serial/8250_pci: add a "force background timer" flag and use it for the "kt" serial port

2012-04-22T22:38:57Z

commit bc02d15a3452fdf9276e8fb89c5e504a88df888a upstream. Workaround dropped notifications in the iir register. Register reads coincident with new interrupt notifications sometimes result in this device clearing the interrupt event without reporting it in the read data. The serial core already has a heuristic for determining when a device has an untrustworthy iir register. In this case when we apriori know that the iir is faulty use a flag (UPF_BUG_THRE) to bypass the test and force usage of the background timer.

Revert "serial/8250_pci: setup-quirk workaround for the kt serial controller"

2012-04-22T22:38:57Z

commit 49b532f96fda23663f8be35593d1c1372c0f91e0 upstream. This reverts commit 448ac154c957c4580531fa0c8f2045816fe2f0e7. The semantic of UPF_IIR_ONCE is only guaranteed to workaround the race condition in the kt serial's iir register if the only source of interrupts is THRE (fifo-empty) events. An modem status event at the wrong time can again cause an iir read to drop the 'empty' status leading to a hang. So, revert this in preparation for using the existing "I don't trust my iir register" workaround in the 8250 core (UART_BUG_THRE).

TTY: serial, cleanup include file

2011-11-15T23:58:56Z

There are some functions (uart_handle_dcd_change, _handle_cts_change, _insert_char) which are big enough to not be inlined. So move them from .h to .c. We need to export them so that modules can actually use them. They will be even bigger when we introduce tty refcounting to them. While at it, cleanup the "Proud member of Uglyhacks'R'US". It means, define uart_handle_sysrq_char only when SUPPORT_SYSRQ is set. Otherwise define it as a macro. This is needed for some arm driver where the second parameter is undefined if expanded.

serial: Support the EFR-register of XR1715x uarts.

2011-09-22T22:50:38Z

The EFR (Enhenced-Features-Register) is located at a different offset than the other devices supporting UART_CAP_EFR. This change add a special setup quick to set UPF_EXAR_EFR on the port. UPF_EXAR_EFR is then used to the port type to PORT_XR17D15X since it is for sure a XR17D15X uart. Signed-off-by: Søren Holm Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: serial8250: remove UPIO_DWAPB{,32}

Now that platforms can override the port IRQ handler and the only user of these UPIO modes has been converted over, kill off UPIO_DWAPB and UPIO_DWAPB32. Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Jamie Iles Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: serial: allow ports to override the irq handler

2011-08-23T17:52:58Z

Some serial ports may have unusal requirements for interrupt handling (e.g. the Synopsys DesignWare 8250-alike port and it's busy detect interrupt). Add a .handle_irq callback that can be used for platforms to override the interrupt behaviour in a similar fashion to the .serial_out and .serial_in callbacks.

TTY: serial, remove tasklet for tty_wakeup

2011-08-23T17:34:06Z

tty_wakeup can be called from any context. So there is no need to have an extra tasklet for calling that. Hence save some space and remove the tasklet completely. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Cc: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
