- * Revision 1.5  2002/11/14 15:59:49  starvik
- * Linux 2.5 port of the latest serial driver from 2.4. The work queue stuff
- * probably doesn't work yet.
- *
- * Revision 1.42  2002/11/05 09:08:47  johana
- * Better implementation of rs_stop() and rs_start() that uses the XOFF
- * register to start/stop transmission.
- * change_speed() also initilises XOFF register correctly so that
- * auto_xoff is enabled when IXON flag is set by user.
- * This gives fast XOFF response times.
- *
- * Revision 1.41  2002/11/04 18:40:57  johana
- * Implemented rs_stop() and rs_start().
- * Simple tests using hwtestserial indicates that this should be enough
- * to make it work.
- *
- * Revision 1.40  2002/10/14 05:33:18  starvik
- * RS-485 uses fast timers even if SERIAL_FAST_TIMER is disabled
- *
- * Revision 1.39  2002/09/30 21:00:57  johana
- * Support for CONFIG_ETRAX_SERx_DTR_RI_DSR_CD_MIXED where the status and
- * control pins can be mixed between PA and PB.
- * If no serial port uses MIXED old solution is used
- * (saves a few bytes and cycles).
- * control_pins struct uses masks instead of bit numbers.
- * Corrected dummy values and polarity in line_info() so
- * /proc/tty/driver/serial is now correct.
- * (the E100_xxx_GET() macros is really active low - perhaps not obvious)
- *
- * Revision 1.38  2002/08/23 11:01:36  starvik
- * Check that serial port is enabled in all interrupt handlers to avoid
- * restarts of DMA channels not assigned to serial ports
- *
- * Revision 1.37  2002/08/13 13:02:37  bjornw
- * Removed some warnings because of unused code
- *
- * Revision 1.36  2002/08/08 12:50:01  starvik
- * Serial interrupt is shared with synchronous serial port driver
- *
- * Revision 1.35  2002/06/03 10:40:49  starvik

- *
- * Revision 1.34  2002/05/28 18:59:36  johana
- * Whitespace and comment fixing to be more like etrax100ser.c 1.71.
- *
- * Revision 1.33  2002/05/28 17:55:43  johana
- * RS-485 uses FAST_TIMER if enabled, and starts a short (one char time)
- * timer from tranismit_chars (interrupt context).
- * The timer toggles RTS in interrupt context when expired giving minimum
- * latencies.
- *
- * Revision 1.32  2002/05/22 13:58:00  johana
- * Renamed rs_write() to raw_write() and made it inline.
- * New rs_write() handles RS-485 if configured and enabled
- * (moved code from e100_write_rs485()).
- * RS-485 ioctl's uses copy_from_user() instead of verify_area().
- *
- * Revision 1.31  2002/04/22 11:20:03  johana
- * Updated copyright years.
- *
- * Revision 1.30  2002/04/22 09:39:12  johana
- * RS-485 support compiles.
- *
- * Revision 1.29  2002/01/14 16:10:01  pkj
- * Allocate the receive buffers dynamically. The static 4kB buffer was
- * too small for the peaks. This means that we can get rid of the extra
- * buffer and the copying to it. It also means we require less memory
- * under normal operations, but can use more when needed (there is a
- * cap at 64kB for safety reasons). If there is no memory available
- * we panic(), and die a horrible death...
- *
- * Revision 1.28  2001/12/18 15:04:53  johana
- * Cleaned up write_rs485() - now it works correctly without padding extra
- * char.
- * Added sane default initialisation of rs485.
- * Added #ifdef around dummy variables.
- *
- * Revision 1.27  2001/11/29 17:00:41  pkj
- * 2kB seems to be too small a buffer when using 921600 bps,
- * so increase it to 4kB (this was already done for the elinux
- * version of the serial driver).
- *
- * Revision 1.26  2001/11/19 14:20:41  pkj
- * Minor changes to comments and unused code.
