-Subject: [PATCH] tty: amba-pl011: Avoid rare write-when-full error
-
-Under some circumstances on BCM283x processors data loss can be
-observed - a single byte missing from the TX output stream. These bytes
-are always the last byte of a batch of 8 written from pl011_tx_chars
-when from_irq is true, meaning that the FIFO full flag is not checked
-before writing.
-
-The transmit optimisation relies on the FIFO being half-empty when the
-TX interrupt is raised. Instrumenting the driver further showed that
-the failure case correlated with the TX FIFO full flag being set at the
-point where the last byte was written to the data register, which
-explains the data loss but not how the FIFO appeared to be prematurely
-full. A possible explanation is that a FIFO write was in flight at the
-time the interrupt was raised, but as yet there is no hypothesis as to
-how this might occur.
-
-In the absence of a clear understanding of the failure mechanism, avoid
-the problem by checking the FIFO levels before writing the last byte of
-the group, which will have minimal performance impact.
