2018-12-17serial: 8250: Rate limit serial port rx interrupts during input overrunsDarwin Dingel1-0/+4
When a serial port gets faulty or gets flooded with inputs, its interrupt handler starts to work double time to get the characters to the workqueue for the tty layer to handle them. When this busy time on the serial/tty subsystem happens during boot, where it is also busy on the userspace trying to initialise, some processes can continuously get preempted and will be on hold until the interrupts subside. The fix is to backoff on processing received characters for a specified amount of time when an input overrun is seen (received a new character before the previous one is processed). This only stops receive and will continue to transmit characters to serial port. After the backoff period is done, it receive will be re-enabled. This is optional and will only be enabled by setting 'overrun-throttle-ms' in the dts.

Currently, we export serial8250_rx_chars, which does a whole bunch of reads from the 8250 data register, without any form of flow control between reads. An upcoming change to the aspeed vuart driver implements more fine-grained flow control in the interrupt handler, requiring character-at-a-time control over the rx path. This change exports serial8250_read_char to allow this.

2015-02-02serial: 8250: Use canary to restart console after suspendPeter Hurley1-0/+3
When using no_console_suspend, the serial console may be powered off anyway during system sleep. Upon resume, the port may be in its default power-on state, but is expected to continue console i/o before the device has received its pm callback. The resultant garbage i/o can cause all kinds of havoc on the remote end. Use the scratch register as a canary to discover if the console has been powered-off. Write a non-zero value to the scratch register at port suspend and reprogram the port before any console i/o if the scratch register != canary before port resume. This workaround is disabled for omap_8250 (which uses different divisor programming).

2015-01-10serial: omap_8250: Fix RTS handlingPeter Hurley1-0/+1
The OMAP3 UART ignores MCR[1] (ie., UART_MCR_RTS) when in autoRTS mode (UPF_HARD_FLOW + CRTSCTS). This makes it impossible for either the serial core or userspace to manually flow control the sender. Disable autoRTS mode when RTS is lowered and restore the previous mode when RTS is raised. Note that the OMAP3 UART provides no mechanism for switching from autoRTS mode without corrupting incoming data; to access the necessary register, the line control settings must be set to 8-e-2 and thus any data received during that time will be interpreted with those settings. This corruption has been observed in practice.

The generic implementation of xchg() on arm and x86 works for variables of size one bye (char).

