This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iio: adc: ti_am335x_adc: fix fifo overrun recovery to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From e83bb3e6f3efa21f4a9d883a25d0ecd9dfb431e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Engl <michael.engl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 3 Oct 2017 13:57:00 +0100 Subject: iio: adc: ti_am335x_adc: fix fifo overrun recovery The tiadc_irq_h(int irq, void *private) function is handling FIFO overruns by clearing flags, disabling and enabling the ADC to recover. If the ADC is running in continuous mode a FIFO overrun happens regularly. If the disabling of the ADC happens concurrently with a new conversion. It might happen that the enabling of the ADC is ignored by the hardware. This stops the ADC permanently. No more interrupts are triggered. According to the AM335x Reference Manual (SPRUH73H October 2011 - Revised April 2013 - Chapter 12.4 and 12.5) it is necessary to check the ADC FSM bits in REG_ADCFSM before enabling the ADC again. Because the disabling of the ADC is done right after the current conversion has been finished. To trigger this bug it is necessary to run the ADC in continuous mode. The ADC values of all channels need to be read in an endless loop. The bug appears within the first 6 hours (~5.4 million handled FIFO overruns). The user space application will hang on reading new values from the character device.
