uart_ops
--------
-The uart_ops structure is the main interface between serial_core and the
-hardware specific driver. It contains all the methods to control the
-hardware.
-
- tx_empty(port)
- This function tests whether the transmitter fifo and shifter
- for the port described by 'port' is empty. If it is empty,
- this function should return TIOCSER_TEMT, otherwise return 0.
- If the port does not support this operation, then it should
- return TIOCSER_TEMT.
-
- Locking: none.
-
- Interrupts: caller dependent.
-
- This call must not sleep
-
- set_mctrl(port, mctrl)
- This function sets the modem control lines for port described
- by 'port' to the state described by mctrl. The relevant bits
- of mctrl are:
-
- - TIOCM_RTS RTS signal.
- - TIOCM_DTR DTR signal.
- - TIOCM_OUT1 OUT1 signal.
- - TIOCM_OUT2 OUT2 signal.
- - TIOCM_LOOP Set the port into loopback mode.
-
- If the appropriate bit is set, the signal should be driven
- active. If the bit is clear, the signal should be driven
- inactive.
-
- Locking: port->lock taken.
-
- Interrupts: locally disabled.
-
- This call must not sleep
-
- get_mctrl(port)
- Returns the current state of modem control inputs. The state
- of the outputs should not be returned, since the core keeps
- track of their state. The state information should include:
-
- - TIOCM_CAR state of DCD signal
- - TIOCM_CTS state of CTS signal
- - TIOCM_DSR state of DSR signal
- - TIOCM_RI state of RI signal
-
- The bit is set if the signal is currently driven active. If
- the port does not support CTS, DCD or DSR, the driver should
- indicate that the signal is permanently active. If RI is
- not available, the signal should not be indicated as active.
-
- Locking: port->lock taken.

-
- stop_tx(port)
- Stop transmitting characters. This might be due to the CTS

- This is used to implement XON/XOFF flow control and tcflow(). If
- the serial driver does not implement this function, the tty core
- will append the character to the circular buffer and then call
- start_tx() / stop_tx() to flush the data out.

- boards:
-
- - 2 ports multiport board
- CP-102U, CP-102UL, CP-102UF
- CP-132U-I, CP-132UL,
- CP-132, CP-132I, CP132S, CP-132IS,
- (CP-102, CP-102S)
-
- - 4 ports multiport board
- CP-104EL,
- CP-104UL, CP-104JU,
- CP-134U, CP-134U-I,
- C104H/PCI, C104HS/PCI,

- (C114HI, CT-114I),
- POS-104UL,
- CB-114,
- CB-134I
-
- - 8 ports multiport board
- CP-118EL, CP-168EL,
- CP-118U, CP-168U,
- C168H/PCI,
- CB-108
-
- If a compatibility problem occurs, please contact Moxa at
- support@moxa.com.tw.
-
- In addition to device driver, useful utilities are also provided in this
- version. They are:
-
- - msdiag
- Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa
- Smartio/Industio boards.
- - msmon
- Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals.
- - msterm A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial
- ports.
-
- All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under
- GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General
- Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail.
-
- In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find the latest driver at
- https://www.moxa.com/.
-
- This version of driver can be installed as a Loadable Module (Module driver)
- or built-in into kernel (Static driver). Before you install the driver,
- please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual.
-
- We assume the user should be familiar with following documents:
-
- - Serial-HOWTO
- - Kernel-HOWTO
-
-2. System Requirement
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
- - Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination
-
-3. Installation
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-3.1 Hardware installation
-=========================
-
-PCI/UPCI board
---------------
-
- You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid IRQ conflict with other
- ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation procedure in User's
- Manual in advance.
-
-PCI IRQ Sharing
----------------
-
- Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to
- 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed
- together on one system and they can share the same IRQ.
-
-
-
-3.2 Device naming convention
-============================
-
- The device node is named "ttyMxx".
-
-Device naming when more than 2 boards installed
------------------------------------------------
-
- Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is
- pre-defined as below.
-
- ============ ===============
- Board Num. Device node
- 1st board ttyM0 - ttyM7
- 2nd board ttyM8 - ttyM15
- 3rd board ttyM16 - ttyM23
- 4th board ttyM24 - ttyM31
- ============ ===============
-
-4. Utilities
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
- There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and
- msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should
- be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin.
-
-msdiag - Diagnostic
-===================
-
- This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio
- board was found by the driver in the system.
-
-msmon - Port Monitoring
-=======================
-
- This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports'
- activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted
- (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started.
-
- Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g.
- the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring
- is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <->
- (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER>
- on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication
- parameters, signal status, and input/output queue.
-
-msterm - Terminal Emulation
-===========================
-
- This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports,
- especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple
- application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the
- port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a
- dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation.
-
-5. Setserial
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
- Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below.
-
- ============== =============================================================
- uart set UART type(16450 --> disable FIFO, 16550A --> enable FIFO)
- close_delay set the amount of time (in 1/100 of a second) that DTR
- should be kept low while being closed.
- closing_wait set the amount of time (in 1/100 of a second) that the
- serial port should wait for data to be drained while
- being closed, before the receiver is disabled.
- spd_hi Use 57.6kb when the application requests 38.4kb.
- spd_vhi Use 115.2kb when the application requests 38.4kb.
- spd_shi Use 230.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb.
- spd_warp Use 460.8kb when the application requests 38.4kb.
- spd_normal Use 38.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb.
- spd_cust Use the custom divisor to set the speed when the
- application requests 38.4kb.
- divisor This option sets the custom division.
- baud_base This option sets the base baud rate.
- ============== =============================================================
-
-6. Troubleshooting
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
- The boot time error messages and solutions are stated as clearly as
- possible. If all the possible solutions fail, please contact our technical
- support team to get more help.
-
-
- Error msg:
- More than 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio family boards found. Fifth board
- and after are ignored.
-
- Solution:
- To avoid this problem, please unplug fifth and after board, because Moxa
- driver supports up to 4 boards.

