    MIPS: Malta: Do not byte-swap accesses to the CBUS UART · 9a936d6c
    Maciej W. Rozycki authored
    Correct big-endian accesses to the CBUS UART, a Malta on-board discrete
    TI16C550C part wired directly to the system controller's device bus, and
    do not use byte swapping with the 32-bit accesses to the device.
    
    The CBUS is used for devices such as the boot flash memory needed early
    on in system bootstrap even before PCI has been initialised.  Therefore
    it uses the system controller's device bus, which follows the endianness
    set with the CPU, which means no byte-swapping is ever required for data
    accesses to CBUS, unlike with PCI.
    
    The CBUS UART uses the UPIO_MEM32 access method, that is the `readl' and
    `writel' MMIO accessors, which on the MIPS platform imply byte-swapping
    with PCI systems.  Consequently the wrong byte lane is accessed with the
    big-endian configuration and the UART is not correctly accessed.
    
    As it happens the UPIO_MEM32BE access method makes use of the `ioread32'
    and `iowrite32' MMIO accessors, which still use `readl' and `writel'
    respectively, however they byte-swap data passed, effectively cancelling
    swapping done with the accessors themselves and making it suitable for
    the CBUS UART.
    
    Make the CBUS UART switch between UPIO_MEM32 and UPIO_MEM32BE then,
    based on the endianness selected.  With this change in place the device
    is correctly recognised with big-endian Malta at boot, along with the
    Super I/O devices behind PCI:
    
    Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 5 ports, IRQ sharing enabled
    printk: console [ttyS0] disabled
    serial8250.0: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
    printk: console [ttyS0] enabled
    printk: bootconsole [uart8250] disabled
    serial8250.0: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
    serial8250.0: ttyS2 at MMIO 0x1f000900 (irq = 20, base_baud = 230400) is a 16550A
