[PATCH 1/1] tty: serial: owl: Initialize lock before registering port

[PATCH 1/1] tty: serial: owl: Initialize lock before registering port

[Cristian Ciocaltea]

Running a lockdep-enabled kernel leads to the following splat when
probing the owl-uart driver:

[    1.271784] b0124000.serial: ttyOWL2 at MMIO 0xb0124000 (irq = 22, base_baud = 1500000) is a owl-uart

[    1.508914] printk: console [ttyOWL2] enabled

The locking issue occurs in uart_configure_port() when trying to
guard the call to set_mctrl().

uart_add_one_port() should normally initialize the spinlock via
uart_port_spin_lock_init(), but it never happens because the port is
detected as a console and, as a consequence, the spinlock is expected
to be already initialized.

The commit a3cb39d258ef
("serial: core: Allow detach and attach serial device for console")
changed the lock initialization logic to assume the spinlock is
initialized even if the console is not enabled.

Therefore, initialize the lock explicitly in owl_uart_probe(), before
attempting to invoke uart_add_one_port().

Fixes: a3cb39d258ef ("serial: core: Allow detach and attach serial device for console")

Thanks. If this is the expected pattern now, I'll also have to update 
in-flight patches, such as Sunplus.

Expected is to register properly console via register_console() call.
If you do so, you also need to initialize spin lock before coming to
uart_add_one_port().
It seems drivers (ab)used that feature.

$ git grep -n -w register_console -- drivers/tty/serial/ | cut -f1 -d:
| sort -u | wc -l
    37
$ git grep -n _CONSOLE -- drivers/tty/serial/ | cut -f1 -d:  | sort -u | wc -l
    77

But as a quick fix this initialization is okay.

Hi Greg,

I think this was mistakenly omitted from the inclusion in v5.8, or
has it been postponed for v5.9?

I can't find it anywhere :(

But I think we now have a core fix for this, no need to do this in any
individual driver, right?  Can you test my tty-linus branch to see if
your change is still needed or not?

I was not aware of the alternative approach, at that time Andy
confirmed the expected behaviour is to have a proper initialization
of the spinlock in the driver:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHp75Vcz0a87LSnb6Ubt5_bSF3wUcs21GbP119trXER5KBDxbQ@mail.gmail.com/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHp75Vf8xJ2yX-11JsTDnRvZQOK+16aePcB1AUzq=5oO-mFCGQ@mail.gmail.com/

I have just checked the tty-linus tree and the only related change
seems to be f743061a85f5
("serial: core: Initialise spin lock before use in uart_configure_port()")

I tested it on top of 5.8.0-rc4 and I confirm it fixes the splat,
however I'm a bit confused now regarding the recommended approach since
there is at least one more commit in the tty-linux tree that still 
handles a similar issue in the driver specific code:
f38278e9b810 ("serial: sh-sci: Initialize spinlock for uart console")

Thanks,
Cristi

Thank you for the testing!

They now should be reverted.
