[RFC PATCH v2 4/4] tty/serial8250: Make use of IRQ_HANDLED_MANY interface

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

 



For every TX byte an IRQ is requested.
On threaded IRQs, the handler calls serial8250_tx_chars can send multiple
bytes, limited to it's queue size (tx_loadsz).

When this happens, the handler return IRQ_HANDLED with reduces the
unhandled IRQ counter only by 1, even though many requests have been
handled at once.

This causes the unhandled IRQ counter to go up until it reaches the maximum
and causes the registered IRQ to be disabled, thus breaking the serial
console.

Make use of the newly introduced IRQ_HANDLED_MANY interface to return the
number of requests handled, so the unhandled IRQ counter can get decreased
accordingly.
