syzbot is reporting stalls at __process_echoes() [1]. This is because since ldata->echo_commit < ldata->echo_tail becomes true for some reason, the discard loop is serving as almost infinite loop. This patch tries to avoid falling into ldata->echo_commit < ldata->echo_tail situation by making access to echo_* variables more carefully. Since reset_buffer_flags() is called without output_lock held, it should not touch echo_* variables. And omit a call to reset_buffer_flags() from n_tty_open() by using vzalloc(). Since add_echo_byte() is called without output_lock held, it needs memory barrier between storing into echo_buf[] and incrementing echo_head counter. echo_buf() needs corresponding memory barrier before reading echo_buf[]. Lack of handling the possibility of not-yet-stored multi-byte operation might be the reason of falling into ldata->echo_commit < ldata->echo_tail situation, for if I do WARN_ON(ldata->echo_commit == tail + 1) prior to echo_buf(ldata, tail + 1), the WARN_ON() fires. Also, explicitly masking with buffer for the former "while" loop, and use ldata->echo_commit > tail for the latter "while" loop.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
