The first-use tty audit buffer allocation is a potential race amongst multiple attempts at 'first-use'; only one 'winner' is acceptable. The successful buffer assignment occurs if tty_audit_buf == NULL (which will also be the return from cmpxchg()); otherwise, another racer 'won' and this buffer allocation is freed.

When tty_audit_exit() is called from do_exit(), the process is single-threaded. Since the tty_audit_buf is only shared by threads of a process, no other thread can be concurrently accessing the tty_audit_buf during or after tty_audit_exit(). Thus, no other thread can be holding an extra tty_audit_buf reference which would prevent tty_audit_exit() from freeing the tty_audit_buf. As that is the only purpose of the ref counting, remove the reference counting and free the tty_audit_buf directly.

The tty audit buffer is allocated at first use and not freed until the process exits. If tty audit is turned off after the audit buffer has been allocated, no effort is made to release the buffer. So re-checking if tty audit has just been turned off when tty audit was just on is false optimization; the likelihood of triggering this condition is exceedingly small.

The audit_tty and audit_tty_log_passwd fields are actually bool values, so merge into single memory location to access atomically.

In canonical read mode, each line read and logged is pushed separately with tty_audit_push(). For all single-threaded processes and multi-threaded processes reading from only one tty, this patch has no effect; the last line read will still be the entry pushed to the audit log because the tty association cannot have changed between tty_audit_add_data() and tty_audit_push(). For multi-threaded processes reading from different ttys concurrently, the audit log will have mixed log entries anyway. Consider two ttys audited concurrently: CPU0 CPU1 ---------- ------------ tty_audit_add_data(ttyA) tty_audit_add_data(ttyB) tty_audit_push() tty_audit_add_data(ttyB) tty_audit_push() This patch will now cause the ttyB output to be split into separate audit log entries. However, this possibility is equally likely without this patch: CPU0 CPU1 ---------- ------------ tty_audit_add_data(ttyB) tty_audit_add_data(ttyA) tty_audit_push() tty_audit_add_data(ttyB) tty_audit_push() Mixed canonical and non-canonical reads have similar races.

The tty audit buffer used to audit/record tty input is allocated on the process's first call to tty_audit_add_data(), and not freed until the process exits. On each call to tty_audit_add_data(), the current tty is compared (by major:minor) with the last tty associated with the audit buffer, and if the tty has changed the existing data is logged to the audit log. The audit buffer is then re-associated with the new tty. Currently, the audit buffer is immediately associated with the tty; however, the association must be re-checked when the buffer is locked prior to copying the tty input. This extra step is always necessary, since a concurrent read of a different tty by another thread of the process may have used the buffer in between allocation and buffer lock. Rather than associate the audit buffer with the tty at allocation, leave the buffer initially un-associated (null dev_t); simply let the re-association check also perform the initial association.

The tty termios bits cannot change while n_tty_read() is in the i/o loop; the termios_rwsem ensures mutual exclusion with termios changes in n_tty_set_termios(). Check L_ICANON() directly and eliminate icanon parameter. NB: tty_audit_add_data() => tty_audit_buf_get() => tty_audit_buf_alloc() is a single path; ie., tty_audit_buf_get() and tty_audit_buf_alloc() have no other callers.

tty audit never logs pty master reads, but packet mode only works for pty masters, so tty_audit_add_data() was never logging packet mode anyway. Don't audit packet mode data.

Currently, when the tty is hungup, the ldisc is re-instanced; ie., the current instance is destroyed and a new instance is created. The purpose of this design was to guarantee a valid, open ldisc for the lifetime of the tty. However, now that tty buffers are owned by and have lifetime equivalent to the tty_port (since v3.10), any data received immediately after the ldisc is re-instanced may cause continued driver i/o operations concurrently with the driver's hangup() operation. For drivers that shutdown h/w on hangup, this is unexpected and usually bad. For example, the serial core may free the xmit buffer page concurrently with an in-progress write() operation (triggered by echo). With the existing stable and robust ldisc reference handling, the cleaned-up tty_reopen(), the straggling unsafe ldisc use cleaned up, and the preparation to properly handle a NULL tty->ldisc, the ldisc instance can be destroyed and only re-instanced when the tty is re-opened. If the tty was opened as /dev/console or /dev/tty0, the original behavior of re-instancing the ldisc is retained (the 'reinit' parameter to tty_ldisc_hangup() is true). This is required since those file descriptors are never hungup. This patch has neglible impact on userspace; the tty file_operations ptr is changed to point to the hungup file operations _before_ the ldisc instance is destroyed, so only racing file operations might now retrieve a NULL ldisc reference (which is simply handled as if the hungup file operation had been called instead -- see "tty: Prepare for destroying line discipline on hangup"). This resolves a long-standing FIXME and several crash reports. Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

At tty hangup, the line discipline instance is reinitialized by closing the current ldisc instance and opening a new instance. This operation is complicated by error recovery: if the attempt to reinit the current line discipline fails, the line discipline is reset to N_TTY (which should not but can fail). Re-purpose tty_ldisc_reinit() to return a valid, open line discipline instance, or otherwise, an error.

tty->ldisc is a ptr to struct tty_ldisc, but unfortunately 'ldisc' is also used as a parameter or local name to refer to the line discipline index value (ie, N_TTY, N_GSM, etc.); instead prefer the name used by the line discipline registration/ref counting functions.

tty file_operations (read/write/ioctl) wait for the ldisc reference indefinitely (until ldisc lifetime events, such as hangup or TIOCSETD, finish). Since hangup now destroys the ldisc and does not instance another copy, file_operations must now be prepared to receive a NULL ldisc reference from tty_ldisc_ref_wait(): CPU 0 CPU 1 ----- ----- (*f_op->read)() => tty_read() __tty_hangup() ... f_op = &hung_up_tty_fops; ... tty_ldisc_hangup() tty_ldisc_lock() tty_ldisc_kill() tty->ldisc = NULL tty_ldisc_unlock() ld = tty_ldisc_ref_wait() /* ld == NULL */ Instead, the action taken now is to return the same value as if the tty had been hungup a moment earlier: CPU 0 CPU 1 ----- ----- __tty_hangup() ... f_op = &hung_up_tty_fops; (*f_op->read)() => hung_up_tty_read() return 0; ... tty_ldisc_hangup() tty_ldisc_lock() tty_ldisc_kill() tty->ldisc = NULL tty_ldisc_unlock() Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

After the ldisc is released, but before the tty is destroyed, the termios is saved (in tty_free_termios()); this termios is restored if a new tty is created on next open(). However, the line discipline is always reset, which is not obvious in the current method. Instead, reset as part of the restore. Restore the original line discipline, which may not have been N_TTY.

The chars_in_buffer() line discipline method serves no functional purpose, other than as a (dubious) debugging aid for mostly bit-rotting drivers. Despite being documented as an optional method, every caller is unconditionally executed (although conditionally compiled). Furthermore, direct tty->ldisc access without an ldisc ref is unsafe. Lastly, N_TTY's chars_in_buffer() has warned of removal since 3.12. Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

The tty core invokes the optional driver shutdown() just before the optional driver remove() (shutdown() has access to the termios and remove() does not).
