Hi All, I managed to write an improved ark3116 driver after I figured out that it is just an 16450 UART with some USB glue logic. Compared to the old ark3116 driver it offers the following improvements: - cts/rts handshake support - break signalling - line error detection Since it is a big step from the previous driver, it made little sense to modify that one, so I created new driver, named ark316new. Also this means that both could coexist if the new one doesn't work for someone. I have no datasheet, so the driver is entirely based on reverse engineering, and some testing by others would be a good idea. I also tried to include the IrDA fixes for the old ark3116.c driver that were posted on this list recently, but I could not test if these work, since I don't have the proper hardware. Because of this, I would appreciate reports of both success and failure in using this driver. Thanks! Groeten, Bart PS I hope gmail doesn't mangle the attachments. -- Bart Hartgers - New e-mail: bart.hartgers@xxxxxxxxx

Since I do not have any datasheet or other * documentation, inaccuracies are almost guaranteed. * * Some specs for the ARK3116 can be found here: * http://web.archive.org/web/20060318000438/www.arkmicro.com/en/products/view.php?id=10 * On that page, 2 GPIO pins are mentioned: I assume these are the * OUT1 and OUT2 pins of the UART, so I added support for those * through the MCR. Since the pins are not available on my hardware, * I could not verify this. * Also, it states there is "on-chip hardware flow control". I have * discovered how to enable that. Unfortunately, I do not know how to * enable XON/XOFF (software) flow control, which would need support * from the chip as well to work. Because of the wording on the web * page there is a real possibility the chip simply does not support * software flow control. * * I got my ark3116 as part of a mobile phone adapter cable. On the * PCB, the following numbered contacts are present: * * 1:- +5V * 2:o DTR * 3:i RX * 4:i DCD * 5:o RTS * 6:o TX * 7:i RI * 8:i DSR * 10:- 0V * 11:i CTS * * On my chip, all signals seem to be 3.3V, but 5V tolerant. But that * may be different for the one you have ;-). * * The windows driver limits the registers to 0-F, so I assume there * are actually 16 present on the device. * * On an UART interrupt, 4 bytes of data come in on the interrupt * endpoint. The bytes are 0xe8 IIR LSR MSR. * * The baudrate seems to be generated from the 12MHz crystal, using * 4-times subsampling. So quot=12e6/(4*baud). Also see description * of register E. * * Registers 0-7: * These seem to be the same as for a regular 16450. The FCR is set * to UART_FCR_DMA_SELECT (0x8), I guess to enable transfers between * the UART and the USB bridge/DMA engine. * * Register 8: * By trial and error, I found out that bit 0 enables hardware CTS, * stopping TX when CTS is +5V. Bit 1 does the same for RTS, making * RTS +5V when the 3116 cannot transfer the data to the USB bus * (verified by disabling the reading URB). Note that as far as I can * tell, the windows driver does NOT use this, so there might be some * hardware bug or something. * * According to a patch provided here * (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/26/56), the ARK3116 can also be used * as an IrDA dongle. Since I do not have such a thing, I could not * investigate that aspect. However, I can speculate ;-). * * - IrDA encodes data differently than RS232. Most likely, one of * the bits in registers 9..E enables the IR ENDEC (encoder/decoder). * - Depending on the IR transceiver, the input and output need to be * inverted, so there are probably bits for that as well. * - IrDA is half-duplex, so there should be a bit for selecting that. * * This still leaves at least two registers unaccounted for. Perhaps * The chip can do XON/XOFF or CRC in HW? * * Register 9: * Set to 0x00 for IrDA, when the baudrate is initialised. * * Register A: * Set to 0x01 for IrDA, at init. * * Register B: * Set to 0x01 for IrDA, 0x00 for RS232, at init. * * Register C: * Set to 00 for IrDA, at init. * * Register D: * Set to 0x41 for IrDA, at init. * * Register E: * Somekind of baudrate override. The windows driver seems to set * this to 0x00 for normal baudrates, 0x01 for 460800, 0x02 for 921600. * Since 460800 and 921600 cannot be obtained by dividing 3MHz by an integer, * it could be somekind of subdivisor thingy. * However,it does not seem to do anything: selecting 921600 (divisor 3, * reg E=2), still gets 1 MHz. I also checked if registers 9, C or F would * work, but they don't. * * Register F: unknown */
