This is very unlikely to happen in usual environment => no need for stable. The crash occurs at some place where we iterate over tty drivers first. It may look like this: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffffffff84 IP: [<ffffffff81278d56>] tty_open+0xd6/0x650 PGD 1a0d067 PUD 1a0e067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU 0 Pid: 1183, comm: boot.localnet Tainted: G W 3.5.0-rc7-next-20120716+ #369 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81278d56>] [<ffffffff81278d56>] tty_open+0xd6/0x650 RSP: 0018:ffff8800162b3b98 EFLAGS: 00010207 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff880016ba6200 RCX: 0000000000002208 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 00000000000000d0 RDI: ffffffff81a35080 RBP: ffff8800162b3c08 R08: ffffffff81276f42 R09: 0000000000400040 R10: ffff8800161dc005 R11: ffff8800188ee048 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffffffffffffff58 R14: 0000000000400040 R15: 0000000000008000 FS: 00007f3684abd700(0000) GS:ffff880018e00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: ffffffffffffff84 CR3: 000000001503e000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process boot.localnet (pid: 1183, threadinfo ffff8800162b2000, task ffff8800188c5880) Stack: ffff8800162b3c08 ffffffff81363d63 ffffffff81a62940 ffff8800189b4e88 ffff8800188c5880 ffffffff81123180 0000000000000000 ffffffff18b20600 0000000000000000 ffff8800189b4e88 ffff880016ba6200 ffff880018b20600 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81363d63>] ? kobj_lookup+0x103/0x160 [<ffffffff81123180>] ? mount_fs+0x110/0x110 [<ffffffff81123a9c>] chrdev_open+0x9c/0x1a0 [<ffffffff81123a00>] ? cdev_put+0x30/0x30 [<ffffffff8111de76>] do_dentry_open.isra.19+0x1e6/0x270 [<ffffffff8111df65>] finish_open+0x65/0xa0 [<ffffffff8112dc9e>] do_last.isra.52+0x26e/0xd80 [<ffffffff8112b163>] ? inode_permission+0x13/0x50 [<ffffffff8112b203>] ? link_path_walk+0x63/0x940 [<ffffffff8112e85b>] path_openat+0xab/0x3d0 [<ffffffff8112ef5d>] do_filp_open+0x3d/0xa0 [<ffffffff8113ba72>] ? alloc_fd+0xd2/0x120 [<ffffffff8111eee3>] do_sys_open+0xf3/0x1d0 [<ffffffff8111efdc>] sys_open+0x1c/0x20 [<ffffffff815b5fe2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: Samo Pogacnik <samo_pogacnik@t-2.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2012-03-08TTY: remove re-assignments to tty_driver membersJiri Slaby1-2/+0
All num, magic and owner are set by alloc_tty_driver. No need to re-set them on each allocation site. pti driver sets something different to what it passes to alloc_tty_driver. It is not a bug, since we don't use the lines parameter in any way. Anyway this is fixed, and now we do the right thing.

Ttyprintk is a pseudo TTY driver, which allows users to make printk messages, via output to ttyprintk device. It is possible to store "console" messages inline with kernel messages for better analyses of the boot process, for example.
