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 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@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. Regards, Peter Hurley
