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

 



This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    serial: fsl_lpuart: avoid new transfer while DMA is running

to my tty git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-testing 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 be merged to the tty-next branch sometime soon,
after it passes testing, and the merge window is open.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: serial: fsl_lpuart: avoid new transfer while DMA is running

When the UART is in DMA receive mode (RDMAS set) and one character
just arrived while another interrupt is handled (e.g. TX), the RDRF
(receiver data register full flag) is set due to the water level of
1. But since the DMA will take care of this character, there is no
need to handle it by calling lpuart_prepare_rx. Handling it leads to
adding the RX timeout timer twice:

Solve this by only execute the receiver path (lpuart_prepare_rx) if
the DMA receive mode (RDMAS) is not set. Also, make sure the flag is
cleared on initialization, in case it has been left set.

This can be best reproduced using UART as a serial console, then
running top while dd'ing data into the terminal.
