Subject: ar71xx: make bootconsole wait for both THRE and TEMT
|
||
|
|

Original commit message:

|
|
||
|
MIPS: ath79: make bootconsole wait for both THRE and TEMT
|
||
|
|
||
|
This makes the ath79 bootconsole behave the same way as the generic 8250
|
||
|
bootconsole.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Also waiting for TEMT (transmit buffer is empty) instead of just THRE
|
||
|
(transmit buffer is not full) ensures that all characters have been
|
||
|
transmitted before the real serial driver starts reconfiguring the serial
|
||
|
controller (which would sometimes result in garbage being transmitted.)
|
||
|
This change does not cause a visible performance loss.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In addition, this seems to fix a hang observed in certain configurations on
|
||
|
many AR7xxx/AR9xxx SoCs during autoconfig of the real serial driver.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A more complete follow-up patch will disable 8250 autoconfig for ath79
|
||
|
altogether (the serial controller is detected as a 16550A, which is not
|
||
|
fully compatible with the ath79 serial, and the autoconfig may lead to
|
||
|
undefined behavior on ath79.)
