serial: sh-sci: prevent lockup on full TTY buffers

2018-05-31T23:30:19+00:00

commit 7842055bfce4bf0170d0f61df8b2add8399697be upstream.

When the TTY buffers fill up to the configured maximum, a system lockup
occurs:

[  598.820128] INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:
[  598.825796]  0-...!: (1 GPs behind) idle=5a6/2/0 softirq=1974/1974 fqs=1

[  598.851476]  __switch_to+0x98/0xb0
[  598.854870]            (null)

This can be prevented by doing a dummy read of the RX data register.

This issue affects both HSCIF and SCIF ports. Reported for R-Car H3 ES2.0;
reproduced and fixed on H3 ES1.1. Probably affects other R-Car platforms
as well.

serial: 8250_pci: Add Amazon PCI serial device ID

2018-03-03T15:50:40+00:00

commit 3bfd1300abfe3adb18e84a89d97a0e82a22124bb upstream.

This device will be used in future Amazon EC2 instances as the primary
serial port (i.e., data sent to this port will be available via the
GetConsoleOuput [1] EC2 API).

serial: sh-sci: Fix panic when serial console and DMA are enabled

2017-08-26T01:13:57+00:00

commit 3c9101766b502a0163d1d437fada5801cf616be2 upstream.

This patch fixes an issue that kernel panic happens when DMA is enabled
and we press enter key while the kernel booting on the serial console.

* An interrupt may occur after sci_request_irq().
* DMA transfer area is initialized by setup_timer() in sci_request_dma()
  and used in interrupt.

If an interrupt occurred between sci_request_irq() and setup_timer() in
sci_request_dma(), DMA transfer area has not been initialized yet.
So, this patch changes the order of sci_request_irq() and
sci_request_dma().

serial: mxs-auart: Fix baudrate calculation

2017-07-18T17:38:39+00:00

commit a6040bc610554c66088fda3608ae5d6307c548e4 upstream.

The reference manual for the i.MX28 recommends to calculate the divisor
as

	divisor = (UARTCLK * 32) / baud rate, rounded to the nearest integer

, so let's do this. For a typical setup of UARTCLK = 24 MHz and baud
rate = 115200 this changes the divisor from 6666 to 6667 and so the
actual baud rate improves from 115211.521 Bd (error ≅ 0.01 %) to
115194.240 Bd (error ≅ 0.005 %).

serial: mxs-auart: fix baud rate range

2017-07-18T17:38:39+00:00

commit df57cf6a879502cd6e5559c1f2d6db12128e074f upstream.

Currently mxs-auart doesn't care correctly about the baud rate divisor.
According to reference manual the baud rate divisor must be between
0x000000EC and 0x003FFFC0. So calculate the possible baud rate range
and use it for uart_get_baud_rate().

serial: 8250_pci: Add MKS Tenta SCOM-0800 and SCOM-0801 cards

2017-06-05T20:13:47+00:00

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).

tty: serial: msm: Fix module autoload

2017-06-05T20:13:41+00:00

commit abe81f3b8ed2996e1712d26d38ff6b73f582c616 upstream.

If the driver is built as a module, autoload won't work because the module
alias information is not filled. So user-space can't match the registered
device with the corresponding module.

Export the module alias information using the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro.

Before this patch:

$ modinfo drivers/tty/serial/msm_serial.ko | grep alias
$

After this patch:

$ modinfo drivers/tty/serial/msm_serial.ko | grep alias
alias:          of:N*T*Cqcom,msm-uartdmC*

serial: samsung: Fix possible out of bounds access on non-DT platform

2016-11-20T01:01:23+00:00

commit 926b7b5122c96e1f18cd20e85a286c7ec8d18c97 upstream.

On non-DeviceTree platforms, the index of serial device is a static
variable incremented on each probe.  It is incremented even if deferred
probe happens when getting the clock in s3c24xx_serial_init_port().

This index is used for referencing elements of statically allocated
s3c24xx_serial_ports array.  In case of re-probe, the index will point
outside of this array leading to memory corruption.

Increment the index only on successful probe.

serial: sh-sci: Remove cpufreq notifier to fix crash/deadlock

2016-04-30T22:05:26+00:00

commit ff1cab374ad98f4b9f408525ca9c08992b4ed784 upstream.

The BSP team noticed that there is spin/mutex lock issue on sh-sci when
CPUFREQ is used.  The issue is that the notifier function may call
mutex_lock() while the spinlock is held, which can lead to a BUG().
This may happen if CPUFREQ is changed while another CPU calls
clk_get_rate().

Taking the spinlock was added to the notifier function in commit
e552de2413edad1a ("sh-sci: add platform device private data"), to
protect the list of serial ports against modification during traversal.
At that time the Common Clock Framework didn't exist yet, and
clk_get_rate() just returned clk->rate without taking a mutex.
Note that since commit d535a2305facf9b4 ("serial: sh-sci: Require a
device per port mapping."), there's no longer a list of serial ports to
traverse, and taking the spinlock became superfluous.

To fix the issue, just remove the cpufreq notifier:
  1. The notifier doesn't work correctly: all it does is update the
     stored clock rate; it does not update the divider in the hardware.
     The divider will only be updated when calling sci_set_termios().
     I believe this was broken back in 2004, when the old
     drivers/char/sh-sci.c driver (where the notifier did update the
     divider) was replaced by drivers/serial/sh-sci.c (where the
     notifier just updated port->uartclk).
     Cfr. full-history-linux commits 6f8deaef2e9675d9 ("[PATCH] sh: port
     sh-sci driver to the new API") and 3f73fe878dc9210a ("[PATCH]
     Remove old sh-sci driver").
  2. On modern SoCs, the sh-sci parent clock rate is no longer related
     to the CPU clock rate anyway, so using a cpufreq notifier is
     futile.

8250: use callbacks to access UART_DLL/UART_DLM

commit 0b41ce991052022c030fd868e03877700220b090 upstream.

Some UART HW has a single register combining UART_DLL/UART_DLM

callbacks, commit b32b19b8ffc05cbd3bf91c65e205f6a912ca15d9)
