All non-UAPI asm/termios.h consist of include of UAPI counterpart
and, possibly, include of linux/uaccess.h
The latter can't be simply removed, even though nothing in
linux/termios.h doesn't depend upon it anymore - there are several
places that rely upon that indirect chain of includes to pull
linux/uaccess.h. So the include needs to be lifted out of there -
we lift into tty_driver.h, serdev.h and places that pull asm/termios.h,
but none of
* linux/uaccess.h (obvious)
* net/sock.h (pulls uaccess.h)
* linux/{tty,tty_driver,serdev}.h (tty.h pulls tty_driver.h)
That leaves us just with the include of UAPI asm/termios.h, which is
what <asm/termios.h> will resolve to if we simply remove non-UAPI header.

Group the flow flags under a single struct called flow. The new struct
contains 'stopped' and 'tco_stopped' bools which used to be bits in a
bitfield. The struct also contains the lock protecting them to
potentially share the same cache line.
Note that commit c545b66c69 (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty
flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was
for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores
on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C
code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding
(tty_struct::unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies some
bytes from the next word.
So make it reliable by:
1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and
2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct --
pads the end.
This is also the perfect time to start the documentation of tty_struct
where all this lives. So we start by documenting what these bools
actually serve for. And why we do all the alignment dances. Only the few
up-to-date information from the Theodore's comment made it into this new
Kerneldoc comment.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

This patch adds "tty-index" field to /proc/PID/fdinfo/N if N
specifies /dev/ptmx. The field shows the index of associative
slave pts.
Though a minor number is given for each pts instance, ptmx is not.
It means there is no way in user-space to know the association between
file descriptors for pts/n and ptmx. (n = 0, 1, ...)
This is different from pipe. About pipe such association can be solved
by inode of pipefs.
Providing the way to know the association between pts/n and ptmx helps

This marks many critical kernel structures for randomization. These are
structures that have been targeted in the past in security exploits, or
contain functions pointers, pointers to function pointer tables, lists,
workqueues, ref-counters, credentials, permissions, or are otherwise
sensitive. This initial list was extracted from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's
code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding
of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and
don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
Left out of this list is task_struct, which requires special handling

This is more prep-work for the upcoming pty changes. Still just code
cleanup with no actual semantic changes.
This removes a bunch pointless complexity by just having the slave pty
side remember the dentry associated with the devpts slave rather than
the inode. That allows us to remove all the "look up the dentry" code
for when we want to remove it again.
Together with moving the tty pointer from "inode->i_private" to
"dentry->d_fsdata" and getting rid of pointless inode locking, this
removes about 30 lines of code. Not only is the end result smaller,
it's simpler and easier to understand.
The old code, for example, depended on the d_find_alias() to not just
find the dentry, but also to check that it is still hashed, which in
turn validated the tty pointer in the inode.
That is a _very_ roundabout way to say "invalidate the cached tty
pointer when the dentry is removed".
The new code just does
dentry->d_fsdata = NULL;
in devpts_pty_kill() instead, invalidating the tty pointer rather more
directly and obviously. Don't do something complex and subtle when the
obvious straightforward approach will do.
The rest of the patch (ie apart from code deletion and the above tty
pointer clearing) is just switching the calling convention to pass the
dentry or file pointer around instead of the inode.

Without serialization, the flow control state can become inverted
wrt. the actual hardware state. For example,
CPU 0 | CPU 1
stop_tty() |
lock ctrl_lock |
tty->stopped = 1 |
unlock ctrl_lock |
| start_tty()
| lock ctrl_lock
| tty->stopped = 0
| unlock ctrl_lock
| driver->start()
driver->stop() |
In this case, the flow control state now indicates the tty has
been started, but the actual hardware state has actually been stopped.
Introduce tty->flow_lock spinlock to serialize tty flow control changes.
Split out unlocked __start_tty()/__stop_tty() flavors for use by
ioctl(TCXONC) in follow-on patch.

