From: Kumar Gala Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2006 21:34:35 +0000 (+0000) Subject: [SERIAL] 8250 serial console update uart_8250_port ier X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f5968b37b3ad35b682b574b578843a0361218aff;p=linux-beck.git [SERIAL] 8250 serial console update uart_8250_port ier On some embedded PowerPC (MPC834x) systems an extra byte would some times be required to flush data out of the fifo. serial8250_console_write() was updating the IER in hardware without also updating the copy in uart_8250_port. This causes issues functions like serial8250_start_tx() and __stop_tx() to misbehave.
