hw-assisted flow control support was added to the serial core
in v3.8 with commits,
dba05832cb ("SERIAL: core: add hardware assisted h/w flow control support")
2cbacafd7a ("SERIAL: core: add hardware assisted s/w flow control support")
9aba8d5b01 ("SERIAL: core: add throttle/unthrottle callbacks for hardware
assisted flow control")
Since then, additional requirements for serial core support have arisen.
Specifically,
1. Separate tx and rx flow control settings for UARTs which only support
tx flow control (ie., autoCTS).
2. Disable sw-assisted CTS flow control in autoCTS mode
3. Support for RTS flow control by serial core and userspace in autoRTS mode
Distinguish mode from capability; introduce UPSTAT_AUTORTS, UPSTAT_AUTOCTS
and UPSTAT_AUTOXOFF which, when set by the uart driver, enable serial core
support for hw-assisted rx, hw-assisted tx and hw-assisted in-band/IXOFF
rx flow control, respectively. [Note: hw-assisted in-band/IXON tx flow
control does not require serial core support/intervention and can be
enabled by the uart driver when required.]
These modes must be set/reset in the driver's set_termios() method, based
on termios settings, and thus can be safely queried in any context in which
one of the port lock, port mutex or termios rwsem are held. Set these modes
in the 2 in-tree drivers, omap-serial and 8250_omap, which currently
use UPF_HARD_FLOW/UPF_SOFT_FLOW support.
Retain UPF_HARD_FLOW and UPF_SOFT_FLOW as capabilities; re-define
UPF_HARD_FLOW as both UPF_AUTO_RTS and UPF_AUTO_CTS to allow for distinct
and separate rx and tx flow control capabilities.
Disable sw-assisted CTS flow control when UPSTAT_AUTOCTS is enabled.

The OMAP3 UART ignores MCR[1] (ie., UART_MCR_RTS) when in autoRTS
mode (UPF_HARD_FLOW + CRTSCTS). This makes it impossible for either
the serial core or userspace to manually flow control the sender.
Disable autoRTS mode when RTS is lowered and restore the previous
mode when RTS is raised.
Note that the OMAP3 UART provides no mechanism for switching from
autoRTS mode without corrupting incoming data; to access the
necessary register, the line control settings must be set to 8-e-2
and thus any data received during that time will be interpreted with
those settings. This corruption has been observed in practice.

Since most drivers interpret UPIO_MEM32 to mean "little-endian" and use
readl/writel to access the registers, add a parallel UPIO_MEM32BE to
request the use of big-endian MMIO accessors (ioread32be/iowrite32be).

The following drivers: 8250_core, atmel_serial, max310x, mcf, omap-serial
and sci16is7xx implement code to handle RS485 ioctls.
In order to avoid code duplication, we implement a simple ioctl handler
on the serial_core layer.
This handler can be used by all the other drivers instead of duplicating
code.
Until this is the only RS485 ioctl handler, it will try first the
rs485_config callback and if it is not present it will call the driver
specific ioctl.

UART drivers which enable modem status interrupts when switching
to N_PPS line discipline need to determine if modem status
interrupts should be disabled when switching from N_PPS.
Specifically, the set_ldisc() notification needs to evaluate
UART_ENABLE_MS() which requires termios->c_cflag.

The userspace-defined ASYNC_* flags in include/uapi/linux/tty_flags.h
are the authoritative bit definitions for the serial_struct flags,
and thus for any derivative values or fields.
Although the serial core provides the TIOCSSERIAL and TIOCGSERIAL
ioctls to set and retrieve these flags from userspace, it defines these
bits independently, as UPF_* macros.
Define the UPF_* macros which are userspace-modifiable directly from
the ASYNC_* symbolic constants. Add compile-time test to ensure the
bits changeable by TIOCSSERIAL match the defined range in the uapi
header.
Add ASYNCB_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER to the uapi header since this bit is
programmable by userspace.

Fix implicit conversion to integer return type from uart_cts_enabled()

The OMAP UART provides support for HW assisted flow control. What is
missing is the support to throttle / unthrottle callbacks which are used
by the omap-serial driver at the moment.
This patch adds the callbacks. It should be safe to add them since they
are only invoked from the serial_core (uart_throttle()) if the feature
flags are set.

tty->hw_stopped is not used by the tty core and is thread-unsafe;
hw_stopped is a member of a bitfield whose fields are updated
non-atomically and no lock is suitable for serializing updates.
Replace serial core usage of tty->hw_stopped with uport->hw_stopped.
Use int storage which works around Alpha EV4/5 non-atomic byte storage,
since uart_port uses different locks to protect certain fields within the

The serial core uses the tty port flags, ASYNC_CTS_FLOW and
ASYNC_CD_CHECK, to track whether CTS and DCD changes should be
ignored or handled. However, the tty port flags are not safe for
atomic bit operations and no lock provides serialized updates.
Introduce the struct uart_port status field to track CTS and DCD
enable states, and serialize access with uart port lock. Substitute
uart_cts_enabled() helper for tty_port_cts_enabled().

This deletes the .set_wake() callback in the struct uart_ops.
Apparently this has been unused since pre-git times. In the
old-2.6-bkcvs it is deleted as part of a changeset removing
the PM_SET_WAKEUP from pm_request_t which is since also deleted
from the kernel.
The apropriate way to set wakeups in the kernel is to have a
code snippet like this in .suspend() or .runtime_suspend()
callbacks:
static int foo_suspend(struct device *dev)
{
if (device_may_wakeup(dev)) {
/* Enable wakeups, set internal states */
}
}
This specific callback is not coming back.

The PPS (Pulse-Per-Second) line discipline has developed a number of
unhealthy attachments to core tty data and functions, ultimately leading
to its breakage.
The previous patches fixed the crashing. This one reduces coupling further
by eliminating the timestamp parameter from the dcd_change ldisc method.
This reduces header file linkage and makes the extension more generic,
and the timestamp read is delayed only slightly, from just before the
ldisc->ops->dcd_change method call to just after.
