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.

<title>serial: Fix locking for uart driver set_termios() method</title>

<id>7c8ab967e3cd1513cd79fd5edc404fb43c7f3a96</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

<title>tty/serial: Add GPIOLIB helpers for controlling modem lines</title>

<id>84130aace83989c1dba073ed98dad721d2060258</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch add some helpers to control modem lines (CTS/RTS/DSR...) via
GPIO.
This will be useful for many boards which have a serial controller that
only handle CTS/RTS pins (or even just RX/TX).

This patch add some helpers to control modem lines (CTS/RTS/DSR...) via
GPIO.
This will be useful for many boards which have a serial controller that
only handle CTS/RTS pins (or even just RX/TX).

These serial drivers were removed in kernel v3.1, so we can drop their
documentation files and references to their magic numbers and
parameters.

There are still references to these old drivers in
Documentation/devices.txt but I'm afraid they can't be removed.
