<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 5c7e105cd156fc9adf5294a83623d7a40c15f9b9.

As identified by KASAN, the simplification done by the cleanup patch
was not legal.

&gt;From tracing through the code, it can be seen that we're transmitting
from a 4096-byte circular buffer. We copy anywhere from 1-4 bytes from
it each time. The simplification runs into trouble when we get near
the end of the circular buffer. For instance, we might start out with
xmit-&gt;tail = 4094 and we want to transfer 4 bytes. With the code
before simplification this was no problem. We'd read buf[4094],
buf[4095], buf[0], and buf[1]. With the new code we'll do a
memcpy(&amp;buf[4094], 4) which reads 2 bytes past the end of the buffer
and then skips transmitting what's at buf[0] and buf[1].

KASAN isn't 100% consistent at reporting this for me, but to be extra
confident in the analysis, I added traces of the tail and tx_bytes and
then wrote a test program:

  while true; do
    echo -n "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0" &gt; /dev/ttyMSM0
    sleep .1
  done

I watched the traces over SSH and saw:
  qcom_geni_serial_send_chunk_fifo: 4093 4
  qcom_geni_serial_send_chunk_fifo: 1 3

Which indicated that one byte should be missing. Sure enough the
output that should have been:

  abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0

In one case was actually missing a byte:

  abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwyz0

Running "ls -al" on large directories also made the missing bytes
obvious since columns didn't line up.

While the original code may not be the most elegant, we only talking
about copying up to 4 bytes here. Let's just go back to the code that
worked.

<title>serial: qcom-geni: Don't cancel/abort if we can't get the port lock</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9e957a155005b16af057e86c6bcc1197cd70a6af</id>
<content type='text'>
As of commit d7402513c935 ("arm64: smp: IPI_CPU_STOP and
IPI_CPU_CRASH_STOP should try for NMI"), if we've got pseudo-NMI
enabled then we'll use it to stop CPUs at panic time. This is nice,
but it does mean that there's a pretty good chance that we'll end up
stopping a CPU while it holds the port lock for the console
UART. Specifically, I see a CPU get stopped while holding the port
lock nearly 100% of the time on my sc7180-trogdor based Chromebook by
enabling the "buddy" hardlockup detector and then doing:

  sysctl -w kernel.hardlockup_all_cpu_backtrace=1
  sysctl -w kernel.hardlockup_panic=1
  echo HARDLOCKUP &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT

UART drivers are _supposed_ to handle this case OK and this is why
UART drivers check "oops_in_progress" and only do a "trylock" in that
case. However, before we enabled pseudo-NMI to stop CPUs it wasn't a
very well-tested situation.

Now that we're testing the situation a lot, it can be seen that the
Qualcomm GENI UART driver is pretty broken. Specifically, when I run
my test case and look at the console output I just see a bunch of
garbled output like:

  [  201.069084] NMI backtrace[  201.069084] NM[  201.069087] CPU: 6
  PID: 10296 Comm: dnsproxyd Not tainted 6.7.0-06265-gb13e8c0ede12
  #1 01112b9f14923cbd0b[  201.069090] Hardware name: Google Lazor
  ([  201.069092] pstate: 80400009 (Nzcv daif +PAN -UAO -TCO -DI[
  201.069095] pc : smp_call_function_man[  201.069099]

That's obviously not so great. This happens because each call to the
console driver exits after the data has been written to the FIFO but
before it's actually been flushed out of the serial port. When we have
multiple calls into the console one after the other then (if we can't
get the lock) each call tells the UART to throw away any data in the
FIFO that hadn't been transferred yet.

I've posted up a patch to change the arm64 core to avoid this
situation most of the time [1] much like x86 seems to do, but even if
that patch lands the GENI driver should still be fixed.

&gt;From testing, it appears that we can just delete the cancel/abort in
the case where we weren't able to get the UART lock and the output
looks good. It makes sense that we'd be able to do this since that
means we'll just call into __qcom_geni_serial_console_write() and
__qcom_geni_serial_console_write() looks much like
qcom_geni_serial_poll_put_char() but with a loop. However, it seems
safest to poll the FIFO and make sure it's empty before our
transfer. This should reliably make sure that we're not
interrupting/clobbering any existing transfers.

As part of this change, we'll also avoid re-setting up a TX at the end
of the console write function if we weren't able to get the lock,
since accessing "port-&gt;tx_remaining" without the lock is not
safe. This is only needed to re-start userspace initiated transfers.

<title>serial: qcom_geni: Convert to platform remove callback returning void</title>

<content type='text'>
The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks.

To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return
void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to
.remove_new(), which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

<id>urn:sha1:b8ba915d960d03bd7e24eab80f0820bdd19203ec</id>
<content type='text'>
When a serial port is used for kernel console output, then all
modifications to the UART registers which are done from other contexts,
e.g. getty, termios, are interference points for the kernel console.

So far this has been ignored and the printk output is based on the
principle of hope. The rework of the console infrastructure which aims to
support threaded and atomic consoles, requires to mark sections which
modify the UART registers as unsafe. This allows the atomic write function
to make informed decisions and eventually to restore operational state. It
also allows to prevent the regular UART code from modifying UART registers
while printk output is in progress.

All modifications of UART registers are guarded by the UART port lock,
which provides an obvious synchronization point with the console
infrastructure.

To avoid adding this functionality to all UART drivers, wrap the
spin_[un]lock*() invocations for uart_port::lock into helper functions
which just contain the spin_[un]lock*() invocations for now. In a
subsequent step these helpers will gain the console synchronization
mechanisms.

Converted with coccinelle. No functional change.

TX is handled by primary sequencer. After cancelling primary command, poll
primary sequencer's irq status instead of that of secondary.
While at it, also remove a couple of redundant lines that read from IRQ_EN
register and write back same.

The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate
of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus.
As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they
"temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h
and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include
files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and
replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to
explicitly include the correct includes.
