[ Upstream commit d3d079bde07e1b7deaeb57506dc0b86010121d17 ]

When sending x_char in stm32_usart_transmit_chars(), driver can overwrite
the value of TDR register by the value of x_char. If this happens, the
previous value that was present in TDR register will not be sent through
uart.

This code checks if the previous value in TDR register is sent before
writing the x_char value into register.

commit a2ab75b8e76e455af7867e3835fd9cdf386b508f upstream.

In the current implementation the user may open a virtual tty which then
could fail to establish the underlying DLCI. The function gsmtty_open()
gets stuck in tty_port_block_til_ready() while waiting for a carrier rise.
This happens if the remote side fails to acknowledge the link establishment
request in time or completely. At some point gsm_dlci_close() is called
to abort the link establishment attempt. The function tries to inform the
associated virtual tty by performing a hangup. But the blocking loop within
tty_port_block_til_ready() is not informed about this event.
The patch proposed here fixes this by resetting the initialization state of
the virtual tty to ensure the loop exits and triggering it to make
tty_port_block_til_ready() return.

commit 687f9ad43c52501f46164758e908a5dd181a87fc upstream.

The function gsm_process_modem() exists to handle modem status bits of
incoming frames. This includes incoming MSC (modem status command) frames
and convergence layer type 2 data frames. The function, however, was only
designed to handle MSC frames as it expects the command length. Within
gsm_dlci_data() it is wrongly assumed that this is the same as the data
frame length. This is only true if the data frame contains only 1 byte of
payload.

This patch names the length parameter of gsm_process_modem() in a generic
manner to reflect its association. It also corrects all calls to the
function to handle the variable number of modem status octets correctly in
both cases.

commit c19d93542a6081577e6da9bf5e887979c72e80c1 upstream.

tty flow control is handled via gsmtty_throttle() and gsmtty_unthrottle().
Both functions propagate the outgoing hardware flow control state to the
remote side via MSC (modem status command) frames. The local state is taken
from the RTS (ready to send) flag of the tty. However, RTS gets mapped to
DTR (data terminal ready), which is wrong.
This patch corrects this by mapping RTS to RTS.

commit 96b169f05cdcc844b400695184d77e42071d14f2 upstream.

The here fixed commit made the tty hangup asynchronous to avoid a circular
locking warning. I could not reproduce this warning. Furthermore, due to
the asynchronous hangup the function call now gets queued up while the
underlying tty is being freed. Depending on the timing this results in a
NULL pointer access in the global work queue scheduler. To be precise in
process_one_work(). Therefore, the previous commit made the issue worse
which it tried to fix.

This patch fixes this by falling back to the old behavior which uses a
blocking tty hangup call before freeing up the associated tty.

commit e3b7468f082d106459e86e8dc6fb9bdd65553433 upstream.

Trying to open a DLCI by sending a SABM frame may fail with a timeout.
The link is closed on the initiator side without informing the responder
about this event. The responder assumes the link is open after sending a
UA frame to answer the SABM frame. The link gets stuck in a half open
state.

This patch fixes this by initiating the proper link termination procedure
after link setup timeout instead of silently closing it down.

commit 57435c42400ec147a527b2313188b649e81e449e upstream.

n_gsm is based on the 3GPP 07.010 and its newer version is the 3GPP 27.010.
See https://portal.3gpp.org/desktopmodules/Specifications/SpecificationDetails.aspx?specificationId=1516
The changes from 07.010 to 27.010 are non-functional. Therefore, I refer to
the newer 27.010 here. Chapter 5.2.1.2 describes the encoding of the
C/R (command/response) bit. Table 1 shows that the actual encoding of the
C/R bit is inverted if the associated frame is sent by the responder.

The referenced commit fixed here further broke the internal meaning of this
bit in the outgoing path by always setting the C/R bit regardless of the
frame type.

