commit 2e211723953f7740e54b53f3d3a0d5e351a5e223 upstream.
dw8250_handle_irq() calls serial8250_handle_irq_locked() with the port
lock held via guard(uart_port_lock_irqsave). The guard destructor is
plain uart_port_unlock_irqrestore(), so a SysRq character captured into
port->sysrq_ch by uart_prepare_sysrq_char() is dropped without ever
being dispatched to handle_sysrq().
This is the same regression pattern as in serial8250_handle_irq(),
introduced when 883c5a2bc934 ("serial: 8250_dw: Rework
dw8250_handle_irq() locking and IIR handling") moved the function to
the guard()-based locking scheme without using the sysrq-aware unlock
helper.
Switch to guard(uart_port_lock_check_sysrq_irqsave) so that captured
sysrq_ch is dispatched on scope exit, matching the fix in
serial8250_handle_irq().

commit 71f42b2149a1307a97165b409493665579462ea0 upstream.
serial8250_handle_irq() captures a SysRq character into port->sysrq_ch
inside serial8250_handle_irq_locked() via uart_prepare_sysrq_char()
(reached from serial8250_read_char()). Dispatch of that captured
character to handle_sysrq() is expected to happen at port-unlock time,
through uart_unlock_and_check_sysrq[_irqrestore]().
After commit 8324a54f604d ("serial: 8250: Add
serial8250_handle_irq_locked()") the function was reduced to a wrapper
that takes the port lock via guard(uart_port_lock_irqsave) whose
destructor is plain uart_port_unlock_irqrestore(). The sysrq-aware
unlock helper is no longer called, so port->sysrq_ch is captured but
never dispatched: BREAK + SysRq key is consumed silently.
This was the very condition Johan Hovold's 853a9ae29e978 ("serial:
8250: fix handle_irq locking", 2021) introduced
uart_unlock_and_check_sysrq_irqrestore() to address.
Switch to the new guard(uart_port_lock_check_sysrq_irqsave), whose
destructor is the sysrq-aware unlock helper, restoring the pre-split
behaviour. Update the Context: comment on serial8250_handle_irq_locked()
so future HW-specific 8250 wrappers know to use the same guard or the
explicit sysrq-aware unlock.
Verified on RTL8196E with CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_SERIAL=y: BREAK + 'h' on
the console UART produces the SysRq help dump in dmesg and the brk
counter in /proc/tty/driver/serial increments correctly.

(report at the offending commit) -- where a pointer is dereferenced that
has been derived from a null pointer to the port's parent device.
Since no device is available with legacy probing and it's not anymore a
preferable way to discover devices anyway, switch the driver to using a
platform device and use it as the port's parent device. Update resource
handling accordingly and only request the actual span of addresses used
within the slot, which will have had its resource already requested by
generic platform device code.
Use platform_driver_probe() not just because SCC devices are fixed with
solder on board and not straightforward to remove, but foremost because
the associated TTY's major device number is the same as used by the dz
driver and the first driver to claim it will prevent the other one from
using it. Either one DZ device or some SCC devices will be present in a
given system but never both at a time, and therefore we want the major
device number to be claimed by the first driver to actually successfully
bind to its device and platform_driver_probe() is a way to fulfil that.
An unfortunate consequence of the switch to a platform device is we now
hand the console over from the bootconsole much later in the bootstrap.
The firmware console handler appears good enough though to work so late
and in particular with interrupts enabled.
Since there is one way only remaining to reach zs_reset() now, remove
the port initialisation marker as no longer needed and go through the
channel reset unconditionally.

commit 8572955630f30948837088aa98bcbe0532d1ceac upstream.
Switch the driver to using the channel reset rather than hardware reset,
simplifying handling by removing an interference between channels that
causes the other channel to become uninitialised afterwards.
There is little difference between the two kinds of reset in terms of
register settings that result, and we initialise the whole register set
right away anyway. However this prevents a hang from happening should
the console output handler in the firmware try to access the other port
whose transmitter has been disabled and line parameters messed up.
For example this will happen if the keyboard port (port A) is chosen for
the system console, unusually but not insanely for a headless system, as
the port is wired to a standard DA-15 connector and an adapter can be
easily made. Or with the next change in place this would happen for the
regular console port (port B), since the keyboard port (port A) will be
initialised first.
Just remove the unnecessary complication then, a channel reset is good
enough. We still need the initialisation marker, now per channel rather
than per SCC, as for the console port zs_reset() will be called twice:
once early on via zs_serial_console_init() for the console setup only,
and then again via zs_config_port() as the port is associated with a TTY
device.

