[PATCH LINUX v3 03/10] tty: xuartps: Don't consider circular buffer when enabling transmitter

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Restarting the transmitter even if the circ buffer is empty may be
necessary to push out remaining data when the port is restarted after
being stopped.

v3:
 - changed this patch to not always enable the transmitter, but keep the
   check for uart_tx_stopped() in place, as suggested by Peter, whose
   explanation I also stole for the new commit message (thx)