- Note that after closing the physical port the modem is still in multiplexing
- mode. This may prevent a successful re-opening of the port later. To avoid
- this situation either reset the modem if your hardware allows that or send
- a disconnect command frame manually before initializing the multiplexing mode
- for the second time. The byte sequence for the disconnect command frame is::

+
+ Address mode flags:
+ - SER_RS485_ADDRB: Enabled addressing mode (sets also ADDRB in termios).
+ - SER_RS485_ADDR_RECV: Receive (filter) address enabled.
+ - SER_RS485_ADDR_DEST: Set destination address.
+
+ Address fields (enabled with corresponding SER_RS485_ADDR_* flag):
+ - addr_recv: Receive address.
+ - addr_dest: Destination address.
+
+ Once a receive address is set, the communication can occur only with the
+ particular device and other peers are filtered out. It is left up to the
+ receiver side to enforce the filtering. Receive address will be cleared
+ if SER_RS485_ADDR_RECV is not set.
+
+ Note: not all devices supporting RS485 support multipoint addressing.

-
-Your guide to the ancient and twisted locking policies of the tty layer and
-the warped logic behind them. Beware all ye who read on.

-
-Line Discipline
----------------
-
-Line disciplines are registered with tty_register_ldisc() passing the
-discipline number and the ldisc structure. At the point of registration the
-discipline must be ready to use and it is possible it will get used before
-the call returns success. If the call returns an error then it won't get
-called. Do not re-use ldisc numbers as they are part of the userspace ABI
-and writing over an existing ldisc will cause demons to eat your computer.
-After the return the ldisc data has been copied so you may free your own
-copy of the structure. You must not re-register over the top of the line
-discipline even with the same data or your computer again will be eaten by
-demons.
-
-In order to remove a line discipline call tty_unregister_ldisc().
-In ancient times this always worked. In modern times the function will
-return -EBUSY if the ldisc is currently in use. Since the ldisc referencing
-code manages the module counts this should not usually be a concern.
-
-Heed this warning: the reference count field of the registered copies of the
-tty_ldisc structure in the ldisc table counts the number of lines using this
-discipline. The reference count of the tty_ldisc structure within a tty
-counts the number of active users of the ldisc at this instant. In effect it
-counts the number of threads of execution within an ldisc method (plus those
-about to enter and exit although this detail matters not).
-
-Line Discipline Methods
------------------------
-
-TTY side interfaces
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-======================= =======================================================
-open() Called when the line discipline is attached to
- the terminal. No other call into the line
- discipline for this tty will occur until it
- completes successfully. Should initialize any
- state needed by the ldisc, and set receive_room
- in the tty_struct to the maximum amount of data
- the line discipline is willing to accept from the
- driver with a single call to receive_buf().
- Returning an error will prevent the ldisc from
- being attached. Can sleep.
-
-close() This is called on a terminal when the line
- discipline is being unplugged. At the point of
- execution no further users will enter the
- ldisc code for this tty. Can sleep.
-
-hangup() Called when the tty line is hung up.
- The line discipline should cease I/O to the tty.
- No further calls into the ldisc code will occur.
- Can sleep.
-
-read() (optional) A process requests reading data from
- the line. Multiple read calls may occur in parallel
- and the ldisc must deal with serialization issues.
- If not defined, the process will receive an EIO
- error. May sleep.
-
-write() (optional) A process requests writing data to the
- line. Multiple write calls are serialized by the
- tty layer for the ldisc. If not defined, the
- process will receive an EIO error. May sleep.
-
-flush_buffer() (optional) May be called at any point between
- open and close, and instructs the line discipline
- to empty its input buffer.
-
-set_termios() (optional) Called on termios structure changes.
- The caller passes the old termios data and the
- current data is in the tty. Called under the
- termios semaphore so allowed to sleep. Serialized
