Well, it looks a bit weird, because we use 16-bit accesses for other values, and there isn't a UPIO_MEM16 type.
Fair enough, but I don't think it's that weird that the absence of UPIO_MEM32 means that we can use non-32-bit accessors.
Although that could be added, it's extending the scope of the patch to touching core files.
How is it touching core files? Granted, we might still need access_32b in vendor_data, but not for SBSA, since SBSA already has a mechanism to determine what 32-bit is needed or not. Then in pl011_probe(), just have: uap->port.iotype = vendor->access_32b ? UPIO_MEM32 : 0; For sbsa_uart_probe(), we would just the set that field if we detect subtype 13 debug port. That depends on Leif Lindholm's patches: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/9/8/287 This also has the advantage of being able to use the existing "mmio32" option to earlycon, as I have in my other patch: static void pl011_putc(struct uart_port *port, int c) { while (readl(port->membase + UART01x_FR) & UART01x_FR_TXFF) ; - writeb(c, port->membase + REG_DR); + if (port->iotype == UPIO_MEM32) + writel(c, port->membase + UART01x_DR); + else + writeb(c, port->membase + UART01x_DR); while (readl(port->membase + UART01x_FR) & UART01x_FR_BUSY) ; } -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc.
