Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] serial: fix ioctl hangup race
Date: Mon,  7 Sep 2026 08:44:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907064418.92953-1-johan@kernel.org> (raw)

The tty ioctls can race with hangup and end up calling into a tty
driver for a device that is already gone or powered down.

Included in v3 are also two related fixes for issues highlighted by
Sashiko.

Johan


Changes in v3
 - revert guards in uart_wait_modem_status()
 - fix race in TIOCMIWAIT (new)
 - abort TIOCMIWAIT on hangup (new)

Changes in v2
 - include TIOCMIWAIT which also access hardware
  - replace broken scoped_guard() construct in wait loop


Johan Hovold (4):
  serial: revert guards in uart_wait_modem_status()
  serial: fix ioctl hangup race
  serial: fix TIOCMIWAIT race
