The uart(4) driver is an universal driver for various UART hardware. It improves on sio(4) in the following areas: o Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly. As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the software has gotten.

For embedded UARTs compatible with the ns8250 family it is possible that the driver clock is identical to the processor or bus clock. This is the case for the PowerQUICC processor. When the clock is high enough, overflows happen in the calculation of the time it takes to send 1/10 of a character, used in delay loops. Fix the overflows so as to fix bugs in the delay loops that can cause either insufficient delays or excessive delays.

Don't expose the uart_ops structure directly, but instead have it obtained through the uart_class structure. This allows us to declare the uart_class structure as weak and as such allows us to reference it even when it's not compiled-in. It also allows is to get the uart_ops structure by name, which makes it possible to implement the dt tag handling in uart_getenv(). The side-effect of all this is that we're using the uart_class structure more consistently which means that we now also have access to the size of the bus space block needed by the hardware when we map the bus space, eliminating any hardcoding.

This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs.

- Add a uart_rxready() and corresponding device-specific implementations that can be used to check whether receive data is ready, i.e. whether the subsequent call of uart_poll() should return a char, and unlike uart_poll() doesn't actually receive data. - Remove the device-specific implementations of uart_poll() and implement uart_poll() in terms of uart_getc() and the newly added uart_rxready() in order to minimize code duplication. - In sunkbd(4) take advantage of uart_rxready() and use it to implement the polled mode part of sunkbd_check() so we don't need to buffer a potentially read char in the softc. - Fix some mis-indentation in sunkbd_read_char().

This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly. As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the software has gotten.

Don't use a time-limiting loop that's defined in terms of the baudrate in the putc() method. Likewise, in the getc() method, don't check for received characters with an interval defined in terms of the baudrate. In both cases it works equally well to implement a fixed delay. More importantly, it avoids calculating a delay that's roughly 1/10th the time it takes to send/receive a character. The calculation is costly and happens for every character sent or received, affecting low-level console or debug port performance significantly. Secondly, when the RCLK is not available or unreliable, the delays could disrupt normal operation. The fixed delay is 1/10th the time it takes to send a character at 230400 bps.

Don't expose the uart_ops structure directly, but instead have it obtained through the uart_class structure. This allows us to declare the uart_class structure as weak and as such allows us to reference it even when it's not compiled-in. It also allows is to get the uart_ops structure by name, which makes it possible to implement the dt tag handling in uart_getenv(). The side-effect of all this is that we're using the uart_class structure more consistently which means that we now also have access to the size of the bus space block needed by the hardware when we map the bus space, eliminating any hardcoding.

The uart(4) driver is an universal driver for various UART hardware. It improves on sio(4) in the following areas: o Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs.

I intended to figure out more precisely where locking would be needed before adding it, but it seems uart(4) draws slightly too much attention to have it without locking for too long. The lock added is a spinlock that protects access to the underlying hardware. As a first and obvious stab at this, each method of the hardware interface grabs the lock. Roughly speaking this serializes the methods. Exceptions are the probe, attach and detach methods.

The uart(4) driver is an universal driver for various UART hardware. It improves on sio(4) in the following areas: o Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly. As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the software has gotten.

The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs.

The uart(4) driver is an universal driver for various UART hardware. It improves on sio(4) in the following areas: o Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports.

Add locking to the hardware drivers. I intended to figure out more precisely where locking would be needed before adding it, but it seems uart(4) draws slightly too much attention to have it without locking for too long. The lock added is a spinlock that protects access to the underlying hardware. As a first and obvious stab at this, each method of the hardware interface grabs the lock. Roughly speaking this serializes the methods. Exceptions are the probe, attach and detach methods.

This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly.

Add locking to the hardware drivers. I intended to figure out more precisely where locking would be needed before adding it, but it seems uart(4) draws slightly too much attention to have it without locking for too long. The lock added is a spinlock that protects access to the underlying hardware. As a first and obvious stab at this, each method of the hardware interface grabs the lock. Roughly speaking this serializes the methods. Exceptions are the probe, attach and detach methods.

