commit 1c9c858e2ff8ae8024a3d75d2ed080063af43754 upstream.

The MKS Instruments SCOM-0800 and SCOM-0801 cards (originally by Tenta
Technologies) are 3U CompactPCI serial cards with 4 and 8 serial ports,
respectively.  The first 4 ports are implemented by an OX16PCI954 chip,
and the second 4 ports are implemented by an OX16C954 chip on a local
bus, bridged by the second PCI function of the OX16PCI954.  The ports
are jumper-selectable as RS-232 and RS-422/485, and the UARTs use a
non-standard oscillator frequency of 20 MHz (base_baud = 1250000).

<title>serial: 8250_pci: Detach low-level driver during PCI error recovery</title>

commit f209fa03fc9d131b3108c2e4936181eabab87416 upstream.

During a PCI error recovery, like the ones provoked by EEH in the ppc64
platform, all IO to the device must be blocked while the recovery is
completed.  Current 8250_pci implementation only suspends the port
instead of detaching it, which doesn't prevent incoming accesses like
TIOCMGET and TIOCMSET calls from reaching the device.  Those end up
racing with the EEH recovery, crashing it.  Similar races were also
observed when opening the device and when shutting it down during
recovery.

This patch implements a more robust IO blockage for the 8250_pci
recovery by unregistering the port at the beginning of the procedure and
re-adding it afterwards.  Since the port is detached from the uart
layer, we can be sure that no request will make through to the device
during recovery.  This is similar to the solution used by the JSM serial
driver.

I thank Peter Hurley &lt;peter@hurleysoftware.com&gt; for valuable input on
this one over one year ago.

commit 0b41ce991052022c030fd868e03877700220b090 upstream.

Some UART HW has a single register combining UART_DLL/UART_DLM
(this was probably forgotten in the change that introduced the
callbacks, commit b32b19b8ffc05cbd3bf91c65e205f6a912ca15d9)

commit 899f0c1c7dbcc487fdc8756a49ff70b1d5d75f89 upstream.

The internal clock of the master chip, which is usually 125MHz, is only half
(62.5MHz) for the slave chips. So we have to adjust the uartclk for all the
slave ports. Therefor we add a new function to determine if a slave chip is
present and update pci_xr17v35x_setup accordingly.

commit 7fd6f640f2dd17dac6ddd6702c378cb0bb9cfa11 upstream.

Trying to write console output from within the serial console driver
while the port-&gt;lock is held causes recursive deadlock:

  CPU 0
spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;port-&gt;lock)
printk()
  console_unlock()
    call_console_drivers()
      serial8250_console_write()
        spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;port-&gt;lock)
** DEADLOCK **

The 8250_dw i/o accessors try to write a console error message if the
LCR workaround was unsuccessful. When the port-&gt;lock is already held
(eg., when called from serial8250_set_termios()), this deadlocks.

Make the error message a FIXME until a general solution is devised.

The Exar XR17V358 can also be combined with a XR17V354 chip to act as a
single 12 port chip. This works the same way as the combining two XR17V358
chips. But the reported device id then is 0x4358.

commit 96a5d18bc1338786fecac73599f1681f59a59a8e upstream.

The Exar XR17V358 chip usually provides only 8 ports. But two chips can be
combined to act as a single 16 port chip. Therefor one chip is configured
as master the second as slave by connecting the mode pin to VCC (master)
or GND (slave).

Then the master chip is reporting a different device-id depending on
whether a slave is detected or not. The UARTs 8-15 are addressed from
0x2000-0x3fff. So the offset of 0x400 from UART to UART can be used to
address all 16 ports as before.

commit feb5814254094c306429fe6d7b9c534fa0250f4c upstream.

This Multi-IO card has one serial 16550-like and one parallel port connector.
Here's the lspci output, after this commit is applied:

03:07.0 Serial controller: Device 4348:5053 (rev 10) (prog-if 02 [16550])
	Subsystem: Device 4348:5053
	Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
	Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium &gt;TAbort- &lt;TAbort- &lt;MAbort- &gt;SERR- &lt;PERR- INTx-
	Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 21
	Region 0: I/O ports at cf00 [size=8]
	Region 1: I/O ports at ce00 [size=8]
	Kernel driver in use: parport_serial
	Kernel modules: 8250_pci, parport_serial

This commit adds an entry with the device ID to the blacklist declared in
8250_pci to prevent the driver from taking ownership. Also, and as was done
for the 2S/1P variant, add a quirk to skip autodetection and set the correct
type to 16550A clone.

Proper entries are added to parport_serial, to support the device parallel
and serial ports.

Here's the lspci output, after this commit is applied:

03:07.0 Serial controller: Device 4348:5053 (rev 10) (prog-if 02 [16550])
	Subsystem: Device 4348:5053
	Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
	Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium &gt;TAbort- &lt;TAbort- &lt;MAbort- &gt;SERR- &lt;PERR- INTx-
	Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 21
	Region 0: I/O ports at cf00 [size=8]
	Region 1: I/O ports at ce00 [size=8]
	Kernel driver in use: parport_serial
	Kernel modules: 8250_pci, parport_serial

This commit adds an entry with the device ID to the blacklist declared in
8250_pci to prevent the driver from taking ownership. Also, and as was done
for the 2S/1P variant, add a quirk to skip autodetection and set the correct
type to 16550A clone.

Proper entries are added to parport_serial, to support the device parallel
and serial ports.
