pch_uart: fix a deadlock when pch_uart as console

2013-07-27T04:34:33+00:00

commit 384e301e3519599b000c1a2ecd938b533fc15d85 upstream.

When we use pch_uart as system console like 'console=ttyPCH0,115200',
then 'send break' to it. We'll encounter the deadlock on a cpu/core,
with interrupts disabled on the core. When we happen to have all irqs
affinity to cpu0 then the deadlock on cpu0 actually deadlock whole
system.

In pch_uart_interrupt, we have spin_lock_irqsave(&priv->lock, flags)
then call pch_uart_err_ir when break is received. Then the call to
dev_err would actually call to pch_console_write then we'll run into
another spin_lock(&priv->lock), with interrupts disabled.

So in the call sequence lead by pch_uart_interrupt, we should be
carefully to call functions that will 'print message to console' only
in case the uart port is not being used as serial console.

Revert "serial: 8250_pci: add support for another kind of NetMos Technology PCI 9835 Multi-I/O Controller"

2013-07-27T04:34:24+00:00

commit 828c6a102b1f2b8583fadc0e779c46b31d448f0b upstream.

This reverts commit 8d2f8cd424ca0b99001f3ff4f5db87c4e525f366.

As reported by Stefan, this device already works with the parport_serial
driver, so the 8250_pci driver should not also try to grab it as well.

serial_core.c: add put_device() after device_find_child()

2013-05-13T14:02:18+00:00

commit 5a65dcc04cda41f4122aacc37a5a348454645399 upstream.

The serial core uses device_find_child() but does not drop the reference to
the retrieved child after using it. This patch add the missing put_device().

What I have done to test this issue.

I used a machine with an AMBA PL011 serial driver. I tested the patch on
next-20120408 because the last branch [next-20120415] does not boot on this
board.

For test purpose, I added some pr_info() messages to print the refcount
after device_find_child() (lines: 1937,2009), and after put_device()
(lines: 1947, 2021).

Boot the machine *without* put_device(). Then:

echo reboot > /sys/power/disk
echo disk > /sys/power/state
[   87.058575] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[   87.058582] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 4

[   87.098088] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 5

[  103.055574] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 6

[  252.499611] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 9
[  252.499616] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 9

The refcount continuously increased.

Boot the machine *with* this patch. Then:

echo reboot > /sys/power/disk
echo disk > /sys/power/state
[  159.333559] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[  159.333566] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 3

[  185.713621] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 3
[  185.752935] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 4
[  185.752940] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 3

echo disk > /sys/power/state
[  207.458584] uart_suspend_port:1937 refcount 4
[  207.458591] uart_suspend_port:1947 refcount 3
[  207.498598] uart_resume_port:2009 refcount 4
[  207.498605] uart_resume_port:2021 refcount 3

The refcount correctly handled.

commit 827aa0d36d486f359808c8fb931cf7a71011a09d upstream.

This could have been either ARCH_S5P64X0 or CPU_S5P6450. Looking at
commit 2555e663b367b8d555e76023f4de3f6338c28d6c ("ARM: S5P64X0: Add UART
serial support for S5P6450") - which added this typo - makes clear this
should be CPU_S5P6450.

Fix 4 port and add support for 8 port 'Unknown' PCI serial port cards

2013-03-20T15:03:34+00:00

commit d13402a4a944e72612a9ec5c9190e35717c02a9d upstream.

I've managed to find an 8 port version of the card 4 port card which was discussed here:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-serial&m=120760744205314&w=2

Looking back at that thread there were two issues in the original patch.

1) The I/O ports for the UARTs are within BAR2 not BAR0. This can been seen in the original post.
2) A serial quirk isn't needed as these cards have no memory in BAR0 which makes pci_plx9050_init just return.

This patch fixes the 4 port support to use BAR2, removes the bogus quirk and adds support for the 8 port card.

8250: use correct value for PORT_BRCM_TRUMANAGE

2013-03-06T03:24:25+00:00

When backporting commit ebebd49a8eab ('8250/16?50: Add support for
Broadcom TruManage redirected serial port') I took the next
available port type number for PORT_BRCM_TRUMANAGE (22).

However, the 8250 port type numbers are exposed to userland through
the TIOC{G,S}SERIAL ioctls and so must remain stable.  Redefine
PORT_BRCM_TRUMANAGE as 25, matching mainline as of commit
85f024401bf807.

This leaves port types 22-24 within the valid range for 8250 but not
implemented there.  Change serial8250_verify_port() to specifically
reject these and change serial8250_type() to return "unknown" for them
(though I'm not sure why it would ever see them).