- *
- * Revision 1.25  2001/11/12 20:03:43  pkj
- * Fixed compiler warnings.
- *
- * Revision 1.24  2001/11/12 15:10:05  pkj
- * Total redesign of the receiving part of the serial driver.
- * Uses eight chained descriptors to write to a 4kB buffer.
- * This data is then serialised into a 2kB buffer. From there it
- * is copied into the TTY's flip buffers when they become available.
- * A lot of copying, and the sizes of the buffers might need to be
- * tweaked, but all in all it should work better than the previous
- * version, without the need to modify the TTY code in any way.
- * Also note that erroneous bytes are now correctly marked in the
- * flag buffers (instead of always marking the first byte).
- *
- * Revision 1.23  2001/10/30 17:53:26  pkj
- * * Set info->uses_dma to 0 when a port is closed.
- * * Mark the timer1 interrupt as a fast one (SA_INTERRUPT).
- * * Call start_flush_timer() in start_receive() if
- *   CONFIG_ETRAX_SERIAL_FLUSH_DMA_FAST is defined.
- *
- * Revision 1.22  2001/10/30 17:44:03  pkj
- * Use %lu for received and transmitted counters in line_info().
- *
- * Revision 1.21  2001/10/30 17:40:34  pkj
- * Clean-up. The only change to functionality is that
- * CONFIG_ETRAX_SERIAL_RX_TIMEOUT_TICKS(=5) is used instead of
- * MAX_FLUSH_TIME(=8).
- *
- * Revision 1.20  2001/10/30 15:24:49  johana
- * Added char_time stuff from 2.0 driver.
- *

- * Merged with 1.13.2 branch + fixed indentation
- * and changed CONFIG_ETRAX100_XYS to CONFIG_ETRAX_XYZ
- *
- * Revision 1.18  2001/09/24 09:27:22  pkj
- * Completed ext_baud_table[] in cflag_to_baud() and cflag_to_etrax_baud().
- *
- * Revision 1.17  2001/08/24 11:32:49  ronny
- * More fixes for the CONFIG_ETRAX_SERIAL_PORT0 define.
- *

- *
- * Revision 1.15  2001/08/16 09:10:31  bjarne
- * serial.c - corrected the initialization of rs_table, the wrong defines
- *            where used.
- *            Corrected a test in timed_flush_handler.
- *            Changed configured to enabled.
- * serial.h - Changed configured to enabled.
- *
- * Revision 1.14  2001/08/15 07:31:23  bjarne
- * Introduced two new members to the e100_serial struct.
- * configured - Will be set to 1 if the port has been configured in .config
- * uses_dma   - Should be set to 1 if the port uses DMA. Currently it is set
- *              to 1
- *              when a port is opened. This is used to limit the DMA interrupt
- *              routines to only manipulate DMA channels actually used by the
- *              serial driver.
- *
- * Revision 1.13.2.2  2001/10/17 13:57:13  starvik
- * Receiver was broken by the break fixes
- *
- * Revision 1.13.2.1  2001/07/20 13:57:39  ronny
- * Merge with new stuff from etrax100ser.c. Works but haven't checked stuff
- * like break handling.
- *
- * Revision 1.13  2001/05/09 12:40:31  johana
- * Use DMA_NBR and IRQ_NBR defines from dma.h and irq.h
- *
- * Revision 1.12  2001/04/19 12:23:07  bjornw
- * CONFIG_RS485 -> CONFIG_ETRAX_RS485
- *
- * Revision 1.11  2001/04/05 14:29:48  markusl
- * Updated according to review remarks i.e.
- * -Use correct types in port structure to avoid compiler warnings
- * -Try to use IO_* macros whenever possible
- * -Open should never return -EBUSY
- *
- * Revision 1.10  2001/03/05 13:14:07  bjornw
- * Another spelling fix
- *
- * Revision 1.9  2001/02/23 13:46:38  bjornw
- * Spellling check
- *
- * Revision 1.8  2001/01/23 14:56:35  markusl

- * Revision 1.6  2000/11/22 16:36:09  bjornw
- * Please marketing by using the correct case when spelling Etrax.