This patch fixes both by setting the C/R bit always consistently for
command (1) and response (0) frames and inverting it later for the
responder where necessary. The meaning of this bit in the debug output
is being preserved and shows the bit as if it was encoded by the initiator.
This reflects only the frame type rather than the encoded combination of
communication side and frame type.

n_gsm is based on the 3GPP 07.010 and its newer version is the 3GPP 27.010.
See https://portal.3gpp.org/desktopmodules/Specifications/SpecificationDetails.aspx?specificationId=1516
The changes from 07.010 to 27.010 are non-functional. Therefore, I refer to
the newer 27.010 here. Chapter 5.4.6.3.7 describes the encoding of the
control signal octet used by the MSC (modem status command). The same
encoding is also used in convergence layer type 2 as described in chapter
5.5.2. Table 7 and 24 both require the DV (data valid) bit to be set 1 for
outgoing control signal octets sent by the DTE (data terminal equipment),
i.e. for the initiator side.
Currently, the DV bit is only set if CD (carrier detect) is on, regardless
of the side.

This patch fixes this behavior by setting the DV bit on the initiator side
unconditionally.

commit eebb0f4e894f1e9577a56b337693d1051dd6ebfd upstream.

UART drivers are meant to use the port spinlock within certain
methods, to protect against reentrancy. The sc16is7xx driver does
very little locking, presumably because when added it triggers
"scheduling while atomic" errors. This is due to the use of mutexes
within the regmap abstraction layer, and the mutex implementation's
habit of sleeping the current thread while waiting for access.
Unfortunately this lack of interlocking can lead to corruption of
outbound data, which occurs when the buffer used for I2C transmission
is used simultaneously by two threads - a work queue thread running
sc16is7xx_tx_proc, and an IRQ thread in sc16is7xx_port_irq, both
of which can call sc16is7xx_handle_tx.

An earlier patch added efr_lock, a mutex that controls access to the
EFR register. This mutex is already claimed in the IRQ handler, and
all that is required is to claim the same mutex in sc16is7xx_tx_proc.

See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/4885

<title>tty: n_tty: do not look ahead for EOL character past the end of the buffer</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ee421a75a740d6d8579fb1426141312313287de2</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 3593030761630e09200072a4bd06468892c27be3 upstream.

Daniel Gibson reports that the n_tty code gets line termination wrong in
very specific cases:

 "If you feed a line with exactly 64 chars + terminating newline, and
  directly afterwards (without reading) another line into a pseudo
  terminal, the the first read() on the other side will return the 64
  char line *without* terminating newline, and the next read() will
  return the missing terminating newline AND the complete next line (if
  it fits in the buffer)"

and bisected the behavior to commit 3b830a9c34d5 ("tty: convert
tty_ldisc_ops 'read()' function to take a kernel pointer").

Now, digging deeper, it turns out that the behavior isn't exactly new:
what changed in commit 3b830a9c34d5 was that the tty line discipline
.read() function is now passed an intermediate kernel buffer rather than
the final user space buffer.

And that intermediate kernel buffer is 64 bytes in size - thus that
special case with exactly 64 bytes plus terminating newline.

The same problem did exist before, but historically the boundary was not
the 64-byte chunk, but the user-supplied buffer size, which is obviously
generally bigger (and potentially bigger than N_TTY_BUF_SIZE, which
would hide the issue entirely).

The reason is that the n_tty canon_copy_from_read_buf() code would look
ahead for the EOL character one byte further than it would actually
copy.  It would then decide that it had found the terminator, and unmark
it as an EOL character - which in turn explains why the next read
wouldn't then be terminated by it.

Now, the reason it did all this in the first place is related to some
historical and pretty obscure EOF behavior, see commit ac8f3bf8832a
("n_tty: Fix poll() after buffer-limited eof push read") and commit
40d5e0905a03 ("n_tty: Fix EOF push handling").

And the reason for the EOL confusion is that we treat EOF as a special
EOL condition, with the EOL character being NUL (aka "__DISABLED_CHAR"
in the kernel sources).

So that EOF look-ahead also affects the normal EOL handling.

This patch just removes the look-ahead that causes problems, because EOL
is much more critical than the historical "EOF in the middle of a line
that coincides with the end of the buffer" handling ever was.

Now, it is possible that we should indeed re-introduce the "look at next
character to see if it's a EOF" behavior, but if so, that should be done
not at the kernel buffer chunk boundary in canon_copy_from_read_buf(),
but at a higher level, when we run out of the user buffer.

In particular, the place to do that would be at the top of
'n_tty_read()', where we check if it's a continuation of a previously
started read, and there is no more buffer space left, we could decide to
just eat the __DISABLED_CHAR at that point.

But that would be a separate patch, because I suspect nobody actually
cares, and I'd like to get a report about it before bothering.
