It is possible that RX TIMEOUT is signalled after RX FIFO has been drained, in which case a dummy read of RX FIFO is required to clear RX TIMEOUT condition. Otherwise, RX TIMEOUT condition is not cleared leading to an interrupt storm Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reported-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Vignesh Raghavendra <vigneshr@xxxxxx> --- drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_omap.c | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_omap.c b/drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_omap.c index 8ac11eaeca51..c71bd766fa56 100644 --- a/drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_omap.c +++ b/drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_omap.c @@ -104,6 +104,9 @@ #define UART_OMAP_EFR2 0x23 #define UART_OMAP_EFR2_TIMEOUT_BEHAVE BIT(6) +/* RX FIFO occupancy indicator */ +#define UART_OMAP_RX_LVL 0x64 + struct omap8250_priv { int line; u8 habit; @@ -625,6 +628,15 @@ static irqreturn_t omap8250_irq(int irq, void *dev_id) serial8250_rpm_get(up); iir = serial_port_in(port, UART_IIR); ret = serial8250_handle_irq(port, iir); + /* + * It is possible that RX TIMEOUT is signalled after FIFO + * has been drained, in which case a dummy read of RX FIFO is + * required to clear RX TIMEOUT condition. + */ + if ((iir & UART_IIR_RX_TIMEOUT) == UART_IIR_RX_TIMEOUT) { + if (serial_port_in(port, UART_OMAP_RX_LVL) == 0) + serial_port_in(port, UART_RX); + } serial8250_rpm_put(up); return IRQ_RETVAL(ret); -- 2.31.1
