commit 0863bffda1131fd2fa9c05b653ad9ee3d8db127e upstream.

This reverts commit 68e6939ea9ec3d6579eadeab16060339cdeaf940.

Kevin reported that this causes a crash during suspend on platforms that
dont use PM domains.

commit c9f6613b16123989f2c3bd04b1d9b2365d6914e7 upstream.

In RS485 mode, the RTS pin is driven high by hardware when the transmitter
is operating. This behaviour cannot be changed. This means that the driver
should claim that it supports SER_RS485_RTS_ON_SEND and not
SER_RS485_RTS_AFTER_SEND.

Otherwise, when configuring the port with the SER_RS485_RTS_ON_SEND, one
get the following warning:

kern.warning kernel: atmel_usart_serial atmel_usart_serial.2.auto:
ttyS1 (1): invalid RTS setting, using RTS_AFTER_SEND instead

which is contradictory with what's really happening.

commit dc98d76a15bc29a9a4e76f2f65f39f3e590fb15c upstream.

With "earlycon initcall_debug=1 loglevel=8" in bootargs, kernel
sometimes boot hang. It is because normal console still is not ready,
but runtime suspend is called, so early console putchar will hang
in waiting TRDE set in UARTSTAT.

The lpuart driver has auto suspend delay set to 3000ms, but during
uart_add_one_port, a child device serial ctrl will added and probed with
its pm runtime enabled(see serial_ctrl.c).
The runtime suspend call path is:
device_add
     |-&gt; bus_probe_device
           |-&gt;device_initial_probe
	           |-&gt;__device_attach
                         |-&gt; pm_runtime_get_sync(dev-&gt;parent);
			 |-&gt; pm_request_idle(dev);
			 |-&gt; pm_runtime_put(dev-&gt;parent);

So in the end, before normal console ready, the lpuart get runtime
suspended. And earlycon putchar will hang.

To address the issue, mark last busy just after pm_runtime_enable,
three seconds is long enough to switch from bootconsole to normal
console.

<title>serial: sc16is7xx: fix invalid FIFO access with special register set</title>

commit 7d3b793faaab1305994ce568b59d61927235f57b upstream.

When enabling access to the special register set, Receiver time-out and
RHR interrupts can happen. In this case, the IRQ handler will try to read
from the FIFO thru the RHR register at address 0x00, but address 0x00 is
mapped to DLL register, resulting in erroneous FIFO reading.

Call graph example:
    sc16is7xx_startup(): entry
    sc16is7xx_ms_proc(): entry
    sc16is7xx_set_termios(): entry
    sc16is7xx_set_baud(): DLH/DLL = $009C --&gt; access special register set
    sc16is7xx_port_irq() entry            --&gt; IIR is 0x0C
    sc16is7xx_handle_rx() entry
    sc16is7xx_fifo_read(): --&gt; unable to access FIFO (RHR) because it is
                               mapped to DLL (LCR=LCR_CONF_MODE_A)
    sc16is7xx_set_baud(): exit --&gt; Restore access to general register set

Fix the problem by claiming the efr_lock mutex when accessing the Special
register set.

commit 133f4c00b8b2bfcacead9b81e7e8edfceb4b06c4 upstream.

Sometimes, when a packet is received on channel A at almost the same time
as a packet is about to be transmitted on channel B, we observe with a
logic analyzer that the received packet on channel A is transmitted on
channel B. In other words, the Tx buffer data on channel B is corrupted
with data from channel A.

The problem appeared since commit 4409df5866b7 ("serial: sc16is7xx: change
EFR lock to operate on each channels"), which changed the EFR locking to
operate on each channel instead of chip-wise.

This commit has introduced a regression, because the EFR lock is used not
only to protect the EFR registers access, but also, in a very obscure and
undocumented way, to protect access to the data buffer, which is shared by
the Tx and Rx handlers, but also by each channel of the IC.

Fix this regression first by switching to kfifo_out_linear_ptr() in
sc16is7xx_handle_tx() to eliminate the need for a shared Rx/Tx buffer.

Secondly, replace the chip-wise Rx buffer with a separate Rx buffer for
each channel.

commit 6eabce6608d6f3440f4c03aa3d3ef50a47a3d193 upstream.

Calling ioctl TIOCSSERIAL with an invalid baud_base can
result in uartclk being zero, which will result in a
divide by zero error in uart_get_divisor(). The check for
uartclk being zero in uart_set_info() needs to be done
before other settings are made as subsequent calls to
ioctl TIOCSSERIAL for the same port would be impacted if
the uartclk check was done where uartclk gets set.

The Qualcomm GENI serial driver did not handle buffer flushing and used
to print discarded characters when the circular buffer was cleared.
Since commit 1788cf6a91d9 ("tty: serial: switch from circ_buf to kfifo")
this instead resulted in a hard lockup due to
qcom_geni_serial_send_chunk_fifo() spinning indefinitely in the
interrupt handler.

The underlying bugs have now been fixed, but make sure to output NUL
characters instead of killing the machine if a similar driver bug is
ever reintroduced.

The Qualcomm GENI serial driver does not handle buffer flushing and used
to continue printing discarded characters when the circular buffer was
cleared. Since commit 1788cf6a91d9 ("tty: serial: switch from circ_buf
to kfifo") this instead results in a hard lockup due to
qcom_geni_serial_send_chunk_fifo() spinning indefinitely in the
interrupt handler.

This is easily triggered by interrupting a command such as dmesg in a
serial console but can also happen when stopping a serial getty on
reboot.

Implement the flush_buffer() callback and use it to cancel any active TX
command when the write buffer has been emptied.

<title>serial: qcom-geni: fix soft lockup on sw flow control and suspend</title>

The stop_tx() callback is used to implement software flow control and
must not discard data as the Qualcomm GENI driver is currently doing
when there is an active TX command.

Cancelling an active command can also leave data in the hardware FIFO,
which prevents the watermark interrupt from being enabled when TX is
later restarted. This results in a soft lockup and is easily triggered
by stopping TX using software flow control in a serial console but this
can also happen after suspend.

Fix this by only stopping any active command, and effectively clearing
the hardware fifo, when shutting down the port. When TX is later
restarted, a transfer command may need to be issued to discard any stale
data that could prevent the watermark interrupt from firing.

<title>serial: imx: ensure RTS signal is not left active after shutdown</title>

If a process is killed while writing to a /dev/ttymxc* device in RS485
mode, we observe that the RTS signal is left high, thus making it
impossible for other devices to transmit anything.

Moreover, the -&gt;tx_state variable is left in state SEND, which means
that when one next opens the device and configures baud rate etc., the
initialization code in imx_uart_set_termios dutifully ensures the RTS
pin is pulled down, but since -&gt;tx_state is already SEND, the logic in
imx_uart_start_tx() does not in fact pull the pin high before
transmitting, so nothing actually gets on the wire on the other side
of the transceiver. Only when that transmission is allowed to complete
is the state machine then back in a consistent state.

This is completely reproducible by doing something as simple as

  seq 10000 &gt; /dev/ttymxc0

and hitting ctrl-C, and watching with a logic analyzer.