2014-09-26tty: serial: 8250_core: add run time pmSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-0/+1
While comparing the OMAP-serial and the 8250 part of this I noticed that the latter does not use run time-pm. Here are the pieces. It is basically a get before first register access and a last_busy + put after last access. This has to be enabled from userland _and_ UART_CAP_RPM is required for this. The runtime PM can usually work transparently in the background however there is one exception to this: After serial8250_tx_chars() completes there still may be unsent bytes in the FIFO (depending on CPU speed vs baud rate + flow control). Even if the TTY-buffer is empty we do not want RPM to disable the device because it won't send the remaining bytes. Instead we leave serial8250_tx_chars() with RPM enabled and wait for the FIFO empty interrupt. Once we enter serial8250_tx_chars() with an empty buffer we know that the FIFO is empty and since we are not going to send anything, we can disable the device. That xchg() is to ensure that serial8250_tx_chars() can be called multiple times and only the first invocation will actually invoke the runtime PM function. So that the last invocation of __stop_tx() will disable runtime pm. NOTE: do not enable RPM on the device unless you know what you do! If the device goes idle, it won't be woken up by incomming RX data _unless_ there is a wakeup irq configured which is usually the RX pin configure for wakeup via the reset module. The RX activity will then wake up the device from idle. However the first character is garbage and lost. The following bytes will be received once the device is up in time. On the beagle board xm (omap3) it takes approx 13ms from the first wakeup byte until the first byte that is received properly if the device was in core-off. v5…v8: - drop RPM from serial8250_set_mctrl() it will be used in restore path which already has RPM active and holds dev->power.lock v4…v5: - add a wrapper around rpm function and introduce UART_CAP_RPM to ensure RPM put is invoked after the TX FIFO is empty. v3…v4: - added runtime to the console code - removed device_may_wakeup() from serial8250_set_sleep() Cc: mika.westerberg@linux.intel.com Reviewed-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> Tested-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2014-07-18serial/uart/8250: Add tunable RX interrupt trigger I/F of FIFO buffersYoshihiro YUNOMAE1-0/+2
Add tunable RX interrupt trigger I/F of FIFO buffers. Serial devices are used as not only message communication devices but control or sending communication devices. For the latter uses, normally small data will be exchanged, so user applications want to receive data unit as soon as possible for real-time tendency. If we have a sensor which sends a 1 byte data each time and must control a device based on the sensor feedback, the RX interrupt should be triggered for each data. According to HW specification of serial UART devices, RX interrupt trigger can be changed, but the trigger is hard-coded. For example, RX interrupt trigger in 16550A can be set to 1, 4, 8, or 14 bytes for HW, but current driver sets the trigger to only 8bytes. This patch makes some devices change RX interrupt trigger from userland. <How to use> - Read current setting # cat /sys/class/tty/ttyS0/rx_trig_bytes 8 - Write user setting # echo 1 > /sys/class/tty/ttyS0/rx_trig_bytes # cat /sys/class/tty/ttyS0/rx_trig_bytes 1 <Support uart devices> - 16550A and Tegra (1, 4, 8, or 14 bytes) - 16650V2 (8, 16, 24, or 28 bytes) - 16654 (8, 16, 56, or 60 bytes) - 16750 (1, 16, 32, or 56 bytes) <Change log> Changes in V9: - Use attr_group instead of dev_spec_attr_group of uart_port structure Changes in V8: - Divide this patch from V7's patch based on Greg's comment Changes in V7: - Add Documentation - Change I/F name from rx_int_trig to rx_trig_bytes because the name rx_int_trig is hard to understand how users specify the value Changes in V6: - Move FCR_RX_TRIG_* definition in 8250.h to include/uapi/linux/serial_reg.h, rename those to UART_FCR_R_TRIG_*, and use UART_FCR_TRIGGER_MASK to UART_FCR_R_TRIG_BITS() - Change following function names: convert_fcr2val() => fcr_get_rxtrig_bytes() convert_val2rxtrig() => bytes_to_fcr_rxtrig() - Fix typo in serial8250_do_set_termios() - Delete the verbose error message pr_info() in bytes_to_fcr_rxtrig() - Rename *rx_int_trig/rx_trig* to *rxtrig* for several functions or variables (but UI remains rx_int_trig) - Change the meaningless variable name 'val' to 'bytes' following functions: fcr_get_rxtrig_bytes(), bytes_to_fcr_rxtrig(), do_set_rxtrig(), do_serial8250_set_rxtrig(), and serial8250_set_attr_rxtrig() - Use up->fcr in order to get rxtrig_bytes instead of rx_trig_raw in fcr_get_rxtrig_bytes() - Use conf_type->rxtrig_bytes[0] instead of switch statement for support check in register_dev_spec_attr_grp() - Delete the checking whether a user changed FCR or not when minimum buffer is needed in serial8250_do_set_termios() Changes in V5.1: - Fix FCR_RX_TRIG_MAX_STATE definition Changes in V5: - Support Tegra, 16650V2, 16654, and 16750 - Store default FCR value to up->fcr when the port is first created - Add rx_trig_byte[] in uart_config[] for each device and use rx_trig_byte[] in convert_fcr2val() and convert_val2rxtrig() Changes in V4: - Introduce fifo_bug flag in uart_8250_port structure This is enabled only when parity is enabled and UART_BUG_PARITY is enabled for up->bugs.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux Pull the MCA deletion branch from Paul Gortmaker: "It was good that we could support MCA machines back in the day, but realistically, nobody is using them anymore. They were mostly limited to 386-sx 16MHz CPU and some 486 class machines and never more than 64MB of RAM. Even the enthusiast hobbyist community seems to have dried up close to ten years ago, based on what you can find searching various websites dedicated to the relatively short lived hardware. So lets remove the support relating to CONFIG_MCA. There is no point carrying this forward, wasting cycles doing routine maintenance on it; wasting allyesconfig build time on validating it, wasting I/O on git grep'ping over it, and so on." Let's see if anybody screams. It generally has compiled, and James Bottomley pointed out that there was a MCA extension from NCR that allowed for up to 4GB of memory and PPro-class machines. So in *theory* there may be users out there. But even James (technically listed as a maintainer) doesn't actually have a system, and while Alan Cox claims to have a machine in his cellar that he offered to anybody who wants to take it off his hands, he didn't argue for keeping MCA support either. So we could bring it back. But somebody had better speak up and talk about how they have actually been using said MCA hardware with modern kernels for us to do that. And David already took the patch to delete all the networking driver code (commit a5e371f61ad3: "drivers/net: delete all code/drivers depending on CONFIG_MCA"). * 'delete-mca' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support. scsi: delete the MCA specific drivers and driver code serial: delete the MCA specific 8250 support. arm: remove ability to select CONFIG_MCA

