2009-02-208250: fix boot hang with serial console when using with Serial Over Lan portMauro Carvalho Chehab
Intel 8257x Ethernet boards have a feature called Serial Over Lan. This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by kernel as a normal 8250 port. However, this emulation is not perfect, as also noticed on changeset 7500b1f602aad75901774a67a687ee985d85893f. Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is capable of work using IRQ's. This were done with a code similar this: serial_outp(up, UART_IER, UART_IER_THRI); lsr = serial_in(up, UART_LSR); iir = serial_in(up, UART_IIR); serial_outp(up, UART_IER, 0); if (lsr & UART_LSR_TEMT && iir & UART_IIR_NO_INT) up->bugs |= UART_BUG_TXEN; This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register. Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled. However, as TX IRQ keeps working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the serial console. This is the 6 version of this patch. Previous versions were trying to introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up, UART_IIR), but not taking forever. However, the needed delay couldn't be safely determined. At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but still hangs sometimes. Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still doesn't solve. A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time. However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk. So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

2009-02-18atmel_serial might lose modem status changeAtsushi Nemoto
I found a problem of handling of modem status of atmel_serial driver. With the commit 1ecc26 ("atmel_serial: split the interrupt handler"), handling of modem status signal was splitted into two parts. The atmel_tasklet_func() compares new status with irq_status_prev, but irq_status_prev is not correct if signal status was changed while the port is closed. Here is a sequence to cause problem: 1. Remote side sets CTS (and DSR). 2. Local side close the port. 3. Local side clears RTS and DTR. 4. Remote side clears CTS and DSR. 5. Local side reopen the port. hw_stopped becomes 1. 6. Local side sets RTS and DTR. 7. Remote side sets CTS and DSR. Then CTS change interrupt can be received, but since CTS bit in irq_status_prev and new status is same, uart_handle_cts_change() will not be called (so hw_stopped will not be cleared, i.e. cannot send any data). I suppose irq_status_prev should be initialized at somewhere in open sequence. Itai Levi pointed out that we need to initialize atmel_port->irq_status as well here. His analysis is as follows: > Regarding the second part of the patch (which resets irq_status_prev), > it turns out that both versions of the patch (mine and Atsushi's) > still leave enough room for faulty behavior when opening the port. > > This is because we are not resetting both irq_status_prev and > irq_status in atmel_startup() to CSR, which leads faulty behavior in > the following sequences: > > First case: > 1. closing the port while CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed) > 2. setting CTS line = 0 (TX allowed) > 3. opening the port > 4. transmitting one char > 5. Cannot transmit more chars, although CTS line is 0 > > Second case: > 1. closing the port while CTS line = 0 (TX allowed) > 2. setting CTS line = 1 (TX not allowed) > 3. opening the port > 4. receiving some chars > 5. Now we can transmit, although CTS line is 1 > > This reason for this is that the tasklet is scheduled as a result of > TX or RX interrupts (not a status change!), in steps 4 above.

2009-01-15When a break signal is detected, the next character should be ignored.Mischa Jonker
This was not implemented correctly for the pnx8xxx_uart driver. [From further discussion: Correct, you can look to it as two separate bugs: a) the next character is not ignored while it should; b) the status bits 31-8 are copied to the 'ch' variable while they shouldn't. Both bugs prevent correct break signal handling (and therefore correct behaviour of the magic SysRq key). Bug b didn't cause too much trouble earlier because in most situations the status bits are all zero; for this case they unfortunately aren't. ] Signed-off-by: Mischa Jonker <mischa.jonker@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-01-13fix early_serial_setup() regressionHelge Deller
Commit b430428a188e8a434325e251d0704af4b88b4711 ("8250: Don't clobber spinlocks.") introduced a regression on the parisc architecture, which broke the handover to the serial port at boottime. early_serial_setup() was changed to only copy a subset of the uart_port fields, and sadly the "type" and "line" fields were forgotten and thus the serial port was not initialized and could not be used for a handover. This patch fixes this by copying the missing fields. As this change to early_serial_setup() doesn't need an initialized spinlock in the uart_port struct any longer, we can drop the spinlock initialization in the superio driver.

Add flag value UPF_FIXED_TYPE which specifies that the UART type is known and should not be probed. For this case the UARTs properties are just copied out of the uart_config entry. This allows us to keep SOC specific 8250 probe code out of 8250.c. In this case we know the serial hardware will not be changing as it is on the same silicon as the CPU, and we can specify it with certainty in the board/cpu setup code.

2009-01-02tty: We want the port object to be persistentAlan Cox
Move the tty_port and uart_info bits around a little. By embedding the uart_info into the uart_port we get rid of lots of corner case testing and also get the ability to go port<->state<->info which is a bit more elegant than the current data structures. Downsides - we allocate a tiny bit more memory for unused ports, upside we've removed as much code as it saved for most users..
