[PATCH 6.6 088/396] serial: core: only stop transmit when HW fifo is empty

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

 



6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jonas Gorski <jonas.gorski@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 7bfb915a597a301abb892f620fe5c283a9fdbd77 ]

If the circular buffer is empty, it just means we fit all characters to
send into the HW fifo, but not that the hardware finished transmitting
them.

So if we immediately call stop_tx() after that, this may abort any
pending characters in the HW fifo, and cause dropped characters on the
console.

Fix this by only stopping tx when the tx HW fifo is actually empty.
