Revert "serial: 8250_pci: add support for another kind of NetMos Technology PCI 9835 Multi-I/O Controller"

2013-07-13T18:03:41+00:00

commit 828c6a102b1f2b8583fadc0e779c46b31d448f0b upstream. This reverts commit 8d2f8cd424ca0b99001f3ff4f5db87c4e525f366. As reported by Stefan, this device already works with the parport_serial driver, so the 8250_pci driver should not also try to grab it as well.

pch_uart: fix a deadlock when pch_uart as console

2013-07-03T17:59:05+00:00

commit 384e301e3519599b000c1a2ecd938b533fc15d85 upstream. When we use pch_uart as system console like 'console=ttyPCH0,115200', then 'send break' to it. We'll encounter the deadlock on a cpu/core, with interrupts disabled on the core. When we happen to have all irqs affinity to cpu0 then the deadlock on cpu0 actually deadlock whole system. In pch_uart_interrupt, we have spin_lock_irqsave(&priv->lock, flags) then call pch_uart_err_ir when break is received. Then the call to dev_err would actually call to pch_console_write then we'll run into another spin_lock(&priv->lock), with interrupts disabled. So in the call sequence lead by pch_uart_interrupt, we should be carefully to call functions that will 'print message to console' only in case the uart port is not being used as serial console.

serial_core.c: add put_device() after device_find_child()

2013-05-08T02:51:53+00:00

commit 5a65dcc04cda41f4122aacc37a5a348454645399 upstream. The serial core uses device_find_child() but does not drop the reference to the retrieved child after using it. This patch add the missing put_device(). What I have done to test this issue. I used a machine with an AMBA PL011 serial driver. I tested the patch on next-20120408 because the last branch [next-20120415] does not boot on this board. For test purpose, I added some pr_info() messages to print the refcount after device_find_child() (lines: 1937,2009), and after put_device() (lines: 1947, 2021). Boot the machine *without* put_device(). Then: echo reboot > /sys/power/disk echo disk > /sys/power/state [ 87.058575] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4 [ 87.058582] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 4 [ 87.098083] uart_resume_port:2009refcount 5 [ 87.098088] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 5 echo disk > /sys/power/state [ 103.055574] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 6 [ 103.055580] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 6 [ 103.095322] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 7 [ 103.095327] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 7 echo disk > /sys/power/state [ 252.459580] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 8 [ 252.459586] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 8 [ 252.499611] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 9 [ 252.499616] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 9 The refcount continuously increased.

tty: serial: fix typo "ARCH_S5P6450"

commit 827aa0d36d486f359808c8fb931cf7a71011a09d upstream. This could have been either ARCH_S5P64X0 or CPU_S5P6450.

As Russell has pointed out, that commit isn't fixing Software Flow Control at all, and it actually makes it even more broken. It was agreed to revert this commit and use Russell's latest UART patches instead.
