Hi all, on an i.MX6Q we had a situation where we got "Imprecise Data Aborts". The backtraces of those aborts were useless, all over the place. But we found out that we can trigger this bug with this procedure: - make some external PC send constantly through the serial port to the i.MX6Q. - run a serial program on the i.MX6Q that receives the data and echos it back - let this program terminate and restart every over second (we used a 4 second interval) Chances were good that we reproduced the issue with various kernels (up to 4.7.2). In the drivers/tty/serial/tty/imx.c I disabled all DMA, because this was my first suspicion. But to no avail. Eventually we asked some company to help us. They produced the following patch. With this patch, we can now run for a long time without any imprecise data abort (actually we run into another issue, but according to https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/16/452 "tty crash in Linux 4.6" this is already in the working). It's entirely clear to me that below WIP-patch has ZERO chance of being added. It's not just checkpatch that will barf over it. :-) My goal is to make the more knowledgeable people aware of the issue and to give them a pointer, so that they can tell me how to fix the issue in a correct way.
