Il giorno 29 gen 2021, alle ore 00:37, Eric Tremblay [off-list ref] ha scritto: The series is mainly about the support of 8250 UART without TEMT interrupt. I saw that there was some development in the past but it was never merged. Since the last discussion were quite some time ago, I was not sure if I should post a v4 over the last v3 or start from scratch so I decided to post a new patch. Please advice if I should have done the reverse.Please keep my and Heiko’s SoB and add your SoB too describing between [ ] what Heiko has done and what you’ve done. For example: SoB: Giulio SoB: Heiko [Heiko: ...] SoB Eric [Eric: improved timeout etc.]
I will add them in the next version, thanks for mentioning it.

The approach is a little different from the last proposed patch which was doing using a polling at 100us. I tought that it could be really long on some fast baudrate and really not that long on slow baudrate. The current approach is to calculate the time of a bytes when the settings are changed. When we get the interrupt for the empty FIFO, it's the longer it can take to empty the shift register.Good idea.quoted
The other two patches are to use that features with the PORT_16550A_FSL64 found on some chip like the LS1043A.Do you mind to add my 8250_dw patch that was originally part of this patchset? I had to send it soon, you’ve preceded me :-)
I think there was still a comment pending on that patch. I think you should resubmit since I think it's a bit out-of-scope for me.
Thank you Best regards Giulioquoted
