[PATCH] serial: 8250_dw: Avoid pslverr on reading empty receiver fifo

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

 



From: VAMSHI GAJJELA <vamshigajjela@xxxxxxxxxx>

With PSLVERR_RESP_EN parameter set to 1, device generates an error
response when an attempt to read empty RBR with FIFO enabled.

This happens when LCR writes are ignored when UART is busy.
dw8250_check_lcr() in retries to updateLCR, invokes dw8250_force_idle()
to clear and reset fifo and eventually reads UART_RX causing pslverr.

Avoid this by not reading RBR/UART_RX when no data is available.
