commit a26503092c75abba70a0be2aa01145ecf90c2a22 upstream.

When flushing transmit side DMA, it is the transmit channel that should
be terminated, not the receive channel.

commit f5cb528d6441eb860250a2f085773aac4f44085e upstream.

According to the LPUART reference manual, TXRTSE and TXRTSPOL of MODIR
register only can be changed when the transmitter is disabled.
So disable the transmitter before changing RS485 related registers and
re-enable it after the change is done.

commit 9e512eaaf8f4008c44ede3dfc0fbc9d9c5118583 upstream.

When flushing the serial port's buffer, uart_flush_buffer() calls
kfifo_reset() but if there is an outstanding DMA transfer then the
completion function will consume data from the kfifo via
uart_xmit_advance(), underflowing and leading to ongoing DMA as the
driver tries to transmit another 2^32 bytes.

This is readily reproduced with serial-generic and amidi sending even
short messages as closing the device on exit will wait for the fifo to
drain and in the underflow case amidi hangs for 30 seconds on exit in
tty_wait_until_sent().  A trace of that gives:

     kworker/1:1-84    [001]    51.769423: bprint:               serial8250_tx_dma: tx_size=3 fifo_len=3
           amidi-763   [001]    51.769460: bprint:               uart_flush_buffer: resetting fifo
 irq/21-fe530000-76    [000]    51.769474: bprint:               __dma_tx_complete: tx_size=3
 irq/21-fe530000-76    [000]    51.769479: bprint:               serial8250_tx_dma: tx_size=4096 fifo_len=4294967293
 irq/21-fe530000-76    [000]    51.781295: bprint:               __dma_tx_complete: tx_size=4096
 irq/21-fe530000-76    [000]    51.781301: bprint:               serial8250_tx_dma: tx_size=4096 fifo_len=4294963197
 irq/21-fe530000-76    [000]    51.793131: bprint:               __dma_tx_complete: tx_size=4096
 irq/21-fe530000-76    [000]    51.793135: bprint:               serial8250_tx_dma: tx_size=4096 fifo_len=4294959101

Since the port lock is held in when the kfifo is reset in
uart_flush_buffer() and in __dma_tx_complete(), adding a flush_buffer
hook to adjust the outstanding DMA byte count is sufficient to avoid the
kfifo underflow.

commit e8486bd50ecf63c9a1e25271f258a8d959f2672f upstream.

The documentation of the __uart_read_properties() states that
-&gt;iotype member is always altered after the function call, but
the code doesn't do that in the case when use_defaults == false
and the value of reg-io-width is unsupported. Make sure the code
follows the documentation.

Note, the current users of the uart_read_and_validate_port_properties()
will fail and the change doesn't affect their behaviour, neither
users of uart_read_port_properties() will be affected since the
alteration happens there even in the current code flow.

commit 166ac2bba167d575e7146beaa66093bc7c072f43 upstream.

Currently the -&gt;iotype is always assigned to the UPIO_MEM when
the respective property is not found. However, this will not
support the cases when user wants to have UPIO_PORT to be set
or preserved.  Support this scenario by checking -&gt;iobase value
and default the -&gt;iotype respectively.

commit b06f388994500297bb91be60ffaf6825ecfd2afe upstream.

lockdep detects the following circular locking dependency:

CPU 0                      CPU 1
========================== ============================
cdns_uart_isr()            printk()
  uart_port_lock(port)       console_lock()
			     cdns_uart_console_write()
                               if (!port-&gt;sysrq)
                                 uart_port_lock(port)
  uart_handle_break()
    port-&gt;sysrq = ...
  uart_handle_sysrq_char()
    printk()
      console_lock()

The fixed commit attempts to avoid this situation by only taking the
port lock in cdns_uart_console_write if port-&gt;sysrq unset. However, if
(as shown above) cdns_uart_console_write runs before port-&gt;sysrq is set,
then it will try to take the port lock anyway. This may result in a
deadlock.

Fix this by splitting sysrq handling into two parts. We use the prepare
helper under the port lock and defer handling until we release the lock.

commit b06f388994500297bb91be60ffaf6825ecfd2afe upstream.

lockdep detects the following circular locking dependency:

CPU 0                      CPU 1
========================== ============================
cdns_uart_isr()            printk()
  uart_port_lock(port)       console_lock()
			     cdns_uart_console_write()
                               if (!port-&gt;sysrq)
                                 uart_port_lock(port)
  uart_handle_break()
    port-&gt;sysrq = ...
  uart_handle_sysrq_char()
    printk()
      console_lock()

The fixed commit attempts to avoid this situation by only taking the
port lock in cdns_uart_console_write if port-&gt;sysrq unset. However, if
(as shown above) cdns_uart_console_write runs before port-&gt;sysrq is set,
then it will try to take the port lock anyway. This may result in a
deadlock.

<title>serial: sh-sci: Do not probe the serial port if its slot in sci_ports[] is in use</title>

commit 9f7dea875cc7f9c1a56a5c688290634a59cd1420 upstream.

In the sh-sci driver, sci_ports[0] is used by earlycon. If the earlycon is
still active when sci_probe() is called and the new serial port is supposed
to map to sci_ports[0], return -EBUSY to prevent breaking the earlycon.

This situation should occurs in debug scenarios, and users should be
aware of the potential conflict.

commit eaeee4225dba30bef4d424bdf134a07b7f423e8b upstream.

The port_cfg object is used by serial_console_write(), which serves as
the write function for the earlycon device. Marking port_cfg as __initdata
causes it to be freed after kernel initialization, resulting in earlycon
becoming unavailable thereafter. Remove the __initdata macro from port_cfg
to resolve this issue.
