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

2022-04-08T11:58:30Z

[ Upstream commit f58c252e30cf74f68b0054293adc03b5923b9f0e ] 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: 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.

tty: cumulate and document tty_struct::flow* members

2021-05-13T14:57:16Z

Group the flow flags under a single struct called flow. The new struct contains 'stopped' and 'tco_stopped' bools which used to be bits in a bitfield. The struct also contains the lock protecting them to potentially share the same cache line. Note that commit c545b66c6922b (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding (tty_struct::unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies some bytes from the next word. So make it reliable by: 1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and 2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct -- pads the end. This is also the perfect time to start the documentation of tty_struct where all this lives. So we start by documenting what these bools actually serve for. And why we do all the alignment dances.

serial: do not restore interrupt state in sysrq helper

2021-04-22T10:04:26Z

The uart_unlock_and_check_sysrq() helper can be used to defer processing of sysrq until the interrupt handler has released the port lock and is about to return. Since commit 81e2073c175b ("genirq: Disable interrupts for force threaded handlers") interrupt handlers that are not explicitly requested as threaded are always called with interrupts disabled and there is no need to save the interrupt state when taking the port lock. Instead of adding another sysrq helper for when the interrupt state has not needlessly been saved, drop the state parameter from uart_unlock_and_check_sysrq() and update its callers to no longer explicitly disable interrupts in their interrupt handlers.

earlycon: simplify earlycon-table implementation

2020-12-04T14:49:48Z

Instead of using the array-of-pointers trick to avoid having gcc mess up the earlycon array stride, specify type alignment when declaring entries to prevent gcc from increasing alignment. This is essentially an alternative (one-line) fix to the problem addressed by commit dd709e72cb93 ("earlycon: Use a pointer table to fix __earlycon_table stride"). gcc can increase the alignment of larger objects with static extent as an optimisation, but this can be suppressed by using the aligned attribute when declaring variables. Note that we have been relying on this behaviour for kernel parameters for 16 years and it indeed hasn't changed since the introduction of the aligned attribute in gcc-3.1.

treewide: Convert macro and uses of section(foo) to section("foo")

2020-10-25T21:51:49Z

Use a more generic form for __section that requires quotes to avoid complications with clang and gcc differences. Remove the quote operator # from compiler_attributes.h __section macro. Convert all unquoted __section(foo) uses to quoted __section("foo"). Also convert __attribute__((section("foo"))) uses to __section("foo") even if the __attribute__ has multiple list entry forms.

serial: core: fix console port-lock regression

2020-09-16T11:22:44Z

Fix the port-lock initialisation regression introduced by commit a3cb39d258ef ("serial: core: Allow detach and attach serial device for console") by making sure that the lock is again initialised during console setup. The console may be registered before the serial controller has been probed in which case the port lock needs to be initialised during console setup by a call to uart_set_options(). The console-detach changes introduced a regression in several drivers by effectively removing that initialisation by not initialising the lock when the port is used as a console (which is always the case during console setup). Add back the early lock initialisation and instead use a new console-reinit flag to handle the case where a console is being re-attached through sysfs. The question whether the console-detach interface should have been added in the first place is left for another discussion. Note that the console-enabled check in uart_set_options() is not redundant because of kgdboc, which can end up reinitialising an already enabled console (see commit 42b6a1baa3ec ("serial_core: Don't re-initialize a previously initialized spinlock.")).