2012-04-19tegra, serial8250: add ->handle_break() uart_port opDan Williams1-0/+1
The "KT" serial port has another use case for a "received break" quirk, so before adding another special case to the 8250 core take this opportunity to push such quirks out of the core and into a uart_port op. Stephen says: "If the callback function is to no longer live in 8250.c itself, arch/arm/mach-tegra/devices.c isn't logically a good place to put it, and that file will be going away once we get rid of all the board files and move solely to device tree." ...so since 8250_pci.c houses all the quirks for pci serial devices this quirk is similarly housed in of_serial.c. Once the open firmware conversion completes the infrastructure details (include/linux/of_serial.h, and the export) can all be removed to make this self contained to of_serial.c.

2011-12-10serial: add irq handler for Freescale 16550 errata.Paul Gortmaker1-0/+1
Sending a break on the SOC UARTs found in some MPC83xx/85xx/86xx chips seems to cause a short lived IRQ storm (/proc/interrupts typically shows somewhere between 300 and 1500 events). Unfortunately this renders SysRQ over the serial console completely inoperable. The suggested workaround in the errata is to read the Rx register, wait one character period, and then read the Rx register again. We achieve this by tracking the old LSR value, and on the subsequent interrupt event after a break, we don't read LSR, instead we just read the RBR again and return immediately. The "fsl,ns16550" is used in the compatible field of the serial device to mark UARTs known to have this issue. Thanks to Scott Wood for providing the errata data which led to a much cleaner fix.

2011-12-10serial: export the key functions for an 8250 IRQ handlerPaul Gortmaker1-0/+4
For drivers that need to construct their own IRQ handler, the three components are seen in the current handle_port -- i.e. Rx, Tx and modem_status. Make these exported symbols so that "almost" 8250 UARTs can construct their own IRQ handler with these shared components, while working around their own unique errata issues. The function names are given a serial8250 prefix, since they are now entering the global namespace.

2009-01-02Serial: Allow port type to be specified when calling serial8250_register_port.David Daney1-0/+1
Add flag value UPF_FIXED_TYPE which specifies that the UART type is known and should not be probed. For this case the UARTs properties are just copied out of the uart_config entry. This allows us to keep SOC specific 8250 probe code out of 8250.c. In this case we know the serial hardware will not be changing as it is on the same silicon as the CPU, and we can specify it with certainty in the board/cpu setup code. The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific special cases in the probing code.

2007-07-24Use resource_size_t for serial port IO addressesJosh Boyer1-1/+1
At present, various parts of the serial code use unsigned long to define resource addresses. This is a problem, because some 32-bit platforms have physical addresses larger than 32-bits, and have mmio serial uarts located above the 4GB point. This patch changes the type of mapbase in both struct uart_port and struct plat_serial8250_port to resource_size_t, which can be configured to be 64 bits on such platforms. The mapbase in serial_struct can't safely be changed, because that structure is user visible.
