Sending a break on the SOC UARTs found in some MPC83xx/85xx/86xx
chips seems to cause a short lived IRQ storm (/proc/interrupts
typically shows somewhere between 300 and 1500 events). Unfortunately
this renders SysRQ over the serial console completely inoperable.The suggested workaround in the errata is to read the Rx register,
wait one character period, and then read the Rx register again.
We achieve this by tracking the old LSR value, and on the subsequent
interrupt event after a break, we don't read LSR, instead we just
read the RBR again and return immediately.The "fsl,ns16550" is used in the compatible field of the serial
device to mark UARTs known to have this issue.Thanks to Scott Wood for providing the errata data which led to
a much cleaner fix.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

For drivers that need to construct their own IRQ handler, the
three components are seen in the current handle_port -- i.e.
Rx, Tx and modem_status.Make these exported symbols so that "almost" 8250 UARTs can
construct their own IRQ handler with these shared components,
while working around their own unique errata issues.The function names are given a serial8250 prefix, since they
are now entering the global namespace.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

This reverts commit 6b1a98d1c4851235d9b6764b3f7b7db7909fc760.
It causes a build error that needs to be resolved differently.

The Synopsys DesignWare 8250 is an 8250 that has an extra interrupt that
gets raised when writing to the LCR when busy. To handle this we need
special serial_out, serial_in and handle_irq methods. Add a new
function serial8250_use_designware_io() that configures a uart_port with
these accessors.Cc: Alan Cox

Some ports (e.g. Synopsys DesignWare 8250) have special requirements for
handling the interrupts. Allow these platforms to specify their own
interrupt handler that will override the default.
serial8250_handle_irq() is provided so that platforms can extend the IRQ
handler rather than completely replacing it.Signed-off-by: Jamie Iles

Not every platform that has generic legacy 8250 ports manages to have them
clocked the right way or without errata. Provide a generic interface to
allow platforms to override the default behaviour in a manner that dumps
the complexity in *their* code not the 8250 driver.Signed-off-by: Alan Cox

UART Features extract from STEricsson U6715 data-sheet (arm926 SoC for mobile phone):
* Fully compatible with industry standard 16C550 and 16C450 from various
manufacturers
* RX and TX 64 byte FIFO reduces CPU interrupts
* Full double buffering
* Modem control signals include CTS, RTS, (and DSR, DTR on UART1 only)
* Automatic baud rate selection
* Manual or automatic RTS/CTS smart hardware flow control
* Programmable serial characteristics:
– Baud rate generation (50 to 3.25M baud)
– 5, 6, 7 or 8-bit characters
– Even, odd or no-parity bit generation and detection
– 1, 1.5 or 2 stop bit generation
* Independent control of transmit, receive, line status, data set interrupts and FIFOs
* Full status-reporting capabilities
* Separate DMA signaling for RX and TX
* Timed interrupt to spread receive interrupt on known duration
* DMA time-out interrupt to allow detection of end of reception
* Carkit pulse coding and decoding compliant with USB carkit control interface [40]In 16550A auto-configuration, if the fifo size is 64 then it's an U6 16550A port

There is currently no provision for passing IRQ trigger flags for
serial IRQs with triggering requirements (such as GPIO IRQs)This patch adds irqflags to plat_serial8250_port that can be passed
from board file to reqest_irq() of 8250 driverChanges are backward compatible with boards passing UPF_SHARE_IRQ flag
Tested on Zoom2 board that has IRQF_TRIGGER_RISING requirement for 8250 irq

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.The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific
special cases in the probing code.Signed-off-by: David Daney

In order to use Cavium OCTEON specific serial i/o drivers, we first
patch the 8250 driver to use replaceable I/O functions. Compatible
I/O functions are added for existing iotypeS.An added benefit of this change is that it makes it easy to factor
some of the existing special cases out to board/SOC specific support
code.The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific
iotype code and bug work-arounds.Signed-off-by: David Daney

This patch extends the sm501 mfd with 8250 uart support. We're currently
doing this in the board specific r2d-1 code already, but it would be nice to
do move things into the mfd since it's more chip specific than board specific.Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm

Allow the private_data field to be specified in platform_data for the
standard 8250/16550 UART. This field is used by DW APB type UARTs and
without this patch it's only possible to set this field when registering
the port by hand. If private_data is not set then the driver will
potentially oops with a NULL pointer dereference.Signed-off-by: Will Newton

At present, various parts of the serial code use unsigned long to define
resource addresses. This is a problem, because some 32-bit platforms have
physical addresses larger than 32-bits, and have mmio serial uarts located
above the 4GB point.This patch changes the type of mapbase in both struct uart_port and struct
plat_serial8250_port to resource_size_t, which can be configured to be 64
bits on such platforms. The mapbase in serial_struct can't safely be
changed, because that structure is user visible.Signed-off-by: David Gibson

Beacuse SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is removed from include/asm-i386/serial.h and
include/asm-x86_64/serial.h. the serial8250_ports need to be probed late in
serial initializing stage. the console_init=>serial8250_console_init=>
register_console=>serial8250_console_setup will return -ENDEV, and console
ttyS0 can not be enabled at that time. need to wait till uart_add_one_port in
drivers/serial/serial_core.c to call register_console to get console ttyS0.
that is too late.Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier. Make
it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover feature.
and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console automatically.new command line will be:
console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8
console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8
or
earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8
earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8it will print in very early stage:
Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8')
console [uart0] enabled
later for console it will print:

This is on our "Envoy" boxes which we have, according to the documentation, an
"Exar ST16C554/554D Quad UART with 16-byte Fifo's". The box also has two
other "on-board" serial ports and a modem chip.The two on-board serial UARTs were being detected along with the first two
Exar UARTs. The last two Exar UARTs were not showing up and neither was the
modem.This patch was the only way I could the kernel to see beyond the standard four
serial ports and get all four of the Exar UARTs to show up.[akpm@osdl.org: build fix]

Same reasoning as commit 747c8a55946ed037bf7d62454c3c599c02af2262
but this time we're making uart_port flags a bitwise type - not
all of these flags correspond with the old ASYNC_ flags, so there
is the possibility for bugs if the wrong ASYNC_* constants are
used. Always use UPF_* constants for uart_port->flags.Signed-off-by: Russell King

Add separate files for the different 8250 ISA-based serial boards.
Looking across all the various architectures, it seems reasonable that
we can key the availability of the configuration options for these
beasts to the bus-related symbols (iow, CONFIG_ISA). We also standardise
the base baud/uart clock rate for these boards - I'm sure that isn't
architecture specific, but is solely dependent on the crystal fitted
on the board (which should be the same no matter what type of machine
its fitted into.)Signed-off-by: Russell King

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
