Fix OpenSSH pty regression on close
commit 0f40fbbc upstream. OpenSSH expects the (non-blocking) read() of pty master to return EAGAIN only if it has received all of the slave-side output after it has received SIGCHLD. This used to work on pre-3.12 kernels. This fix effectively forces non-blocking read() and poll() to block for parallel i/o to complete for all ttys. It also unwinds these changes: 1) f8747d4a tty: Fix pty master read() after slave closes 2) 52bce7f8 pty, n_tty: Simplify input processing on final close 3) 1a48632f pty: Fix input race when closing Inspired by analysis and patch from Marc Aurele La France <tsi@tuyoix.net> Reported-by: Volth <openssh@volth.com> Reported-by: Marc Aurele La France <tsi@tuyoix.net> BugLink: https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52 BugLink: https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2492Signed-off-by: Brian Bloniarz <brian.bloniarz@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> [bwh: Backported to 3.16: - No need to unwind commits 2 and 3 - Keep using tty_flush_to_ldisc() rather than adding tty_buffer_flush_work()]] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
