[PATCH 0/4] serial: Patches for OCTEON CPU support (version 2).

[PATCH 0/4] serial: Patches for OCTEON CPU support (version 2).

[David Daney]

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.

[PATCH 1/4] 8250: Don't clobber spinlocks.

[David Daney]

In serial8250_isa_init_ports(), the port's lock is initialized.  We
should not overwrite it.  In early_serial_setup(), only copy in the
fields we need.  Since the early console code only uses a subset of
the fields, these are sufficient.

[PATCH 2/4] 8250: Serial driver changes to support future Cavium OCTEON serial patches.

[David Daney]

In order to use Cavium OCTEON specific serial i/o drivers, we first
patch the 8250 driver to use replaceable I/O functions.  Compatible
I/O functions are added for existing iotypeS.

An added benefit of this change is that it makes it easy to factor
some of the existing special cases out to board/SOC specific support
code.

The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific
iotype code and bug work-arounds.

[PATCH 3/4] Serial: Allow port type to be specified when calling serial8250_register_port.

[David Daney]

Add flag value UPF_FIXED_TYPE which specifies that the UART type is
known and should not be probed.  For this case the UARTs properties
are just copied out of the uart_config entry.

This allows us to keep SOC specific 8250 probe code out of 8250.c.  In
this case we know the serial hardware will not be changing as it is on
the same silicon as the CPU, and we can specify it with certainty in
the board/cpu setup code.

The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific
special cases in the probing code.

[PATCH 4/4] Serial: UART driver changes for Cavium OCTEON.

[David Daney]

Cavium UART implementation is not covered by existing uart_configS.
Define a new uart_config (PORT_OCTEON) which is specified by OCTEON
platform device registration code.

You seem to drop the assignment of port.ops ?

The port.ops are initialized in the preceding call to 
serial8250_isa_init_ports(), we don't have to set it again as we are no 
longer clobbering it with a full structure assignment.

Perhaps the patch commentary should be adjusted to mention this.
