serial: 8250: Fix __stop_tx() & DMA Tx restart races
Commit e8ffbb71f783 ("serial: 8250: use THRE & __stop_tx also with DMA") changed __dma_tx_complete() to enable THRI that is cleared in __stop_tx() once THRE is asserted as UART runs out bits to transmit. It is possible, however, that more data arrives in between in which case serial8250_tx_dma() resumes Tx. THRI is not supposed to be on during DMA Tx because DMA is based on completion handler, therefore THRI must be cleared unconditionally in serial8250_tx_dma(). When Tx is about to start, another race window exists with serial8250_handle_irq() leading to a call into __stop_tx() while the Tx has already been resumed: __tx_complete(): -> spin_lock(port->lock) -> dma->tx_running = 0 -> serial8250_set_THRI() -> spin_unlock(port->lock) uart_start(): serial8250_handle_irq(): -> spin_lock(port->lock) -> serial8250_tx_dma(): -> dma->tx_running = 1 -> spin_unlock(port->lock) -> spin_lock(port->lock) -> __stop_tx() Close this race by checking !dma->tx_running before calling into __stop_tx().
