2009-01-08[ARM] Ensure CONFIG_SERIAL_SAMSUNG_UARTS is always set.Ben Dooks
Always set CONFIG_SERIAL_SAMSUNG_UARTS when building any of the S3C platforms as even if the driver is not selected there it is still the facility for the machine files to register configuration data for the possibility of the driver being built. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org>
2009-01-08serial: Add driver for the Cell Network Processor serial port NWP deviceBenjamin Krill
Add support for the nwp serial device which is connected to a DCR bus. It uses the of_serial device driver to determine necessary properties from the device tree. The supported device is added as serial port number 85. NWP stands for network processor and it is part of the QPACE - Quantum Chromodynamics Parallel Computing on the Cell Broadband Engine project. The implementation is a lightweight uart implementation with the focus to consume as little resources as possible and it is connected to a DCR bus.

2008-10-13serial: allow 8250 to be used on sparcDavid Miller
This requires three changes: 1) Remove !SPARC restriction in Kconfig. 2) Move Sparc specific serial drivers before 8250, so that serial console devices don't change names on us, even if 8250 finds devices. 3) Since the Sparc specific serial drivers try to use the same major/minor device namespace as 8250, some coordination is necessary. Use the sunserial_*() layer routines to allocate minor number space within TTY_MAJOR when CONFIG_SPARC. This has no effect on other platforms.

2008-07-24remove the v850 portAdrian Bunk
Trying to compile the v850 port brings many compile errors, one of them exists since at least kernel 2.6.19. There also seems to be noone willing to bring this port back into a usable state. This patch therefore removes the v850 port. If anyone ever decides to revive the v850 port the code will still be available from older kernels, and it wouldn't be impossible for the port to reenter the kernel if it would become actively maintained again.

2008-02-08atmel_serial: add DMA supportChip Coldwell
This patch is based on the DMA-patch by Chip Coldwell for the AT91/AT32 serial USARTS, with some tweaks to make it apply neatly on top of the other patches in this series. The RX and TX code has been moved to a tasklet and reworked a bit. Instead of depending on the ENDRX and TIMEOUT bits in CSR, we simply grab as much data as we can from the DMA buffers. I think this closes a race where the ENDRX bit is set after we read CSR but before we read RPR, although I haven't confirmed this. Similarly, the two TX handlers (ENDTX and TXBUFE) have been combined into one. Since the current code only uses a single TX buffer, there's no point in handling those interrupts separately. This also fixes a DMA sync bug in the original patch.

2007-07-31revert "x86, serial: convert legacy COM ports to platform devices"Andrew Morton
Revert 7e92b4fc345f5b6f57585fbe5ffdb0f24d7c9b26. It broke Sébastien Dugué's machine and Jeff said (persuasively) This seems like it will break decades-long-working stuff, in favor of breaking new ground in our favorite area, "trusting the BIOS." It's just not worth it for serial ports, IMO. Serial ports are something that just shouldn't break at this late stage in the game. My new Intel platform boxes don't even have serial ports, so I question the value of messing with serial port probing even more... because... just wait a year, and your box won't have a serial port either! :) I certainly don't object to the use of platform devices (or isa_driver), but the probe change seems questionable. That's sorta analagous to rewriting the floppy driver probe routine. Sure you could do it... but why risk all that damage and go through debugging all over again? It seems clear from this report that we cannot, should not, trust BIOS for something (a) so simple and (b) that has been working for over a decade. Much discussion ensued and we've decided to have another go at all of this.

2007-07-18zs: move to the serial subsystemMaciej W. Rozycki
This is a reimplementation of the zs driver for the serial subsystem. Any resemblance to the old driver is purely coincidential. ;-) I do hope I got the handling of modem lines right -- better do not tackle me about the issue unless you feel too good... Any users of the old driver: please note the numbers of the serial lines have now been swapped, i.e. ttyS0 <-> ttyS1 and ttyS2 <-> ttyS3. It has to do with the modem lines mentioned above; basically the port A in a given chip has to be initialised before the port B if you want to use the latter as the serial console (which is usually the case), as operations on modem lines of the serial line associated with the port B access both ports (see the comment at the top of the driver for the details of wiring used). Please update your scripts. This is also the reason each SCC now requests an IRQ once only (as seen in "/proc/interrupts") -- the handler takes care of both ports at once as the line associated with the port B has to take status update interrupts from both ports (and yet the line of the port A takes its own for itself too). The old driver never got it right... Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

2007-07-17sb1250-duart.c: SB1250 DUART serial supportMaciej W. Rozycki
This is a driver for the SB1250 DUART, a dual serial port implementation included in the Broadcom family of SOCs descending from the SiByte SB1250 MIPS64 chip multiprocessor. It is a new implementation replacing the old-fashioned driver currently present in the linux-mips.org tree. It supports all the usual features one would expect from a(n asynchronous) serial driver, including modem line control (as far as hardware supports it -- there is edge detection logic missing from the DCD and RI lines and the driver does not implement polling of these lines at the moment), the serial console, BREAK transmission and reception, including the magic SysRq. The receive FIFO threshold is not maintained though. The driver was tested with a SWARM board which uses a BCM1250 SOC (which is dual MIPS64 CMP) and has both ports of the single DUART implemented wired externally. Both were tested. Testing included using the ports as terminal lines at 1200bps (which is the ports minimum), 115200bps and a couple of random speeds inbetween. The modem lines were verified to operate correctly. No testing was performed with a use as a network interface, like with SLIP or PPP. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

2007-07-16serial: convert early_uart to earlycon for 8250Yinghai Lu
Beacuse SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is removed from include/asm-i386/serial.h and include/asm-x86_64/serial.h. the serial8250_ports need to be probed late in serial initializing stage. the console_init=>serial8250_console_init=> register_console=>serial8250_console_setup will return -ENDEV, and console ttyS0 can not be enabled at that time. need to wait till uart_add_one_port in drivers/serial/serial_core.c to call register_console to get console ttyS0. that is too late. Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier. Make it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover feature. and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console automatically. new command line will be: console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 or earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 it will print in very early stage: Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8') console [uart0] enabled later for console it will print: console handover: boot [uart0] -> real [ttyS0] Signed-off-by: <yinghai.lu@sun.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
