[PATCH 0/5] serial, Malta: Fixes to magic multipliers for SMSC Super I/O UARTs

[PATCH 0/5] serial, Malta: Fixes to magic multipliers for SMSC Super I/O UARTs

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Hi,

 I've noticed our Malta platform serial driver does not take advantage of 
support for the special UART divisor values for the bit rates of 230400 
and 460800 bits per second its SMSC FDC37M817 Super I/O hardware provides.  

 Our 8250 core provides for these divisors via the UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER 
flag, so I thought it would be a straightforward platform change, but it 
has turned out that the flag has AFAICT never worked (I wonder how people 
test those things).  The only platform currently in our tree that sets the 
flag uses it for a different purpose.

 I've fixed UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER handling then in our 8250 core, added 
reporting so that people have a chance to know the rates are supported and 
then added the flag to Malta platform initialisers for Super I/O UARTs.  
I have examined YAMON sources to verify that we don't have to enable the 
special UART divisor values ourselves.  See individual change descriptions 
for further details.

 Verified with a WTI CPM-800 site manager device which supports bit rates 
of up to 230400bps.  Also verified at 230400bps and 460800bps with an 
EXSYS EX-44072 option card under Linux, based on the Oxford Semiconductor 
OXPCIe952 device in its native mode; our clock settings are however off 
enough for OxSemi PCIe devices for the former data rate only just working 
and the latter making transmission go out of sync with data corruption 
resulting.  Another patch series to fix OxSemi handling bugs follows then.

 Verification of the OxSemi patch series actually revealed an interesting 
peculiarity of the SMSC Super I/O IC that contradicts SMSC documentation.  
I have added a clarification as 1/5 of this patch series, originally meant 
to contain four patches only.  This has been confirmed both with the Malta 
board concerned here and my old x86 server, which also has a similar SMSC 
Super I/O part, although with high-speed operation not enabled by the 
BIOS.

 NB occasional input overruns were observed at 460800bps (with a MIPS 5Kc 
@160MHz running this Malta), which could be eliminated by lowering the 
`rx_trig_bytes' parameter to 4 from the default of 8 (the UART core in the 
FDC37M817 has a 16-byte FIFO), via sysfs.  Perhaps it would make sense to 
change the default, at least for the higher-speed ports?

 Please apply.

[PATCH 1/5] serial: 8250: Document SMSC Super I/O UART peculiarities

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Contrary to what SMSC documentation says and unlike NS16C550A UARTs the 
SMSC Super I/O IC claims compatibility with the SMSC UART implementation 
does not support dividing the internal PLL clock by any divisor from 1 
to 65535[1], with the exception of two magic divisors of 32769 and 32770 
used respectively to select the high-speed data rates of 460800bps and 
230400bps[2] if enabled on a port-by-port basis in with the Serial Port 
Mode Register in the Device Configuration Space[3][4].

Instead empirical evidence indicates that the divisor, as stored in the 
DLL and DLM register pair, has the range of 1 to 32767 only, and bit 7 
of the DLM register (bit 15 of the divisor) effectively serves as a 
selection bit for the prescaler from the base frequency of 7.3728MHz, 
either 4 if the bit is 0, or 1 if the bit is 1 and high-speed operation 
has been enabled with the Serial Port Mode Register.

So if high-speed operation has not been enabled, then say the values of 
1 and 32769 (0x8001) written into the combined DLL and DLM register pair 
both select the divisor of 1 and the baud rate of 115200bps.

[PATCH 2/5] serial: 8250: Actually allow UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER baud rates

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Support for magic baud rate divisors of 32770 and 32769 used with SMSC 
Super I/O chips for extra baud rates of 230400 and 460800 respectively 
where base rate is 115200[1] has been added around Linux 2.5.64, which 
predates our repo history, but the origin could be identified as commit 
2a717aad772f ("Merge with Linux 2.5.64.") with the old MIPS/Linux repo 
also at: <git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux.git>.

Code that is now in `serial8250_do_get_divisor' was added back then to 
`serial8250_get_divisor', but that code would only ever trigger if one 
of the higher baud rates was actually requested, and that cannot ever 
happen, because the earlier call to `serial8250_get_baud_rate' never 
returns them.  This is because it calls `uart_get_baud_rate' with the 
maximum requested being the base rate, that is clk/16 or 115200 for SMSC 
chips at their nominal clock rate.

