<content type='text'>
commit 0bfd464d3fdd5bb322f9cace4cc47f1796545cf7 upstream.

Allow a signal to interrupt the wait for a tty reopen; eg., if
the tty has starting final close and is waiting for the device to
drain.

The job_control() check in n_tty_read() has nearly identical purpose
and results as tty_check_change(). Both functions' purpose is to
determine if the current task's pgrp is the foreground pgrp for the tty,
and if not, to signal the current pgrp.

Introduce __tty_check_change() which takes the signal to send
and performs the shared operations for job control() and
tty_check_change().

<content type='text'>
With the removal of tty_wait_until_sent_from_close(), tty drivers
no longer wait during open for parallel closes to complete (instead,
the tty core waits before calling the driver open() method). Thus,
the close_wait waitqueue is no longer used for waiting.

Remove struct tty_port::close_wait.

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=79c1faa4511e78380cd643dac88a775062a08bc0'/>
<id>urn:sha1:79c1faa4511e78380cd643dac88a775062a08bc0</id>
<content type='text'>
tty_wait_until_sent_from_close() drops the tty lock while waiting
for the tty driver to finish sending previously accepted data (ie.,
data remaining in its write buffer and transmit fifo).

tty_wait_until_sent_from_close() was added by commit a57a7bf3fc7e
("TTY: define tty_wait_until_sent_from_close") to prevent the entire
tty subsystem from being unable to open new ttys while waiting for
one tty to close while output drained.

However, since commit 0911261d4cb6 ("tty: Don't take tty_mutex for tty
count changes"), holding a tty lock while closing does not prevent other
ttys from being opened/closed/hung up, but only prevents lifetime event
changes for the tty under lock.

Holding the tty lock while waiting for output to drain does prevent
parallel non-blocking opens (O_NONBLOCK) from advancing or returning
while the tty lock is held. However, all parallel opens _already_
block even if the tty lock is dropped while closing and the parallel
open advances. Blocking in open has been in mainline since at least 2.6.29
(see tty_port_block_til_ready(); note the test for O_NONBLOCK is _after_
the wait while ASYNC_CLOSING).

IOW, before this patch a non-blocking open will sleep anyway for the
_entire_ duration of a parallel hardware shutdown, and when it wakes, the
error return will cause a release of its tty, and it will restart with
a fresh attempt to open. Similarly with a blocking open that is already
waiting; when it's woken, the hardware shutdown has already completed
to ASYNC_INITIALIZED is not set, which forces a release and restart as
well.

So, holding the tty lock across the _entire_ close (which is what this
patch does), even while waiting for output to drain, is equivalent to
the current outcome wrt parallel opens.

Introduce tty_debug() macro to output uniform debug information for
tty core debug messages (function name and tty name).

Note: printk(KERN_DEBUG) is retained here over pr_debug() since
messages can be enabled in non-DEBUG builds.

<title>pty: Fix input race when closing</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1a48632ffed61352a7810ce089dc5a8bcd505a60</id>
<content type='text'>
A read() from a pty master may mistakenly indicate EOF (errno == -EIO)
after the pty slave has closed, even though input data remains to be read.
For example,

       pty slave       |        input worker        |    pty master
                       |                            |
                       |                            |   n_tty_read()
pty_write()            |                            |     input avail? no
  add data             |                            |     sleep
  schedule worker  ---&gt;|                            |     .
                       |---&gt; flush_to_ldisc()       |     .
pty_close()            |       fill read buffer     |     .
  wait for worker      |       wakeup reader    ---&gt;|     .
                       |       read buffer full?    |---&gt; input avail ? yes
                       |&lt;---   yes - exit worker    |     copy 4096 bytes to user
  TTY_OTHER_CLOSED &lt;---|                            |&lt;--- kick worker
                       |                            |

		                **** New read() before worker starts ****

                       |                            |   n_tty_read()
                       |                            |     input avail? no
                       |                            |     TTY_OTHER_CLOSED? yes
                       |                            |     return -EIO

Several conditions are required to trigger this race:
1. the ldisc read buffer must become full so the input worker exits
2. the read() count parameter must be &gt;= 4096 so the ldisc read buffer
   is empty
3. the subsequent read() occurs before the kicked worker has processed
   more input

However, the underlying cause of the race is that data is pipelined, while
tty state is not; ie., data already written by the pty slave end is not
yet visible to the pty master end, but state changes by the pty slave end
are visible to the pty master end immediately.

Pipeline the TTY_OTHER_CLOSED state through input worker to the reader.
1. Introduce TTY_OTHER_DONE which is set by the input worker when
   TTY_OTHER_CLOSED is set and either the input buffers are flushed or
   input processing has completed. Readers/polls are woken when
   TTY_OTHER_DONE is set.
2. Reader/poll checks TTY_OTHER_DONE instead of TTY_OTHER_CLOSED.
3. A new input worker is started from pty_close() after setting
   TTY_OTHER_CLOSED, which ensures the TTY_OTHER_DONE state will be
   set if the last input worker is already finished (or just about to
   exit).

Remove tty_flush_to_ldisc(); no in-tree callers.