- against itself only.
-
-poll() (optional) Check the status for the poll/select
- calls. Multiple poll calls may occur in parallel.
- May sleep.
-
-ioctl() (optional) Called when an ioctl is handed to the
- tty layer that might be for the ldisc. Multiple
- ioctl calls may occur in parallel. May sleep.
-
-compat_ioctl() (optional) Called when a 32 bit ioctl is handed
- to the tty layer that might be for the ldisc.
- Multiple ioctl calls may occur in parallel.
- May sleep.
-======================= =======================================================
-
-Driver Side Interfaces
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-======================= =======================================================
-receive_buf() (optional) Called by the low-level driver to hand
- a buffer of received bytes to the ldisc for
- processing. The number of bytes is guaranteed not
- to exceed the current value of tty->receive_room.
- All bytes must be processed.
-
-receive_buf2() (optional) Called by the low-level driver to hand
- a buffer of received bytes to the ldisc for
- processing. Returns the number of bytes processed.
-
- If both receive_buf() and receive_buf2() are
- defined, receive_buf2() should be preferred.
-
-write_wakeup() May be called at any point between open and close.
- The TTY_DO_WRITE_WAKEUP flag indicates if a call
- is needed but always races versus calls. Thus the
- ldisc must be careful about setting order and to
- handle unexpected calls. Must not sleep.
-
- The driver is forbidden from calling this directly
- from the ->write call from the ldisc as the ldisc
- is permitted to call the driver write method from
- this function. In such a situation defer it.
-
-dcd_change() Report to the tty line the current DCD pin status
- changes and the relative timestamp. The timestamp
- cannot be NULL.
-======================= =======================================================
-
-
-Driver Access
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Line discipline methods can call the following methods of the underlying
-hardware driver through the function pointers within the tty->driver
-structure:
-
-======================= =======================================================
-write() Write a block of characters to the tty device.
- Returns the number of characters accepted. The
- character buffer passed to this method is already
- in kernel space.
-
-put_char() Queues a character for writing to the tty device.
- If there is no room in the queue, the character is
- ignored.
-
-flush_chars() (Optional) If defined, must be called after
- queueing characters with put_char() in order to
- start transmission.
-
-write_room() Returns the numbers of characters the tty driver
- will accept for queueing to be written.
-
-ioctl() Invoke device specific ioctl.
- Expects data pointers to refer to userspace.
- Returns ENOIOCTLCMD for unrecognized ioctl numbers.
-
-set_termios() Notify the tty driver that the device's termios
- settings have changed. New settings are in
- tty->termios. Previous settings should be passed in
- the "old" argument.
-
- The API is defined such that the driver should return
- the actual modes selected. This means that the
- driver function is responsible for modifying any
- bits in the request it cannot fulfill to indicate
- the actual modes being used. A device with no
- hardware capability for change (e.g. a USB dongle or
- virtual port) can provide NULL for this method.
-
-throttle() Notify the tty driver that input buffers for the
- line discipline are close to full, and it should
- somehow signal that no more characters should be
- sent to the tty.
-
-unthrottle() Notify the tty driver that characters can now be
- sent to the tty without fear of overrunning the
- input buffers of the line disciplines.
-
-stop() Ask the tty driver to stop outputting characters
- to the tty device.
-
-start() Ask the tty driver to resume sending characters
- to the tty device.
-
-hangup() Ask the tty driver to hang up the tty device.
-
-break_ctl() (Optional) Ask the tty driver to turn on or off
- BREAK status on the RS-232 port. If state is -1,
- then the BREAK status should be turned on; if
- state is 0, then BREAK should be turned off.
- If this routine is not implemented, use ioctls
- TIOCSBRK / TIOCCBRK instead.
-
-wait_until_sent() Waits until the device has written out all of the
- characters in its transmitter FIFO.
-
-send_xchar() Send a high-priority XON/XOFF character to the device.
