Subject: [PATCH 3.12 32/56] MIPS: ath79: make bootconsole wait for both THRE and TEMT
Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2016 09:30:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b117cd86c74d890bf1e3d7c64c64fdcb61c8ae1d.1465975780.git.jslaby@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <352d108e14e126b7dfb5fbecde3dc78be62a5ce5.1465975780.git.jslaby@suse.cz>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1465975780.git.jslaby@suse.cz>

From: Matthias Schiffer <mschiffer@universe-factory.net>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit f5b556c94c8490d42fea79d7b4ae0ecbc291e69d upstream.

This makes the ath79 bootconsole behave the same way as the generic 8250
bootconsole.

Also waiting for TEMT (transmit buffer is empty) instead of just THRE
(transmit buffer is not full) ensures that all characters have been
transmitted before the real serial driver starts reconfiguring the serial
controller (which would sometimes result in garbage being transmitted.)
This change does not cause a visible performance loss.

In addition, this seems to fix a hang observed in certain configurations on
many AR7xxx/AR9xxx SoCs during autoconfig of the real serial driver.

A more complete follow-up patch will disable 8250 autoconfig for ath79
altogether (the serial controller is detected as a 16550A, which is not
fully compatible with the ath79 serial, and the autoconfig may lead to
undefined behavior on ath79.)
