No need to change CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS, see commit 9d86719f8769 ("serial: 8250: Allow using ports higher than SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS"). The need to increase this value was noticed while working with Toradex Verdin AM62, this board has 4 serial UART instances available to the user plus an internal one that is connected to a Bluetooth module. Without this change the fifth UART connected to the BT module is not instantiated and BT is not working. Instead of increasing the number to the bare minimum (5) that would be required to solve this specific issue, we increase this to 8 which seems a more reasonable number to have in the defconfig and should cover more valid use cases. With this change the kernel image size increases by ~3.2kB. bloat-o-meter summary: add/remove: 1/1 grow/shrink: 7/0 up/down: 3220/-8 (3212) Cc: Tony Lindgren Reviewed-by: Tony Lindgren Signed-off-by: Francesco Dolcini Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231201195732.4931-1-francesco@dolcini.it Signed-off-by: Nishanth Menon --- diff --git a/arch/arm64/configs/defconfig b/arch/arm64/configs/defconfig index 3290312711483..755c9de16fbbe 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/configs/defconfig +++ b/arch/arm64/configs/defconfig @@ -449,6 +449,7 @@ CONFIG_SERIO_AMBAKMI=y CONFIG_LEGACY_PTY_COUNT=16 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=y CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE=y +CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=8 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED=y CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_SHARE_IRQ=y CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_BCM2835AUX=y
