[PATCH v2 2/7] serial: qcom-geni: Fix the timeout in qcom_geni_serial_poll_bit()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The qcom_geni_serial_poll_bit() is supposed to be able to be used to
poll a bit that's will become set when a TX transfer finishes. Because
of this it tries to set its timeout based on how long the UART will
take to shift out all of the queued bytes. There are two problems
here:
1. There appears to be a hidden extra word on the firmware side which
   is the word that the firmware has already taken out of the FIFO and
   is currently shifting out. We need to account for this.
2. The timeout calculation was assuming that it would only need 8 bits
   on the wire to shift out 1 byte. This isn't true. Typically 10 bits
   are used (8 data bits, 1 start and 1 stop bit), but as much as 13
   bits could be used (14 if we allowed 9 bits per byte, which we
   don't).

The too-short timeout was seen causing problems in a future patch
which more properly waited for bytes to transfer out of the UART
before cancelling.
