The identified code path is as +follows: + +uart_add_one_port() -> + serial_ctrl_register_port() -> + serial_core_register_port() -> + serial_core_port_device_add() -> + serial_base_port_add() -> + device_add() -> + bus_probe_device() -> + device_initial_probe() -> + __device_attach() -> + // ... + if (dev->p->dead) { + // ... + } else if (dev->driver) { + // ... + } else { + // ... + pm_request_idle(dev); + // ... + } + +The earlycon device clocks are enabled by the bootloader. However, the +pm_request_idle() call in __device_attach() disables the SCI port clocks +while earlycon is still active. + +The earlycon write function, serial_console_write(), calls +sci_poll_put_char() via serial_console_putchar(). If the SCI port clocks +are disabled, writing to earlycon may sometimes cause the SR.TDFE bit to +remain unset indefinitely, causing the while loop in sci_poll_put_char() +to never exit. On single-core SoCs, this can result in the system being +blocked during boot when this issue occurs. + +To resolve this, increment the runtime PM usage counter for the earlycon +SCI device before registering the UART port. + +Fixes: 0b0cced19ab1 ("serial: sh-sci: Add CONFIG_SERIAL_EARLYCON support") +Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org +Signed-off-by: Claudiu Beznea <claudiu.beznea.uj@bp.renesas.com> +Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250116182249.3828577-6-claudiu.beznea.uj@bp.renesas.com +Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> +Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> +--- + drivers/tty/serial/sh-sci.c | 16 ++++++++++++++++ + 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+) + +--- a/drivers/tty/serial/sh-sci.c ++++ b/drivers/tty/serial/sh-sci.c +@@ -3359,6 +3359,22 @@ static int sci_probe_single(struct platf + + if (sci_uart_earlycon && sci_ports[0].port.mapbase == sci_res->start) { + /* ++ * In case: ++ * - this is the earlycon port (mapped on index 0 in sci_ports[]) and ++ * - it now maps to an alias other than zero and ++ * - the earlycon is still alive (e.g., "earlycon keep_bootcon" is ++ * available in bootargs) ++ * ++ * we need to avoid disabling clocks and PM domains through the runtime ++ * PM APIs called in __device_attach().