commit 6c05cf72e13314ce9b770b5951695dc5a2152920 upstream.
Calling zs_reset() in the course of setting up the serial device causes
line parameters to be reset and the transmitter disabled. We've been
lucky in that no message is usually produced to the kernel log between
this call and the later call to uart_set_options() in the course of
console setup done by zs_serial_console_init(), or the system would hang
as the console output handler in the firmware tried to access a port the
transmitter of which has been disabled and line parameters messed up.
This will change with the next change to the driver, so fix zs_reset()
such that line parameters are set for 9600n8 console operation as with
the system firmware and the transmitter re-enabled after reset. This
also means zs_pm() serves no purpose anymore, so drop it.

commit ca904f4b42355287bc5ce8b7550ebe909cda4c2c upstream.
In the DZ interface as implemented by the DC7085 gate array the serial
transmitters are double buffered, meaning that at the time a transmitter
is ready to accept the next character there is one in the transmit shift
register still being sent to the line. Issuing a master clear at this
time causes this character to be lost, so wait an extra amount of time
sufficient for the transmit shift register to drain at 9600bps, which is
the baud rate setting used by the firmware console.
Mind the specified 1.4us TRDY recovery time in the course and continue
using iob() as the completion barrier, since the platforms involved use
a write buffer that can delay and combine writes, and reorder them with
respect to reads regardless of the MMIO locations accessed and we still
lack a platform-independent handler for that.
When called from dz_serial_console_init() this is too early for fsleep()
to work and even before lpj has been calculated and therefore the delay
is actually not sufficient for the transmitter to drain and is merely a
placeholder now. This will be addressed in a follow-up change.

commit 9a9254c4a2a3ca2b3da16d173f3b0dd01f397ff6 upstream.
lpuart_start_rx_dma() allocates sport->rx_ring.buf with kzalloc() and
then maps a scatterlist via dma_map_sg(). On three subsequent error
paths the function returns directly without releasing those resources:
- when dma_map_sg() returns 0 (-EINVAL):
ring->buf is leaked.
- when dmaengine_slave_config() fails:
ring->buf and the DMA mapping are leaked.
- when dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic() returns NULL:
ring->buf and the DMA mapping are leaked.
The sole cleanup path, lpuart_dma_rx_free(), is only reached when
lpuart_dma_rx_use is set, and the caller lpuart_rx_dma_startup() clears
that flag on failure of lpuart_start_rx_dma(). So these resources are
permanently leaked on every failure in this function. Repeated port
open/close or termios changes under error conditions will slowly consume
memory and leave stale streaming DMA mappings behind.
Fix it by introducing two error labels that unmap the scatterlist and
free the ring buffer as appropriate. While here, replace the misleading
-EFAULT (bad userspace pointer) returned when dmaengine_prep_dma_cyclic()
fails with the more accurate -ENOMEM, matching how other dmaengine users
in the tree treat this failure.
No functional change on the success path.

commit 92b1ea22454b08a39baef3a7290fb3ec50366616 upstream.
The sci_request_port() function uses request_mem_region() to reserve
I/O memory, but in the error path when sci_remap_port() fails, it
incorrectly calls release_resource() instead of release_mem_region().
This mismatch can cause resource accounting issues. Fix it by using
the correct release function, consistent with sci_release_port().

commit 452d6fa37ae9b021f4f6d397dbae077f7296f6f4 upstream.
When uart_flush_buffer() runs before the DMA completion IRQ is delivered,
the following race can occur (all steps serialized by uart_port_lock):
1. DMA starts: tx_remaining = N, kfifo contains N bytes
2. DMA completes in hardware; IRQ is pending but not yet delivered
3. uart_flush_buffer() acquires the port lock and calls kfifo_reset(),
making kfifo_len() = 0 while tx_remaining remains N
4. uart_flush_buffer() releases the port lock
5. DMA IRQ fires; handle_tx_dma() acquires the port lock and calls
uart_xmit_advance(uport, tx_remaining) on an empty kfifo
uart_xmit_advance() increments kfifo->out by tx_remaining. Since
kfifo_reset() already set both in and out to 0, out wraps past in,
causing kfifo_len() to return UART_XMIT_SIZE - tx_remaining. The next
start_tx_dma() call then submits a DMA transfer of stale buffer data.
Fix this by snapshotting kfifo_len() at the start of handle_tx_dma()
and skipping uart_xmit_advance() when fifo_len < tx_remaining, which
indicates the kfifo was reset by a preceding flush.