- *
- * Revision 1.5  2000/11/21 16:43:37  bjornw
- * Fixed so it compiles under CONFIG_SVINTO_SIM
- *
- * Revision 1.4  2000/11/15 17:34:12  bjornw
- * Added a timeout timer for flushing input channels. The interrupt-based
- * fast flush system should be easy to merge with this later (works the same
- * way, only with an irq instead of a system timer_list)
- *
- * Revision 1.3  2000/11/13 17:19:57  bjornw
- * * Incredibly, this almost complete rewrite of serial.c worked (at least
- *   for output) the first time.
- *
- *   Items worth noticing:
- *
- *      No Etrax100 port 1 workarounds (does only compile on 2.4 anyway now)
- *      RS485 is not ported (why can't it be done in userspace as on x86 ?)
- *      Statistics done through async_icount - if any more stats are needed,
- *      that's the place to put them or in an arch-dep version of it.
- *      timeout_interrupt and the other fast timeout stuff not ported yet
- *      There be dragons in this 3k+ line driver
- *
- * Revision 1.2  2000/11/10 16:50:28  bjornw
- * First shot at a 2.4 port, does not compile totally yet
- *
- * Revision 1.1  2000/11/10 16:47:32  bjornw
- * Added verbatim copy of rev 1.49 etrax100ser.c from elinux
- *

- * CONFIG_ETRAX_SERIAL_PROC_ENTRY together.
- * Some clean-up of the /proc/serial file.
- *
- * Revision 1.46  2000/10/16 12:59:40  johana
- * Added CONFIG_ETRAX_SERIAL_PROC_ENTRY for statistics and debug info.
- *
- * Revision 1.45  2000/10/13 17:10:59  pkj
- * Do not flush DMAs while flipping TTY buffers.
- *
- * Revision 1.44  2000/10/13 16:34:29  pkj
- * Added a delay in ser_interrupt() for 2.3ms when an error is detected.
- * We do not know why this delay is required yet, but without it the
- * irmaflash program does not work (this was the program that needed
- * the ser_interrupt() to be needed in the first place). This should not
- * affect normal use of the serial ports.
- *
- * Revision 1.43  2000/10/13 16:30:44  pkj
- * New version of the fast flush of serial buffers code. This time
- * it is localized to the serial driver and uses a fast timer to
- * do the work.
- *
- * Revision 1.42  2000/10/13 14:54:26  bennyo
- * Fix for switching RTS when using rs485
- *
- * Revision 1.41  2000/10/12 11:43:44  pkj
- * Cleaned up a number of comments.
- *
- * Revision 1.40  2000/10/10 11:58:39  johana
- * Made RS485 support generic for all ports.
- * Toggle rts in interrupt if no delay wanted.
- * WARNING: No true transmitter empty check??
- * Set d_wait bit when sending data so interrupt is delayed until
- * fifo flushed. (Fix tcdrain() problem)
- *
- * Revision 1.39  2000/10/04 16:08:02  bjornw
- * * Use virt_to_phys etc. for DMA addresses
- * * Removed CONFIG_FLUSH_DMA_FAST hacks
- * * Indentation fix
- *
- * Revision 1.38  2000/10/02 12:27:10  mattias
- * * added variable used when using fast flush on serial dma.
- *   (CONFIG_FLUSH_DMA_FAST)
- *
- * Revision 1.37  2000/09/27 09:44:24  pkj
- * Uncomment definition of SERIAL_HANDLE_EARLY_ERRORS.
- *
- * Revision 1.36  2000/09/20 13:12:52  johana
- * Support for CONFIG_ETRAX_SERIAL_RX_TIMEOUT_TICKS:
- *   Number of timer ticks between flush of receive fifo (1 tick = 10ms).
- *   Try 0-3 for low latency applications. Approx 5 for high load
- *   applications (e.g. PPP). Maybe this should be more adaptive some day...
