tty: Fix lookahead_buf crash with serdev

2022-08-30T12:31:53+00:00

Do not follow a NULL pointer if the tty_port_client_operations does not implement the ->lookahead_buf() callback, which is the case with serdev's ttyport.

Pull tty / serial driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of tty and serial driver changes for 6.0-rc1. It was delayed from last week as I wanted to make sure the last commit here got some good testing in linux-next and elsewhere as it seemed to show up only late in testing for some reason. Nothing major here, just lots of cleanups from Jiri and Ilpo to make the tty core cleaner (Jiri) and the rs485 code simpler to use (Ilpo). Also included in here is the obligatory n_gsm updates from Daniel Starke and lots of tiny driver updates and minor fixes and tweaks for other smaller serial drivers.

tty: use new tty_insert_flip_string_and_push_buffer() in pty_write()

2022-07-08T13:16:28+00:00

There is a race in pty_write(). pty_write() can be called in parallel with e.g. ioctl(TIOCSTI) or ioctl(TCXONC) which also inserts chars to the buffer. Provided, tty_flip_buffer_push() in pty_write() is called outside the lock, it can commit inconsistent tail. This can lead to out of bounds writes and other issues. See the Link below. To fix this, we have to introduce a new helper called tty_insert_flip_string_and_push_buffer(). It does both tty_insert_flip_string() and tty_flip_buffer_commit() under the port lock. It also calls queue_work(), but outside the lock. See 71a174b39f10 (pty: do tty_flip_buffer_push without port->lock in pty_write) for the reasons. Keep the helper internal-only (in drivers' tty.h). It is not intended to be used widely.

tty: Implement lookahead to process XON/XOFF timely

2022-06-10T11:51:31+00:00

When tty is not read from, XON/XOFF may get stuck into an intermediate buffer. As those characters are there to do software flow-control, it is not very useful. In the case where neither end reads from ttys, the receiving ends might not be able receive the XOFF characters and just keep sending more data to the opposite direction. This problem is almost guaranteed to occur with DMA which sends data in large chunks. If TTY is slow to process characters, that is, eats less than given amount in receive_buf, invoke lookahead for the rest of the chars to process potential XON/XOFF characters. We need to keep track of how many characters have been processed by the lookahead to avoid processing the flow control char again on the normal path. Bookkeeping occurs parallel on two layers (tty_buffer and n_tty) to avoid passing the lookahead_count through the whole call chain. When a flow-control char is processed, two things must occur: a) it must not be treated as normal char b) if not yet processed, flow-control actions need to be taken The return value of n_tty_receive_char_flow_ctrl() tells caller a), and b) is kept internal to n_tty_receive_char_flow_ctrl(). If characters were previous looked ahead, __receive_buf() makes two calls to the appropriate n_tty_receive_buf_* function. First call is made with lookahead_done=true for the characters that were subject to lookahead earlier and then with lookahead=false for the new characters. Either of the calls might be skipped when it has no characters to handle.

