UART011_CR_RXE is set in pl011_startup() during normal initialization, and
cleared by pl011_disable_uart() during port shutdown.
You can use a none-console port in poll mode like kgdboc does with
tty_find_polling_driver() after a port shutdown. But pl011_startup() is not
called in tty_find_polling_driver(). So you need to set UART011_CR_RXE to
reenable receive function.
Not sure setting UART011_CR_RXE in pl011_set_termios() is a good idea
through.

In RS485 mode the transmission of a high priority character fails since it
is written to the data register before the transmitter is enabled. Fix this
in pl011_tx_chars() by enabling RS485 transmission before writing the

Chapter "B Generic UART" in "ARM Server Base System Architecture" [1]
documentation describes a generic UART interface. Such generic UART
does not support DMA. In current code, sbsa_uart_pops and
amba_pl011_pops share the same stop_rx operation, which will invoke
pl011_dma_rx_stop, leading to an access of the DMACR register. This
commit adds a using_rx_dma check in pl011_dma_rx_stop to avoid the
access to DMACR register for SBSA UARTs which does not support DMA.
When the kernel enables DMA engine with "CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=y", Linux
SBSA PL011 driver will access PL011 DMACR register in some functions.
For most real SBSA Pl011 hardware implementations, the DMACR write
behaviour will be ignored. So these DMACR operations will not cause
obvious problems. But for some virtual SBSA PL011 hardware, like Xen
virtual SBSA PL011 (vpl011) device, the behaviour might be different.
Xen vpl011 emulation will inject a data abort to guest, when guest is
accessing an unimplemented UART register. As Xen VPL011 is SBSA
compatible, it will not implement DMACR register. So when Linux SBSA
PL011 driver access DMACR register, it will get an unhandled data abort
fault and the application will get a segmentation fault:

The current timeout for draining the tx fifo in RS485 mode is calculated by
multiplying the time it takes to transmit one character (with the given
baud rate) with the maximal number of characters in the tx queue.
This timeout is too short for two reasons:
First when calculating the time to transmit one character integer division
is used which may round down the result in case of a remainder of the
division.
Fix this by rounding up the division result.
Second the hardware may need additional time (e.g for first putting the
characters from the fifo into the shift register) before the characters are
actually put onto the wire.
To be on the safe side double the current maximum number of iterations
that are used to wait for the queue draining.

In uart_set_rs485_config() the serial core already
- ensures that only one of both options RTS on send or RTS after send is
set
- nullifies the padding field of the passed serial_rs485 struct
- clamps the RTS delays
- assigns the passed serial_rs485 struct to the uart port

Currently, uart_console_write->putchar's second parameter (the
character) is of type int. It makes little sense, provided uart_console_write()
accepts the input string as "const char *s" and passes its content -- the
characters -- to putchar(). So switch the character's type to unsigned
char.
We don't use char as that is signed on some platforms. That would cause
troubles for drivers which (implicitly) cast the char to u16 when
writing to the device. Sign extension would happen in that case and the
value written would be completely different to the provided char. DZ is
an example of such a driver -- on MIPS, it uses u16 for dz_out in
dz_console_putchar().
Note we do the char -> uchar conversion implicitly in
uart_console_write(). Provided we do not change size of the data type,
sign extension does not happen there, so the problem is void.
This makes the types consistent and unified with the rest of the uart
layer, which uses unsigned char in most places already. One exception is
xmit_buf, but that is going to be converted later.

RTS polarity of rs485-enabled ports is currently initialized on uart
open via:
tty_port_open()
tty_port_block_til_ready()
tty_port_raise_dtr_rts() # if (C_BAUD(tty))
uart_dtr_rts()
uart_port_dtr_rts()
There's at least three problems here:
First, if no baud rate is set, RTS polarity is not initialized.
That's the right thing to do for rs232, but not for rs485, which
requires that RTS is deasserted unconditionally.
Second, if the DeviceTree property "linux,rs485-enabled-at-boot-time" is
present, RTS should be deasserted as early as possible, i.e. on probe.
Otherwise it may remain asserted until first open.
Third, even though RTS is deasserted on open and close, it may
subsequently be asserted by uart_throttle(), uart_unthrottle() or
uart_set_termios() because those functions aren't rs485-aware.
(Only uart_tiocmset() is.)
To address these issues, move RTS initialization from uart_port_dtr_rts()
to uart_configure_port(). Prevent subsequent modification of RTS
polarity by moving the existing rs485 check from uart_tiocmget() to
uart_update_mctrl().
That way, RTS is initialized on probe and then remains unmodified unless
the uart transmits data. If rs485 is enabled at runtime (instead of at
boot) through a TIOCSRS485 ioctl(), RTS is initialized by the uart
driver's ->rs485_config() callback and then likewise remains unmodified.
The PL011 driver initializes RTS on uart open and prevents subsequent
modification in its ->set_mctrl() callback. That code is obsoleted by
the present commit, so drop it.

