Hi, here is v3 of this series. It's largely the same as before, but I adjusted 'tty: xuartps: Don't consider circular buffer when enabling transmitter' according to Peter's suggestions.In reviewing this series, I thought the _OFFSET suffix for every register address to be excessive. I would refactor all that out; IOW, - isrstatus = readl(port->membase + CDNS_UART_ISR_OFFSET); + isrstatus = readl(port->membase + CDNS_UART_ISR);
I'll add that as a patch on top of everything.

I also spent some time trying to get Peter's test for flow control and xchar running. The xchar thing fails and will need some more work, but I think in general it should be possible to get it to work. The flow control test passes: root at Xilinx-ZC1751-DC1:~# ./flow /dev/ttyPS0 Test flow control on /dev/ttyPS0 begin test1 patterns sent: 223 recvd: 208 read distribution: 1 = 0 2+ = 0 4+ = 0 8+ = 0 16+ = 0 32+ = 643 64+ = 0 128+ = 0 256+ = 0 512+ = 0 PASSEDThis distribution looks like this exactly because the xchar test is failing. IOW, this driver isn't performing soft flow control (^S,^Q) like it should.
I tried to the your xchar test working, but so far that failed. I'll try to spend some more time on this. Thanks, S?ren
