[ Upstream commit 1fe0e1fa3209ad8e9124147775bd27b1d9f04bd4 ]

Handle optional overrun-throttle-ms property as done for 8250_fsl in commit
6d7f677a2afa ("serial: 8250: Rate limit serial port rx interrupts during
input overruns"). This can be used to rate limit the UART interrupts on
noisy lines that end up producing messages like the following:

ttyS ttyS2: 4 input overrun(s)

At least on droid4, the multiplexed USB and UART port is left to UART mode
by the bootloader for a debug console, and if a USB charger is connected
on boot, we get noise on the UART until the PMIC related drivers for PHY
and charger are loaded.

With this patch and overrun-throttle-ms = &lt;500&gt; we avoid the extra rx
interrupts.

[ Upstream commit 3a96e97ab4e835078e6f27b7e1c0947814df3841 ]

The bar and offset parameters to setup_port() are used in pointer math,
and while it would be very difficult to get them to wrap as a negative
number, just be "safe" and make them unsigned so that static checkers do
not trip over them unintentionally.

[ Upstream commit d7aff291d069c4418285f3c8ee27b0ff67ce5998 ]

Oxford Semiconductor 950 serial port devices have a 128-byte FIFO and in
the enhanced (650) mode, which we select in `autoconfig_has_efr' with
the ECB bit set in the EFR register, they support the receive interrupt
trigger level selectable with FCR bits 7:6 from the set of 16, 32, 112,
120.  This applies to the original OX16C950 discrete UART[1] as well as
950 cores embedded into more complex devices.

For these devices we set the default to 112, which sets an excessively
high level of 112 or 7/8 of the FIFO capacity, unlike with other port
types where we choose at most 1/2 of their respective FIFO capacities.
Additionally we don't make the trigger level configurable.  Consequently
frequent input overruns happen with high bit rates where hardware flow
control cannot be used (e.g. terminal applications) even with otherwise
highly-performant systems.

Lower the default receive interrupt trigger level to 32 then, and make
it configurable.  Document the trigger levels along with other port
types, including the set of 16, 32, 64, 112 for the transmit interrupt
as well[2].

<title>serial: 8250_pci: Avoid irq sharing for MSI(-X) interrupts.</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 341abd693d10e5f337a51f140ae3e7a1ae0febf6 upstream.

This attempts to fix a bug found with a serial port card which uses
an MCS9922 chip, one of the 4 models for which MSI-X interrupts are
currently supported. I don't possess such a card, and i'm not
experienced with the serial subsystem, so this patch is based on what
i think i found as a likely reason for failure, based on walking the
user who actually owns the card through some diagnostic.

The user who reported the problem finds the following in his dmesg
output for the relevant ttyS4 and ttyS5:

[    0.580425] serial 0000:02:00.0: enabling device (0000 -&gt; 0003)
[    0.601448] 0000:02:00.0: ttyS4 at I/O 0x3010 (irq = 125, base_baud = 115200) is a ST16650V2
[    0.603089] serial 0000:02:00.1: enabling device (0000 -&gt; 0003)
[    0.624119] 0000:02:00.1: ttyS5 at I/O 0x3000 (irq = 126, base_baud = 115200) is a ST16650V2
...
[    6.323784] genirq: Flags mismatch irq 128. 00000080 (ttyS5) vs. 00000000 (xhci_hcd)
[    6.324128] genirq: Flags mismatch irq 128. 00000080 (ttyS5) vs. 00000000 (xhci_hcd)
...

Output of setserial -a:

/dev/ttyS4, Line 4, UART: 16650V2, Port: 0x3010, IRQ: 127
	Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
	closing_wait: 3000
	Flags: spd_normal skip_test

This suggests to me that the serial driver wants to register and share a
MSI/MSI-X irq 128 with the xhci_hcd driver, whereas the xhci driver does
not want to share the irq, as flags 0x00000080 (== IRQF_SHARED) from the
serial port driver means to share the irq, and this mismatch ends in some
failed irq init?

With this setup, data reception works very unreliable, with dropped data,
already at a transmission rate of only a 16 Bytes chunk every 1/120th of
a second, ie. 1920 Bytes/sec, presumably due to rx fifo overflow due to
mishandled or not used at all rx irq's?

See full discussion thread with attempted diagnosis at:

https://psychtoolbox.discourse.group/t/issues-with-iscan-serial-port-recording/3886

Disabling the use of MSI interrupts for the serial port pci card did
fix the reliability problems. The user executed the following sequence
of commands to achieve this:

echo 0000:02:00.0 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/serial/unbind
echo 0000:02:00.1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/serial/unbind

echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/msi_bus
echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.1/msi_bus

echo 0000:02:00.0 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/serial/bind
echo 0000:02:00.1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/serial/bind

This resulted in the following log output:

[   82.179021] pci 0000:02:00.0: MSI/MSI-X disallowed for future drivers
[   87.003031] pci 0000:02:00.1: MSI/MSI-X disallowed for future drivers
[   98.537010] 0000:02:00.0: ttyS4 at I/O 0x3010 (irq = 17, base_baud = 115200) is a ST16650V2
[  103.648124] 0000:02:00.1: ttyS5 at I/O 0x3000 (irq = 18, base_baud = 115200) is a ST16650V2

This patch attempts to fix the problem by disabling irq sharing when
using MSI irq's. Note that all i know for sure is that disabling MSI
irq's fixed the problem for the user, so this patch could be wrong and
is untested. Please review with caution, keeping this in mind.

commit 853a9ae29e978d37f5dfa72622a68c9ae3d7fa89 upstream.