- *
- * Revision 1.35  2000/09/20 10:36:08  johana
- * Typo in get_lsr_info()
- *
- * Revision 1.34  2000/09/20 10:29:59  johana
- * Let rs_chars_in_buffer() check fifo content as well.
- * get_lsr_info() might work now (not tested).
- * Easier to change the port to debug.
- *
- * Revision 1.33  2000/09/13 07:52:11  torbjore
- * Support RS485
- *
- * Revision 1.32  2000/08/31 14:45:37  bjornw
- * After sending a break we need to reset the transmit DMA channel
- *
- * Revision 1.31  2000/06/21 12:13:29  johana
- * Fixed wait for all chars sent when closing port.
- * (Used to always take 1 second!)
- * Added shadows for directions of status/ctrl signals.
- *
- * Revision 1.30  2000/05/29 16:27:55  bjornw
- * Simulator ifdef moved a bit
- *
- * Revision 1.29  2000/05/09 09:40:30  mattias
- * * Added description of dma registers used in timeout_interrupt
- * * Removed old code
- *
- * Revision 1.28  2000/05/08 16:38:58  mattias
- * * Bugfix for flushing fifo in timeout_interrupt
- *   Problem occurs when bluetooth stack waits for a small number of bytes
- *   containing an event acknowledging free buffers in bluetooth HW
- *   As before, data was stuck in fifo until more data came on uart and
- *   flushed it up to the stack.
- *
- * Revision 1.27  2000/05/02 09:52:28  jonasd
- * Added fix for peculiar etrax behaviour when eop is forced on an empty
- * fifo. This is used when flashing the IRMA chip. Disabled by default.
- *
- * Revision 1.26  2000/03/29 15:32:02  bjornw
- * 2.0.34 updates
- *
- * Revision 1.25  2000/02/16 16:59:36  bjornw
- * * Receive DMA directly into the flip-buffer, eliminating an intermediary
- *   receive buffer and a memcpy. Will avoid some overruns.
- * * Error message on debug port if an overrun or flip buffer overrun occurs.
- * * Just use the first byte in the flag flip buffer for errors.
- * * Check for timeout on the serial ports only each 5/100 s, not 1/100.
- *
- * Revision 1.24  2000/02/09 18:02:28  bjornw
- * * Clear serial errors (overrun, framing, parity) correctly. Before, the
- *   receiver would get stuck if an error occurred and we did not restart
- *   the input DMA.
- * * Cosmetics (indentation, some code made into inlines)
- * * Some more debug options
- * * Actually shut down the serial port (DMA irq, DMA reset, receiver stop)
- *   when the last open is closed. Corresponding fixes in startup().
- * * rs_close() "tx FIFO wait" code moved into right place, bug & -> && fixed
- *   and make a special case out of port 1 (R_DMA_CHx_STATUS is broken for that)
- * * e100_disable_rx/enable_rx just disables/enables the receiver, not RTS
- *
- * Revision 1.23  2000/01/24 17:46:19  johana
- * Wait for flush of DMA/FIFO when closing port.
- *
- * Revision 1.22  2000/01/20 18:10:23  johana
- * Added TIOCMGET ioctl to return modem status.
- * Implemented modem status/control that works with the extra signals
- * (DTR, DSR, RI,CD) as well.
- * 3 different modes supported:
- * ser0 on PB (Bundy), ser1 on PB (Lisa) and ser2 on PA (Bundy)
- * Fixed DEF_TX value that caused the serial transmitter pin (txd) to go to 0 when
- * closing the last filehandle, NASTY!.
- * Added break generation, not tested though!
- * Use IRQF_SHARED when request_irq() for ser2 and ser3 (shared with) par0 and par1.
- * You can't use them at the same time (yet..), but you can hopefully switch
- * between ser2/par0, ser3/par1 with the same kernel config.
- * Replaced some magic constants with defines
- *
- *
