hci_qca interfaces to the wcn3990 via a uart_dm on the msm8998 mtp and
Lenovo Miix 630 laptop.  As part of initializing the wcn3990, hci_qca
disables flow, configures the uart baudrate, and then reenables flow - at
which point an event is expected to be received over the uart from the
wcn3990.  It is observed that this event comes after the baudrate change
but before hci_qca re-enables flow. This is unexpected, and is a result of
msm_reset() being broken.

According to the uart_dm hardware documentation, it is recommended that
automatic hardware flow control be enabled by setting RX_RDY_CTL.  Auto
hw flow control will manage RFR based on the configured watermark.  When
there is space to receive data, the hw will assert RFR.  When the watermark
is hit, the hw will de-assert RFR.

The hardware documentation indicates that RFR can me manually managed via
CR when RX_RDY_CTL is not set.  SET_RFR asserts RFR, and RESET_RFR
de-asserts RFR.

msm_reset() is broken because after resetting the hardware, it
unconditionally asserts RFR via SET_RFR.  This enables flow regardless of
the current configuration, and would undo a previous flow disable
operation.  It should instead de-assert RFR via RESET_RFR to block flow
until the hardware is reconfigured.  msm_serial should rely on the client
to specify that flow should be enabled, either via mctrl() or the termios
structure, and only assert RFR in response to those triggers.

I traced msm_reset() and msm_set_mctrl() and I get the following:
       swapper/0-1     [000] d..1     3.091726: msm_set_mctrl: msm_set_mctrl() reset rfr
       swapper/0-1     [000] d..1     3.117046: msm_set_mctrl: msm_set_mctrl() reset rfr
       swapper/0-1     [000] d..1     3.125484: msm_set_termios: msm_reset() set rfr
       swapper/0-1     [003] d..1     4.491430: msm_set_termios: msm_reset() set rfr
       swapper/0-1     [003] d..1     4.491733: msm_set_mctrl: msm_set_mctrl() auto rfr
           login-313   [001] d..1    78.010785: msm_set_mctrl: msm_set_mctrl() reset rfr
           login-313   [001] d..1    78.011007: msm_set_termios: msm_reset() set rfr
           login-313   [001] d..1    78.011021: msm_set_mctrl: msm_set_mctrl() auto rfr
           login-313   [001] d..1    78.063330: msm_set_termios: msm_reset() set rfr
           login-313   [001] d..1    78.063641: msm_set_termios: msm_reset() set rfr

So while your change does make sense for BT, wouldn't this mean that
with your patch and a 4-pin UART for the console I would end this dance
with receive flow blocked?

Bjorn

No.  I don't think it occurred to you to consider how RX_RDY_CTL
factors into this.  RX_RDY_CTL allows the hardware to enable flow when
the hardware determines it is able to receive data.  RX_RDY_CTL gets
set in mctrl, and set_termios - essentially when the uart client has
indicated flow can be enabled.

Even though the console is a 2 wire console on msm8998, the driver
will go through the same flow.  I verified that RX_RDY_CTL is set on
the console uart after boot, so we won't end up with flow blocked.

However, this does bring up another issue.  RX_RDY_CTL doesn't get
unset in msm_reset.  RESET_RX will disable the rx path in the
hardware, and prevent RX_RDY_CTL from being active, but the rx path is
enabled in set_baud_rate() before RX_RDY_CTL can be masked out in
set_termios, so there may be a small window where flow can
inadvertently enabled.  I'll spin a v2 that also unsets RX_RDY_CTL in
msm_reset().

I see, so per above trace when login does it's rfr toggling RX_RDY_CTL
is already set (and will be maintained), so we'll allow flow at each
part of the process.

Yes, that sounds reasonable. And for the console case the difference
will be that we deassert RFR while the serial is being reset and
reconfigured; which sounds like the right thing to do.
