From a8c5b8255f8a9acd58a4b15ff1c14cd6effd114b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Starke daniel.starke@siemens.com Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2022 00:10:23 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tty: n_gsm: fix broken virtual tty handling
Dynamic virtual tty registration was introduced to allow the user to handle these cases with uevent rules. The following commits relate to this: Commit 5b87686e3203 ("tty: n_gsm: Modify gsmtty driver register method when config requester") Commit 0b91b5332368 ("tty: n_gsm: Save dlci address open status when config requester") Commit 46292622ad73 ("tty: n_gsm: clean up indenting in gsm_queue()")
However, the following behavior can be seen with this implementation: - n_gsm ldisc is activated via ioctl - all configuration parameters are set to their default value (initiator=0) - the mux gets activated and attached and gsmtty0 is being registered in in gsm_dlci_open() after DLCI 0 was established (DLCI 0 is the control channel) - the user configures n_gsm via ioctl GSMIOC_SETCONF as initiator - this re-attaches the n_gsm mux - no new gsmtty devices are registered in gsmld_attach_gsm() because the mux is already active - the initiator side registered only the control channel as gsmtty0 (which should never happen) and no user channel tty
The commits above make it impossible to operate the initiator side as no user channel tty is or will be available. On the other hand, this behavior will make it also impossible to allow DLCI parameter negotiation on responder side in the future. The responder side first needs to provide a device for the application before the application can set its parameters of the associated DLCI via ioctl. Note that the user application is still able to detect a link establishment without relaying to uevent by waiting for DTR open on responder side. This is the same behavior as on a physical serial interface. And on initiator side a tty hangup can be detected if a link establishment request failed.
Revert the commits above completely to always register all user channels and no control channel after mux attachment. No other changes are made.