commit ca2584d841b69391ffc4144840563d2e1a0018df upstream.
UART_RX_PAR_EN is incorrectly defined as bit 3, which triggers false
framing errors (S_GP_IRQ_1_EN) and causes received data to be dropped
when parity is enabled and the parity bit is 0.
Define UART_RX_PAR_EN as bit 4 of the SE_UART_RX_TRANS_CFG register, as
specified in the reference manual.

commit ea66be25f0e934f49d24cd0c5845d13cdba3520b upstream.
altera_jtaguart_probe() maps the register window before registering the
UART port, but it ignores failures from uart_add_one_port(). If port
registration fails, probe still returns success and the mapping remains
live until a later remove path that is not part of probe failure cleanup.
Return the uart_add_one_port() error and unmap the register window on
that failure path.
This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research while
reviewing kernel code.

commit a3bb136bff5e6a5e48cdd813246c9c4686feaaa9 upstream.
Sashiko identified a deadlock when the console flow is engaged [1].
When console flow control is enabled (UPF_CONS_FLOW),
s3c24xx_serial_stop_tx() calls s3c24xx_serial_rx_enable() and
s3c24xx_serial_start_tx() calls s3c24xx_serial_rx_disable().
The serial core framework invokes the .stop_tx() and .start_tx()
callbacks with the port->lock spinlock already held. Furthermore, all
internal driver paths that invoke stop_tx (such as the DMA TX
completion handler s3c24xx_serial_tx_dma_complete() or the PIO TX IRQ
handler s3c24xx_serial_tx_irq()) also acquire port->lock prior to
calling it. (Note that s3c24xx_serial_start_tx() is only invoked by the
serial core).
However, s3c24xx_serial_rx_enable() and s3c24xx_serial_rx_disable()
unconditionally attempt to acquire port->lock again using
uart_port_lock_irqsave(). Since spinlocks are not recursive, this
causes a deadlock on the same CPU when console flow control is engaged.
Remove the redundant lock acquisition from both rx helper functions.

Instead of discarding the saved unicode buffer when the console was
resized while in the alternate screen, resize it to the current
dimensions using vc_uniscr_copy_area() to preserve its content. This
properly restores the unicode screen on alt screen exit rather than
lazily rebuilding it from a lossy reverse glyph translation.
On allocation failure the stale buffer is freed and vc_uni_lines is

When enter_alt_screen() saves vc_uni_lines into vc_saved_uni_lines and
sets vc_uni_lines to NULL, a subsequent console resize via vc_do_resize()
skips reallocating the unicode buffer because vc_uni_lines is NULL.
However, vc_saved_uni_lines still points to the old buffer allocated for
the original dimensions.
When leave_alt_screen() later restores vc_saved_uni_lines, the buffer
dimensions no longer match vc_rows/vc_cols. Any operation that iterates
over the unicode buffer using the current dimensions (e.g. csi_J clearing
the screen) will access memory out of bounds, causing a kernel oops:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0x0000002000000020

80x25 but accessed with 240x67 dimensions.

restoring it. The unicode screen will be lazily rebuilt via

DW UART cannot write to LCR, DLL, and DLH while BUSY is asserted.
Existance of BUSY depends on uart_16550_compatible, if UART HW is
configured with it those registers can always be written.
There currently is dw8250_force_idle() which attempts to achieve
non-BUSY state by disabling FIFO, however, the solution is unreliable
when Rx keeps getting more and more characters.
Create a sequence of operations that ensures UART cannot keep BUSY
asserted indefinitely. The new sequence relies on enabling loopback mode
temporarily to prevent incoming Rx characters keeping UART BUSY.
Ensure no Tx in ongoing while the UART is switches into the loopback
mode (requires exporting serial8250_fifo_wait_for_lsr_thre() and adding
DMA Tx pause/resume functions).
According to tests performed by Adriana Nicolae <adriana@arista.com>,
simply disabling FIFO or clearing FIFOs only once does not always
ensure BUSY is deasserted but up to two tries may be needed. This could
be related to ongoing Rx of a character (a guess, not known for sure).
Therefore, retry FIFO clearing a few times (retry limit 4 is arbitrary
number but using, e.g., p->fifosize seems overly large). Tests
performed by others did not exhibit similar challenge but it does not
seem harmful to leave the FIFO clearing loop in place for all DW UARTs
with BUSY functionality.
Use the new dw8250_idle_enter/exit() to do divisor writes and LCR
writes. In case of plain LCR writes, opportunistically try to update
LCR first and only invoke dw8250_idle_enter() if the write did not
succeed (it has been observed that in practice most LCR writes do
succeed without complications).
This issue was first reported by qianfan Zhao who put lots of debugging
effort into understanding the solution space.

