tty: Allow uart_register/unregister/register

2012-06-01T07:12:56+00:00

commit 1e66cded334e6cea596c72f6f650eec351b1e959 upstream. This is legitimate but because we don't clear the drv->state pointer in the unregister code causes a bogus BUG(). Resolves-bug: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42880 Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Add missing call to uart_update_timeout()

2012-06-01T07:12:56+00:00

commit 8b979f7c6bf13a57e7b6002f1175312a44773960 upstream. This patch fixes a problem reported here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/155242/match=auart Signed-off-by: Lothar Waßmann Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit d3a7b83f865b46bb7b5e1ed18a129ce1af349db4 upstream. tty_unlock is used on all other exits from the function. Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Acked-by: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

pch_uart: Fix dma channel unallocated issue

2012-04-27T16:51:07+00:00

commit af6d17cdc8c89aeb3101f0d27cd32fc0592b40b2 upstream. This driver anticipates pch_uart_verify_port() is not called during installation. However, actually pch_uart_verify_port() is called during installation. As a result, memory access violation occurs like below. 0. initial value: use_dma=0 1. starup() - dma channel is not allocated because use_dma=0 2. pch_uart_verify_port() - Set use_dma=1 3. UART processing acts DMA mode because use_dma=1 - memory access violation occurs! This patch fixes the issue. Solution: Whenever pch_uart_verify_port() is called and then dma channel is not allocated, the channel should be allocated. Signed-off-by: Tomoya MORINAGA Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ARM: clps711x: serial driver hungs are a result of call disable_irq within ISR

2012-04-27T16:51:05+00:00

commit 7a6fbc9a887193a1e9f8658703881c528040afbc upstream. Since 2.6.30-rc1 clps711x serial driver hungs system. This is a result of call disable_irq from ISR. synchronize_irq waits for end of interrupt and goes to infinite loop. This patch fix this problem.

8250_pci: Fix kernel panic when pch_uart is disabled

2012-04-22T23:21:44+00:00

commit 64d91cfaade2155ad048fe3b65238a052e29dde4 upstream. Currently, ".setup" function is not set. As a result, when detecting our IOH's uart device without pch_uart, kernel panic occurs at the following of pciserial_init_ports(). for (i = 0; i < nr_ports; i++) { if (quirk->setup(priv, board, &serial_port, i)) break; So, this patch adds the ".setup" function. We can use pci_default_setup because our IOH's uart is compatible with 16550. Signed-off-by: Tomoya MORINAGA Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Tomoya MORINAGA Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

pch_uart: Set PCIe bus number using probe parameter

2012-04-22T23:21:43+00:00

commit 6c4b47d243112e98811ce0da7bbb32cc3857dd1a upstream. Currently, PCIe bus number is set as fixed value "2". However, PCIe bus number is not always "2". This patch sets bus number using probe() parameter. Signed-off-by: Tomoya MORINAGA Signed-off-by: Tomoya MORINAGA Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

serial: PL011: move interrupt clearing

2012-04-22T23:21:41+00:00

commit c3d8b76f61586714cdc5f219ba45592a54caaa55 upstream. Commit 360f748b204275229f8398cb2f9f53955db1503b "serial: PL011: clear pending interrupts" attempts to clear interrupts by writing to a yet-unassigned memory address. This fixes the issue. The breaking patch is marked for stable so should be carried along with the other patch.

serial: PL011: clear pending interrupts

2012-04-22T23:21:41+00:00

commit 9b96fbacda34079dea0638ee1e92c56286f6114a upstream. Chanho Min reported that when the boot loader transfers control to the kernel, there may be pending interrupts causing the UART to lock up in an eternal loop trying to pick tokens from the FIFO (since the RX interrupt flag indicates there are tokens) while in practice there are no tokens - in fact there is only a pending IRQ flag. This patch address the issue with a combination of two patches suggested by Russell King that clears and mask all interrupts at probe() and clears any pending error and RX interrupts at port startup time. We suspect the spurious interrupts are a side-effect of switching the UART from FIFO to non-FIFO mode.
