serial: group all the 8250 related code together

2012-01-24T19:23:59+00:00

The drivers/tty/serial dir is already getting rather busy. Relocate the 8250 related drivers to their own subdir to reduce the clutter. Note that sunsu.c is not included in this move -- it is 8250-like hardware, but it does not use any of the existing infrastructure -- and does not depend on SERIAL_8250.

serial: manually inline serial8250_handle_port

2011-12-10T03:14:13+00:00

Currently serial8250_handle_irq is a trivial wrapper around serial8250_handle_port, which actually does all the work. Since there are no other callers of serial8250_handle_port, we can just move it inline into serial8250_handle_irq. This also makes it more clear what functionality any custom IRQ handlers need to provide if not using serial8250_default_handle_irq.

serial: make 8250 timeout use the specified IRQ handler

2011-12-10T03:14:13+00:00

The current 8250 timeout code duplicates the code path in serial8250_default_handle_irq and then serial8250_handle_irq i.e. reading iir, check for IIR_NO_INT, and then calling serial8250_handle_port. So the immediate thought is to replace the duplicated code with a call to serial8250_default_handle_irq. But this highlights a problem. We let 8250 driver variants use their own IRQ handler via specifying their own custom ->handle_irq, but in the event of a timeout, we ignore their handler and implicitly run serial8250_default_handle_irq instead. So, go through the struct to get ->handle_irq and call that, which for most will still be serial8250_default_handle_irq.

serial: export the key functions for an 8250 IRQ handler

2011-12-10T03:14:13+00:00

For drivers that need to construct their own IRQ handler, the three components are seen in the current handle_port -- i.e. Rx, Tx and modem_status. Make these exported symbols so that "almost" 8250 UARTs can construct their own IRQ handler with these shared components, while working around their own unique errata issues. The function names are given a serial8250 prefix, since they are now entering the global namespace. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

serial: clean up parameter passing for 8250 Rx IRQ handling

2011-12-10T03:14:12+00:00

The receive_chars() was taking a pointer to a passed in LSR value in status and knocking off bits as it processed them. But since receive_chars isn't returning a value, we can instead pass in a normal non-pointer value for LSR, and simply return the residual (unprocessed) LSR once it is done. The value in this cleanup, is that it clarifies the API of the receive_chars prior to exporting it to other 8250-like drivers for shared usage.

serial: move struct uart_8250_port from 8250.c to 8250.h

2011-12-10T03:14:12+00:00

Since we want to promote sharing and move away from one single uart driver with a bunch of platform specific bugfixes all munged into one, relocate some header like material from the C file to the header. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
