MFC 359899: Correct baud rate error calculation.
Shifting right by 1 is not the same as dividing by 2 for signed values. In particular, dividing a signed value by 2 gives the integer ceiling of the (e.g. -5 / 2 == -2) whereas shifting right by 1 always gives the floor (-5 >> 1 == -3).
An embedded board with a 25 Mhz base clock results in an error of -30.5% when used with a baud rate of 115200. Using division, this truncates to -30% and is permitted. Using the shift, this fails and is rejected causing TIOCSETA requests to fail with EINVAL and breaking getty(8).
Using division gives the same error range for both over and under baud rates and also makes the code match the behavior documented in the existing comment about supporting boards with 25 Mhz clocks.

MFC r336623 by mmacy:
Fixes the interrupt storm in UART during the boot on ARMADA38X. The missing attribution of ns8250->busy_detect breaks the UART support.
Original commit log:
Add busy detect quirk to list of console options
This change allows one to set the busy_detect flag required by the synopsys UART at the loader prompt. This is needed by the EPYC 3000 SoC.
This will give users a working console up to the point where getty is required: hw.uart.console="mm:0xfedc9000,rs:2,bd:1"

Restore uart PPS signal capture polarity to its historical norm, and add an option to invert the polarity in software. Also add an option to capture very narrow pulses by using the hardware's MSR delta-bit capability of latching line state changes.
This effectively reverts the mistake I made in r286595 which was based on empirical measurements made on hardware using TTL-level signaling, in which the logic levels are inverted from RS-232. Thus, this re-syncs the polarity with the requirements of RFC 2783, which is writen in terms of RS-232 signaling.
Narrow-pulse mode uses the ability of most ns8250 and similar chips to provide a delta indication in the modem status register. The hardware is able to notice and latch the change when the pulse width is shorter than interrupt latency, which results in the signal no longer being asserted by time the interrupt service code runs. When running in this mode we get notified only that "a pulse happened" so the driver synthesizes both an ASSERT and a CLEAR event (with the same timestamp for each). When the pulse width is about equal to the interrupt latency the driver may intermittantly see both edges of the pulse. To prevent generating spurious events, the driver implements a half-second lockout period after generating an event before it will generate another.

Extend the meaning of the CTLFLAG_TUN flag to automatically check if there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes: - Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask" to "hw.pcic.intr_mask". - Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel. - Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed TUNABLE statements. - Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL(). - Wrapped two very long lines. - Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered. - Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

Wait for DesignWare UART transfers completion before accessing line control
When using DW UART with BUSY detection it is necessary to wait until all serial transfers are finished before manipulating the line control. LCR will not be affected when UART is busy. In addition, if Divisor Latch Access Bit is being set in order to modify UART divisors: 1. We will get BUSY interrupt if interrupts are enabled. 2. Because LCR will not be affected the THR and (even worse) IER contents will be corrupted. This will lead to console hang.

A final test with unmodified code has shown that a delay of 150ms is not giving us a 100% success rate. Bump the delay to 200ms as that seems to do the trick.
Note that during testing the delay was added to uart_bus_attach() in uart_core.c. While having the delay in a different place can change the behaviour, it was not expected. Having to bump the delay with another 50ms could therefore be an indication that the problem can not be solved with delays.

Work-around a timing problem with the ITE IT8513E now that the core calls ns8250_bus_ipend() almost immediately after ns8250_bus_attach(). As it appears, a line break condition is being signalled for almost all received characters due to this. A delay of 150ms seems enough to allow the H/W to settle and to avoid the problem. More analysis is needed, but for now a regression has been addressed.

On those buggy emulated UARTs, the "TX idle" interrupt gets lost; with this workaround, we spinwait for the TX to happen and then send ourselves the interrupt.

The XScale PXA255 has three generally ns16x50 compatible UARTs. One of the variations from normal 16x50 behaviour however is the the use of a normally unused bit of IER to control RX timeout interrupts independently of the generally used RXRDY bit. If this bit is not enabled, we only ever get interrupts when the FIFO is full, never before. This is not very useful when the UART is being used as a console.
In order to support this without causing potential problems on more "normal" 16x50 variants, this change introduces two hints for the uart device, ier_mask and ier_rxbits. These can be used to override which bits get set and cleared when we're enabling and disabling RX interrupts.

Don't use a time-limiting loop that's defined in terms of the baudrate in the putc() method. Likewise, in the getc() method, don't check for received characters with an interval defined in terms of the baudrate. In both cases it works equally well to implement a fixed delay. More importantly, it avoids calculating a delay that's roughly 1/10th the time it takes to send/receive a character. The calculation is costly and happens for every character sent or received, affecting low-level console or debug port performance significantly. Secondly, when the RCLK is not available or unreliable, the delays could disrupt normal operation.
The fixed delay is 1/10th the time it takes to send a character at 230400 bps.

Don't expose the uart_ops structure directly, but instead have it obtained through the uart_class structure. This allows us to declare the uart_class structure as weak and as such allows us to reference it even when it's not compiled-in. It also allows is to get the uart_ops structure by name, which makes it possible to implement the dt tag handling in uart_getenv(). The side-effect of all this is that we're using the uart_class structure more consistently which means that we now also have access to the size of the bus space block needed by the hardware when we map the bus space, eliminating any hardcoding.

For embedded UARTs compatible with the ns8250 family it is possible that the driver clock is identical to the processor or bus clock. This is the case for the PowerQUICC processor. When the clock is high enough, overflows happen in the calculation of the time it takes to send 1/10 of a character, used in delay loops. Fix the overflows so as to fix bugs in the delay loops that can cause either insufficient delays or excessive delays.

It seems that clearing the MCR_IE bit in the modem control register does not reliably prevent the triggering of interrupts for all supported configurations. Thus, the FIFO size probe could cause an interrupt, which could lead to an interrupt storm in the shared interrupt case.
To prevent this, change ns8250_bus_probe() to use the overflow bit in the line status register instead of the RX ready bit in the interrupt identification register to detect whether the FIFO has filled up. This allows us to clear all bits in the interrupt enable register during the probe, which should prevent interrupts reliably. Additionally, the detected FIFO size may be a bit more accurate, because the overflow bit is only set when the FIFO did actually fill up, while interrupts would trigger a bit early.

In uart_intr() loop until all interrupts have been handled. Previously an UART interface could get stuck when a new interrupt condition arose while servicing a previous interrupt. Since an interrupt was already pending, no new interrupt would be triggered.
Avoid infinite recursion by flushing the Rx FIFO and marking an overrun condition when we could not move the data from the Rx FIFO to the receive buffer in toto. Failure to flush the Rx FIFO would leave the Rx ready condition pending.
Note that the SAB 82532 already did this due to the nature of the chip.

Add locking to the hardware drivers. I intended to figure out more precisely where locking would be needed before adding it, but it seems uart(4) draws slightly too much attention to have it without locking for too long. The lock added is a spinlock that protects access to the underlying hardware. As a first and obvious stab at this, each method of the hardware interface grabs the lock. Roughly speaking this serializes the methods. Exceptions are the probe, attach and detach methods.

The uart(4) driver is an universal driver for various UART hardware. It improves on sio(4) in the following areas: o Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port.
Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs.
The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly.
As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the software has gotten.