Fix it then and allow UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER baud rates to be selected, by 
requesting the maximum baud rate of clk/4 rather than clk/16 if the flag 
has been set.  Also correct the minimum baud rate, observing that these 
ports only support actual (non-magic) divisors of up to 32767 only.

[PATCH 3/5] serial: 8250: Handle custom baud rates in UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER range

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Handle custom baud rates requested in the UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER range 
with BOTHER.  Currently matching is exact, that is if a baud rate that 
is not either of clk/4 or clk/8 is requested, then we fall through to 
the default case, which will just divide the clock rate by 16 times the 
rate requested, round it to closest integer, and possibly yield even 
worse results then if clamping to the extra baud rates was chosen.

So for example if we have the usual base rate of 115200 and request a 
rate of 230399, then the fall-through divisor calculation will yield 1, 
and consequently the baud rate of 115200 will be programmed even though 
obviously the magic rate of 230400 would be more appropriate.

Make the selection of the magic rates range-qualified then and use clk/4 
for rates from clk/6 up (assuming `serial8250_get_baud_rate' has already 
rejected any rates too far beyond clk/4), and otherwise use clk/8 for 
rates from clk/12 up, and finally fall through to the standard divisor 
calculation.  Explicitly void using the undocumented rate of 153600bps 
and stick to documented divisor values only.

[PATCH 4/5] serial: core, 8250: Add a hook for extra port property reporting

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Add a hook for `uart_report_port' to let serial ports report extra 
properties beyond `irq' and `base_baud'.  Use it with the 8250 backend 
to report extra baud rates supported above the base rate for ports with 
the UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER property, so that people have a way to find out 
that they are supported with their system, e.g.:

Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 5 ports, IRQ sharing enabled
printk: console [ttyS0] disabled
serial8250.0: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4, base_baud = 115200 [+230400, 460800]) is a 16550A
printk: console [ttyS0] enabled
printk: console [ttyS0] enabled
printk: bootconsole [uart8250] disabled
printk: bootconsole [uart8250] disabled
serial8250.0: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3, base_baud = 115200 [+230400, 460800]) is a 16550A
serial8250.0: ttyS2 at MMIO 0x1f000900 (irq = 20, base_baud = 230400) is a 16550A

Otherwise there is no clear way to figure this out.

Ick, really?  What relies on this print message?  Why do we need a whole
new uart port hook for this?

Isn't there some other way for your specific variant to print out
another message if you really want to do something "odd" like this?

And you did not document what your new change did anywhere in the tree,
so people are going to be confused.

I've taken the other patches here, but not this one.

thanks,

 As I noted, perhaps too briefly, in the commit description (see the last 
sentence above) people need to be made aware of the extra baud rates above 
`base_baud' supported, or otherwise they'll have no way to figure out they 
can use them.

 Reporting tweaked `base_baud' would I think cause confusion from the 
inconsistency with the TIOCGSERIAL/TIOCSSERIAL ioctls (e.g. `setserial'), 
and the sysfs flags:

$ cat /sys/class/tty/ttyS[0-2]/flags
0x10010040
0x10010040
0x90000040
$ 

(here from a Malta board) are IMO too obscure for anyone to figure this 
out (bit 16 means the two extra baud rates are supported).

 As explained with 1/5 we could set `base_baud' to 460800 instead and 
hardcode bit 15 of the divisor to 1, relying on undocumented Super I/O IC 
behaviour, but that would require more exhaustive verification than I am 
able to do with just a single board and IC type and revision.

 There's always another way. :)  How about?

serial8250.0: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
serial8250.0: ttyS0 extra baud rates supported: 230400, 460800

 We've been somewhat terse about things, but you're probably right here.  
Sorry about that.

 Thanks.  I've posted an alternative printing a message like above, with 
some commentary.  Let me know if that makes you feel more convinced.

[PATCH 5/5] MIPS: Malta: Enable magic multipliers for Super I/O UARTs

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

The SMSC FDC37M817 Super I/O chip has a configuration feature that lets 
it support special UART divisor values of 32770 and 32769 for bit rates 
of 230400 and 460800 bits per second respectively.  Our 8250 driver core 
provides support for these special divisors via the UPF_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER 
flag, and YAMON firmware unconditionally configures the Super I/O chip 
with these divisors enabled as well, so all we need to do in platform 
setup for these bit rates to work is to set the flag.
