Hi Greg,
The first 3 patches are picked out from the closing series that was
split up; the first 2 patches lay the groundwork for the fixing
the locking for the ->set_termios() method.
The 2 UPF_*/ASYNC* patches are to bind the definitions together
since userspace only gets one set of definitions, but the code
operates as if the definitions are synch'd.
The remainder except the last patch are cleanups; the last patch
fixes port count mismatch in uart_open()/uart_close(), which
Geert and I discussed a while back. So one less thing on my todo
list.
Still on the todo list:
1. Some tty_port flags usage is non-atomic.
2. uart_remove_one_port will happily remove an in-use port since
there's no reference counting.
3. fixing autoRTS for omap (so it clears RTS when tiocmset drops
RTS)
Regards,
Peter Hurley (10):
serial: Refactor uart_flush_buffer() from uart_close()
serial: core: Flush ldisc after dropping port mutex in uart_close()

2.1.1
In the context of the final tty & port close, flushing the tx
ring buffer after the hardware has already been shutdown and
the ring buffer freed is neither required nor desirable.
uart_flush_buffer() performs 3 operations:
1. Resets tx ring buffer indices, but the tx ring buffer has
already been freed and the indices are reset if the port is
re-opened.
2. Calls uart driver's flush_buffer() method
5 in-tree uart drivers define flush_buffer() methods:
amba-pl011, atmel-serial, imx, serial-tegra, timbuart
These have been refactored into the shutdown() method, if
required.
3. Kicks the ldisc for more writing, but this is undesirable.
The file handle is being released; any waiting writer will
will be kicked out by tty_release() with a warning. Further,
the N_TTY ldisc may generate SIGIO for a file handle which
is no longer valid.

2.1.1
The low-level uart driver may modify termios settings to override
settings that are not compatible with the uart, such as CRTSCTS.
Thus, callers of the low-level uart driver's set_termios() method must
hold termios_rwsem write lock to prevent concurrent access to termios,
in case such override occurs.
The termios_rwsem lock requirement does not extend to console setup
(ie., uart_set_options), as console setup cannot race with tty
operations. Nor does this lock requirement extend to functions which
cannot be concurrent with tty ioctls (ie., uart_port_startup() and
uart_resume_port()).
Further, always claim the port mutex to protect hardware
re-reprogramming in the set_termios() uart driver method. Note this
is unnecessary for console initialization in uart_set_options()
which cannot be concurrent with other uart operations.

2.1.1
The userspace-defined ASYNC_* flags in include/uapi/linux/tty_flags.h
are the authoritative bit definitions for the serial_struct flags,
and thus for any derivative values or fields.
Although the serial core provides the TIOCSSERIAL and TIOCGSERIAL
ioctls to set and retrieve these flags from userspace, it defines these
bits independently, as UPF_* macros.
Define the UPF_* macros which are userspace-modifiable directly from
the ASYNC_* symbolic constants. Add compile-time test to ensure the
bits changeable by TIOCSSERIAL match the defined range in the uapi
header.
Add ASYNCB_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER to the uapi header since this bit is
programmable by userspace.

2.1.1
The tty buffers (and any line discipline buffers) must be flushed after
the UART hardware has shutdown; otherwise, a racing open on the same
tty may receive data from the previous session, which is a security
hazard. However, holding the port mutex while flushing the line
discipline buffers creates a lock inversion if the set_termios()
handler takes the port mutex (as it does in the followup patch,
'serial: Fix locking for uart driver set_termios method'.
Flush the ldisc buffers after dropping the port mutex; the tty lock
is still held which prevents a concurrent open() from advancing while
flushing. Since no new rx data is possible after uart_shutdown() until
a new open reinitializes the port, the later flush has no impact on
what data is being discarded.

2.1.1
A port count mismatch occurs if mutex_lock_interruptible()
exits uart_open() and the port has already been opened. This may
prematurely close a port on an open tty. Since uart_close() is _always_
called if uart_open() fails, the port count must be corrected if errors
occur.
Always increment the port count in uart_open(), regardless of errors;
always decrement the port count in uart_close(). Note that
tty_port_close_start() decrements the port count when uart_open()
was successful.

Hello,
would it make sense to mark them deprecated somehow? At build time, or
at least warn in the serial core that "current->comm is using a
deprecated flag"_ratelimited()?

A build warning when the macro is expanded would be best, but my
c-preprocessor-fu is terrible, so I have no idea how to make that work.

If we just print the message at TIOCSSERIAL if any of the deprecated
bits are set, that would be ok. Probably the only issue would be that
setserial could cause this message at will, so log flooding would be
a concern.

We can define a deprecated type like:
typedef __u32 __attribute__((deprecated)) depr_tty_t
and then do define:
#define ASYNCB_FLAG_1 (depr_tty_t)1
#define ASYNCB_FLAG_2 (depr_tty_t)2
Etc.
However, I do not know if it is desirable AND whether all compilers out
there used in userspace support that attribute.

That's why _ratelimited(). So something like the patch attached. But it
needs to be put to a separate function, out of the line.
/me currently builds a kernel to see who, if anybody, uses the flags on
a up-to-date system...

What ever happened with this test? Care to resend it as a "real" patch
so we can annoy userspace? :)
