MR: https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/kernel/centos-stream-9/-/merge_requests/4777 # Merge Request Required Information ## Summary of Changes tty: add the option to have a tty reject a new ldisc ## Approved Development Ticket JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-48254 CVE: CVE-2024-40966 tty: add the option to have a tty reject a new ldisc ... and use it to limit the virtual terminals to just N_TTY. They are kind of special, and in particular, the "con_write()" routine violates the "writes cannot sleep" rule that some ldiscs rely on. This avoids the BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/printk/printk.c:2659 when N_GSM has been attached to a virtual console, and gsmld_write() calls con_write() while holding a spinlock, and con_write() then tries to get the console lock.
