From 5db5815e997ae8cf0a3bba6a25652d8b6fd5edd1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Pali=20Roh=C3=A1r?= Date: Mon, 15 Nov 2021 13:48:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] serial: a37xx: Reset whole UART when changing parent clock from TBG to XTAL MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sometimes UART stops transmitting characters after UART clock is changed back to XTAL. In this state UART fifo is always full. Kernel during early boot wants to print output on UART and is waiting for non-empty UART fifo. Which leads to CPU hangup without any (debug) output on UART. Marvell Armada 3700 Functional Specifications says that for programming fractional divisor registers it is required to disable UART, enable loopback mode, reset fifos, program registers, disable loopback mode, release reset of fifos and enable UART. But these steps do not fix above mentioned issue that UART hangup. Also gating UART clock does not help. And even resetting UART state machines do not help. Experiments showed that UART fifo is unblocked after board is being reset (during board reset UART HW transmit UART fifo even CPU is not executing kernel/bootloader anymore). And another experiments showed that same workaround can be achieved also by external reset of UART HW (without need to reset board). So do not implement any of "Marvell recommended" steps from Functional Specifications as they do not work. And rather prior changing parent clock back to XTAL, do external reset of UART HW. This operation also resets all UART registers, so basically it also sets UART clock to default, which is XTAL. It is unknown why UART hangups and enters such broken state.
