TX_EMP tells us when transmit queue is empty therefore all characters were transmitted. TX_RDY tells us when CPU can send a new character. Therefore we need to use different check prior transmitting new character and different check after all characters were sent. This patch splits polling code into two functions: wait_for_xmitr() which waits for TX_RDY and wait_for_xmite() which waits for TX_EMP. When rebooting A3720 platform without this patch on UART is print only: [ 42.699� And with this patch on UART is full output: [ 39.530216] reboot: Restarting system Fixes: c685af1108d7 ("serial: mvebu-uart: fix tx lost characters") Signed-off-by: Pali Rohár Cc: stable Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201223191931.18343-1-pali@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- diff --git a/drivers/tty/serial/mvebu-uart.c b/drivers/tty/serial/mvebu-uart.c index 118b299122898..e0c00a1b07639 100644 --- a/drivers/tty/serial/mvebu-uart.c +++ b/drivers/tty/serial/mvebu-uart.c @@ -648,6 +648,14 @@ static void wait_for_xmitr(struct uart_port *port) (val & STAT_TX_RDY(port)), 1, 10000); } +static void wait_for_xmite(struct uart_port *port) +{ + u32 val; + + readl_poll_timeout_atomic(port->membase + UART_STAT, val, + (val & STAT_TX_EMP), 1, 10000); +} + static void mvebu_uart_console_putchar(struct uart_port *port, int ch) { wait_for_xmitr(port); @@ -675,7 +683,7 @@ static void mvebu_uart_console_write(struct console *co, const char *s, uart_console_write(port, s, count, mvebu_uart_console_putchar); - wait_for_xmitr(port); + wait_for_xmite(port); if (ier) writel(ier, port->membase + UART_CTRL(port));
