Hello again. I've just committed the patch: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=257170 Thanks and best regards Zbigniew Bodek 2013/10/26 Zbigniew Bodek <zbb_at_freebsd.org>: > Hello Everyone, > > I'm attaching the newest version of the ns8250 UART patch. > After some discussions I decided to go with busy-wait + timeout solution. > The applied delay should handle exotic corner cases (please notice > that we can't use ns8250_delay() > to get the actual single transmission time since we know that LCR is locked). > > If there are no objections then I would like to commit this soon. > > Best regards > Zbigniew Bodek > > 2013/10/9 Zbigniew Bodek <zbb_at_freebsd.org>: >> Hello Ganbold. >> >> Thank you for testing the patch and pointing those issue out. >> My detection log from Armada XP: >> >> uart0: <16550 or compatible> mem 0xd0012000-0xd001201f irq 41 on simplebus0 >> uart0: console (115200,n,8,1) >> uart1: <16550 or compatible> mem 0xd0012100-0xd001211f irq 42 on simplebus0 >> uart2: <16550 or compatible> mem 0xd0012200-0xd001221f irq 43 on simplebus0 >> uart3: <16550 or compatible> mem 0xd0012300-0xd001231f irq 44 on simplebus0 >> >> Is there a possibility to download a datasheet for RK30xx so that I could >> verify what is required for it's UART? >> The patch is causing that we only wait until UART is not busy anymore.
