When the uart port being suspended is a console and consoles are not suspending (kernel command line contains no_console_suspend), then no action is performed for that port, and the function can return early. If the function has not returned early, then one of the conditions is not true, so the expression (console_suspend_enabled || !uart_console(uport)) must be true and can be eliminated. Similarly, the expression (console_suspend_enabled && uart_console(uport)) simplifies to just uart_console(uport).

BRKINT and ISIG requires input and output flush when a signal char is received. However, the order of operations is significant since parallel i/o may be ongoing. Merge the signal handling for BRKINT with ISIG handling. Process the signal first. This ensures any ongoing i/o is aborted; without this, a waiting writer may continue writing after the flush occurs and after the signal char has been echoed. Write lock the termios_rwsem, which excludes parallel writers from pushing new i/o until after the output buffers are flushed; claiming the write lock is necessary anyway to exclude parallel readers while the read buffer is flushed. Subclass the termios_rwsem for ptys since the slave pty performing the flush may appear to reorder the termios_rwsem->tty buffer lock lock order; adding annotation clarifies that slave tty_buffer lock-> slave termios_rwsem -> master tty_buffer lock is a valid lock order. Flush the echo buffer. In this context, the echo buffer is 'output'. Otherwise, the output will appear discontinuous because the output buffer was cleared which contains older output than the echo buffer. Open-code the read buffer flush since the input worker does not need kicking (this is the input worker).

The pty driver does not clear its write buffer when commanded. This is to avoid an apparent deadlock between parallel flushes from both pty ends; specifically when handling either BRK or INTR input. However, parallel flushes from this source is not possible since the pty master can never be set to BRKINT or ISIG. Parallel flushes from other sources are possible but these do not threaten deadlocks. Annotate the tty buffer mutex for lockdep to represent the nested tty_buffer locking which occurs when the pty slave is processing input (its buffer mutex held) and receives INTR or BRK and acquires the linked tty buffer mutex via tty_buffer_flush().

In canon mode, the read buffer head will advance over the buffer tail if the input > 4095 bytes without receiving a line termination char. Discard additional input until a line termination is received. Before evaluating for overflow, the 'room' value is normalized for I_PARMRK and 1 byte is reserved for line termination (even in !icanon mode, in case the mode is switched). The following table shows the transform: actual buffer | 'room' value before overflow calc space avail | !I_PARMRK | I_PARMRK -------------------------------------------------- 0 | -1 | -1 1 | 0 | 0 2 | 1 | 0 3 | 2 | 0 4+ | 3 | 1 When !icanon or when icanon and the read buffer contains newlines, normalized 'room' values of -1 and 0 are clamped to 0, and 'overflow' is 0, so read_head is not adjusted and the input i/o loop exits (setting no_room if called from flush_to_ldisc()). No input is discarded since the reader does have input available to read which ensures forward progress. When icanon and the read buffer does not contain newlines and the normalized 'room' value is 0, then overflow and room are reset to 1, so that the i/o loop will process the next input char normally (except for parity errors which are ignored). Thus, erasures, signalling chars, 7-bit mode, etc. will continue to be handled properly. If the input char processed was not a line termination char, then the canon_head index will not have advanced, so the normalized 'room' value will now be -1 and 'overflow' will be set, which indicates the read_head can safely be reset, effectively erasing the last char processed. If the input char processed was a line termination, then the canon_head index will have advanced, so 'overflow' is cleared to 0, the read_head is not reset, and 'room' is cleared to 0, which exits the i/o loop (because the reader now have input available to read which ensures forward progress). Note that it is possible for a line termination to be received, and for the reader to copy the line to the user buffer before the input i/o loop is ready to process the next input char. This is why the i/o loop recomputes the room/overflow state with every input char while handling overflow. Finally, if the input data was processed without receiving a line termination (so that overflow is still set), the pty driver must receive a write wakeup. A pty writer may be waiting to write more data in n_tty_write() but without unthrottling here that wakeup will not arrive, and forward progress will halt. (Normally, the pty writer is woken when the reader reads data out of the buffer and more space become available).

If PARMRK is enabled, the available read buffer space computation is overly-pessimistic, which results in severely throttled i/o, even in the absence of parity errors. For example, if the 4k read buffer contains 1k processed data, the input worker will compute available space of 333 bytes, despite 3k being available. At 1365 chars of processed data, 0 space available is computed. *Divide remaining space* by 3, truncating down (if left == 2, left = 0).

