Serial: allow port drivers to have a default attribute group

2014-07-18T01:21:21Z

Some serial drivers (like 8250), want to add sysfs files. We need to do so in a race-free way, so allow any port to be able to specify an attribute group that should be added at device creation time.

serial: earlycon: add DT support

2014-05-20T20:19:25Z

This adds the infrastructure to generic earlycon for earlycon setup using DT. The actual setup is not enabled until a following commit to add the FDT parsing. Signed-off-by: Rob Herring Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman Cc: Jiri Slaby Cc: Arnd Bergmann Acked-by: Grant Likely

tty/serial: add generic serial earlycon

2014-04-24T23:32:27Z

This introduces generic earlycon infrastructure for serial devices based on the 8250 earlycon. This allows for supporting earlycon option with other serial devices. The earlycon output is enabled at the time early_params are processed. Only architectures that have fixmap support or have functional ioremap when early_params are processed are supported. This is the same restriction that the 8250 driver had. Signed-off-by: Rob Herring Cc: Jiri Slaby Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

serial: core: delete .set_wake() callback

2013-10-16T20:16:19Z

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.

serial: Move "uart_console" def to core header file.

2013-05-20T18:47:21Z

Move "uart_console" definition to serial core header file, so that it can be used by serial drivers. Get rid of the uart_console defintion from mpc52xx_uart driver.

pps: Move timestamp read into PPS code proper

2013-02-13T18:13:58Z

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.

serial: ralink: adds support for the serial core found on ralink wisoc

2013-01-30T05:15:34Z

The MIPS based Ralink WiSoC platform has 1 or more 8250 compatible serial cores. To make them work we require the same quirks that are used by AU1x00. Signed-off-by: John Crispin Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

serial: Remove RM9000 series serial driver.

2013-01-16T05:54:41Z

Now that support for RM9000 and platforms based on it has been removed, remove the serial driver for it as well. It's really only been a quirk for an almost 8250 compatible UART anyway.

tty: serial core: decouple pm states from ACPI

2013-01-16T05:52:23Z

The serial core is using power states lifted from ACPI for no good reason.
