[PATCH 2/3] serial: Make wakeup_capable a flag to reduce boot time

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

 



The synchronize_rcu() call resulting from making every serial driver
wake-up capable (commit b3b708fa) slows boot down by 600ms on my Tegra2x
system (with CONFIG_PREEMPT disabled).

Waking up the machine from a serial port seems to be an unlikely
requirement, so make serial_core default to not using the behaviour.

Before:
[    0.338809] Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled
[    0.951861] serial8250.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0x70006040 (irq = 69) is a Tegra
[    1.666042] console [ttyS0] enabled

After:
[    0.338452] Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled
[    0.339016] serial8250.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0x70006040 (irq = 69) is a Tegra
[    1.041860] console [ttyS0] enabled
