v3 cover Add CTS/RTS gpio support to STM32 UART

From: Manivannan Sadhasivam <[email protected]>

Hello,

This patchset adds CTS/RTS gpio support to STM32 UART controller. Eventhough the UART controller supports using dedicated CTS/RTS gpios, sometimes we need to use different set of gpios for flow control.

This is necessary for the upcoming STM32MP1 based board called Stinger96 IoT-Box. On that board, a bluetooth chip is connected to one of the UART controller but the CTS/RTS lines got swapped mistakenly. So this patchset serves as a workaround for that hardware bug and also supports the usecase of using any gpio for CTS/RTS functionality. As per the sugggestion provided by Andy for v1, I've now switched to mctrl_gpio driver.

This patchset has been validated with Stinger96 IoT-Box connected to Murata WiFi-BT combo chip.

Thanks,
Mani

Changes in v3:

* Added Andy's reviewed-by tag
* Fixed minor issues spotted by Fabrice

Changes in v2:

As per the review by Andy:

* Switched to mctrl_gpio driver instead of using custom CTS/RTS implementation
* Removed the use of software flow control terminology.

PATCH v3 1/2 dt-bindings: serial: Document CTS/RTS gpios in STM32 UART

From: Manivannan Sadhasivam <[email protected]>

Document the use of CTS/RTS gpios for flow control in STM32 UART controller. These properties can be used instead of 'st,hw-flow-ctrl' for making use of any gpio pins for flow control instead of dedicated pins. It should be noted that both CTS/RTS and 'st,hw-flow-ctrl' properties cannot co-exist in a design.

Perhaps "st,hw-flow-ctrl" should be deprecated, in favor of the standard "uart-has-rtscts" property?
Of course the driver needs to gain support for the latter first.

You're fully right, the patch to deprecate "st, hw-flow-ctrl" and introduce generic "uart-has-rtscts" property in the driver is ready and will be sent this week on top of Mani patch.

PATCH v3 2/2 tty: serial: Add modem control gpio support for STM32 UART

In reply to [email protected]

From: Manivannan Sadhasivam <[email protected]>

STM32 UART controllers have the built in modem control support using dedicated gpios which can be enabled using 'st,hw-flow-ctrl' flag in DT. But there might be cases where the board design need to use different gpios for modem control.

For supporting such cases, this commit adds modem control gpio support to STM32 UART controller using mctrl_gpio driver.
