Hi Alan,
your commit commit 67cc0161ecc9ebee6eba4af6cbfdba028090b1b9
"specialix - remove private speed decoding" converted the variable baud
from an index in the array baud_table[] to containing the baud value
itself.
Unfortunately, it contains at least two bugs:
The Coverity checker spotted that the following line was forgotten:
baud = (baud_table[baud] + 5) / 10; /* Estimated CPS */
BTW: After the trivial fix, baud_table[] could be removed.
While looking at the patch, I noticed it contains another bug that is
not that easy to fix:
- if (baud == 15) {
+ if (baud == 38400) {
if ((port->flags & ASYNC_SPD_MASK) == ASYNC_SPD_HI)
baud ++;
if ((port->flags & ASYNC_SPD_MASK) == ASYNC_SPD_VHI)
baud += 2;
}
Increasing the index for baud_table[] by 1 or 2 is quite different from
increasing baud by 1 or 2.
