[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1988984] Re: earlyconsole prints ������������������������ on 5.19.0-1002-generic
Re-titling bug report to avoid printing unprintable characters in the
kernel upload changelog.
** Description changed:
+ earlyconsole prints on 5.19.0-1002-generic
+
[ Impact ]
* When adding earlycon to the kernel command line on the
SiFive Unmatched board the serial console will print garbage
halfway through booting until entering userspace and other
other drivers are loaded.
* The problem is the UART driver doesn't claim its clocks
properly so the PWM driver will turn off the parent clock
until PWM is needed for the LEDs on the board.
* Compiling the PWM driver as a module so it will be loaded
at the same time the LED drivers are loaded is a workaround
-until the following patch is backported
+ until the following patch is backported
643792048ee8 ("serial: sifive: enable clocks for UART when probed")
* Only the SoCs on the SiFive Unleashed and Unmatched boards use
this PWM driver, but none of them need it at boot time, so should
be harmless.
[ Test Plan ]
* Add earlycon and watch the serial console while booting.
* Test that PWM leds still work after the PWM driver module is loaded.
[ Where problems could occur ]
* There might be a hidden dependency on loading the PWM driver early.
[ Other Info ]