Commit d8d8ffa477 ("amba-pl011: do not disable RTS during shutdown")
amended the PL011 serial driver to leave DTR/RTS polarity untouched on
tty close. That change made sense.
But the commit also added code to save DTR/RTS state to an internal
variable on tty close and restore it on tty open. That part of the
commit makes less sense: The driver has no ->pm() callback, so the uart
remains powered after tty close and automatically preserves register
state, including DTR/RTS.
Saving and restoring registers isn't the job of the ->startup() and
->shutdown() callbacks anyway. Rather, it should happen in ->pm().
Additionally, after pl011_startup() restores the state, the serial core
overrides it in uart_port_dtr_rts() if a baud rate has been set:
tty_port_open()
uart_port_activate()
uart_startup()
uart_port_startup()
pl011_startup() # restores DTR/RTS from uap->old_cr
tty_port_block_til_ready()
tty_port_raise_dtr_rts # if (C_BAUD(tty))
uart_dtr_rts()
uart_port_dtr_rts() # raises DTR/RTS
The serial core also overrides DTR/RTS on tty close in uart_shutdown()
if C_HUPCL(tty) is set. So a user-defined DTR/RTS polarity won't
survive a close/open cycle anyway, unless the user has set the baud rate
to zero and disabled hupcl on the tty.
Bottom line is, the code to save and restore DTR/RTS has no effect.
Remove it.

pl011_set_termios() briefly resets the CR register to zero, thereby
glitching DTR/RTS signals. With rs485 this may result in the bus being
occupied for no reason.
Where does this register write originate from?
The PL011 driver was forked from the PL010 driver in 2004:
https://git.kernel.org/history/history/c/157c0342e591
Until this commit, the PL010 driver's IRQ handler ambauart_int()
modified the CR register without holding the port spinlock.
ambauart_set_termios() also modified that register. To prevent
concurrent read-modify-writes by the IRQ handler and to prevent
transmission while changing baudrate, ambauart_set_termios() had to
disable interrupts. On the PL010, that is achieved by writing zero to
the CR register.
However, on the PL011, interrupts are disabled in the IMSC register,
not in the CR register.
Additionally, the commit amended both the PL010 and PL011 driver to
acquire the port spinlock in the IRQ handler, obviating the need to
disable interrupts in ->set_termios().
So the CR register write is obsolete for two reasons. Drop it.

With commit 3873e2d7f6 ("drivers: PL011: refactor pl011_probe()") the
function devm_ioremap() called from pl011_setup_port() was replaced with
devm_ioremap_resource(). Since this function not only remaps but also
requests the ports io memory region it now collides with the .config_port()
callback which requests the same region at uart port registration.
Since devm_ioremap_resource() already claims the memory successfully, the
request in .config_port() fails.
Later at uart port deregistration the attempt to release the unclaimed
memory also fails. The failure results in a “Trying to free nonexistent
resource" warning.
Fix these issues by removing the callbacks that implement the redundant
memory allocation/release. Also make sure that changing the drivers io
memory base address via TIOCSSERIAL is not allowed any more.

In order to make pl011 work better, multiple interrupts are
required, such as TXIM, RXIM, RTIM, error interrupt(FE/PE/BE/OE);
at the same time, pl011 to GIC does not merge the interrupt
lines(each serial-interrupt corresponding to different GIC hardware
interrupt), so need to enable and request multiple gic interrupt
numbers in the driver.

Commit ead76f329f ("ARM: 6763/1: pl011: add optional RX DMA to PL011
v2") added RX DMA support and also reproduced the workaround for the
infamous low_latency behaviour of tty_flip_buffer_push() by dropping and
reacquiring the port lock during receive processing.
Since commit a9c3f68f3c ("tty: Fix low_latency BUG"),
tty_flip_buffer_push() always schedules a work item to push data to the
line discipline and there's no need to keep any low_latency hacks around.
Note that the port lock is also dropped in the PIO path
(see pl011_rx_chars), but it is not clear whether this is still needed
by the DMA code added by the aforementioned commit.

All amba drivers return 0 in their remove callback. Together with the
driver core ignoring the return value anyhow, it doesn't make sense to
return a value here.
Change the remove prototype to return void, which makes it explicit that
returning an error value doesn't work as expected. This simplifies changing
the core remove callback to return void, too.

Issuing a magic-sysrq via the PL011 causes the following lockdep splat,

The issue being that CPU0 takes 'port_lock' on the irq path in pl011_int()
before taking 'console_owner' on the printk() path, whereas CPU1 takes
the two locks in the opposite order on the printk() path due to setting
the "console_owner" prior to calling into into the actual console driver.
Fix this in the same way as the msm-serial driver by dropping 'port_lock'
before handling the sysrq.