We need the /dev/ node not to be available before we call
tty_register_device. Otherwise we might race with open and
tty_struct->port might not be available at that time.
This is not an issue now, but would be a problem after "TTY: use
tty_port_register_device" is applied.

This allows drivers like ttyprintk to avoid hacks to create an
unnumbered node in /dev. It used to set TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV in
flags and call device_create on its own. That is incorrect, because
TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV may be set only if tty_register_device is
called explicitly.

Switch to the new driver allocation interface, as this is one of the
special call-sites. Here, we need TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_ALLOC to not
allocate tty_driver->ports, cdevs and potentially other structures
because we reserve too many lines in pty. Instead, it provides the
tty_port<->tty_struct link in tty->ops->install already.

We need to allow drivers that use neither tty_port_install nor
tty_port_register_device to link a tty_port to a tty somehow. To
avoid a race with open, this has to be performed before
tty_register_device. But currently tty_driver->ports is allocated even
in tty_register_device because we do not know whether this is the PTY
driver. The PTY driver is special here due to an excessive count of
lines it declares to handle. We cannot handle tty_ports there this
way.
To circumvent this, we start passing tty_driver flags to
alloc_tty_driver already and we create tty_alloc_driver for this
purpose. There we can allocate tty_driver->ports and do all the magic
between tty_alloc_driver and tty_register_device. Later we will
introduce tty_port_link_device function for that purpose.
All drivers should eventually switch to this new tty driver allocation
interface.

Now that we don't have tty->termios tied to drivers->tty we can untangle
the logic here. In addition we can push the removal logic out of the
destructor path.
At that point we can think about sorting out tty_port and console and all
the other ugly hangovers.

It will hold tty_port structures for all drivers which do not want to

We ignore PTY here because it wants 1 million lines and it installs
tty_port in ->install anyway.

Note that tty->ops->shutdown is called from whatever context the user
drops the last tty reference from. E.g. if one takes a reference in
an ISR, tty close happens on other CPU and the final tty put is from
the ISR, tty->ops->shutdown will be called from that hard irq context.
We would have a problem in vt if we start using tty refcounting from
other contexts than user there. It is because vt's shutdown uses
mutexes. This is yet to be fixed.

Like the rest of the kernel, make a stub from alloc_tty_driver which
calls __alloc_tty_driver with proper owner. This will save us one more
assignment on the driver side.
Also this fixes some drivers which didn't set the owner. This allowed
user to remove the module from the system even though a tty from the
driver is still open.

tty_operations->remove is normally called like:
queue_release_one_tty
->tty_shutdown
->tty_driver_remove_tty
->tty_operations->remove
However tty_shutdown() is called from queue_release_one_tty() only if
tty_operations->shutdown is NULL. But for pty, it is not.
pty_unix98_shutdown() is used there as ->shutdown.
So tty_operations->remove of pty (i.e. pty_unix98_remove()) is never
called. This results in invalid pty_count. I.e. what can be seen in
/proc/sys/kernel/pty/nr.
I see this was already reported at:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/5/370
But it was not fixed since then.
This patch is kind of a hackish way. The problem lies in ->install. We
allocate there another tty (so-called tty->link). So ->install is
called once, but ->remove twice, for both tty and tty->link. The fix
here is to count both tty and tty->link and divide the count by 2 for
user.
And to have ->remove called, let's make tty_driver_remove_tty() global
and call that from pty_unix98_shutdown() (tty_operations->shutdown).
While at it, let's document that when ->shutdown is defined,
tty_shutdown() is not called.

We don't actually need this and it causes problems for internal use of
this functionality. Currently there is a single use of the FILE * pointer.
That is the serial core which uses it to check tty_hung_up_p. However if
that is true then IO_ERROR is also already set so the check may be removed.

get it wrong (and every new driver) do the job in one place.
