Specifically, I can't get SBSA early console to work, because uap->vendor is uninitialized when pl011_early_write() is called. I don't have a non-SBSA system to test, but looking at the code, I'm not sure how early console is supposed to work any more. In both SBSA and non-SBSA cases, uap->vendor is not initialized until the probe function is called. Isn't that too late? I thought early console was supposed to be running before the driver is probed. If I make this change, then early console works on SBSA systems (with earlycon=pl011,<address>). But of course, this only works for SBSA and breaks regular PL011. --- a/drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c +++ b/drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c @@ -2326,9 +2326,15 @@ static void pl011_early_write(struct console *con, const static int __init pl011_early_console_setup(struct earlycon_device *device, const char *opt) { + struct uart_amba_port *uap = + container_of(&device->port, struct uart_amba_port, port); + if (!device->port.membase) return -ENODEV; + if (!uap->vendor) + uap->vendor = &vendor_sbsa; + device->con->write = pl011_early_write; return 0; } -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc.
