This patchset adds RS-485 9th bit addressing mode support to the DW
UART driver and the necessary serial core bits to handle it. The
addressing mode is configured through .rs485_config() as was requested
during the review of the earlier versions. The line configuration
related ADDRB is still kept in ktermios->c_cflag to be able to take
account the extra addressing bit while calculating timing, etc. but it
is set/cleared by .rs485_config().
PLEASE CHECK that the serial_rs485 .padding change looks OK (mainly
that it won't add hole under some odd condition which would alter
serial_rs485's sizeof)!

v6 -> v7:
- Fixed typos in documentation & comment
- Changes lsr typing from unsigned int to u16
v5 -> v6:
- Reorder remaining patches
- LSR changes are simpler due to helper added by LSR fix series
- Depend on rs485_struct sanitization on catching much of invalid config
- In order to be able to alter ADDRB in termios .c_cflag within
.rs485_config(), take termios_rwsem and pass ktermios to it.
- Moved addressing mode setup entirely into .rs485_config()
- Use ndelay() instead of udelay() (uart_port->frame_time is in nsecs)

Add support for RS-485 multipoint addressing using 9th bit [*]. The
addressing mode is configured through .rs485_config().
ADDRB in termios indicates 9th bit addressing mode is enabled. In this
mode, 9th bit is used to indicate an address (byte) within the
communication line. ADDRB can only be enabled/disabled through
.rs485_config() that is also responsible for setting the destination and
receiver (filter) addresses.
[*] Technically, RS485 is just an electronic spec and does not itself
specify the 9th bit addressing mode but 9th bit seems at least
"semi-standard" way to do addressing with RS485.

+5. Multipoint Addressing
+========================
+
+ The Linux kernel provides addressing mode for multipoint RS-485 serial
+ communications line. The addressing mode is enabled with SER_RS485_ADDRB
+ flag in serial_rs485. Struct serial_rs485 has two additional flags and
+ fields for enabling receive and destination addresses.
+
+ Address mode flags:
+ - SER_RS485_ADDRB: Enabled addressing mode (sets also ADDRB in termios).
+ - SER_RS485_ADDR_RECV: Receive (filter) address enabled.
+ - SER_RS485_ADDR_DEST: Set destination address.
+
+ Address fields (enabled with corresponding SER_RS485_ADDR_* flag):
+ - addr_recv: Receive address.
+ - addr_dest: Destination address.
+
+ Once a receive address is set, the communication can occur only with the
+ particular device and other peers are filtered out. It is left up to the
+ receiver side to enforce the filtering. Receive address will be cleared
+ if SER_RS485_ADDR_RECV is not set.
+
+ Note: not all devices supporting RS485 support multipoint addressing.

I'm not sure it's an equivalent. I would leave u32 members untouched, so
something like
__u8 addr_recv;
__u8 addr_dest;
__u8 padding0[2]; /* Memory is cheap, new structs
__u32 padding1[4]; * are a royal PITA .. */
And repeating about `pahole` tool which may be useful here to check for ABI
potential changes.

Ok, although the toolchain I use didn't support preserving --- content
so I had to create hack to preserve them, hopefully nothing backfires due
to the hack. :-)

I cannot take __u32 padding[] away like that, this is an uapi header. Or
do you mean I should create anonymous union? ...I'm skeptical that can be
pulled off w/o breaking user-space compile in some circumstances. Anon
unions were only introduced by C11 but is it ok to rely on C11 in uapi/
headers?
Even making padding smaller has some unwanted consequences if somebody is
clearing just .padding. In retrospect, having padding as a direct member
doesn't seem a good idea. That padding[5] should have been within an union
right from the start to make this easily extendable.
Maybe create a copy of that struct under another name which is just equal
sized, that would give more freedom on member naming. But can I change
ioctl's param type to another struct (in _IOR/_IOWR) w/o breaking
something?

Yeah, but it's padding after all. I would personally break it for
example as Andy suggests (if pahole shows no differences in size on both
32/64 bit) and wait if something breaks. To be honest, I'd not expect
anyone to touch it. And if someone does, we would fix it somehow and
they should too...

I realized there are plenty of anonymous unions already in include/uapi/
so I think I can keep padding[5] too:
union {
/* v1 */
__u32 padding[5]; /* Memory is cheap, new structs are a pain */
/* v2 (adds addressing mode fields) */
struct {
__u8 addr_recv;
__u8 addr_dest;
__u8 padding0[2];
__u32 padding1[4];
};
};
I'll just skip manual pahole step and add a few BUILD_BUG_ON()s and use
our build bot to do a quick check over all archs it builds for, that gives
much better confidence on it being ok:
BUILD_BUG_ON(((&rs485.delay_rts_after_send) + 1) != &rs485.padding[0]);
BUILD_BUG_ON(&rs485.padding[1] != &rs485.padding1[0]);
BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(rs485) != ((u8 *)(&rs485.padding[4]) - ((u8 *)&rs485.flags) + sizeof(__u32)));
