Corey,
Moving uart_register_ldrv() into uart_add_one_port() seems to be working. I
can create and deliver a patch for you. I am unaware of the proper
procedure for posting patches so I have a few questions.
What would you like the patch generated against (stock kernel.org
2.6.18serial_core.c
I haven't seen this problem, but it appears to be order related and
that's probably why I missed it.
I think the right answer is to move the call to uart_register_ldrv() out
of uart_configure_port() and move it into uart_add_one_port() after the
mutex->state is unlocked. However, I haven't te
Hi,
I am setting up IPMI for an ATCA board with a pigeon point MMC on it. This
requires the serial driver. I have downloaded the 2.6.18 serial patches and
applied them. There seems to be a problem with some
mutex_lock(&state->mutex) code in the layered driver interface added to
serial_core.c
