During the release cycle of v3.17 I've seen sometimes a broken serial console output
on the parisc platform. Interestingly all kernel messages printed by the kernel via printk() show
up correctly, but output from userspace (e.g. by the init process during boot) show
up as random bytes.
Since the printk() output is correct the serial port itself and setup is probably correct.
Is parisc the only arch which has this problem, or are other architectures affected as well?
Maybe someone has an idea what could be wrong?
I did not try to bisect it yet.
Thanks for the bug report.
1. What serial driver is this?
Serial port/driver integrated in NS87560 chip:
SuperIO: Found NS87560 Legacy I/O device at 0000:00:0e.1 (IRQ 68)
SuperIO: Serial port 1 at 0x3f8
SuperIO: Serial port 2 at 0x2f8
SuperIO: Parallel port at 0x378
SuperIO: Floppy controller at 0x3f0
SuperIO: ACPI at 0x7e0
SuperIO: USB regulator enabled
...
Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled
serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 3, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
The source code for this driver is in drivers/parisc/superio.c,
see e.g. function superio_serial_init().
Maybe something is missing in here which was done to the other serial drivers?
Interestingly the *same* kernel don't show this problem on another (older) parisc
machine, but this older machine uses another serial driver:
Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled
2:0:4: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xf0105800 (irq = 18, base_baud = 454545) is a 16550A
5:0:2: ttyS1 at MMIO 0xf0202800 (irq = 25, base_baud = 454545) is a 16550A
This (working) machine is using the drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_gsc.c driver.
2. Regression since when?
Kernel 3.17 (3.16 worked)
3. Full dmesg please
See below.
