USB: usb_serial: clean tty reference in the last close
When a usb serial adapter is used as console, the usb serial console driver bumps the open_count on the port struct used but doesn't attach a real tty to it (only a fake one temporaly). If this port is opened later using the regular character device interface, the open method won't initialize the port, which is the expected, and will receive a brand new tty struct created by tty layer, which will be stored in port->tty. When the last close is issued, open_count won't be 0 because of the console usage and the port->tty will still contain the old tty value. This is the last ttyUSB<n> close so the allocated tty will be freed by the tty layer. The usb_serial and usb_serial_port are still in use by the console, so port_free() won't be called (serial_close() -> usb_serial_put() -> destroy_serial() -> port_free()), so the scheduled work (port->work, usb_serial_port_work()) will still run. And usb_serial_port_work() does: (...) tty = port->tty; if (!tty) return; tty_wakeup(tty); which causes (manually copied): Faulting instruction address: 0x6b6b6b68 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] PREEMPT PowerMac Modules linked in: binfmt_misc ipv6 nfs lockd nfs_acl sunrpc dm_snapshot dm_mirror dm_mod hfsplus uinput ams input_polldev genrtc cpufreq_powersave i2c_powermac therm_adt746x snd_aoa_codec_tas snd_aoa_fabric_layout snd_aoa joydev snd_aoa_i2sbus snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss snd_pcm snd_timer snd_page_alloc pmac_zilog serial_core evdev ide_cd cdrom snd appletouch soundcore snd_aoa_soundbus bcm43xx firmware_class usbhid ieee80211softmac ff_memless firewire_ohci firewire_core ieee80211 ieee80211_crypt crc_itu_t sungem sungem_phy uninorth_agp agpart ssb NIP: 6b6b6b68 LR: c01b2108 CTR: 6b6b6b6b REGS: c106de80 TRAP: 0400 Not tainted (2.6.24-rc2) MSR: 40009032 <EE,ME,IR,DR> CR: 82004024 XER: 00000000 TASK = c106b4c0[5] 'events/0' THREAD: c106c000 GPR00: 6b6b6b6b c106df30 c106b4c0 c2d613a0 00009032 00000001 00001a00 00000001 GPR08: 00000008 00000000 00000000 c106c000 42004028 00000000 016ffbe0 0171a724 GPR16: 016ffcf4 00240e24 00240e70 016fee68 016ff9a4 c03046c4 c0327f50 c03046fc GPR24: c106b6b9 c106b4c0 c101d610 c106c000 c02160fc c1eac1dc c2d613ac c2d613a0 NIP [6b6b6b68] 0x6b6b6b68 LR [c01b2108] tty_wakeup+0x6c/0x9c Call Trace: [c106df30] [c01b20e8] tty_wakeup+0x4c/0x9c (unreliable) [c106df40] [c0216138] usb_serial_port_work+0x3c/0x78 [c106df50] [c00432e8] run_workqueue+0xc4/0x15c [c106df90] [c0043798] worker_thread+0xa0/0x124 [c106dfd0] [c0048224] kthread+0x48/0x84 [c106dff0] [c00129bc] kernel_thread+0x44/0x60 Instruction dump: XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX Slab corruption: size-2048 start=c2d613a0, len=2048 Redzone: 0x9f911029d74e35b/0x9f911029d74e35b.
