Quick note - specifically, Rafael, this is not currently part of the SPCR specification and should not be considered for inclusion in Linux until that is decided. Once it is determined what the fix for SPCR is, that should then be driven into the component architecture and proposed here.

It was suggested to add a new Microsoft Debug Port Table 2 (DBG2) (the table used to enumerate the various subtypes of serial port covered by the SPCR) 16550 UART subtype that may be needed for some additional platforms, such as those based upon AppliedMicro X-Gene ARMv8 SoCs. This new subtype would be 16550-compatible with 32-bit access. There already exists 32-bit variant ACPI_DBG2_ARM_SBSA_32BIT of SBSA console ACPI_DBG2_ARM_SBSA_GENERIC. This patch introduces it to Linux kernel. Signed-off-by: Aleksey Makarov <aleksey.makarov@linaro.org> --- include/acpi/actbl2.h | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
