Hello Sascha,
I have tested your change on 2.6.19-rt14 kernel
which I have on hand there. It is only very short
test, but I have not noticed any problems.
In the fact, I think, that it is possible, that
I have noticed some mentioned problem during
my CPU-Freq testing on RT kernels before.
I have noticed some problems sometimes with BusyBox
shell history editing during frequency throttling.
May it be, that RT+changed frequency invoked the problem.
I have some other small fix for i.MX uart there.
Can you add it into patch, or should I send it
as separate one-liner?
If RTS interrupt is caused by RTS senzing logic inside
i.MX UART module the IRQ type cannot be set.
It applies only for interrupts going through GPIO layer.
The problem has been noticed by Konstantin Kletschke
some time ago.
No IRQF_TRIGGER set_type function for IRQ 26 (MPU)
I would not change type to fixed 0, because it could
be possible to use different GPIO MX1 pin for RTS
in the theory. On the other hand it is only for documentation
purposes now, because RTS read code would have to be adjusted
in such case.
Health and success wishes
in year 2007 from
Pavel Pisa
