From 643760ff0fcfde9416667b19cca167658fd5381d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Starke Date: Wed, 4 May 2022 10:17:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tty: n_gsm: fix mux activation issues in gsm_config() commit edd5f60c340086891fab094ad61270d6c80f9ca4 upstream. The current implementation activates the mux if it was restarted and opens the control channel if the mux was previously closed and we are now acting as initiator instead of responder, which is the default setting. This has two issues. 1) No mux is activated if we keep all default values and only switch to initiator. The control channel is not allocated but will be opened next which results in a NULL pointer dereference. 2) Switching the configuration after it was once configured while keeping the initiator value the same will not reopen the control channel if it was closed due to parameter incompatibilities. The mux remains dead. Fix 1) by always activating the mux if it is dead after configuration. Fix 2) by always opening the control channel after mux activation.
