Hi, this is v2, hopefully without any build issues. The changes are the same as before, just the warning reported by kbuild test robot about unused variables have been fixed. And, I added one more patch with some cleanup/refactoring. I recently found my system locking up under some conditions. I dug through the code a bit and the result is this collections of various changes. Some of it may not be required and has just been created out of half-baked theories and re-reading the documentation. The actual failing scenarios seem to be: - RX IRQ conditions are handled while the receiver is disabled, leaving the driver in an infinite loop - console_put_char seems to be interrupted by uart_shutdown disabling the transmitter while/just before printing I.e. overall I tried to serialize all operations using the port lock to avoid such interaction.
