Subject: [PATCH v3 0/8] serial: exar: add Connect Tech serial cards to Exar driver

From: Parker Newman <[email protected]>

Hello,
These patches add proper support for most of Connect Tech's (CTI) Exar
based serial cards. Previously, only a subset of CTI's cards would work
with the Exar driver while the rest required the CTI out-of-tree driver.
These patches are intended to phase out the out-of-tree driver.

I am new to the mailing lists and contributing to the kernel so please
let me know if I have made any mistakes or if you have any feedback.

Changes in v2:
- Put missing PCI IDs in 8250_exar.c instead of pci_ids.h
- Split large patch into smaller ones

Changes in v3:
- Refactored patches to be easier to follow (based on feedback of v2)
- Patch specific changes listed in corresponding patch

Thank you,

Parker Newman (8):
serial: exar: adding missing CTI and Exar PCI ids
serial: exar: remove old Connect Tech setup
serial: exar: added a exar_get_nr_ports function
serial: exar: add optional board_init function
serial: exar: moved generic_rs485 further up in 8250_exar.c
serial: exar: add CTI cards to exar_get_nr_ports
serial: exar: add CTI specific setup code
serial: exar: fix: fix crash during shutdown if setup fails

Subject: [PATCH v3 4/8] serial: exar: add optional board_init function

From: Parker Newman <[email protected]>

- Add an optional "board_init()" function pointer to struct
exar8250_board which is called once during probe prior to setting up
the ports.

- Fix several "missing identifier name" warnings from checkpatch in
struct exar8250_platform and struct exar8250_board:

WARNING: function definition argument <arg> should also have an
identifier name

- Fix warning from checkpatch:
WARNING: please, no space before tabs
+ * 0^I^I2 ^IMode bit 0$

Changes in v3:
- Renamed board_setup to board_init.
- Changed pci_err to dev_err_probe
- Added note above about checkpatch fixes

This change isn't related to the exar8250_board change, right?

Just keep exar8250_board change as one patch, and the coding style
warning fixups as one for the very end, after you add all of your new
functionality.

thanks,

Much better. I took the 1st patch already in my tree to make it
hopefully easire for you to rebase and redo the rest.

I will resend with the updates.
I have been using the "main" branch of gregkh/tty.git so far. Is that correct?
Or should I be using "tty-testing"?

Thanks again for bearing with me while I figure this out :).

tty-testing is where things go before they are considered "good enough"
to get into "tty-next" which is never rebased, and is what will be sent
to Linus for the "next" kernel release (not this one.)

Sometimes it is rebased if I mess things up, but usually it's pretty
stable. Patches only sit in there for 24 hours usually before ending up
in "tty-next"

"main" just tracks Linus's branch, don't use it, I just need a branch to
diff against.

"tty-linus" is what will be sent to Linus for "this" release (i.e. bug
fixes only.)

Or you can just work off of the linux-next tree, which merges in both of
my tty-next and tty-linus branches together (and all other maintainer
trees/branches), every day, and is usually a good base for what will be
the "next" release after this one.

hope this helps,

greg k-h
