Subject: [PATCH v4 5/7] serial: sh-sci: Skip TDxE clear when hardware clears it automatically
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 18:26:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113-g2ul_sci-v4-5-6815e41d90c5@renesas.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113-g2ul_sci-v4-0-6815e41d90c5@renesas.com>
From: Au Dang <au.dang.jx@renesas.com>
On some SCI variants, the TDxE (Transmit Data Empty) flag in SCxSR is
cleared by hardware when data is written to TDR. Clearing it again from
software via clear_SCxSR() generates a spurious TXI interrupt, causing
the last character to be transmitted twice.
Add a tdxe_auto_clear flag to struct sci_of_data, propagate it to struct
sci_port as has_tdxe_auto_clear, and skip the clear_SCxSR() call in
sci_transmit_chars() and sci_poll_put_char() when it is set. Enable the
flag for the PORT_SCI (of_sci_sci) variant.
