[ Upstream commit 9906890c89e4dbd900ed87ad3040080339a7f411 ]

A SERIAL_8250_16550A_VARIANTS configuration option has been recently
defined that lets one request the 8250 driver not to probe for 16550A
device features so as to reduce the driver's device startup time in
virtual machines.

Some actual hardware devices require these features to have been fully
determined however for their driver to work correctly, so define a flag
to let drivers request full 16550A feature probing on a device-by-device
basis if required regardless of the SERIAL_8250_16550A_VARIANTS option
setting chosen.

commit e77cab77f2cb3a1ca2ba8df4af45bb35617ac16d upstream.

A very common pattern in the drivers is to advance xmit tail
index and do bookkeeping of Tx'ed characters. Create
uart_xmit_advance() to handle it.

commit f9b11229b79c0fb2100b5bb4628a101b1d37fbf6 upstream.

When console is enabled, univ8250_console_setup() calls
serial8250_console_setup() before .dev is set to uart_port. Therefore,
it will not call pm_runtime_get_sync(). Later, when the actual driver
is going to take over univ8250_console_exit() is called. As .dev is
already set, serial8250_console_exit() makes pm_runtime_put_sync() call
with usage count being zero triggering PM usage count warning
(extra debug for univ8250_console_setup(), univ8250_console_exit(), and
serial8250_register_ports()):

[    0.068987] univ8250_console_setup ttyS0 nodev

[    1.978167] printk: console [ttyS0] printing thread started

To fix the issue, call pm_runtime_get_sync() in
serial8250_register_ports() as soon as .dev is set for an uart_port
if it has console enabled.

This problem became apparent only recently because 82586a721595 ("PM:
runtime: Avoid device usage count underflows") added the warning
printout. I confirmed this problem also occurs with v5.18 (w/o the
warning printout, obviously).

<content type='text'>
[ 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).

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.

<title>serial: core: fix console port-lock regression</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e0830dbf71f191851ed3772d2760f007b7c5bc3a</id>
<content type='text'>
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.")).

The sysrq timestamp will never be set unless port-&gt;has_sysrq is set (see
uart_handle_break()) so drop the redundant checks that were added by
commit 1997e9dfdc84 ("serial_core: Un-ifdef sysrq SUPPORT_SYSRQ").

Commit 8e20fc391711 ("serial_core: Move sysrq functions from header
file") converted the inline sysrq helpers to exported functions which
are now called for every received character, interrupt and break signal
also on systems without CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL instead of being
optimised away by the compiler.

Inlining these helpers again also avoids the function call overhead when
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL is enabled (e.g. when the port is not used as
a console).

This reverts commit da9a5aa3402db0ff3b57216d8dbf2478e1046cae.

In order to ease backporting a fix for a sysrq regression, revert this
rewrite which was since added on top.

The other sysrq helpers now bail out early when sysrq is not enabled;
it's better to keep that pattern here as well.

Note that the __releases() attribute won't be needed after the follow-on
fix either.
