Hi Greg,
This patch set introduces tunable RX interrupt trigger I/F for 8250 serials.
I just split V7's patch up into 2 patches, and all functions are not changed
from previous version. V6 patch was reviewed by Stephen Warren and acked,
but I removed the 'Reviewed-by' for this patch set just in case.
Would you review this patch set?
Thanks!
<Change log>
Changes in V8:
- Split V7's patch up into 2 patches
Changes in V7:
- Add Documentation
- Change I/F name from rx_int_trig to rx_trig_bytes because the name
rx_int_trig is hard to understand how users specify the value
Changes in V6:
- Move FCR_RX_TRIG_* definition in 8250.h to include/uapi/linux/serial_reg.h,
rename those to UART_FCR_R_TRIG_*, and use UART_FCR_TRIGGER_MASK to
UART_FCR_R_TRIG_BITS()
- Change following function names:
convert_fcr2val() => fcr_get_rxtrig_bytes()
convert_val2rxtrig() => bytes_to_fcr_rxtrig()
- Fix typo in serial8250_do_set_termios()
- Delete the verbose error message pr_info() in bytes_to_fcr_rxtrig()
- Rename *rx_int_trig/rx_trig* to *rxtrig* for several functions or variables
(but UI remains rx_int_trig)
- Change the meaningless variable name 'val' to 'bytes' following functions:
fcr_get_rxtrig_bytes(), bytes_to_fcr_rxtrig(), do_set_rxtrig(),
do_serial8250_set_rxtrig(), and serial8250_set_attr_rxtrig()
- Use up->fcr in order to get rxtrig_bytes instead of rx_trig_raw in
fcr_get_rxtrig_bytes()
- Use conf_type->rxtrig_bytes[0] instead of switch statement for support check
in register_dev_spec_attr_grp()
- Delete the checking whether a user changed FCR or not when minimum buffer
is needed in serial8250_do_set_termios()
Changes in V5.1:
- Fix FCR_RX_TRIG_MAX_STATE definition
Changes in V5:
- Support Tegra, 16650V2, 16654, and 16750
- Store default FCR value to up->fcr when the port is first created
- Add rx_trig_byte[] in uart_config[] for each device and use rx_trig_byte[]
in convert_fcr2val() and convert_val2rxtrig()
Changes in V4:
- Introduce fifo_bug flag in uart_8250_port structure
This is enabled only when parity is enabled and UART_BUG_PARITY is enabled
for up->bugs. If this flag is enabled, user cannot set RX trigger.
- Return -EOPNOTSUPP when it does not support device at convert_fcr2val() and
at convert_val2rxtrig()
- Set the nearest lower RX trigger when users input a meaningless value at
convert_val2rxtrig()
- Check whether p->fcr is existing at serial8250_clear_and_reinit_fifos()
- Set fcr = up->fcr in the begging of serial8250_do_set_termios()
Changes in V3:
- Change I/F from ioctl(2) to sysfs(rx_int_trig)
Changed in V2:
- Use _IOW for TIOCSFIFORTRIG definition
- Pass the interrupt trigger value itself
