tty: link tty and port before configuring it as console

2020-01-14T19:08:33+00:00

commit fb2b90014d782d80d7ebf663e50f96d8c507a73c upstream. There seems to be a race condition in tty drivers and I could see on many boot cycles a NULL pointer dereference as tty_init_dev() tries to do 'tty->port->itty = tty' even though tty->port is NULL. 'tty->port' will be set by the driver and if the driver has not yet done it before we open the tty device we can get to this situation. By adding some extra debug prints, I noticed that: 6.650130: uart_add_one_port 6.663849: register_console 6.664846: tty_open 6.674391: tty_init_dev 6.675456: tty_port_link_device uart_add_one_port() registers the console, as soon as it registers, the userspace tries to use it and that leads to tty_open() but uart_add_one_port() has not yet done tty_port_link_device() and so tty->port is not yet configured when control reaches tty_init_dev(). Further look into the code and tty_port_link_device() is done by uart_add_one_port(). After registering the console uart_add_one_port() will call tty_port_register_device_attr_serdev() and tty_port_link_device() is called from this. Call add tty_port_link_device() before uart_configure_port() is done and add a check in tty_port_link_device() so that it only links the port if it has not been done yet.

Merge branch 'next-lockdown' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security

2019-09-28T15:14:15+00:00

Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris: "This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others. From the original description: This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature, intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel. When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted. Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand. The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer to not requiring external patches. There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline: - Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/ - Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven, rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism. The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be permitted. The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line: lockdown={integrity|confidentiality} Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract confidential information from the kernel are also disabled. This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and overriden by kernel configuration. New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in include/linux/security.h for details. The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

lockdown: Lock down TIOCSSERIAL

Lock down TIOCSSERIAL as that can be used to change the ioport and irq settings on a serial port. This only appears to be an issue for the serial drivers that use the core serial code. All other drivers seem to either ignore attempts to change port/irq or give an error.

tty: serial_core: Set port active bit in uart_port_activate

2019-06-18T07:52:26+00:00

A bug was introduced by commit b3b576461864 ("tty: serial_core: convert uart_open to use tty_port_open"). It caused a constant warning printed into the system log regarding the tty and port counter mismatch: [ 21.644197] ttyS ttySx: tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 2 in case if session hangup was detected so the warning is printed starting from the second open-close iteration. Particularly the problem was discovered in situation when there is a serial tty device without hardware back-end being setup. It is considered by the tty-serial subsystems as a hardware problem with session hang up. In this case uart_startup() will return a positive value with TTY_IO_ERROR flag set in corresponding tty_struct instance. The same value will get passed to be returned from the activate() callback and then being returned from tty_port_open(). But since in this case tty_port_block_til_ready() isn't called the TTY_PORT_ACTIVE flag isn't set (while the method had been called before tty_port_open conversion was introduced and the rest of the subsystem code expected the bit being set in this case), which prevents the uart_hangup() method to perform any cleanups including the tty port counter setting to zero. So the next attempt to open/close the tty device will discover the counters mismatch. In order to fix the problem we need to manually set the TTY_PORT_ACTIVE flag in case if uart_startup() returned a positive value. In this case the hang up procedure will perform a full set of cleanup actions including the port ref-counter resetting.

TTY: serial_core, add ->install

2019-04-25T09:37:41+00:00

We need to compute the uart state only on the first open. This is usually what is done in the ->install hook. serial_core used to do this in ->open on every open. So move it to ->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.
