However, these It would be nice if you be consistent across the commit messages and also provide the names of the callbacks in full, because I dunno if we have a local stop_tx() or rs485_start() or whatever the above means. If it is "the rs485_start_tx() / rs485_stop_tx() callbacks.", it's much clearer for the reader. > callbacks will disable/enable interrupts, which is a problem toggle? > for console write, as it must be responsible for > disabling/enabling interrupts. toggling ? > Add an argument @in_con to the rs485_start/stop_tx() callbacks As per above. > to specify if they are being called from console write.

So, why not call the parameter better to emphasize that it's about IRQ toggling? bool toggle_irq ?

Currently there are only 2 users: serial8250_em485_stop_tx() bcm2835aux_rs485_stop_tx() The first one toggles the IER bits, the second one does not. I figured it would make more sense to specify the context rather than what needs to be done and let the 8250-variant decide what it should do. But I have no problems renaming it to toggle_irq. It is an 8250-specific callback with few users. And really the IER bits is the only reason that the argument even needs to exist. John

I haven't looked deeply into the implementations, so choose whichever describes better what's behind it.

That would effectively eliminate patch 2/6. thanks,

That would effectively eliminate patch 2/6. I considered this, however: 1. The whole idea of stopping RX in order to do TX is an RS485 issue. Modifying the general ->stop_rx() callback for this purpose is kind of out of place. 2. The ->stop_rx() callback is a general uart_ops callback. Changing its prototype would literally affect all serial drivers. OTOH the ->rs485_start_tx() callback is specific to the 8250 driver. (It seems each driver has implemented their own method for handling the RS485 hacks.) So I would prefer to keep the necessary RS485 changes 8250-specific for now. John

It is not clear to me what exactly is the problem. Is the main problem calling pm_runtime*() API because it uses extra locks and can cause deadlocks? Or is it more complicated? IMHO, it would deserve some explanation. > Add an argument @in_con to the rs485_start/stop_tx() callbacks > to specify if they are being called from console write.

And honestly, I do not have any idea how to improve the naming. I would keep it as is after reading John's answers in the thread. IMHO, one thing which makes things comlicated is that serial8250_em485_start_tx() and serial8250_em485_stop_tx() are not completely reversible operations. Especially, the change done by __serial8250_stop_rx_mask_dr() is not reverted in serial8250_em485_stop_tx(). It makes things look tricky. But I think that it is beyond the scope of this patchset to do anything about it. Just 2 my cents. Best Regaards, Petr

For RS485 mode, if SER_RS485_RX_DURING_TX is not available, the console write callback needs to enable/disable TX. It does this by calling the rs485_start/stop_tx() callbacks. However, these callbacks will disable/enable interrupts, which is a problem for console write, as it must be responsible for disabling/enabling interrupts. Add an argument @in_con to the rs485_start/stop_tx() callbacks to specify if they are being called from console write. If so, the callbacks will not handle interrupt disabling/enabling. For all call sites other than console write, there is no functional change.
