OK yeah I've confirmed that serial-omap also won't do anything with the pasted data until woken up. It takes some time to get things powered up again, there's nothing we can do beyond having the autoidle disabled by default. > > Comparing it with serial-omap I see the same thing: I takes approx the > > same amount of data until the first one is displayed.

Hmm I have not seen the RX hang with serial-omap when pasting data to the console to wake it up. > > One thing that is probably a dumb idea is that printk in > > omap_8250_mdr1_errataset(). > > Would it be possible that when I hit a printk in the resume path that I > > may deadlock and box will freeze? I guess yeah. You may want to use pstore as console to debug that. You need to use this patch to prevent pstore from hanging: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/9/831 Then enable: CONFIG_PSTORE=y CONFIG_PSTORE_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_PSTORE_RAM=y CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y CONFIG_PSTORE_FTRACE=y Then at kernel cmdline, specify something like this: memmap=2M$0x88000000 ramoops.mem_address=0x88000000 ramoops.mem_size=0x200000 ramoops.record_size=0x40000 And leave out console=ttyS line and spin up a getty on the serial line. After booting, you should just need to do: # mount -t pstore - /sys/fs/pstore And then you see dmesg in /sys/fs/pstore. To debug hangs, set up the PMIC watchdog and do not set up omap watchdog, and you should see the last dmesg in /sys/fs/pstore after a warm reset.
