Following patchset makes console work (patch 1 and 4) for an AT91SAM9G20 board connected to xhci_hcd and does some cleanup. Tested with "console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=ttyGS0" on kernel command line and following inittab: console::respawn:/sbin/getty -L 115200 ttyS0 vt100 console::respawn:/sbin/getty -L 115200 ttyGS0 vt100 However there is an issue remaining: Disconnect triggers WARN_ON in gs_close: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 501 at drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_serial.c:706 gs_close+0x3c/0x1e4 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 501 Comm: getty Not tainted 5.2.0-rc7 #44 Hardware name: Atmel AT91SAM9 [<c0107514>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<c01051c0>] (show_stack+0x10/0x18) [<c01051c0>] (show_stack) from [<c05465a8>] (dump_stack+0x18/0x24) [<c05465a8>] (dump_stack) from [<c010fa80>] (__warn+0xcc/0xe4) [<c010fa80>] (__warn) from [<c010fad0>] (warn_slowpath_null+0x38/0x48) [<c010fad0>] (warn_slowpath_null) from [<c03b6648>] (gs_close+0x3c/0x1e4) [<c03b6648>] (gs_close) from [<c03036b0>] (tty_release+0x1d4/0x460) [<c03036b0>] (tty_release) from [<c01ce464>] (__fput+0xe4/0x1b0) [<c01ce464>] (__fput) from [<c0124e1c>] (task_work_run+0x8c/0xa8) [<c0124e1c>] (task_work_run) from [<c011155c>] (do_exit+0x354/0x814) [<c011155c>] (do_exit) from [<c0111a9c>] (do_group_exit+0x54/0xb8) [<c0111a9c>] (do_group_exit) from [<c011a190>] (get_signal+0x18c/0x658) [<c011a190>] (get_signal) from [<c0104bbc>] (do_work_pending+0xe0/0x44c) [<c0104bbc>] (do_work_pending) from [<c0101068>] (slow_work_pending+0xc/0x20) Exception stack(0xc3797fb0 to 0xc3797ff8) 7fa0: 00000000 beb87d0c 00000001 00000000 7fc0: 0009a150 00000000 00099c04 00000003 0009a198 0007e049 00099bd4 0009a1e4 7fe0: b6e3f000 beb87cd8 00018210 b6dbcc40 60000010 00000000 ---[ end trace 70af570fde0de49b ]--- Explanation lives in drivers/tty/serial/ip22zilog.c at line 751 (see also __tty_hangup), but naive approach adding if (test_bit(TTY_HUPPING, &tty->flags)) return 0; at the beginning of gs_close does not work as this way port->port.count never drops back to zero. Ideas welcome. Btw, it would seem nicer to have single output kfifo for both kernel console and tty, but that involves greater changes and I'd like to have driver working in stable as well. Changes: - v2: Fixed locking, patches splitted, starving write fixed.
