It will tx fine the console output during the boot. But then I try to type something e.g. at the login: prompt, it behaves oddly: it re-transmits some old output, and then stalls for a few secs, usually for each character. Typed characters are however received correctly. But the console is impossible to use... I bisected this to: 717f3bbab3c7628736ef738fdbf3d9a28578c26c is the first bad commit commit 717f3bbab3c7628736ef738fdbf3d9a28578c26c Author: Seth Bollinger Date: Tue Mar 25 12:55:37 2014 -0500 serial_core: Fix conditional start_tx on ring buffer not empty A. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
