Amit Shah fa8b66ccd2 virtio: console: tell host of open ports after resume from s3/s4
If a port was open before going into one of the sleep states, the port
can continue normal operation after restore.  However, the host has to
be told that the guest side of the connection is open to restore
pre-suspend state.

This wasn't noticed so far due to a bug in qemu that was fixed recently
(which marked the guest-side connection as always open).

Stephen Boyd 234e340582 simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op.  This leads to a
proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire
tree.

Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we
can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().

This replacement was done with the following semantic patch:

<smpl>
@ open @
identifier open_f != simple_open;
identifier i, f;
@@
-int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f)
-{
(
-if (i->i_private)
-f->private_data = i->i_private;
|
-f->private_data = i->i_private;
)
-return 0;
-}

@ has_open depends on open @
identifier fops;
identifier open.open_f;
@@
struct file_operations fops = {
...
-.open = open_f,
+.open = simple_open,
...
};

Amit Shah c743d09dbd virtio: console: Disable callbacks for virtqueues at start of S4 freeze

Amit Shah 2b8f41d846 virtio: console: Add freeze and restore handlers to support S4
Remove all vqs and associated buffers in the freeze callback which
prepares us to go into hibernation state.  On restore, re-create all the
vqs and populate the input vqs with buffers to get to the pre-hibernate
state.

Note: Any outstanding unconsumed buffers are discarded; which means
there's a possibility of data loss in case the host or the guest didn't
consume any data already present in the vqs.  This can be addressed in a
later patch series, perhaps in virtio common code.

Christian Borntraeger 5e38483b35 virtio: console: wait for first console port for early console output
On s390 I have seen some random

"Warning: unable to open an initial console"

boot failure. Turns out that tty_open fails, because the
hvc_alloc was not yet done. In former times this could not happen,
since the probe function automatically called hvc_alloc. With newer
versions (multiport) some host<->guest interaction is required
before hvc_alloc is called. This might be too late, especially if
an initramfs is involved. Lets use a completion if we have
multiport and an early console.

[Amit:
  * Use NULL instead of 0 for pointer comparison
  * Rename 'port_added' to 'early_console_added'
  * Re-format, re-word commit message

Amit Shah 17e5b4f20a virtio: console: add port stats for bytes received, sent and discarded
This commit adds port-specific stats for the number of bytes received,
sent and discarded.  They're exposed via the debugfs interface.  This
data can be used to check for data loss bugs (or disprove such claims).
It can also be used for accounting, if there's such a need.

The stats remain valid throughout the lifetime of the port.  Unplugging
a port will reset the stats.  The numbers are not reset across port
opens/closes.

Amit Shah 291024ef35 virtio: console: Ignore port name update request if name already set
We don't allow port name changes dynamically for a port.  So any
requests by the host to change the name are ignored.

Before this patch, if the hypervisor sent a port name while we had one

name.

This scenario wasn't expected so far, but with the suspend-resume
support, we'll send the VIRTIO_CONSOLE_PORT_READY message after restore,
which can get us into this situation.

Amit Shah afa2689e19 virtio: console: Enable call to hvc_remove() on console port remove
This call was disabled as hot-unplugging one virtconsole port led to
another virtconsole port freezing.

Upon testing it again, this now works, so enable it.

In addition, a bug was found in qemu wherein removing a port of one type
caused the guest output from another port to stop working.  I doubt it
was just this bug that caused it (since disabling the hvc_remove() call
did allow other ports to continue working), but since it's all solved
now, we're fine with hot-unplugging of virtconsole ports.

When a port got hot-unplugged, when a port was open, any file operation
after the unplugging resulted in a crash. This is fixed by ref-counting

This splits the unplug operation in two parts: first marks the port
as unavailable, removes all the buffers in the vqs and removes the port
from the per-device list of ports. The second stage, invoked when all
references drop to zero, releases the chardev and frees all other memory.

Amit Shah 65745422a8 virtio: console: Prevent userspace from submitting NULL buffers
A userspace could submit a buffer with 0 length to be written to the
host.  Prevent such a situation.

This was not needed previously, but recent changes in the way write()
works exposed this condition to trigger a virtqueue event to the host,
causing a NULL buffer to be sent across.

Hans de Goede 6df7aadcd9 virtio: console: Fix poll blocking even though there is data to read
I found this while working on a Linux agent for spice, the symptom I was
seeing was select blocking on the spice vdagent virtio serial port even
though there were messages queued up there.

virtio_console's port_fops_poll checks port->inbuf != NULL to determine
if read won't block. However if an application reads enough bytes from
inbuf through port_fops_read, to empty the current port->inbuf,
port->inbuf will be NULL even though there may be buffers left in the
virtqueue.

This causes poll() to block even though there is data to be read,
this patch fixes this by using will_read_block(port) instead of the
port->inbuf != NULL check.

Amit Shah 60e5e0b840 virtio: console: Fix crash when port is unplugged and blocked for write
When a program that has a virtio port opened and blocked for a write
operation, a port hot-unplug event will later led to a crash when
SIGTERM was sent to the program. Fix that.

Amit Shah 0047634d3d virtio: console: Fix crash when hot-unplugging a port and read is blocked
When removing a port we don't check if a program was blocked for read.
This leads to a crash when SIGTERM is sent to the program after
hot-unplugging the port.

Julia Lawall 0643e4c6e4 drivers/char: Eliminate use after free
In each case, the first argument to send_control_msg or __send_control_msg,
respectively, has either not been successfully allocated or has been freed
at the point of the call.  In the first case, the first argument, port, is
only used to access the portdev and id fields, in order to call
__send_control_msg.  Thus it seems possible instead to call
__send_control_msg directly.  In the second case, the call to
__send_control_msg is moved up to a place where it seems like the first
argument, portdev, has been initialized sufficiently to make the call to
__send_control_msg meaningful.

This has only been compile tested.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

Amit Shah 8345adbf96 virtio: console: Accept console size along with resize control message
The VIRTIO_CONSOLE_RESIZE control message sent to us by the host now
contains the new {rows, cols} values for the console. This ensures each
console port gets its own size, and we don't depend on the config-space
rows and cols values at all now.