tty: fix deadlock caused by calling printk() under tty_port->lock

2022-05-13T03:38:37+00:00

pty_write() invokes kmalloc() which may invoke a normal printk() to print failure message. This can cause a deadlock in the scenario reported by syz-bot below: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 ---- ---- ---- lock(console_owner); lock(&port_lock_key); lock(&port->lock); lock(&port_lock_key); lock(&port->lock); lock(console_owner); As commit dbdda842fe96 ("printk: Add console owner and waiter logic to load balance console writes") said, such deadlock can be prevented by using printk_deferred() in kmalloc() (which is invoked in the section guarded by the port->lock). But there are too many printk() on the kmalloc() path, and kmalloc() can be called from anywhere, so changing printk() to printk_deferred() is too complicated and inelegant. Therefore, this patch chooses to specify __GFP_NOWARN to kmalloc(), so that printk() will not be called, and this deadlock problem can be avoided. Syzbot reported the following lockdep error: ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 5.4.143-00237-g08ccc19a-dirty #10 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ syz-executor.4/29420 is trying to acquire lock: ffffffff8aedb2a0 (console_owner){....}-{0:0}, at: console_trylock_spinning kernel/printk/printk.c:1752 [inline] ffffffff8aedb2a0 (console_owner){....}-{0:0}, at: vprintk_emit+0x2ca/0x470 kernel/printk/printk.c:2023 but task is already holding lock: ffff8880119c9158 (&port->lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: pty_write+0xf4/0x1f0 drivers/tty/pty.c:120 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #2 (&port->lock){-.-.}-{2:2}: __raw_spin_lock_irqsave include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:110 [inline] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x35/0x50 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:159 tty_port_tty_get drivers/tty/tty_port.c:288 [inline] <-- lock(&port->lock); tty_port_default_wakeup+0x1d/0xb0 drivers/tty/tty_port.c:47 serial8250_tx_chars+0x530/0xa80 drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_port.c:1767 serial8250_handle_irq.part.0+0x31f/0x3d0 drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_port.c:1854 serial8250_handle_irq drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_port.c:1827 [inline] <-- lock(&port_lock_key); serial8250_default_handle_irq+0xb2/0x220 drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_port.c:1870 serial8250_interrupt+0xfd/0x200 drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_core.c:126 __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x109/0xa50 kernel/irq/handle.c:156 [...] -> #1 (&port_lock_key){-.-.}-{2:2}: __raw_spin_lock_irqsave include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:110 [inline] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x35/0x50 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:159 serial8250_console_write+0x184/0xa40 drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_port.c:3198 <-- lock(&port_lock_key); call_console_drivers kernel/printk/printk.c:1819 [inline] console_unlock+0x8cb/0xd00 kernel/printk/printk.c:2504 vprintk_emit+0x1b5/0x470 kernel/printk/printk.c:2024 <-- lock(console_owner); vprintk_func+0x8d/0x250 kernel/printk/printk_safe.c:394 printk+0xba/0xed kernel/printk/printk.c:2084 register_console+0x8b3/0xc10 kernel/printk/printk.c:2829 univ8250_console_init+0x3a/0x46 drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_core.c:681 console_init+0x49d/0x6d3 kernel/printk/printk.c:2915 start_kernel+0x5e9/0x879 init/main.c:713 secondary_startup_64+0xa4/0xb0 arch/x86/kernel/head_64.S:241 -> #0 (console_owner){....}-{0:0}: [...] lock_acquire+0x127/0x340 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:4734 console_trylock_spinning kernel/printk/printk.c:1773 [inline] <-- lock(console_owner); vprintk_emit+0x307/0x470 kernel/printk/printk.c:2023 vprintk_func+0x8d/0x250 kernel/printk/printk_safe.c:394 printk+0xba/0xed kernel/printk/printk.c:2084 fail_dump lib/fault-inject.c:45 [inline] should_fail+0x67b/0x7c0 lib/fault-inject.c:144 __should_failslab+0x152/0x1c0 mm/failslab.c:33 should_failslab+0x5/0x10 mm/slab_common.c:1224 slab_pre_alloc_hook mm/slab.h:468 [inline] slab_alloc_node mm/slub.c:2723 [inline] slab_alloc mm/slub.c:2807 [inline] __kmalloc+0x72/0x300 mm/slub.c:3871 kmalloc include/linux/slab.h:582 [inline] tty_buffer_alloc+0x23f/0x2a0 drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:175 __tty_buffer_request_room+0x156/0x2a0 drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:273 tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag+0x93/0x250 drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c:318 tty_insert_flip_string include/linux/tty_flip.h:37 [inline] pty_write+0x126/0x1f0 drivers/tty/pty.c:122 <-- lock(&port->lock); n_tty_write+0xa7a/0xfc0 drivers/tty/n_tty.c:2356 do_tty_write drivers/tty/tty_io.c:961 [inline] tty_write+0x512/0x930 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1045 __vfs_write+0x76/0x100 fs/read_write.c:494 [...] other info that might help us debug this: Chain exists of: console_owner --> &port_lock_key --> &port->lock Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220511061951.1114-2-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220510113809.80626-2-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Fixes: b6da31b2c07c ("tty: Fix data race in tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag") Signed-off-by: Qi Zheng Acked-by: Jiri Slaby Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Cc: Akinobu Mita Cc: Vlastimil Babka Cc: Steven Rostedt (Google) Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton

tty: reformat kernel-doc in tty_buffer.c

2021-11-26T15:27:43+00:00

Kernel-doc is a bit strict about some formatting. So fix these: 1) When there is a tab in comments, it thinks the line is a continuation one. So the description of the functions end up as descriptions of the last parameter described. Remove the tabs. 2) Remove newlines before parameters description and after the comments. This was not wrong per se, only inconsistent with the rest of the file. 3) Add periods to the end of sentences where appropriate. 4) Add "()" to function names and "%" to constants, so that they are properly highlighted.

At the same time, the workqueue will do the flush_to_ldisc to pop data in a loop until there is no more data left. When the sender and workqueue running in different core, the sender sends data fastly in full time which will result in workqueue doing work in loop for a long time and occuring softlockup in flush_to_ldisc with kernel configured without preempt. So I add need_resched check and cond_resched in the flush_to_ldisc loop to avoid it.