If probing of a pl011 gets deferred until after free_initmem(), an oops
ensues because pl011_console_match() is called which has been freed.
Fix by removing the __init attribute from the function and those it
calls.
Commit 10879ae5f1 ("serial: pl011: add console matching function")
introduced pl011_console_match() not just for early consoles but
regular preferred consoles, such as those added by acpi_parse_spcr().
Regular consoles may be registered after free_initmem() for various
reasons, one being deferred probing, another being dynamic enablement
of serial ports using a DeviceTree overlay.
Thus, pl011_console_match() must not be declared __init and the
functions it calls mustn't either.

pl011_probe() calls pl011_setup_port() to reserve an amba_ports[] entry,
then calls pl011_register_port() to register the uart driver with the
tty layer.
If registration of the uart driver fails, the amba_ports[] entry is not
released. If this happens 14 times (value of UART_NR macro), then all
amba_ports[] entries will have been leaked and driver probing is no
longer possible. (To be fair, that can only happen if the DeviceTree
doesn't contain alias IDs since they cause the same entry to be used for
a given port.) Fix it.

Which seems to be due to the fact that after allocating the uap
structure, nothing initializes the spinlock.
Its a little confusing, as uart_port_spin_lock_init() is one
place where the lock is supposed to be initialized, but it has
an exception for the case where the port is a console.
This makes it seem like a deeper fix is needed to properly
register the console, but I'm not sure what that entails, and
Andy suggested that this approach is less invasive.
Thus, this patch resolves the issue by initializing the spinlock
in the driver, and resolves the resulting warning.

PL011's ->flush_buffer() implementation releases and reacquires the port
lock. Due to a race condition here, data can end up being added to the
circular buffer but neither being discarded nor being sent out. This
leads to, for example, tcdrain(2) waiting indefinitely.
Process A Process B
uart_flush_buffer()
- acquire lock
- circ_clear
- pl011_flush_buffer()
-- release lock
-- dmaengine_terminate_all()
uart_write()
- acquire lock
- add chars to circ buffer
- start_tx()
-- start DMA
- release lock
-- acquire lock
-- turn off DMA
-- release lock
// Data in circ buffer but DMA is off
According to the comment in the code, the releasing of the lock around
dmaengine_terminate_all() is to avoid a deadlock with the DMA engine
callback. However, since the time this code was written, the DMA engine
API documentation seems to have been clarified to say that
dmaengine_terminate_all() (in the identically implemented but
differently named dmaengine_terminate_async() variant) does not wait for
any running complete callback to be completed and can even be called
from a complete callback. So there is no possibility of deadlock if the
DMA engine driver implements this API correctly.
So we should be able to just remove this release and reacquire of the
lock to prevent the aforementioned race condition.

Commit 9b96fbacda ("serial: PL011: clear pending interrupts")
clears the RX and receive timeout interrupts on pl011 startup, to
avoid a screaming-interrupt scenario that can occur when the
firmware or bootloader leaves these interrupts asserted.
This has been noted as an issue when running Linux on qemu [1].
Unfortunately, the above fix seems to lead to potential
misbehaviour if the RX FIFO interrupt is asserted _non_ spuriously
on driver startup, if the RX FIFO is also already full to the
trigger level.
Clearing the RX FIFO interrupt does not change the FIFO fill level.
In this scenario, because the interrupt is now clear and because
the FIFO is already full to the trigger level, no new assertion of
the RX FIFO interrupt can occur unless the FIFO is drained back
below the trigger level. This never occurs because the pl011
driver is waiting for an RX FIFO interrupt to tell it that there is
something to read, and does not read the FIFO at all until that
interrupt occurs.
Thus, simply clearing "spurious" interrupts on startup may be
misguided, since there is no way to be sure that the interrupts are
truly spurious, and things can go wrong if they are not.
This patch instead clears the interrupt condition by draining the
RX FIFO during UART startup, after clearing any potentially
spurious interrupt. This should ensure that an interrupt will
definitely be asserted if the RX FIFO subsequently becomes
sufficiently full.
The drain is done at the point of enabling interrupts only. This
means that it will occur any time the UART is newly opened through
the tty layer. It will not apply to polled-mode use of the UART by
kgdboc: since that scenario cannot use interrupts by design, this
should not matter. kgdboc will interact badly with "normal" use of
the UART in any case: this patch makes no attempt to paper over
such issues.
This patch does not attempt to address the case where the RX FIFO
fills faster than it can be drained: that is a pathological
hardware design problem that is beyond the scope of the driver to
work around. As a failsafe, the number of poll iterations for
draining the FIFO is limited to twice the FIFO size. This will
ensure that the kernel at least boots even if it is impossible to
drain the FIFO for some reason.
