This series tries to revive the work of Giulio Benetti from 2018 [0] which seemed to have stalled at that time. The board I needed that on also had the additional caveat that it uses non-standard pins for DE/RE so needed gpio mctrl layer as well and even more special needed to control the RE pin manually not as part of it being connected to the DE signal as seems to be the standard. Depends on Lukas Wunner's series adding the rs485 bus term gpio: https://lore.kernel.org/r/cover.1588505407.git.lukas@xxxxxxxxx changes in v3: - wording fixes for dt-binding (Andy) - maxItems 1 in dt-binding (Lukas) - use devm_gpiod_get_optional (Andy) - remove unneeded gpio checks (Andy) - use GPIOD_OUT_HIGH for initial value (Lukas) - split loop-reading into the existing timer infrastructure Changes in v2: - move to recent rs485 improvements in tty-next - added a capability for TEMT interrupt presence - external gpio for optional receiver-enable handling - timeout polling via the generic readx_poll_timeout Changes from the 2018 submission include: - add timeout when waiting for fifos to clear using a new helper - move on-boot enablement of the rs485 mode to after registering the port. This saves having to copy the em485 struct as done originally, which also ran into spinlock-debug warnings when testing and also makes it actually possible to use the mctrl gpio layer for non-standard gpios.