Add commit_head buffer index, which the producer-side publishes after input processing in non-canon mode. This ensures the consumer-side observes correctly-ordered writes in non-canonical mode (ie., the buffer data is written before the buffer index is advanced). Fix consumer-side uses of read_cnt() to use commit_head instead. Add required memory barriers to the tail index to guarantee the consumer-side has completed the loads before the producer-side begins writing new data. Open-code the producer-side receive_room() into the i/o loop. Remove no-longer-referenced receive_room().

The tty driver will be mistakenly throttled if a line termination has not been received, and the line exceeds 3967 chars. Thus, it is possible for the driver to stop sending when it has not yet sent the newline. This does not apply to the pty driver. Don't throttle until at least one line termination has been received.

The input worker never reschedules itself; it only processes input until either there is no more input or the read buffer is full. So the reader is responsible for restarting the input worker only if the read buffer was previously full (no_room == 1) _and_ space is now available to process more input because the reader has consumed data from the read buffer. However, computing the actual space available is not required to determine if the reader has consumed data from the read buffer. This condition is evaluated in 5 situations, each of which the space avail is already known: 1. n_tty_flush_buffer() - the read buffer is empty; kick the worker 2. n_tty_set_termios() - no data has been consumed; do not kick the worker (although it may have kicked the reader so data _will be_ consumed) 3. n_tty_check_unthrottle - avail space > 3968; kick the worker 4. n_tty_read, before leaving - only kick the worker if the reader has moved the tail. This prevents unnecessarily kicking the worker when timeout-style reading is used. 5. n_tty_read, before sleeping - although it is possible for the read buffer to be full and input_available_p() to be false, this can only happen when the input worker is racing the reader, in which case the reader will have been woken and won't sleep. Rename n_tty_set_room() to n_tty_kick_worker() to reflect what the function actually does.

The implementation of flushing the RX FIFO breaks in a number of cases, it is impossible to ensure an complete flush of the RX FIFO due to the hardware not allowing the use of the FIFOs when the receiver is disabled (Reading from the FIFO register does not remove it from the FIFO when the RX_EN=0 or RX_DIS=1). Additionally during an initial set_termios call where RX_DIS=1 causes a hang waiting forever for the RX FIFO to empty. On top of this the FIFO will be cleared by the use of the RXRST bits on the Control Register, making the RX flush pointless (as it does not preserve the data read anyway). Due to the TXRST the TX FIFO and transmitter can be interrupted during frame trasmission, causing corruption and additionally data lost in the FIFO. Most other serial drivers do not flush or clear the FIFOs during a termios configuration change and as such do not have issues with corruption. For this UART controller is it required that the TXRST/RXRST bit be flagged during the change, this means that the data in the FIFO will be dropped when changing configuration. In order to prevent data loss and corruption of the transmitted data, wait until the TX FIFO is empty before changing the configuration. The performance of this may cause the set_termios call to take a longer amount of time especially on lower baud rates, however it is comparable to the same performance hit that a console_write call costs.

When the kernel command line parameter, no_console_suspend, is used, the console should continue to output console messages during and after system suspend. For a serial console, the serial core ensures that the device is not shutdown when no_console_suspend is specified. However, the default operation of the pnp bus will disable and suspend the device and no further output occurs. When registering the 8250 port, if the serial device is a console set the PNP_CONSOLE capability, which prevents device power-off if consoles are not suspending.

Initialize them when they are declared so that user provided setting are not overwritten. - msm_set_baud_rate() is anyway called in uart_set_options when it calls msm_set_termios(). msm_reset() is called when we change the baud rate.

To end a DMA transfer which did not consume a whole buffer (e.g. one character only), a RX timer is used. When lots of data are received the DMA transfer will complete and setup another DMA transfer, which in turn might complete again. In this cases, it is not necessary to abort the DMA transfers using the RX timer. This change pushes the RX timer timeout into the future each time a DMA transfer completed. Aborting the DMA was not very harmful, since the next received character lead to setup of another RX DMA.

Commit 26df6d13 ("tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE") allows a process which has opened a pty master to send _any_ signal to the process group of the pty slave. Although potentially exploitable by a malicious program running a setuid program on a pty slave, it's unknown if this exploit currently exists. Limit to signals actually used.

The vcs device's poll/fasync support relies on the vt notifier to signal changes to the screen content. Notifier invocations were missing for changes that comes through the selection interface though. Fix that. Tested with BRLTTY 5.2.
