[GIT PULL 1/2] bcm2835-dt-fixes-2017-10-06

[Eric Anholt]

Hi Florian.  Here's a patch that's gone through a couple of revisions
on the list, that seriously fixes up the default serial behavior --
previously, without the right config.txt/cmdline bits, you'd often end
up with a hang with no output before booting completed.  It would be
great to get it into 4.14.

The following changes since commit 2bd6bf03f4c1c59381d62c61d03f6cc3fe71f66e:

----------------------------------------------------------------
This pull request brings in a fix for default serial console setup on
RPi3, so it now comes up with no config.txt/cmdline.txt settings in
the firmware.

Hi all,

I realise this patch has been in mainline for a more than a week, but
I've only recently had time to bisect broken rpi-3 boots in kernelci
and found f08f58a2bf68900a84e782b8c7ad701c0654173c as the cause.

Kernelci boots the rpi3 using uboot, with console=ttyS0 in the command
line which now fails:
https://kernelci.org/boot/id/59f787f059b5147794ef1dcf/

Is there an alias I can use for both before and after this patch?

Mainline boots fine if I use console=ttyS1 or drop the console arg
altogether, but as we don't currently support different boot args per
tree, and we don't have the manpower to track this patch in all the
trees we test, we will have to switch to only boot testing mainline
from now on.

It seems to me the patch is doing the right thing, so this is just an
FYI, though I can imagine a few users getting caught by this.

Cheers

Yes, I've seen the same in Fedora with that patch.

could you please describe the issue more in detail.

Does u-boot or Linux hang? Does u-boot select the wrong UART? Is there a
pinmux conflict?

Which u-boot version do you use?

Basically on the RPi3 you use to get ttyAMA0 and ttyS0 but now the
later is ttyS1

which UART is which now. It should expose the Bluetooth UART correctly now. And also more importantly usable. The only missing piece with 4.14 would be the DT assigned for serdev. While 4.14 would still require a call to btattach, starting with 4.15 that should no longer be needed.

These are the 2 boot reports from KernelCI, there some LAVA debug in
there but you can see the uboot version and boot commands used.

Yeah, this matches my experience basically.  As far as I can tell, we
were just doing things wrong before, thus needing these custom boot args
that we can all now get rid of.  I wish I had a better answer.

what happens if you specify both?

You can't do that, as per
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/admin-guide/serial-console.rst#n45

I tried it anyway, and new kernel with this patch failed with the same
error, I suspect it used the first console definition on the command
line.

Incidentally, on the old pre-patch kernel, it did boot to a prompt but
I got double kernel output as it setup 2 consoles both on ttyS0.
https://pastebin.com/raw/Uf09gUaP

I think Eric is right here, it was just wrong before and we'll have to
live with the legacy.

Looks to be ttyAMA0

[    4.480469] 3f201000.serial: ttyAMA0 at MMIO 0x3f201000 (irq = 72,
base_baud = 0) is a PL011 rev2

With 4.14 I get the following, the address doesn't look right, do you
have a link to the serdev patch headed to 4.15?

We already have that one included in the Fedora kernel, I wonder what
else I'm doing wrong.

So it seems it's actually working fine albeit the strange mac addr, no
idea what I was trying before, although there's an error about loading
firmware:

[   31.035291] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: chip id 94
[   31.035801] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: features 0x2e
[   31.037483] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM43430A1

brcm/BCM43430A1.hcd failed with error -2
[   31.037704] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: Patch brcm/BCM43430A1.hcd not found

By adding a firmware [1] to the location it actually now stops
working, although shows up with a hciconfig, and had the following
errors.

[   26.078038] Bluetooth: hci0: BCM: chip id 94

Ok, think that's why you have this kind of 'default' address, you should be able
to provision a valid address with btmgmt tool. The chip can work
without applying
patch file, original firmware is then executed, which is potentially
more or less buggy.

Really weird, because these steps are prior firmware loading, moreover on HCI
command timeout, the HCI core is supposed to retry sending of the command,
here nothing happened between [28.13] and [36.32]....

Could you please try to load hci_uart.ko manually after boot to see if it could
be related to some init timings/concurrency.
