[PATCH 2/2] serial: qcom-geni: Fix qcom_geni_serial_stop_tx_fifo() while xfer

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

 



If qcom_geni_serial_stop_tx_fifo() was called while a transfer was
happening then the UART would be effectively stuck and wouldn't
transmit again. Specifically, I could reproduce these problem by
logging in via an agetty on the debug serial port (which was _not_
used for kernel console) and running:
  cat /var/log/messages
...and then (via an SSH session) forcing a few suspend/resume cycles.

Digging into this showed a number of problems. One problem was that we
cancelled the current "tx" command but we forgot to zero out
"tx_remaining". Another problem was that we didn't drain the buffer
before cancelling the "tx" command and thus those bytes were
lost. Another problem was that failing to drain the buffer meant that
the hardware still reported something in the FIFO and that caused
qcom_geni_serial_start_tx_fifo() to be a no-op, since it doesn't do
anything if the TX FIFO is not empty.

Though I haven't gone back and validated on ancient code, it appears
from code inspection that many of these problems have existed since
the start of the driver. In the very least, I could reproduce the
problems on vanilla v5.15. The problems don't seem to reproduce when
using the serial port for kernel console output and also don't seem to
reproduce if nothing is being printed to the console at suspend time,
so this is presumably why they were not noticed until now.
