Currently, since Aspeed also has a similar driver, there is some code with identical structures on both sides, but a common framework is lacking. Therefore, this series introduces a generic UART routing framework. It also moves aspeed-uart-routing.c under this generic framework and makes it use the interfaces provided by the generic framework. At the same time, StarFive also registers its own driver based on this generic framework. StarFive JHB100 UART Routing allows dynamic routing of inputs between built-in UARTs and physical serial I/O ports, enabling use cases such as Host <-> BMC communication via UARTs. This series has been tested on the EVB1 board. changes since v2: PATCH 2: - Add a "depends on ARCH_ASPEED || COMPILE_TEST" to the "UART routing drivers" menu. PATCH 3: - Move the binding to bindings/soc/starfive/ and update the $id PATCH 4: - Append the depends on ARCH_STARFIVE to the "UART routing drivers" - Use RST literal blocks instead of backslash-escaped asterisks in the sysfs ABI documentation. - Update the MAINTAINERS entry for binding. v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260905102901.126035-1-changhuang.liang@starfivetech.com/ (local) v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260830065118.51551-1-changhuang.liang@starfivetech.com/ (local) Changhuang Liang (4): uart-routing: Add common UART routing framework soc: aspeed: Move UART routing driver to drivers/uart-routing dt-bindings: soc: starfive: Add StarFive JHB100 UART routing uart-routing: Add UART Routing driver for StarFive JHB100 SoC .../sysfs-driver-starfive-uart-routing | 49 ++ .../soc/starfive/starfive,uart-routing.yaml | 46 ++ Documentation/driver-api/index.rst | 1 + Documentation/driver-api/uart-routing.rst | 145 +++++ MAINTAINERS | 25 + drivers/Kconfig | 2 + drivers/Makefile | 1 + drivers/soc/aspeed/Kconfig | 10 - drivers/soc/aspeed/Makefile | 1 - drivers/soc/aspeed/aspeed-uart-routing.c | 601 ------------------ drivers/uart-routing/Kconfig | 45 ++ drivers/uart-routing/Makefile | 5 + drivers/uart-routing/aspeed-uart-routing.c | 415 ++++++++++++ drivers/uart-routing/starfive-uart-routing.c | 192 ++++++ drivers/uart-routing/uart-routing.c | 200 ++++++ drivers/uart-routing/uart-routing.h | 84 +++ 16 files changed, 1210 insertions(+), 612 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-driver-starfive-uart-routing create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/starfive/starfive,uart-routing.yaml create mode 100644 Documentation/driver-api/uart-routing.rst delete mode 100644 drivers/soc/aspeed/aspeed-uart-routing.c create mode 100644 drivers/uart-routing/Kconfig create mode 100644 drivers/uart-routing/Makefile create mode 100644 drivers/uart-routing/aspeed-uart-routing.c create mode 100644 drivers/uart-routing/starfive-uart-routing.c create mode 100644 drivers/uart-routing/uart-routing.c create mode 100644 drivers/uart-routing/uart-routing.h -- 2.25.1
