serial: 8250: Fix PM usage_count for console handover

2022-06-30T15:17:31+00:00

When console is enabled, univ8250_console_setup() calls
serial8250_console_setup() before .dev is set to uart_port. Therefore,
it will not call pm_runtime_get_sync(). Later, when the actual driver
is going to take over univ8250_console_exit() is called. As .dev is
already set, serial8250_console_exit() makes pm_runtime_put_sync() call
with usage count being zero triggering PM usage count warning
(extra debug for univ8250_console_setup(), univ8250_console_exit(), and
serial8250_register_ports()):

[    0.068987] univ8250_console_setup ttyS0 nodev

[    1.978167] printk: console [ttyS0] printing thread started

To fix the issue, call pm_runtime_get_sync() in
serial8250_register_ports() as soon as .dev is set for an uart_port
if it has console enabled.

This problem became apparent only recently because 82586a721595 ("PM:
runtime: Avoid device usage count underflows") added the warning
printout. I confirmed this problem also occurs with v5.18 (w/o the
warning printout, obviously).

serial: core: Introduce callback for start_rx and do stop_rx in suspend only if this callback implementation is present.

2022-06-10T11:30:41+00:00

In suspend sequence there is a need to perform stop_rx during suspend
sequence to prevent any asynchronous data over rx line. However this
can cause problem to drivers which dont do re-start_rx during set_termios.

Add new callback start_rx and perform stop_rx only when implementation of
start_rx is present. Also add call to start_rx in resume sequence so that
drivers who come across this problem can make use of this framework.

serial: core: Do stop_rx in suspend path for console if console_suspend is disabled

2022-05-19T16:31:52+00:00

For the case of console_suspend disabled, if back to back suspend/resume
test is executed, at the end of test, sometimes console would appear to
be frozen not responding to input. This would happen because, during
resume, rx transactions can come in before system is ready, malfunction
of rx happens in turn resulting in console appearing to be stuck.

Do a stop_rx in suspend sequence to prevent this.

serial: Store character timing information to uart_port

2022-04-26T11:28:32+00:00

Struct uart_port currently stores FIFO timeout. Having character timing
information readily available is useful. Even serial core itself
determines char_time from port->timeout using inverse calculation.

Store frame_time directly into uart_port. Character time is stored in
nanoseconds to have reasonable precision with high rates. To avoid
overflow, 64-bit math is necessary.

It might be possible to determine timeout from frame_time by
multiplying it with fifosize as needed but only part of the users seem
to be protected by a lock. Thus, this patch does not pursue storing
only frame_time in uart_port.

serial: core: fix tcdrain() with CTS enabled

2022-04-22T14:25:06+00:00

Do not set timeout to twice the approximate amount of time to send the
entire FIFO if CTS is enabled. If the caller requested no timeout, e.g.
when userspace program called tcdrain(), then wait without any timeout.

Premature return from tcdrain() was observed on imx based system which
has 32 character long transmitter FIFO with hardware CTS handling.

Simple userspace application that reproduces problem has to:
  * Open tty device, enable hardware flow control (CRTSCTS)
  * Write data, e.g. 26 bytes
  * Call tcdrain() to wait for the transmitter
  * Close tty device

The other side of serial connection has to:
  * Receive some data, e.g. 10 bytes
  * Set RTS output (CTS input from sender perspective) inactive for
    at least twice the port timeout
  * Try to receive remaining data

Without this patch, userspace application will finish without any error
while the other side of connection will never receive remaining data.

serial: When UART is suspended, set RTS to false

2022-04-15T09:40:05+00:00

When flow control is enabled, the UART should set RTS to false
during suspend to stop incoming data. Currently, the suspend
routine sets the mctrl register in the uart to zero, but leaves
the shadow version in the uart_port struct alone so that resume
can restore it. This causes a problem later in suspend when
serial8250_do_shutdown() is called which uses the shadow mctrl
register to clear some additional bits but ends up restoring RTS.
The solution is to clear RTS from the shadow version before
serial8250_do_shutdown() is called and restore it after.

serial: core: move RS485 configuration tasks from drivers into core

2022-04-15T09:30:21+00:00

Several drivers that support setting the RS485 configuration via userspace
implement one or more of the following tasks:

- in case of an invalid RTS configuration (both RTS after send and RTS on
  send set or both unset) fall back to enable RTS on send and disable RTS
  after send

- nullify the padding field of the returned serial_rs485 struct

- copy the configuration into the uart port struct

- limit RTS delays to 100 ms

Move these tasks into the serial core to make them generic and to provide
a consistent behaviour among all drivers.

serial: 8250: fix XOFF/XON sending when DMA is used

2022-03-18T12:30:54+00:00

When 8250 UART is using DMA, x_char (XON/XOFF) is never sent
to the wire. After this change, x_char is injected correctly.

Create uart_xchar_out() helper for sending the x_char out and
accounting related to it. It seems that almost every driver
does these same steps with x_char. Except for 8250, however,
almost all currently lack .serial_out so they cannot immediately
take advantage of this new helper.

The downside of this patch is that it might reintroduce
the problems some devices faced with mixed DMA/non-DMA transfer
which caused revert f967fc8f165f (Revert "serial: 8250_dma:
don't bother DMA with small transfers"). However, the impact
should be limited to cases with XON/XOFF (that didn't work
with DMA capable devices to begin with so this problem is not
very likely to cause a major issue, if any at all).

serial: make uart_console_write->putchar()'s character an unsigned char

2022-03-03T14:06:31+00:00

Currently, uart_console_write->putchar's second parameter (the
character) is of type int. It makes little sense, provided uart_console_write()
accepts the input string as "const char *s" and passes its content -- the
characters -- to putchar(). So switch the character's type to unsigned
char.

We don't use char as that is signed on some platforms. That would cause
troubles for drivers which (implicitly) cast the char to u16 when
writing to the device. Sign extension would happen in that case and the
value written would be completely different to the provided char. DZ is
an example of such a driver -- on MIPS, it uses u16 for dz_out in
dz_console_putchar().

Note we do the char -> uchar conversion implicitly in
uart_console_write(). Provided we do not change size of the data type,
sign extension does not happen there, so the problem is void.

This makes the types consistent and unified with the rest of the uart
layer, which uses unsigned char in most places already. One exception is
xmit_buf, but that is going to be converted later.
