8250 uart driver currently supports only software assisted hw flow
control. The software assisted hw flow control maintains a hw_stopped
flag in the tty structure to stop and start transmission and use modem
status interrupt for the event to drive the handshake signals. This is
not needed if hw has flow control capabilities. This patch adds a
DT attribute for enabling hw flow control for a uart port. Also skip
stop and start if this flag is present in flag field of the port
structure.

In (efe2f29 kgdboc,kdb: Allow kdb to work on a non open console port)
support was added to directly use the "write_char" functions when
doing kdb over a non-open console port. This is great, but it ends up
bypassing the normal code in uart_console_write() that adds a carriage
return before any newlines.
There appears to have been a trend to add this support directly in
some console driver's poll_put_char() functions. This had a few side
effects, including:
- In this case we were doing LFCR, not CRLF. This was fixed in
uart_console_write() back in (d358788 [SERIAL] kernel console should
send CRLF not LFCR)
- Not all serial drivers had the LFCR code in their poll_put_char()
functions. In my case I was running serial/samsung.c which lacked
it.
I've moved the handling to uart_poll_put_char() to fix the above
problems. Now when I use kdb (and don't point console= to the same
UART) I no longer get:
[0]kdb>
[0]kdb>

While porting a RS485 driver from 2.6.29 to 3.14, i noticed that the serial tty
driver could break it by using uart ports that it does not own :
1. uart_change_pm ist called during uart_open and calls the uart pm function
without checking for PORT_UNKNOWN.
The fix is to move uart_change_pm from uart_open to uart_port_startup.
2. The return code from the uart request_port call in uart_set_info is not
handled properly, leading to the situation that the serial driver also
thinks it owns the uart ports.
This can triggered by doing following actions :
setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none # release the uart ports
modprobe lirc-serial # or any other device that uses the uart
setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart 16550 # gives no error and the uart tty driver
# can use the ports as well

When a serial port is closed, uart_close() takes care of shutting down the
hardware, and powering it down.
When a serial port is unbound while in use, uart_close() bypasses all of
this, as this is supposed to be done through uart_hangup() (invoked via
tty_vhangup() in uart_remove_one_port()).
However, uart_hangup() does not set the hardware's power state, leaving it
powered up. This may also lead to unbounded nesting counts in clock and
power management, depending on their internal implementation.
Make sure to power down the port in uart_hangup(), except when the port is
used as a serial console.
For serial consoles, this operation must be postponed until after the port
becomes completely unused. This case is not fixed yet, as it depends on a
(future) fix for the tty->count vs. port->count imbalance on failed
uart_open().
After this, the module clock used by the sh-sci driver is disabled on
unbind while the serial port is in use.

When unbinding a serial driver that's being used as a serial console,
the kernel may crash with a NULL pointer dereference in a uart_*() function
called from uart_close () (e.g. uart_flush_buffer() or
uart_chars_in_buffer()).
To fix this, let uart_close() check for port->count == 0. If this is the
case, bail out early. Else tty_port_close_start() will make the port
counts inconsistent, printing out warnings like
tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 0.
and
tty_port_close_start: count = -1
and once uport == NULL, it will also crash.
Also fix the related crash in pr_debug() by checking for a non-NULL uport
first.
Detailed description:
On driver unbind, uart_remove_one_port() is called. Basically it;
- marks the port dead,
- calls tty_vhangup(),
- sets state->uart_port = NULL.
What will happen depends on whether the port is just in use by e.g. getty,
or was also opened as a console.
A. If the tty was not opened as a console:
- tty_vhangup() will (in __tty_hangup()):
- mark all file descriptors for this tty hung up by pointing them to
hung_up_tty_fops,
- call uart_hangup(), which sets port->count to 0.
- A subsequent uart_open() (this may be through /dev/ttyS*, or through
/dev/console if this is a serial console) will fail with -ENXIO as the
port was marked dead,
- uart_close() after the failed uart_open() will return early, as
tty_hung_up_p() (called from tty_port_close_start()) will notice it was
hung up.
B. If the tty was also opened as a console:
- tty_vhangup() will (in __tty_hangup()):
- mark non-console file descriptors for this tty hung up by pointing
them to hung_up_tty_fops,
- NOT call uart_hangup(), but instead call uart_close() for every
non-console file descriptor, so port->count will still have a
non-zero value afterwards.
- A subsequent uart_open() will fail with -ENXIO as the port was
marked dead,
- uart_close() after the failed uart_open() starts to misbehave:
- tty_hung_up_p() will not notice it was hung up,
- As port->count is non-zero, tty_port_close_start() will decrease
port->count, making the tty and port counts inconsistent. Later,
warnings like these will be printed:
tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 0.
and
tty_port_close_start: count = -1
- If all of this happens after state->uart_port was set to zero, a
NULL pointer dereference will happen.

is already running on ttyS0. If the spinlock is re-initialized

is a deadlock.

The serial core uses device_find_child() but does not drop the reference to

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:

The PPS (Pulse-Per-Second) line discipline has developed a number of
unhealthy attachments to core tty data and functions, ultimately leading
to its breakage.
The previous patches fixed the crashing. This one reduces coupling further
by eliminating the timestamp parameter from the dcd_change ldisc method.
This reduces header file linkage and makes the extension more generic,
and the timestamp read is delayed only slightly, from just before the
ldisc->ops->dcd_change method call to just after.

"This series is a major reworking of the OMAP serial driver code fixing
various bugs in the hardware-assisted flow control, extending up into
serial_core for a couple of issues. These fixes have been done as a
set of progressive changes and transformations in the hope that no new

The problems are many-fold, from the driver not being informed about
updated settings, to the driver not knowing what the intentions of the
upper layers are.
The first four patches tackle the serial_core layer, allowing it to
provide the necessary information to drivers, and the remaining
patches allow the OMAP serial driver to take advantage of this.
This brings hardware assisted RTS/CTS and XON/OFF flow control into a

assumption.
To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with

It was noticed that polling drivers (like KGDB) are not able to use
serial ports if the ports were not previously initialized via console.
I.e. when booting with console=ttyAMA0 kgdboc=ttyAMA0, everything works
fine, but with console=ttyFOO kgdboc=ttyAMA0, the kgdboc doesn't work.
This is because we don't initialize the hardware. Calling ->startup() is
not an option, because drivers request interrupts there, and drivers
fail to handle situations when tty isn't opened with interrupts enabled.
So, we have to implement a new callback (actually, tty_ops already have
a similar callback), which does everything needed to initialize just the
hardware.

This will let us sort out a whole pile of tty related races. The
alternative would be to keep points and refcount the termios objects.
However
1. They are tiny anyway
2. Many devices don't use the stored copies
3. We can remove a pty special case

Currently, serial drivers don't report buffer overruns. When a buffer overrun
occurs, tty_insert_flip_char returns 0, and no attempt is made to insert that
same character again (i.e. it is lost). This patch reports buffer overruns via
the buf_overrun field in the port's icount structure.

This reverts commit 642180871b.
Buffer overruns are for hardware reported overruns, not software ones,
which will only happen if we run out of memory and you will get lots of
-ENOMEM errors at the same time.
Thanks to Alan Cox for catching this.

This is legitimate but because we don't clear the drv->state pointer in the
unregister code causes a bogus BUG().
