serial: 8250: Let drivers request full 16550A feature probing

2022-10-24T07:56:49Z

commit 9906890c89e4dbd900ed87ad3040080339a7f411 upstream. A SERIAL_8250_16550A_VARIANTS configuration option has been recently defined that lets one request the 8250 driver not to probe for 16550A device features so as to reduce the driver's device startup time in virtual machines. Some actual hardware devices require these features to have been fully determined however for their driver to work correctly, so define a flag to let drivers request full 16550A feature probing on a device-by-device basis if required regardless of the SERIAL_8250_16550A_VARIANTS option setting chosen.

serial: Create uart_xmit_advance()

2022-09-28T09:32:22Z

commit e77cab77f2cb3a1ca2ba8df4af45bb35617ac16d upstream. A very common pattern in the drivers is to advance xmit tail index and do bookkeeping of Tx'ed characters. Create uart_xmit_advance() to handle it.

serial: 8250: Fix PM usage_count for console handover

2022-06-30T15:17:31Z

When console is enabled, univ8250_console_setup() calls serial8250_console_setup() before .dev is set to uart_port. Therefore, it will not call pm_runtime_get_sync(). Later, when the actual driver is going to take over univ8250_console_exit() is called. As .dev is already set, serial8250_console_exit() makes pm_runtime_put_sync() call with usage count being zero triggering PM usage count warning (extra debug for univ8250_console_setup(), univ8250_console_exit(), and serial8250_register_ports()): [ 0.068987] univ8250_console_setup ttyS0 nodev [ 0.499670] printk: console [ttyS0] enabled [ 0.717955] printk: console [ttyS0] printing thread started [ 1.960163] serial8250_register_ports assigned dev for ttyS0 [ 1.976830] printk: console [ttyS0] disabled [ 1.976888] printk: console [ttyS0] printing thread stopped [ 1.977073] univ8250_console_exit ttyS0 usage:0 [ 1.977075] serial8250 serial8250: Runtime PM usage count underflow!

This problem became apparent only recently because 82586a721595 ("PM: runtime: Avoid device usage count underflows") added the warning printout. I confirmed this problem also occurs with v5.18 (w/o the warning printout, obviously).

serial: core: Introduce callback for start_rx and do stop_rx in suspend only if this callback implementation is present.

2022-06-10T11:30:41Z

In suspend sequence there is a need to perform stop_rx during suspend sequence to prevent any asynchronous data over rx line. However this can cause problem to drivers which dont do re-start_rx during set_termios. Add new callback start_rx and perform stop_rx only when implementation of start_rx is present. Also add call to start_rx in resume sequence so that drivers who come across this problem can make use of this framework.

serial: Store character timing information to uart_port

2022-04-26T11:28:32Z

Struct uart_port currently stores FIFO timeout. Having character timing information readily available is useful. Even serial core itself determines char_time from port->timeout using inverse calculation. Store frame_time directly into uart_port. Character time is stored in nanoseconds to have reasonable precision with high rates. To avoid overflow, 64-bit math is necessary. It might be possible to determine timeout from frame_time by multiplying it with fifosize as needed but only part of the users seem to be protected by a lock. Thus, this patch does not pursue storing only frame_time in uart_port.

serial: 8250: fix XOFF/XON sending when DMA is used

2022-03-18T12:30:54Z

When 8250 UART is using DMA, x_char (XON/XOFF) is never sent to the wire. After this change, x_char is injected correctly. Create uart_xchar_out() helper for sending the x_char out and accounting related to it. It seems that almost every driver does these same steps with x_char. Except for 8250, however, almost all currently lack .serial_out so they cannot immediately take advantage of this new helper. The downside of this patch is that it might reintroduce the problems some devices faced with mixed DMA/non-DMA transfer which caused revert f967fc8f165f (Revert "serial: 8250_dma: don't bother DMA with small transfers"). However, the impact should be limited to cases with XON/XOFF (that didn't work with DMA capable devices to begin with so this problem is not very likely to cause a major issue, if any at all).

serial: make uart_console_write->putchar()'s character an unsigned char

2022-03-03T14:06:31Z

Currently, uart_console_write->putchar's second parameter (the character) is of type int. It makes little sense, provided uart_console_write() accepts the input string as "const char *s" and passes its content -- the characters -- to putchar(). So switch the character's type to unsigned char. We don't use char as that is signed on some platforms. That would cause troubles for drivers which (implicitly) cast the char to u16 when writing to the device. Sign extension would happen in that case and the value written would be completely different to the provided char. DZ is an example of such a driver -- on MIPS, it uses u16 for dz_out in dz_console_putchar(). Note we do the char -> uchar conversion implicitly in uart_console_write(). Provided we do not change size of the data type, sign extension does not happen there, so the problem is void. This makes the types consistent and unified with the rest of the uart layer, which uses unsigned char in most places already. One exception is xmit_buf, but that is going to be converted later.

serial: 8250: fix handle_irq locking

2021-07-21T10:53:26Z

The 8250 handle_irq callback is not just called from the interrupt handler but also from a timer callback when polling (e.g. for ports without an interrupt line). Consequently the callback must explicitly disable interrupts to avoid a potential deadlock with another interrupt in polled mode. Add back an irqrestore-version of the sysrq port-unlock helper and use it in the 8250 callbacks that need it.
