From 5f1017069933489add0c08659673443c9905659e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claudiu Beznea claudiu.beznea.uj@bp.renesas.com Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2025 20:22:48 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] serial: sh-sci: Clean sci_ports[0] after at earlycon exit
The early_console_setup() function initializes sci_ports[0].port with an object of type struct uart_port obtained from the struct earlycon_device passed as an argument to early_console_setup().
Later, during serial port probing, the serial port used as earlycon (e.g., port A) might be remapped to a different position in the sci_ports[] array, and a different serial port (e.g., port B) might be assigned to slot 0. For example:
sci_ports[0] = port B sci_ports[X] = port A
In this scenario, the new port mapped at index zero (port B) retains the data associated with the earlycon configuration. Consequently, after the Linux boot process, any access to the serial port now mapped to sci_ports[0] (port B) will block the original earlycon port (port A).
To address this, introduce an early_console_exit() function to clean up sci_ports[0] when earlycon is exited.
To prevent the cleanup of sci_ports[0] while the serial device is still being used by earlycon, introduce the struct sci_port::probing flag and account for it in early_console_exit().