-======================= =======================================================
-
-
-Flags
-^^^^^
-
-Line discipline methods have access to tty->flags field containing the
-following interesting flags:
-
-======================= =======================================================
-TTY_THROTTLED Driver input is throttled. The ldisc should call
- tty->driver->unthrottle() in order to resume
- reception when it is ready to process more data.
-
-TTY_DO_WRITE_WAKEUP If set, causes the driver to call the ldisc's
- write_wakeup() method in order to resume
- transmission when it can accept more data
- to transmit.
-
-TTY_IO_ERROR If set, causes all subsequent userspace read/write
- calls on the tty to fail, returning -EIO.
-
-TTY_OTHER_CLOSED Device is a pty and the other side has closed.
-
-TTY_NO_WRITE_SPLIT Prevent driver from splitting up writes into
- smaller chunks.
-======================= =======================================================
-
-
-Locking
-^^^^^^^
-
-Callers to the line discipline functions from the tty layer are required to
-take line discipline locks. The same is true of calls from the driver side
-but not yet enforced.
-
-Three calls are now provided::
-
- ldisc = tty_ldisc_ref(tty);
-
-takes a handle to the line discipline in the tty and returns it. If no ldisc
-is currently attached or the ldisc is being closed and re-opened at this
-point then NULL is returned. While this handle is held the ldisc will not
-change or go away::
-
- tty_ldisc_deref(ldisc)
-
-Returns the ldisc reference and allows the ldisc to be closed. Returning the
-reference takes away your right to call the ldisc functions until you take
-a new reference::
-
- ldisc = tty_ldisc_ref_wait(tty);
-
-Performs the same function as tty_ldisc_ref except that it will wait for an
-ldisc change to complete and then return a reference to the new ldisc.
-
-While these functions are slightly slower than the old code they should have
-minimal impact as most receive logic uses the flip buffers and they only
-need to take a reference when they push bits up through the driver.
-
-A caution: The ldisc->open(), ldisc->close() and driver->set_ldisc
-functions are called with the ldisc unavailable. Thus tty_ldisc_ref will
-fail in this situation if used within these functions. Ldisc and driver
-code calling its own functions must be careful in this case.
-
-
-Driver Interface
-----------------
-
-======================= =======================================================
-open() Called when a device is opened. May sleep
-
-close() Called when a device is closed. At the point of
- return from this call the driver must make no
- further ldisc calls of any kind. May sleep
-
-write() Called to write bytes to the device. May not
- sleep. May occur in parallel in special cases.
- Because this includes panic paths drivers generally
- shouldn't try and do clever locking here.
-
-put_char() Stuff a single character onto the queue. The
- driver is guaranteed following up calls to
- flush_chars.
-
-flush_chars() Ask the kernel to write put_char queue
-
-write_room() Return the number of characters that can be stuffed
- into the port buffers without overflow (or less).
- The ldisc is responsible for being intelligent
- about multi-threading of write_room/write calls
-
-ioctl() Called when an ioctl may be for the driver
-
-set_termios() Called on termios change, serialized against
- itself by a semaphore. May sleep.
-
-set_ldisc() Notifier for discipline change. At the point this
- is done the discipline is not yet usable. Can now
- sleep (I think)
-
-throttle() Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to do flow
- control. Serialization including with unthrottle
- is the job of the ldisc layer.
-
-unthrottle() Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to stop flow
- control.
-
-stop() Ldisc notifier to the driver to stop output. As with
- throttle the serializations with start() are down
- to the ldisc layer.
-
-start() Ldisc notifier to the driver to start output.
-
-hangup() Ask the tty driver to cause a hangup initiated
- from the host side. [Can sleep ??]
-
-break_ctl() Send RS232 break. Can sleep. Can get called in
- parallel, driver must serialize (for now), and
- with write calls.
-
-wait_until_sent() Wait for characters to exit the hardware queue
- of the driver. Can sleep
-
-send_xchar() Send XON/XOFF and if possible jump the queue with
- it in order to get fast flow control responses.
- Cannot sleep ??
