Subject: [PATCH REPOST] tty: serial: 8250: omap: restore registers on shutdown
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2016 17:28:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87vb6llgst.fsf@linutronix.de> (raw)
If DMA is active during a shutdown, a delayed restore of the
registers may be pending. The restore must be performed after
the DMA is stopped, otherwise the delayed restore remains
pending and will fire upon the first DMA TX complete of a
totally different serial session.

This patch was originally posted and discussed here:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/87egjp2r4a.fsf@linutronix.de
The patch was not accepted because Peter expressed dissatisfaction with
the entire deferred implementation. (This patch fixes a bug in that
implementation.) However, no alternative solution was determined and the
bug continues to exist.
Although we can certainly continue to debate about an alternate solution
to the deferred implementation, I think it makes sense to at least fix
the existing bug until an alternative exists.
The bug can be easily produced with a `kill -9` on a process transmitting
on the serial port.
