The job_control() check in n_tty_read() has nearly identical purpose
and results as tty_check_change(). Both functions' purpose is to
determine if the current task's pgrp is the foreground pgrp for the tty,
and if not, to signal the current pgrp.
Introduce __tty_check_change() which takes the signal to send
and performs the shared operations for job control() and

Commit a3a10ce342 ("Avoid usb reset crashes by making tty_io cdevs truly
dynamic") which mixes using cdev_alloc() and cdev_init() is problematic.
Subsequent call to cdev_init() after cdev_alloc() sets kobj release method
from cdev_dynamic_release() to cdev_default_release() and thus makes it
impossible to free allocated cdev.
This patch also consolidates error path of cdev_add() as cdev can also leak

tty_ldisc_flush() first clears the line discipline input buffer,
then clears the tty flip buffers. However, this allows for existing
data in the tty flip buffers to be added after the ldisc input
buffer has been cleared, but before the flip buffers have been cleared.
Add an optional ldisc parameter to tty_buffer_flush() to allow
tty_ldisc_flush() to pass the ldisc to clear.
NB: Initially, the plan was to do this automatically in
tty_buffer_flush(). However, an audit of the behavior of existing
line disciplines showed that performing a ldisc buffer flush on
ioctl(TCFLSH) was not always the outcome. For example, some line
disciplines have flush_buffer() methods but not ioctl() methods,
so a ->flush_buffer() command would be unexpected.

When releasing the master pty, the slave pty also needs to be locked
to prevent concurrent tty count changes for the slave pty and to
ensure that only one parallel master and slave release observe the
final close, and proceed to destruct the pty pair. Conversely, when
releasing the slave pty, locking the master pty is not necessary

Releasing the tty locks while waiting for the tty wait queues to

otherwise new ttys could not have been opened while waiting.
However, without needing the global tty_mutex held, the tty locks for

Holding tty_mutex for a tty re-open is no longer necessary since

slave tty count is no longer accessed by tty_reopen(), holding
tty_mutex to prevent concurrent final tty_release() of the slave
pty is not required.
As with "tty: Re-open /dev/tty without tty_mutex", holding a
tty kref until the tty_lock is acquired is sufficient to ensure
the tty has not been freed, which, in turn, is sufficient to
ensure the tty_lock can be safely acquired and the tty count
can be safely retrieved. A non-zero tty count with the tty lock
held guarantees that release_tty() has not run and cannot
run concurrently with tty_reopen().
Change tty_driver_lookup_tty() to acquire the tty kref, which
allows the tty_mutex to be dropped before acquiring the tty lock.
Dropping the tty_mutex before attempting the tty_lock allows
other ttys to be opened and released, without needing this

Opening /dev/tty (ie., the controlling tty for the current task)
is always a re-open of the underlying tty. Because holding the
tty_lock is sufficient for safely re-opening a tty, and because
having a tty kref is sufficient for safely acquiring the tty_lock [1],
tty_open_current_tty() does not require holding tty_mutex.
Repurpose tty_open_current_tty() to perform the re-open itself and
refactor tty_open().
[1] Analysis of safely re-opening the current tty w/o tty_mutex
get_current_tty() gets a tty kref from the already kref'ed tty value of
current->signal->tty while holding the sighand lock for the current
task. This guarantees that the tty pointer returned from
get_current_tty() points to a tty which remains referenceable
while holding the kref.
Although release_tty() may run concurrently, and thus the driver
reference may be removed, release_one_tty() cannot have run, and
won't while holding the tty kref.
This, in turn, guarantees the tty_lock() can safely be acquired
(since tty->magic and tty->legacy_mutex are still a valid dereferences).
The tty_lock() also gets a tty kref to prevent the tty_unlock() from
dereferencing a released tty. Thus, the kref returned from
get_current_tty() can be released.
Lastly, the first operation of tty_reopen() is to check the tty count.
If non-zero, this ensures release_tty() is not running concurrently,
and the driver references have not been removed.

Although perhaps not obvious, the TTY_CLOSING bit is set when the
tty count has been decremented to 0 (which occurs while holding
tty_lock). The only other case when tty count is 0 during a re-open

after the pty slave, which is unsupported and returns an error.

Re-opening master ptys is not allowed. Once opened and for the remaining
lifetime of the master pty, its tty count is 1. If its tty count has
dropped to 0, then the master pty was closed and TTY_CLOSING was set,
and destruction may begin imminently.
Besides the normal case of a legacy BSD pty master being re-opened
(which always returns -EIO), this code is only reachable in 2 degenerate
cases:
1. The pty master is the controlling terminal (this is possible through
the TIOCSCTTY ioctl). pty masters are not designed to be controlling
terminals and it's an oversight that tiocsctty() ever let that happen.
The attempted open of /dev/tty will always fail. No known program does
this.
2. The legacy BSD pty slave was opened first. The slave open will fail
in pty_open() and tty_release() will commence. But before tty_release()
claims the tty_mutex, there is a very small window where a parallel
master open might succeed. In a test of racing legacy BSD slave and
master parallel opens, where:
slave open attempts: 10000 success:4527 failure:5473
master open attempts: 11728 success:5789 failure:5939
only 8 master open attempts would have succeeded reaching this code and
successfully opened the master pty. This case is not possible with
SysV ptys.
Always return -EIO if a master pty is re-opened or the slave is opened
first and the master opened in parallel (for legacy BSD ptys).
Furthermore, now that changing the slave's count is not required,
the tty_lock is sufficient for preventing concurrent changes to the
tty being re-opened (or failing re-opening).

Setting the controlling terminal for a session occurs with either
the first open of a non-pty master tty or with ioctl(TIOCSCTTY).
Since only the session leader can set the controlling terminal for
a session (and the session leader cannot change), it is not
necessary to prevent a process from attempting to set different
ttys as the controlling terminal concurrently.
So it's only necessary to prevent the same tty from becoming the
controlling terminal for different session leaders. The tty_lock()
is sufficient to prevent concurrent proc_set_tty() for the same
tty.
Remove the tty_mutex lock region; add tty_lock() to tiocsctty().
While this may appear to allow a race condition between opening
the controlling tty via tty_open_current_tty() and stealing the
controlling tty via ioctl(TIOCSCTTY, 1), that race condition already
existed. Even if the tty_mutex prevented stealing the controlling tty
while tty_open_current_tty() returned the original controlling tty,
it cannot prevent stealing the controlling tty before tty_open() returns.
Thus, tty_open() could already return a no-longer-controlling tty when
opening /dev/tty.
