earlycon: add reg-offset to physical address before mapping

2018-02-28T12:48:21+00:00

It will get the wrong virtual address because port->mapbase is not added
the correct reg-offset yet. We have to update it before earlycon_map()
is called

ACPI: SPCR: Make SPCR available to x86

2018-02-07T10:39:58+00:00

SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup
an early console.

General fixes include updating Documentation & Kconfig (for x86),
updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(),
and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be
more descriptive.

On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is
not 2 so the table version check must be a warning.

On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console
and console are enabled.  On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by
by default.  Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing
the early console and console separately.

tty: serial: Remove redundant license text

2017-11-08T12:08:12+00:00

Now that the SPDX tag is in all tty files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner.  So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text.  And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/

2017-11-08T12:08:12+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself.  The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

earlycon: initialise baud field of earlycon device structure

2017-08-31T16:47:31+00:00

For now baud field of earlycon structure device is't initialised at all
in of_setup_earlycon (in oppositе to register_earlycon).

So when I use stdout-path to point earlycon device
(like stdout-path = &serial or stdout-path = "serial:115200n8")
baud field of earlycon device structure remains uninitialised and
earlycon initialization is not performed correctly as
of_setup_earlycon is used.
When pass all arguments via bootargs
(like bootargs = "earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0xf0005000,115200n8")
initialization is performed correctly as register_earlycon is used.

So initialise baud field of earlycon device structure by value of
"current-speed" property from device tree or from options
(if they exist) when we use of_setup_earlycon

serial: earlycon: Only try fdt when specify 'earlycon' exactly

2017-08-28T18:51:21+00:00

When moving earlycon early_param handling to serial, the devicetree
earlycons enable condition changed slightly.

We used to only do that for 'console'/'earlycon', but now would also
for 'console='/'earlycon='.

Fix it by using the same condition like before.

ACPI: parse SPCR and enable matching console

2016-09-28T15:46:46+00:00

'ARM Server Base Boot Requiremets' [1] mentions SPCR (Serial Port
Console Redirection Table) [2] as a mandatory ACPI table that
specifies the configuration of serial console.

Defer initialization of DT earlycon until ACPI/DT decision is made.

Parse the ACPI SPCR table, setup earlycon if required,
enable specified console.

Thanks to Peter Hurley for explaining how this should work.

of/serial: move earlycon early_param handling to serial

2016-09-28T15:43:15+00:00

We have multiple "earlycon" early_param handlers - merge the DT one into
the main earlycon one.  It's a cleanup that also will be useful
to defer setting up DT console until ACPI/DT decision is made.

Rename the exported function to avoid clashing with the function from
arch/microblaze/kernel/prom.c

earlycon implementation used "unsigned long" internally, but there are systems

Switch to resource_size_t internally and replace obsoleted simple_strtoul() with
