Subject: [PATCH] tty: nozomi: lock tty_icount reads against the IRQ update path
Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2026 00:23:49 +0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260919192349.272409-1-meatuni001@gmail.com> (raw)

receive_flow_control() updates port->tty_icount.{cts,dsr,rng,dcd}
while interrupt_handler() holds dc->spin_mutex, but ntty_tiocgicount()
and the TIOCMIWAIT snapshot/compare loop in ntty_ioctl()/
ntty_cflags_changed() read the same multi-field struct with no lock
at all. A concurrent update can be observed mid-copy, and KCSAN flags
the unlocked access.

Add ntty_get_icount() to snapshot port->tty_icount under
dc->spin_mutex and use it at all three read sites, matching the lock
already used on the update side.

Fixes: 20fd1e3bea55 ("nozomi driver")
