[PATCH RESEND 0/8] serial: 8250: support hw-based RS485 direction control

From: Wolfram Sang
Date: Fri Dec 09 2011 - 12:09:30 EST


Some 8250-variants control the direction pin for RS485 in hardware. Linux has
RS485 support these days, so update the 8250-driver to adhere to that.

Code is based on 3.2-rc4, tested on a OMAP-based custom board with a 16V2750.
A git tree can be found here:

git://git.pengutronix.de/git/wsa/linux-2.6.git 8250_rs485

There is no code change since the initial post of this series. I updated some
of the patch descriptions, though. A kind-of-ack from Claudio can be found here
[1]. Please consider for inclusion.

Thanks and regards,

Wolfram
