8250_core: Fix unwanted TX chars write

2014-06-07T20:25:30Z

commit b08c9c317e3f7764a91d522cd031639ba42b98cc upstream. On transmit-hold-register empty, serial8250_tx_chars should be called only if we don't use DMA. DMA has its own tx cycle. Signed-off-by: Loic Poulain Reviewed-by: Heikki Krogerus Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

serial: 8250: Fix thread unsafe __dma_tx_complete function

2014-06-07T20:25:30Z

commit f8fd1b0350d3a4581125f5eda6528f5a2c5f9183 upstream. __dma_tx_complete is not protected against concurrent call of serial8250_tx_dma. it can lead to circular tail index corruption or parallel call of serial_tx_dma on the same data portion. This patch fixes this issue by holding the port lock. Signed-off-by: Loic Poulain Reviewed-by: Heikki Krogerus Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: serial: 8250_core.c Bug fix for Exar chips.

2014-05-13T11:59:40Z

commit b790f210fe8423eff881b2a8a93ba5dbc45534d0 upstream. The sleep function was updated to put the serial port to sleep only when necessary. This appears to resolve the errant behavior of the driver as described in Kernel Bug 61961 – "My Exar Corp. XR17C/D152 Dual PCI UART modem does not work with 3.8.0".

serial: 8250: enable UART_BUG_NOMSR for Tegra

2014-02-06T19:08:14Z

commit 3685f19e07802ec4207b52465c408f185b66490e upstream. Tegra chips have 4 or 5 identical UART modules embedded. UARTs C..E have their MODEM-control signals tied off to a static state. However UARTs A and B can optionally route those signals to/from package pins, depending on the exact pinmux configuration. When these signals are not routed to package pins, false interrupts may trigger either temporarily, or permanently, all while not showing up in the IIR; it will read as NO_INT. This will eventually lead to the UART IRQ being disabled due to unhandled interrupts. When this happens, the kernel may print e.g.: irq 68: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) In order to prevent this, enable UART_BUG_NOMSR. This prevents UART_IER_MSI from being enabled, which prevents the false interrupts from triggering. In practice, this is not needed under any of the following conditions: * On Tegra chips after Tegra30, since the HW bug has apparently been fixed. * On UARTs C..E since their MODEM control signals are tied to the correct static state which doesn't trigger the issue. * On UARTs A..B if the MODEM control signals are routed out to package pins, since they will then carry valid signals. However, we ignore these exceptions for now, since they are only relevant if a board actually hooks up more than a 4-wire UART, and no currently supported board does this. If we ever support a board that does, we can refine the algorithm that enables UART_BUG_NOMSR to take those exceptions into account, and/or read a flag from DT/... that indicates that the board has hooked up and pinmux'd more than a 4-wire UART.

serial: 8250: Fix initialisation of Quatech cards with the AMCC PCI chip

tty/serial: at91: Handle shutdown more safely

2014-02-06T19:08:14Z

commit 0cc7c6c7916b1b6f34350ff1473b80b9f7e459c0 upstream. Interrupts were being cleaned up late in the shutdown handler, it is possible that an interrupt can occur and schedule a tasklet that runs after the port is cleaned up. There is a null dereference due to this race condition with the following stacktrace: [] (atmel_tasklet_func+0x514/0x814) from [] (tasklet_action+0x70/0xa8) [] (tasklet_action+0x70/0xa8) from [] (__do_softirq+0x90/0x144) [] (__do_softirq+0x90/0x144) from [] (irq_exit+0x40/0x4c) [] (irq_exit+0x40/0x4c) from [] (handle_IRQ+0x64/0x84) [] (handle_IRQ+0x64/0x84) from [] (__irq_svc+0x40/0x50) [] (__irq_svc+0x40/0x50) from [] (atmel_rx_dma_release+0x88/0xb8) [] (atmel_rx_dma_release+0x88/0xb8) from [] (atmel_shutdown+0x104/0x160) [] (atmel_shutdown+0x104/0x160) from [] (uart_port_shutdown+0x2c/0x38) Signed-off-by: Marek Roszko Acked-by: Leilei Zhao Signed-off-by: Nicolas Ferre Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

serial: amba-pl011: use port lock to guard control register access

2014-01-25T16:27:12Z

commit fe43390702a1b5741fdf217063b05c7612b38303 upstream. When the pl011 is being used for a console, pl011_console_write forces the control register (CR) to enable the UART for transmission and then restores this to the original value afterwards. It does this while holding the port lock. Unfortunately, when the uart is started or shutdown - say in response to userland using the serial device for a terminal - then this updates the control register without any locking. This means we can have pl011_console_write Save CR pl011_startup Initialise CR, e.g. enable receive pl011_console_write Restore old CR with receive not enabled this result is a serial port which doesn't respond to any input. A similar race in reverse could happen when the device is shutdown. We can fix these problems by taking the port lock when updating CR. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

TTY: pmac_zilog, check existence of ports in pmz_console_init()

2014-01-09T20:24:19Z

commit dc1dc2f8a5dd863bf2e79f338fc3ae29e99c683a upstream. When booting a multi-platform m68k kernel on a non-Mac with "console=ttyS0" on the kernel command line, it crashes with: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address (null) Oops: 00000000 PC: [<0013ad28>] __pmz_startup+0x32/0x2a0 ... Call Trace: [<002c5d3e>] pmz_console_setup+0x64/0xe4 The normal tty driver doesn't crash, because init_pmz() checks pmz_ports_count again after calling pmz_probe(). In the serial console initialization path, pmz_console_init() doesn't do this, causing the driver to crash later. Add a check for pmz_ports_count to fix this.
