tty: hvc_iucv: fix off-by-one in number of supported devices

2026-06-01T15:35:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit f2a880e802ad12d1e38039d1334fb1475d0f5241 ] MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES == HVC_ALLOC_TTY_ADAPTERS == 8. This is the number of entries in: static struct hvc_iucv_private *hvc_iucv_table[MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES]; Sometimes hvc_iucv_table[] is limited by: (a) if (num > hvc_iucv_devices) // for error detection or (b) for (i = 0; i < hvc_iucv_devices; i++) // in 2 places (so these 2 don't agree; second one appears to be correct to me.) hvc_iucv_devices can be 0..8. This is a counter. (c) if (hvc_iucv_devices > MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES) If hvc_iucv_devices == 8, (a) allows the code to access hvc_iucv_table[8]. Oops.

tty: n_gsm: fix flow control handling in tx path

2026-06-01T15:35:13+00:00

commit 59ff0680ecbfec742b1e0381e7cc46b41eb06647 upstream. The current implementation constipates all transmission paths during flow control except for flow control frames. However, these may not be located at the beginning of the transmission queue of the control channel. Ensure that flow control frames in the transmission queue for the control channel are always handled even if constipated by skipping through other messages.

tty: n_gsm: fix deadlock and link starvation in outgoing data path

2026-06-01T15:35:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0af021678d5d30c31f5a6b631f404ead3575212a ] The current implementation queues up new control and user packets as needed and processes this queue down to the ldisc in the same code path. That means that the upper and the lower layer are hard coupled in the code. Due to this deadlocks can happen as seen below while transmitting data, especially during ldisc congestion. Furthermore, the data channels starve the control channel on high transmission load on the ldisc. Introduce an additional control channel data queue to prevent timeouts and link hangups during ldisc congestion. This is being processed before the user channel data queue in gsm_data_kick(), i.e. with the highest priority. Put the queue to ldisc data path into a workqueue and trigger it whenever new data has been put into the transmission queue. Change gsm_dlci_data_sweep() accordingly to fill up the transmission queue until TX_THRESH_HI. This solves the locking issue, keeps latency low and provides good performance on high data load. Note that now all packets from a DLCI are removed from the internal queue if the associated DLCI was closed. This ensures that no data is sent by the introduced write task to an already closed DLCI.

serial: uartlite: fix PM runtime usage count underflow on probe

2026-04-18T08:33:18+00:00

commit d54801cd509515f674a5aac1d3ea1401d2a05863 upstream. ulite_probe() calls pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() at the end of probe without holding a corresponding PM runtime reference for non-console ports. During ulite_assign(), uart_add_one_port() triggers uart_configure_port() which calls ulite_pm() via uart_change_pm(). For non-console ports, the UART core performs a balanced get/put cycle: uart_change_pm(ON) -> ulite_pm() -> pm_runtime_get_sync() +1 uart_change_pm(OFF) -> ulite_pm() -> pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() -1 This leaves no spare reference for the pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() at the end of probe. The PM runtime core prevents the count from actually going below zero, and instead triggers a "Runtime PM usage count underflow!" warning. For console ports the bug is masked: the UART core skips the uart_change_pm(OFF) call, so the UART core's unbalanced get happens to pair with probe's trailing put. Add pm_runtime_get_noresume() before pm_runtime_enable() to take an explicit probe-owned reference that the trailing pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() can release. This ensures a correct usage count regardless of whether the port is a console.

serial: 8250: Add late synchronize_irq() to shutdown to handle DW UART BUSY

2026-04-18T08:33:18+00:00

commit e0a368ae79531ff92105a2692f10d83052055856 upstream. When DW UART is !uart_16550_compatible, it can indicate BUSY at any point (when under constant Rx pressure) unless a complex sequence of steps is performed. Any LCR write can run a foul with the condition that prevents writing LCR while the UART is BUSY, which triggers BUSY_DETECT interrupt that seems unmaskable using IER bits. Normal flow is that dw8250_handle_irq() handles BUSY_DETECT condition by reading USR register. This BUSY feature, however, breaks the assumptions made in serial8250_do_shutdown(), which runs synchronize_irq() after clearing IER and assumes no interrupts can occur after that point but then proceeds to update LCR, which on DW UART can trigger an interrupt. If serial8250_do_shutdown() releases the interrupt handler before the handler has run and processed the BUSY_DETECT condition by read the USR register, the IRQ is not deasserted resulting in interrupt storm that triggers "irq x: nobody cared" warning leading to disabling the IRQ. Add late synchronize_irq() into serial8250_do_shutdown() to ensure BUSY_DETECT from DW UART is handled before port's interrupt handler is released. Alternative would be to add DW UART specific shutdown function but it would mostly duplicate the generic code and the extra synchronize_irq() seems pretty harmless in serial8250_do_shutdown().

serial: 8250: Fix TX deadlock when using DMA

2026-04-18T08:33:17+00:00

commit a424a34b8faddf97b5af41689087e7a230f79ba7 upstream. `dmaengine_terminate_async` does not guarantee that the `__dma_tx_complete` callback will run. The callback is currently the only place where `dma->tx_running` gets cleared. If the transaction is canceled and the callback never runs, then `dma->tx_running` will never get cleared and we will never schedule new TX DMA transactions again. This change makes it so we clear `dma->tx_running` after we terminate the DMA transaction. This is "safe" because `serial8250_tx_dma_flush` is holding the UART port lock. The first thing the callback does is also grab the UART port lock, so access to `dma->tx_running` is serialized.

serial: 8250_dw: handle clock enable errors in runtime_resume

2026-03-04T12:20:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit d31228143a489ba6ba797896a07541ce06828c09 ] Add error checking for clk_prepare_enable() calls in dw8250_runtime_resume(). Currently if either clock fails to enable, the function returns success while leaving clocks in inconsistent state. This change implements comprehensive error handling by checking the return values of both clk_prepare_enable() calls. If the second clock enable operation fails after the first clock has already been successfully enabled, the code now properly cleans up by disabling and unpreparing the first clock before returning. The error code is then propagated to the caller, ensuring that clock enable failures are properly reported rather than being silently ignored.