The 8250 handle_irq callback is not just called from the interrupt
handler but also from a timer callback when polling (e.g. for ports
without an interrupt line). Consequently the callback must explicitly
disable interrupts to avoid a potential deadlock with another interrupt
in polled mode.

Add back an irqrestore-version of the sysrq port-unlock helper and use
it in the 8250 callbacks that need it.

<title>serial: 8250: Mask out floating 16/32-bit bus bits</title>

commit e5227c51090e165db4b48dcaa300605bfced7014 upstream.

Make sure only actual 8 bits of the IIR register are used in determining
the port type in `autoconfig'.

The `serial_in' port accessor returns the `unsigned int' type, meaning
that with UPIO_AU, UPIO_MEM16, UPIO_MEM32, and UPIO_MEM32BE access types
more than 8 bits of data are returned, of which the high order bits will
often come from bus lines that are left floating in the data phase.  For
example with the MIPS Malta board's CBUS UART, where the registers are
aligned on 8-byte boundaries and which uses 32-bit accesses, data as
follows is returned:

YAMON&gt; dump -32 0xbf000900 0x40

BF000900: 1F000942 1F000942 1F000900 1F000900  ...B...B........
BF000910: 1F000901 1F000901 1F000900 1F000900  ................
BF000920: 1F000900 1F000900 1F000960 1F000960  ...........`...`
BF000930: 1F000900 1F000900 1F0009FF 1F0009FF  ................

YAMON&gt;

Evidently high-order 24 bits return values previously driven in the
address phase (the 3 highest order address bits used with the command
above are masked out in the simple virtual address mapping used here and
come out at zeros on the external bus), a common scenario with bus lines
left floating, due to bus capacitance.

Consequently when the value of IIR, mapped at 0x1f000910, is retrieved
in `autoconfig', it comes out at 0x1f0009c1 and when it is right-shifted
by 6 and then assigned to 8-bit `scratch' variable, the value calculated
is 0x27, not one of 0, 1, 2, 3 expected in port type determination.

Fix the issue then, by assigning the value returned from `serial_in' to
`scratch' first, which masks out 24 high-order bits retrieved, and only
then right-shift the resulting 8-bit data quantity, producing the value
of 3 in this case, as expected.  Fix the same issue in `serial_dl_read'.

The problem first appeared with Linux 2.6.9-rc3 which predates our repo
history, but the origin could be identified with the old MIPS/Linux repo
also at: &lt;git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux.git&gt;
as commit e0d2356c0777 ("Merge with Linux 2.6.9-rc3."), where code in
`serial_in' was updated with this case:

+	case UPIO_MEM32:
+		return readl(up-&gt;port.membase + offset);
+

which made it produce results outside the unsigned 8-bit range for the
first time, though obviously it is system dependent what actual values
appear in the high order bits retrieved and it may well have been zeros
in the relevant positions with the system the change originally was
intended for.  It is at that point that code in `autoconf' should have
been updated accordingly, but clearly it was overlooked.

commit 7c4a509d3815a260c423c0633bd73695250ac26d upstream.

Fix uart corruption issue when rx power off.
Add spin lock in mtk8250_dma_rx_complete function in APDMA mode.

when uart is used as a communication port with external device(GPS).
when external device(GPS) power off, the power of rx pin is also from
1.8v to 0v. Even if there is not any data in rx. But uart rx pin can
capture the data "0".
If uart don't receive any data in specified cycle, uart will generates
BI(Break interrupt) interrupt.
If external device(GPS) power off, we found that BI interrupt appeared
continuously and very frequently.
When uart interrupt type is BI, uart IRQ handler(8250 framwork
API:serial8250_handle_irq) will push data to tty buffer.
mtk8250_dma_rx_complete is a task of mtk_uart_apdma_rx_handler.
mtk8250_dma_rx_complete priority is lower than uart irq
handler(serial8250_handle_irq).
if we are in process of mtk8250_dma_rx_complete, uart appear BI
interrupt:1)serial8250_handle_irq will priority execution.2)it may cause
write tty buffer conflict in mtk8250_dma_rx_complete.
So the spin lock protect the rx receive data process is not break.

[ Upstream commit f5b08386dee439c7a9e60ce0a4a4a705f3a60dff ]

Our SoC's have always had a NS16650A UART core and older SoC's would
have a compatible string of: 'compatible = ""ns16550a"' and use the
8250_of driver. Our newer SoC's have added enhancements to the base
core to add support for DMA and accurate high speed baud rates and use
this newer 8250_bcm7271 driver. The Device Tree node for our enhanced
UARTs has a compatible string of: 'compatible = "brcm,bcm7271-uart",
"ns16550a"''. With both drivers running and the link order setup so
that the 8250_bcm7217 driver is initialized before the 8250_of driver,
we should bind the 8250_bcm7271 driver to the enhanced UART, or for
upstream kernels that don't have the 8250_bcm7271 driver, we bind to
the 8250_of driver.

The problem is that when both the 8250_of and 8250_bcm7271 drivers
were running, occasionally the 8250_of driver would be bound to the
enhanced UART instead of the 8250_bcm7271 driver. This was happening
because we use SCMI based clocks which come up late in initialization
and cause probe DEFER's when the two drivers get their clocks.

Occasionally the SCMI clock would become ready between the 8250_bcm7271
probe and the 8250_of probe and the 8250_of driver would be bound. To
fix this we decided to config only our 8250_bcm7271 driver and added
"ns16665a0" to the compatible string so the driver would work on our
older system.

This commit has of_platform_serial_probe() check specifically for the
"brcm,bcm7271-uart" and whether its companion driver is enabled. If it
is the case, and the clock provider is not ready, we want to make sure
that when the 8250_bcm7271.c driver returns EPROBE_DEFER, we are not
getting the UART registered via 8250_of.c.
