Hi Huang,

DMA support doesn't work with latest stable v3.6.5 or development
3.7-rc5 kernels. I get following error message when I open the serial
port /dev/ttyAPP0:

[ 48.730000] mxs-auart 8006a000.serial: step 1 error
[ 48.750000] mxs-auart 8006a000.serial: We can not start up the DMA.

I tested this patch set in imx28-evk board Rev C with linux-next-20121114.
it works fine.

Maybe you can try the linux-next code.

I tested linux-next-20121114 on apx4devkit (imx28 based device) and I got the same error message:

# stty -F /dev/ttyAPP0 crtscts; microcom /dev/ttyAPP0 -s 115200
[  133.710000] mxs-auart 8006a000.serial: step 1 error
[  133.720000] mxs-auart 8006a000.serial: We can not start up the DMA.


About the flow control:
If we do not enable the HW flow control, the data may lost. And I do not
know how to handle with the Xon/Xoff when the DMA is supported.

I do not have the answer but it is already implemented in Freescale's reference kernel (http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/tree/drivers/serial/mxs-auart.c?h=imx_2.6.35_11.09.01). So I think it is possible to handle all data without HW flow control.
