Subject: [PATCH v6 1/2] platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: Add cros-ec-uart transport layer

This patch does following:
1. Adds a new cros-ec-uart driver. This driver can send EC requests on
UART and process response packets received on UART transport.
2. Once probed, this driver will initialize the serdev device based on
the underlying information in the ACPI resource. After serdev device
properties are set, this driver will register itself cros-ec.
3. High level driver can use this implementation to talk to ChromeOS
Embedded Controller device in case it supports UART as transport.
4. When cros-ec driver initiates a request packet, outgoing message is
processed in buffer and sent via serdev. Once bytes are sent, driver
enables a wait_queue.
5. Since ChromeOS EC device sends response asynchronously, AP's TTY
driver accumulates response bytes and calls the registered callback.
TTY driver can send multiple callback for bytes ranging from 1 to MAX
bytes supported by EC device.
6. Driver waits for EC_MSG_DEADLINE_MS to collect and process received
bytes. It wakes wait_queue if expected bytes are received or else
wait_queue timeout. Based on the error condition, driver returns
data_len or error to cros_ec.

Changes in v6:
- Tuning EC_MSG_DEADLINE_MS from 1 sec to 500 msec. Since the EC's UART
response buffer was tuned and redeuced to 256 byte, 500 msec timeout
should give enough time for 256 bytes to be recieved from SoC UART
buffer.

Changes in v5:
- Fixed checkpatch.pl warnings.

Changes in v4:
- Change EC_MSG_DEADLINE_MS from 3 secs to 1 sec. 3 secs timeout prevents
driver from intercepting EC in RO stage. In case of request failure, 1
sec allows driver to retry and send HC when EC is in RO.
- Add more information in commit message.

Changes in v3:
- checkpatch.pl script warns about char len 80 even though we have
relaxed view guideline for line below 100 chars. Currently sticking
with 80 chars in v3.
- Fixed style issues

Changes in v2:
- Fixed build error on v1.
- Changed EC timeout for response packet to 3 Sec and added comments.
- Fixed cros_ec_uart_rx_bytes function to handle rx buffer < size of response header.

Hi Bhanu,

Thank you for your patch.

The problem with this patchset continues being the same. You are using the trick
of using a DT compatible string to instantiate an ACPI-only driver. You should
have an ACPI ID for that device or use a DMI table to match the device and
instantiate it (see for example the platform/chrome/cros_ec_lpc.c).

Thanks,
Enric

It isn't really meant to be an ACPI only driver, it just happens
to be an x86 system that uses the UART interface first. We use
this PRP0001 instantiation method with a lot of different drivers
like MIPI cameras, fingerprint sensors, the cr50 TPM driver, etc.

That said it is true that the rest of the cros_ec drivers use
distinct ACPI IDs. Bhanu I allocated GOOG0019 for the cros_ec
UART interface so you can switch to using that instead.
You'll need to update the coreboot interface as well and might
want to keep both devices in firmware to ease the transition.

Right, but then you need to define a proper DT binding, with all the options,
not only the compatible name.
