Thank you so much for your answer. You are also right about the question
might be incomplete ( If so, pls let me know after re-reading my e-mail,
and checking 8250-sunxi.c file in current kernel, and explaining by what is
the relation between SIR mode of AXX UART and whichever AXX based DEVICE /
KERNEL it is? )

However, I was expecting that at least someone who wrote / debug / test
this driver :

1) Comment on the driver that nobody have defined UART_MCR register flags
since the beginning.
2) Give an idea of how to implement this functionality in sunxi-kernel ,
just a comment.

I love this community and I am very very thankful for this great work. I am
trying to provide help as much as I can,

- By asking some newbie questions since mid-2013
- By providing patch files for my hardware ( See:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/linux-sunxi/OFdLuIlIotw/0hKTxXJBPnUJ
or  https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=4245.0 )
- By providing some documentation : (See:
http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/users/stulluk/ )
- By writing some pages to sunxi-wiki ( as an unexperienced newbie, see:
http://linux-sunxi.org/Camera or http://linux-sunxi.org/FFmpeg )
- By communicating with other experienced contributors and sharing this
information to help other people ( See:
https://github.com/stulluk/FFmpeg-Cedrus )

Now, could you please tell me, what is the rude thing about saying
"community is silent these days ?"

I am not blaming anybody, and not saying "Hey, why don't you answer my
question in 28 hours????"

Still, I am soo thankful to everyone who contributed to this community, and
if I can do to provide this functionality ( SIR mode in UART), I will try
my best to write a patch file and a tutorial of controlling your IR devices
by using your AXX hardware / sunxi-kernel.

Regards.
