If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Tejun Heo commit 28b0f8a6962a24ed21737578f3b1b07424635c9e upstream. A tty is hung up by __tty_hangup() setting file->f_op to hung_up_tty_fops, which is skipped on ttys whose write operation isn't tty_write(). This means that, for example, /dev/console whose write op is redirected_tty_write() is never actually marked hung up. Because n_tty_read() uses the hung up status to decide whether to abort the waiting readers, the lack of hung-up marking can lead to the following scenario. 1. A session contains two processes. The leader and its child. The child ignores SIGHUP. 2. The leader exits and starts disassociating from the controlling terminal (/dev/console). 3. __tty_hangup() skips setting f_op to hung_up_tty_fops. 4. SIGHUP is delivered and ignored. 5. tty_ldisc_hangup() is invoked. It wakes up the waits which should clear the read lockers of tty->ldisc_sem. 6. The reader wakes up but because tty_hung_up_p() is false, it doesn't abort and goes back to sleep while read-holding tty->ldisc_sem. 7. The leader progresses to tty_ldisc_lock() in tty_ldisc_hangup() and is now stuck in D sleep indefinitely waiting for tty->ldisc_sem. The following is Alan's explanation on why some ttys aren't hung up. http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171101170908.6ad08580@alans-desktop 1. It broke the serial consoles because they would hang up and close down the hardware. With tty_port that *should* be fixable properly for any cases remaining. 2. The console layer was (and still is) completely broken and doens't refcount properly. So if you turn on console hangups it breaks (as indeed does freeing consoles and half a dozen other things). As neither can be fixed quickly, this patch works around the problem by introducing a new flag, TTY_HUPPING, which is used solely to tell n_tty_read() that hang-up is in progress for the console and the readers should be aborted regardless of the hung-up status of the device. The following is a sample hung task warning caused by this issue. INFO: task agetty:2662 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