When DW UART is !uart_16550_compatible, it can indicate BUSY at any
point (when under constant Rx pressure) unless a complex sequence of
steps is performed. Any LCR write can run a foul with the condition
that prevents writing LCR while the UART is BUSY, which triggers
BUSY_DETECT interrupt that seems unmaskable using IER bits.
Normal flow is that dw8250_handle_irq() handles BUSY_DETECT condition
by reading USR register. This BUSY feature, however, breaks the
assumptions made in serial8250_do_shutdown(), which runs
synchronize_irq() after clearing IER and assumes no interrupts can
occur after that point but then proceeds to update LCR, which on DW
UART can trigger an interrupt.
If serial8250_do_shutdown() releases the interrupt handler before the
handler has run and processed the BUSY_DETECT condition by read the USR
register, the IRQ is not deasserted resulting in interrupt storm that
triggers "irq x: nobody cared" warning leading to disabling the IRQ.
Add late synchronize_irq() into serial8250_do_shutdown() to ensure
BUSY_DETECT from DW UART is handled before port's interrupt handler is
released. Alternative would be to add DW UART specific shutdown
function but it would mostly duplicate the generic code and the extra
synchronize_irq() seems pretty harmless in serial8250_do_shutdown().

INTC10EE UART can end up into an interrupt storm where it reports
IIR_NO_INT (0x1). If the storm happens during active UART operation, it
is promptly stopped by IIR value change due to Rx or Tx events.
However, when there is no activity, either due to idle serial line or
due to specific circumstances such as during shutdown that writes
IER=0, there is nothing to stop the storm.
During shutdown the storm is particularly problematic because
serial8250_do_shutdown() calls synchronize_irq() that will hang in
waiting for the storm to finish which never happens.
This problem can also result in triggering a warning:
irq 45: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
[...snip...]
handlers:
serial8250_interrupt
Disabling IRQ #45
Normal means to reset interrupt status by reading LSR, MSR, USR, or RX
register do not result in the UART deasserting the IRQ.
Add a quirk to INTC10EE UARTs to enable Tx interrupts if UART's Tx is
currently empty and inactive. Rework IIR_NO_INT to keep track of the
number of consecutive IIR_NO_INT, and on fourth one perform the quirk.
Enabling Tx interrupts should change IIR value from IIR_NO_INT to
IIR_THRI which has been observed to stop the storm.

dw8250_handle_irq() takes port's lock multiple times with no good
reason to release it in between and calls serial8250_handle_irq()
that also takes port's lock.
Take port's lock only once in dw8250_handle_irq() and use
serial8250_handle_irq_locked() to avoid releasing port's lock in
between.
As IIR_NO_INT check in serial8250_handle_irq() was outside of port's
lock, it has to be done already in dw8250_handle_irq().
DW UART can, in addition to IIR_NO_INT, report BUSY_DETECT (0x7) which
collided with the IIR_NO_INT (0x1) check in serial8250_handle_irq()
(because & is used instead of ==) meaning that no other work is done by
serial8250_handle_irq() during an BUSY_DETECT interrupt.
This allows reorganizing code in dw8250_handle_irq() to do both
IIR_NO_INT and BUSY_DETECT handling right at the start simplifying
the logic.

8250_port exports serial8250_handle_irq() to HW specific 8250 drivers.
It takes port's lock within but a HW specific 8250 driver may want to
take port's lock itself, do something, and then call the generic
handler in 8250_port but to do that, the caller has to release port's
lock for no good reason.
Introduce serial8250_handle_irq_locked() which a HW specific driver can
call while already holding port's lock.
As this is new export, put it straight into a namespace (where all 8250

When DW UART is configured with BUSY flag, LCR writes may not always
succeed which can make any LCR write complex and very expensive.
Performing write directly can trigger IRQ and the driver has to perform
complex and distruptive sequence while retrying the write.
Therefore, it's better to avoid doing LCR write that would not change
the value of the LCR register. Add LCR write avoidance code into the
8250_dw driver's .serial_out() functions.

