[PATCH v3 0/2] serial: mxs-auart: wait for DMA buffer to flush before shutdown

[PATCH v3 0/2] serial: mxs-auart: wait for DMA buffer to flush before shutdown

[Hector Palacios]

This fixes a bug whereby the AUART was shutdown while bytes
were still waiting in the DMA buffer to be transmistted.

Changes since v2:
 * Added Reviewed/Acked-by tags to first commit.
 * Move tx_empty callback up to avoid forward declaration.
 * Move BUSY flag check to tx_empty callback to avoid check
   on shutdown call.

Changes since v1:
 * Split the patch in two: one to set the fifosize to the
   DMA buffer size, and another to wait for the FIFO to empty
   before disabling the AUART.
 * The wait for the fifo to empty is now independent of DMA
   being enabled.
 * Fix bug on readl() call
 * Remove bad URL in commit log

[PATCH v3 1/2] serial: mxs-auart: set the FIFO size to DMA buffer size

[Hector Palacios]

When DMA is enabled (with hardware flow control enabled) the FIFO size
must be set to the size of the DMA buffer, as this is the size the tty
subsystem can use.

[PATCH v3 2/2] serial: mxs-auart: wait for FIFO to flush before shutdown

[Hector Palacios]

The shutdown function was not waiting for the FIFO (which may be the
real 16 byte FIFO or the DMA buffer, if DMA is enabled) to flush
before disabling the AUART.
This lead to many bytes not being transferred (specially at low
baudrates), as they were still in the DMA buffer when the AUART was
shutdown.
This patch also adds the check for the BUSY flag on the tx_empty
callback.

there is only a single concern left and probably only the Freescale guys

Can it happen that both the fifo and the shifter are empty but there are
still some chars pending to be transfered via DMA? If you were checking
if dma is still setup you'd be on the safe side.

I meet a similar bug with the imx.c which is used for the I.MX.

I did not implement the uart_ops->flush_buffer() hook, so the DMA may fails.

So could we add a new flush_buffer hook for mxs-auart?

Please see the Documentation/serail/driver.

thanks

I'm deleting this from my queue until this gets resolved.  Someone
please resend it when it does.
