Hello Alan > > What is the locking between setting/getting/driver use of the config ? > This really needs a lock (termios sem I think is perhaps appropriate > given when the values are normally referenced). I tried implementing it with the sermios sem ((&(uart_port)->state->port.tty->termios_rwsem)), but some drivers access the rs485 structure inside their irq handler. So I have see options here 1) Protect the structure with uart_port->lock spinlock 2) Assume that an assignment is atomic on critical sections where I cannot hold the rwsem. I think 1) is more correct. Any issues that I continue in this direction? Any better idea?
