From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: David Daney Subject: [PATCH 0/4] serial: Patches for OCTEON CPU support (version 2). Date: Mon, 01 Dec 2008 15:46:22 -0800 Message-ID: <4934774E.6080805@caviumnetworks.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Received: from mail3.caviumnetworks.com ([12.108.191.235]:46768 "EHLO mail3.caviumnetworks.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1751388AbYLAXqm (ORCPT ); Mon, 1 Dec 2008 18:46:42 -0500 Sender: linux-serial-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-serial@vger.kernel.org To: linux-serial@vger.kernel.org, Alan Cox , Andrew Morton Cc: linux-mips The previous patch set was Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton and added to the -mm tree, however comments from Shinya Kuribayashi prompted me to make some improvements. The first three patches are unchanged from the previous set (I hope it is not a breach of etiquette to include them again). The forth which allows uart bug types to be statically specified is completely removed. And the fifth (now forth) is simplified and now only adds a uart type for the OCTEON uart. And as I previously said: Since these are the only non-mips specific patches required for OCTEON cpu support, it is necessary to get these Signed-off-by before the full OCTEON patch set can proceed. Four patches to follow. Thanks, David Daney (4): 8250: Don't clobber spinlocks. 8250: Serial driver changes to support future Cavium OCTEON serial patches. Serial: Allow port type to be specified when calling serial8250_register_port. Serial: UART driver changes for Cavium OCTEON. drivers/serial/8250.c | 225 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- drivers/serial/serial_core.c | 7 +- include/linux/serial_8250.h | 3 + include/linux/serial_core.h | 7 +- 4 files changed, 179 insertions(+), 63 deletions(-)