The 8250_dw driver needs to potentially perform very complex operations
during LCR writes because its BUSY handling prevents updates to LCR
while UART is BUSY (which is not fully under our control without those
complex operations). Thus, LCR writes should occur under port's lock.
Move LCR write under port's lock in serial8250_do_shutdown(). Also
split the LCR RMW so that the logic is on a separate line for clarity.

uart_write_room() and uart_write() behave inconsistently when
xmit_buf is NULL (which happens for PORT_UNKNOWN ports that were
never properly initialized):
- uart_write_room() returns kfifo_avail() which can be > 0
- uart_write() checks xmit_buf and returns 0 if NULL
This inconsistency causes an infinite loop in drivers that rely on
tty_write_room() to determine if they can write:
while (tty_write_room(tty) > 0) {
written = tty->ops->write(...);
// written is always 0, loop never exits
}
For example, caif_serial's handle_tx() enters an infinite loop when
used with PORT_UNKNOWN serial ports, causing system hangs.
Fix by making uart_write_room() also check xmit_buf and return 0 if
it's NULL, consistent with uart_write().

ulite_probe() calls pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() at the end of probe
without holding a corresponding PM runtime reference for non-console
ports.
During ulite_assign(), uart_add_one_port() triggers uart_configure_port()
which calls ulite_pm() via uart_change_pm(). For non-console ports, the
UART core performs a balanced get/put cycle:
uart_change_pm(ON) -> ulite_pm() -> pm_runtime_get_sync() +1
uart_change_pm(OFF) -> ulite_pm() -> pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() -1
This leaves no spare reference for the pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() at
the end of probe. The PM runtime core prevents the count from actually
going below zero, and instead triggers a
"Runtime PM usage count underflow!" warning.
For console ports the bug is masked: the UART core skips the
uart_change_pm(OFF) call, so the UART core's unbalanced get happens to
pair with probe's trailing put.
Add pm_runtime_get_noresume() before pm_runtime_enable() to take an
explicit probe-owned reference that the trailing
pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() can release. This ensures a correct usage
count regardless of whether the port is a console.

test and race with its IIR reads. This can produce wrong THRE test
results and cause spurious registration of the
serial8250_backup_timeout timer. Unconditionally disable the IRQ for
the short duration of the test and re-enable it afterwards to avoid
the race.

`dmaengine_terminate_async` does not guarantee that the
`__dma_tx_complete` callback will run. The callback is currently the
only place where `dma->tx_running` gets cleared. If the transaction is
canceled and the callback never runs, then `dma->tx_running` will never
get cleared and we will never schedule new TX DMA transactions again.
This change makes it so we clear `dma->tx_running` after we terminate
the DMA transaction. This is "safe" because `serial8250_tx_dma_flush`
is holding the UART port lock. The first thing the callback does is also
grab the UART port lock, so access to `dma->tx_running` is serialized.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.
As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

do_con_write(), fbcon_redraw.*() invoke console_conditional_schedule()
which is a conditional scheduling point based on printk's internal
variables console_may_schedule. It may only be used if the console lock
is acquired for instance via console_lock() or console_trylock().
Prinkt sets the internal variable to 1 (and allows to schedule)
if the console lock has been acquired via console_lock(). The trylock
does not allow it.
The console_conditional_schedule() invocation in do_con_write() is
invoked shortly before console_unlock().
The console_conditional_schedule() invocation in fbcon_redraw.*()
original from fbcon_scroll() / vt's con_scroll() which originate from a
line feed.
In console_unlock() the variable is set to 0 (forbids to schedule) and
it tries to schedule while making progress printing. This is brand new
compared to when console_conditional_schedule() was added in v2.4.9.11.
In v2.6.38-rc3, console_unlock() (started its existence) iterated over
all consoles and flushed them with disabled interrupts. A scheduling
attempt here was not possible, it relied that a long print scheduled
before console_unlock().
Since commit 8d91f8b15361d ("printk: do cond_resched() between lines
while outputting to consoles"), which appeared in v4.5-rc1,
console_unlock() attempts to schedule if it was allowed to schedule
while during console_lock(). Each record is idealy one line so after
every line feed.
This console_conditional_schedule() is also only relevant on
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY builds. In other configurations
cond_resched() becomes a nop and has no impact.
I'm bringing this all up just proof that it is not required anymore. It
becomes a problem on a PREEMPT_RT build with debug code enabled because
that might_sleep() in cond_resched() remains and triggers a warnings.
This is due to
legacy_kthread_func-> console_flush_one_record -> vt_console_print-> lf
-> con_scroll -> fbcon_scroll
and vt_console_print() acquires a spinlock_t which does not allow a
voluntary schedule. There is no need to fb_scroll() to schedule since
console_flush_one_record() attempts to schedule after each line.
!PREEMPT_RT is not affected because the legacy printing thread is only
enabled on PREEMPT_RT builds.
Therefore I suggest to remove console_conditional_schedule().