Allow uart(4)'s ns8250 driver to work with devices whose regshift is > 0. - Rename REG_DL to REG_DLL and REG_DLH. - Always treat DLL and DLH as two separate 8-bit registers instead of one 16-bit register. Additionally, remove the probe for the high 4 bits of IER being 0 and don't assume we can always read/write 0 to/from those bits.

This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly. As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the software has gotten.

It seems that clearing the MCR_IE bit in the modem control register does not reliably prevent the triggering of interrupts for all supported configurations. Thus, the FIFO size probe could cause an interrupt, which could lead to an interrupt storm in the shared interrupt case. To prevent this, change ns8250_bus_probe() to use the overflow bit in the line status register instead of the RX ready bit in the interrupt identification register to detect whether the FIFO has filled up. This allows us to clear all bits in the interrupt enable register during the probe, which should prevent interrupts reliably. Additionally, the detected FIFO size may be a bit more accurate, because the overflow bit is only set when the FIFO did actually fill up, while interrupts would trigger a bit early.

The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with.

In uart_intr() loop until all interrupts have been handled. Previously an UART interface could get stuck when a new interrupt condition arose while servicing a previous interrupt. Since an interrupt was already pending, no new interrupt would be triggered. Avoid infinite recursion by flushing the Rx FIFO and marking an overrun condition when we could not move the data from the Rx FIFO to the receive buffer in toto. Failure to flush the Rx FIFO would leave the Rx ready condition pending. Note that the SAB 82532 already did this due to the nature of the chip.

The uart(4) driver is an universal driver for various UART hardware. It improves on sio(4) in the following areas: o Fully newbusified to allow for memory mapped I/O. This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly.

This is a must for ia64 and sparc64, o Machine dependent code to take full advantage of machine and firm- ware specific ways to define serial consoles and/or debug ports. o Hardware abstraction layer to allow the driver to be used with various UARTs, such as the well-known ns8250 family of UARTs, the Siemens sab82532 or the Zilog Z8530. This is especially important for pc98 and sparc64 where it's common to have different UARTs, o The notion of system devices to unkludge low-level consoles and remote gdb ports and provides the mechanics necessary to support the keyboard on sparc64 (which is UART based). o The notion of a kernel interface so that a UART can be tied to something other than the well-known TTY interface. This is needed on sparc64 to present the user with a device and ioctl handling suitable for a keyboard, but also allows us to cleanly hide an UART when used as a debug port. Following is a list of features and bugs/flaws specific to the ns8250 family of UARTs as compared to their support in sio(4): o The uart(4) driver determines the FIFO size and automaticly takes advantages of larger FIFOs and/or additional features. Note that since I don't have sufficient access to 16[679]5x UARTs, hardware flow control has not been enabled. This is almost trivial to do, provided one can test. The downside of this is that broken UARTs are more likely to not work correctly with uart(4). The need for tunables or knobs may be large enough to warrant their creation. o The uart(4) driver does not share the same bumpy history as sio(4) and will therefore not provide the necessary hooks, tweaks, quirks or work-arounds to deal with once common hardware. To that extend, uart(4) supports a subset of the UARTs that sio(4) supports. The question before us is whether the subset is sufficient for current hardware. o There is no support for multiport UARTs in uart(4). The decision behind this is that uart(4) deals with one EIA RS232-C interface. Packaging of multiple interfaces in a single chip or on a single expansion board is beyond the scope of uart(4) and is now mostly left for puc(4) to deal with. Lack of hardware made it impossible to actually implement such a dependency other than is present for the dual channel SAB82532 and Z8350 SCCs. The current list of missing features is: o No configuration capabilities. A set of tunables and sysctls is being worked out. There are likely not going to be any or much compile-time knobs. Such configuration does not fit well with current hardware. o No support for the PPS API. This is partly dependent on the ability to configure uart(4) and partly dependent on having sufficient information to implement it properly. As usual, the manpage is present but lacks the attention the software has gotten.
