tty: amiserial: fix TIOCSSERIAL permission check

2021-05-14T07:49:55+00:00

commit 1d31a831cc04f5f942de3e7d91edaa52310d3c99 upstream. Changing the port closing_wait parameter is a privileged operation. Add the missing check to TIOCSSERIAL so that -EPERM is returned in case an unprivileged user tries to change the closing-wait setting.

Remove every trace of SERIAL_MAGIC

2019-11-13T11:01:14+00:00

This means removing support for checking magic in amiserial.c (SERIAL_PARANOIA_CHECK option), which was checking a magic field which doesn't currently exist in the struct. That code hasn't built at least since git. Removing the definition from the header is safe anyway as that code was from another driver and not including it.

kill TIOCSERGSTRUCT

2018-10-13T04:50:53+00:00

Once upon a time a bunch of serial drivers used to provide that; today it's only amiserial and it's FUBAR - the structure being copied to userland includes kernel pointers, fields with config-dependent size, etc. No userland code using it could possibly survive - e.g. enabling lockdep definitely changes the layout. Besides, it's a massive infoleak. Kill it. If somebody needs that data for debugging purposes, they can bloody well expose it saner ways. Assuming anyone does debugging of amiserial in the first place, that is. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

kill TIOCSER[SG]WILD

2018-10-13T04:50:52+00:00

the only user is very old setserial rc script and even that (as far back as MCC Interim, AFAICS) doesn't actually fail - just gives one message during the boot ("Cannot scan for wild interrupts") and proceeds past that just fine. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

tty: replace ->proc_fops with ->proc_show

2018-05-16T05:24:30+00:00

Just set up the show callback in the tty_operations, and use proc_create_single_data to create the file without additional boilerplace code. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/

2017-11-08T12:08:12+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

tty: amiserial: drop broken alt-speed support

2017-06-13T09:49:58+00:00

Setting an alt_speed using the ASYNC_SPD flags has been deprecated since v2.1.69, and has been broken since v3.10 and commit 6865ff222cca ("TTY: do not warn about setting speed via SPD_*") without anyone noticing. Drop the broken alt-speed handling altogether, and add a ratelimited warning about using TIOCCSERIAL to change speed as being deprecated. Note that using ASYNC_SPD_CUST is still supported.

Replace with globally

tty: amiserial: fix invalid user-pointer check

2016-11-10T13:41:25+00:00

Drop invalid user-pointer check from TIOCGSERIAL handler. A NULL-pointer can be valid in user space and copy_to_user() takes care of sanity checking. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