On the embedded platform, certain critical data, such as IMU data, is
transmitted through UART. The tty_flip_buffer_push() interface in the TTY
layer uses system_dfl_wq to handle the flipping of the TTY buffer.
Although the unbound workqueue can create new threads on demand and wake
up the kworker thread on an idle CPU, it may be preempted by real-time
tasks or other high-prio tasks.
flush_to_ldisc() needs to wake up the relevant data handle thread. When
executing __wake_up_common_lock(), it calls spin_lock_irqsave(), which
does not disable preemption but disables migration in RT-Linux. This
prevents the kworker thread from being migrated to other cores by CPU's
balancing logic, resulting in long delays. The call trace is as follows:
__wake_up_common_lock
__wake_up
ep_poll_callback
__wake_up_common
__wake_up_common_lock
__wake_up
n_tty_receive_buf_common
n_tty_receive_buf2
tty_ldisc_receive_buf
tty_port_default_receive_buf
flush_to_ldisc
In our system, the processing interval for each frame of IMU data
transmitted via UART can experience significant jitter due to this issue.
Instead of the expected 10 to 15 ms frame processing interval, we see
spikes up to 30 to 35 ms. Moreover, in just one or two hours, there can
be 2 to 3 occurrences of such high jitter, which is quite frequent. This
jitter exceeds the software's tolerable limit of 20 ms.
Introduce flip_wq in tty_port which can be set by tty_port_link_wq() or as
default linked to default workqueue allocated when tty_register_driver().
The default workqueue is allocated with flag WQ_SYSFS, so that cpumask and
nice can be set dynamically. The execution timing of tty_port_link_wq() is
not clearly restricted. The newly added function tty_port_link_driver_wq()
checks whether the flip_wq of the tty_port has already been assigned when
linking the default tty_driver's workqueue to the port. After the user has
set a custom workqueue for a certain tty_port using tty_port_link_wq(), the
system will only use this custom workqueue, even if tty_driver does not
have %TTY_DRIVER_CUSTOM_WORKQUEUE flag.
Introduce %TTY_DRIVER_CUSTOM_WORKQUEUE flag meaning not to create the
default single tty_driver workqueue. Two reasons why need to introduce the
%TTY_DRIVER_CUSTOM_WORKQUEUE flag:
1. If the WQ_SYSFS parameter is enabled, workqueue_sysfs_register() will
fail when trying to create a workqueue with the same name. The pty is an
example of this; if both CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS and CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are
enabled, the call to tty_register_driver() in unix98_pty_init() will fail.
2. Different tty ports may be used for different tasks, which may require
separate core binding control via workqueues. In this case, the workqueue
created by default in the tty driver is unnecessary. Enabling this flag
prevents the creation of this redundant workqueue.
After applying this patch, we can set the related UART TTY flip buffer
workqueue by sysfs. We set the cpumask to CPU cores associated with the
IMU tasks, and set the nice to -20. Testing has shown significant
improvement in the previously described issue, with almost no stuttering
occurring anymore.

As comments mentioned this is old (and actually deprecated) interface
to set custom baud rates. This interface has limitations as it only
allows to set a single opaque value called "custom_divisor". If the HW
needs more complex settings (like fractional divisor) it must somehow
encode this. This is horrid interface that is very driver specific
and not flexible. Meanwhile Linux has established way to set free
baud rate settings via BOTHER [1]. With all this being said, remove
deprecated interface for good.
