Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 5/8] serial: 8250: Add serial8250_handle_irq_locked()
Date: Sun, 10 May 2026 16:40:08 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260510134011.618215-6-ionut.nechita@windriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260510134011.618215-1-ionut.nechita@windriver.com>

From: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>

commit 8324a54f604da18f21070702a8ad82ab2062787b upstream.

8250_port exports serial8250_handle_irq() to HW specific 8250 drivers.
It takes port's lock within but a HW specific 8250 driver may want to
take port's lock itself, do something, and then call the generic
handler in 8250_port but to do that, the caller has to release port's
lock for no good reason.

Introduce serial8250_handle_irq_locked() which a HW specific driver can
call while already holding port's lock.

As this is new export, put it straight into a namespace (where all 8250
exports should eventually be moved).

[Ionut: adapt to 6.12.y -
 - replace guard(uart_port_lock_irqsave)(port) in
   serial8250_handle_irq() with explicit uart_port_lock_irqsave/
   unlock_irqrestore; the cleanup-based uart_port_lock_irqsave
   guard class is not present in 6.12.y;
 - use the bare-identifier form EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(...,
   SERIAL_8250) rather than the string form ("SERIAL_8250");
   in 6.12.y the macro stringifies the namespace argument via
   __stringify(ns), so it must be an unquoted identifier.]
