Tony noticed that the old omap-serial driver picked the uart "number"
based on the hint given from device tree or platform device's id.
The 8250 based omap driver doesn't do this because the core code does
not honour the ->line argument which is passed by the driver.
This patch aims to keep the same behaviour as with omap-serial. The
function will first try to use the line suggested ->line argument and
then fallback to the old strategy in case the port is taken.
That means the the third uart will always be ttyS2 even if the previous
two have not been enabled in DT.

The serial8250_do_startup() function unconditionally clears the

there is a byte in the FIFO or not. This works fine on OMAP4+ HW like
AM335x or DRA7.

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()

Use newly-introduced tty->flow_lock to serialize updates to
tty->flow_stopped (via tcflow()) and with concurrent tty flow
control changes from other sources.
Merge the storage for ->stopped and ->flow_stopped, now that both
flags are serialized by ->flow_lock.
The padding bits are necessary to force the compiler to allocate the
type specified; otherwise, gcc will ignore the type specifier and
allocate the minimum number of bytes necessary to store the bitfield.
In turn, this would allow Alpha EV4 and EV5 cpus to corrupt adjacent
byte storage because those cpus use RMW to store byte and short data.
gcc versions < 4.7.2 will also corrupt storage adjacent to bitfields
smaller than unsigned long on ia64, ppc64, hppa64 and sparc64, thus
requiring more than unsigned int storage (which would otherwise be
sufficient to workaround the Alpha non-atomic byte/short storage problem).

When a master pty is set to packet mode, flow control changes to
the slave pty cause notifications to the master pty via reads and

just ptys.
Implement flow control packet mode notifications in the pty driver.

Without serialization, the flow control state can become inverted
wrt. the actual hardware state. For example,
CPU 0 | CPU 1
stop_tty() |
lock ctrl_lock |
tty->stopped = 1 |
unlock ctrl_lock |
| start_tty()
| lock ctrl_lock
| tty->stopped = 0
| unlock ctrl_lock
| driver->start()
driver->stop() |
In this case, the flow control state now indicates the tty has
been started, but the actual hardware state has actually been stopped.
Introduce tty->flow_lock spinlock to serialize tty flow control changes.

The architectures supported by this driver, arm and sh, have expensive
implementations of writel(), reliant on spin locks and explicit L2 cache
management. These architectures provide a cheaper writel_relaxed() which
is much better suited to peripherals that do not perform DMA. The
situation with readl()/readl_relaxed()is similar although less acute.
This driver does not use DMA and will be more power efficient and more
robust (due to absence of spin locks during console I/O) if it uses the
relaxed variants.
The driver supports COMPILE_TEST and therefore falls back to writel()
when writel_relaxed() does not exist.

non-empty to empty but is cleared again in the interrupt handler. This means
it is not suitable to be used to decided whether the FIFO is currently empty
or not. Instead use the TXEMPTY bit from the status register which will be
set as long as the FIFO is empty.

The x_char on CPU 0 will never be sent.
Take the port->lock in uart_send_xchar() before assigning port->x_char.

The serial core expects the UART driver to transmit x_char
(START/STOP chars) even if tx is stopped and before data already
in the tx ring buffer if possible. Also, sending x_char must
not cause additional data in the tx ring buffer to transmit
if tx is stopped.
Cause x_char to be transmitted before any other data is sent.
Auto-stop tx if the tx ring buffer is empty or tx should be stopped.
Only perform one write wakeup if tx ring buffer space is below
threshold.
x_char handling in DMA mode is still broken; add FIXME.

This reverts commit 06aa82e498.
This commit purports to enable auto CTS flow control for the 8250
UART driver. However, the 8250 UART driver already supports auto
CTS flow control via UART_CAP_AFE and UART_CAP_EFR. Indeed, this
patch introduces another DT attribute for which an existing firmware
flag already exists ("auto-flow-control"). Furthermore, the use of
UPF_HARD_FLOW requires the UART driver to define .throttle and
.unthrottle methods, neither of which are defined for the 8250 UART
driver (which will result in a NULL ptr dereference). Finally, this patch
supposes to fix existing bugs in the serial core for auto CTS-enabled
hardware, but does not include the class of hardware for which these
bugs exist.
