The smp_processor_id() shouldn't be called from preemptible code.
Instead use get_cpu() and put_cpu() which disables preemption in
addition to getting the processor id. Enable preemption back after
calling schedule_work() to make sure that the work gets scheduled on all
cores other than the current core. We want to avoid a scenario where
current core's stack trace is printed multiple times and one core's
stack trace isn't printed because of scheduling of current task.

Maximilian reported that surface_serial_hub serdev tx does not work during
system suspend. During system suspend, runtime PM gets disabled in
__device_suspend_late(), and tx is unable to wake-up the serial core port
device that we use to check if tx is safe to start. Johan summarized the
regression noting that serdev tx no longer always works as earlier when the
serdev device is runtime PM active.
The serdev device and the serial core controller devices are siblings of
the serial port hardware device. The runtime PM usage count from serdev
device does not propagate to the serial core device siblings, it only
propagates to the parent.
In addition to the tx issue for suspend, testing for the serial core port
device can cause an unnecessary delay in enabling tx while waiting for the
serial core port device to wake-up. The serial core port device wake-up is
only needed to flush pending tx when the serial port hardware device was
in runtime PM suspended state.
To fix the regression, we need to check the runtime PM state of the parent
serial port hardware device for tx instead of the serial core port device.
As the serial port device drivers may or may not implement runtime PM, we
need to also add a check for pm_runtime_enabled().

TIOCLINUX can be used for privilege escalation on virtual terminals when
code is executed via tools like su/sudo and sandboxing tools.
By abusing the selection features, a lower-privileged application can
write content to the console, select and copy/paste that content and
thereby executing code on the privileged account. See also the poc
here:
https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2023/03/14/3
Selection is usually used by tools like gpm that provide mouse features
on the virtual console. gpm already runs as root (due to earlier
changes that restrict access to a user on the current TTY), therefore
it will still work with this change.
With this change, the following TIOCLINUX subcommands require
CAP_SYS_ADMIN:
* TIOCL_SETSEL - setting the selected region on the terminal
* TIOCL_PASTESEL - pasting the contents of the selected region into
the input buffer
* TIOCL_SELLOADLUT - changing word-by-word selection behaviour
The security problem mitigated is similar to the security risks caused
by TIOCSTI, which, since kernel 6.2, can be disabled with
CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI=n.

Let's drop the use of pm_runtime_irq_safe() for 8250_omap. The use of
pm_runtime_irq_safe() is not nice as it takes a permanent usage count on
the parent device.
We can finally drop pm_runtime_irq_safe() safely as the kernel now knows
when the uart port tx is active. This changed with commit 84a9582fd2
("serial: core: Start managing serial controllers to enable runtime PM").
For serial port rx, we already use Linux generic wakeirqs for 8250_omap.
To drop pm_runtime_irq_safe(), we need to add handling for shallow idle
state where the port hardware may already be awake and an IO interrupt
happens. We also need to replace the serial8250_rpm sync calls in the
interrupt handlers with async runtime PM calls.
Note that omap8250_irq() calls omap_8250_dma_handle_irq(), so we don't
need separate runtime PM calls in omap_8250_dma_handle_irq().
While at it, let's also add the missing line break to the end of
omap8250_runtime_resume() to group the calls.

Let's fix the issue by checking for console_suspend_enabled in the system
suspend and resume path.
Note that with this fix the checks for console_suspend_enabled in
omap8250_runtime_suspend() become useless. We now keep runtime PM usage
count for an attached kernel console starting with commit bedb404e91

Commit 44b27aec9d ("serial: core, 8250: set RS485 termination GPIO in
serial core") enabled support for RS485 termination GPIOs behind i2c
expanders by setting the GPIO outside of the critical section protected
by the port spinlock. Access to the i2c expander may sleep, which
caused a splat with the port spinlock held.
Commit 7c7f9bc986 ("serial: Deassert Transmit Enable on probe in
driver-specific way") erroneously regressed that by spinlocking the
GPIO manipulation again.
Fix by moving uart_rs485_config() (the function manipulating the GPIO)
outside of the spinlocked section and acquiring the spinlock inside of
uart_rs485_config() for the invocation of ->rs485_config() only.
This gets us one step closer to pushing the spinlock down into the
->rs485_config() callbacks which actually need it. (Some callbacks
do not want to be spinlocked because they perform sleepable register
accesses, see e.g. sc16is7xx_config_rs485().)

Lockdep complains about possible circular locking dependencies when the
i.MX SDMA driver issues console messages under its spinlock. While the
SDMA driver calls back into the UART when issuing a message, the i.MX
UART driver will never call back into the SDMA driver for this UART,
because DMA is explicitly not used for UARTs providing the console.
To avoid the lockdep warnings put the UART port lock for console devices
into a separate subclass.
This fixes possible deadlock warnings like the following which was
provoked by adding a printk to the i.MX SDMA driver at a place where the
driver holds its spinlock.

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first and returns the size of
the source string, not the destination string, which can be accidentally
misused [1].
The copy_to_user() call uses @len returned from strlcpy() directly
without checking its value. This could potentially lead to read
overflow. There is no existing bug since @len is always guaranteed to be
greater than hardcoded strings in @func_table[kb_func]. But as written
it is very fragile and specifically uses a strlcpy() result without sanity
checking and using it to copy to userspace.
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS
(for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).
As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct mxser_board.

If the driver sets TTY_DRIVER_HARDWARE_BREAK, we leave ops->break_ctl()
to the driver and return from send_break(). But we do it using a local
variable and keep the code flowing through the end of the function.
Instead, do 'return' immediately with the ops->break_ctl()'s return
value.
This way, we don't have to stuff the 'else' branch of the 'if' with the
software break handling. And we can re-indent the function too.

The ioctl helpers are well documented, except they are not plugged in
the Documentation. So fix up the minor issues in the kernel-doc and plug
it in.
The minor issues include:
* bad \t on every line (sphinx misinterprets the description otherwise)
* missing colon after Return
* superfluous \n after the comment
* make some struct members and constants a hyperlink
* and so on
Perhaps better to use --word-diff if one wants to see the "real"
changes.

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.

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.

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.

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.
