From: Claudiu Beznea <claudiu.beznea.uj@bp.renesas.com>
On the Renesas RZ/G3S, when doing suspend to RAM, the uart_suspend_port()
is called. The uart_suspend_port() calls 3 times the
struct uart_port::ops::tx_empty() before shutting down the port.
According to the documentation, the struct uart_port::ops::tx_empty()
API tests whether the transmitter FIFO and shifter for the port is
empty.
The Renesas RZ/G3S SCIFA IP reports the number of data units stored in the
transmit FIFO through the FDR (FIFO Data Count Register). The data units
in the FIFOs are written in the shift register and transmitted from there.
The TEND bit in the Serial Status Register reports if the data was
transmitted from the shift register.
In the previous code, in the tx_empty() API implemented by the sh-sci
driver, it is considered that the TX is empty if the hardware reports the
TEND bit set and the number of data units in the FIFO is zero.
According to the HW manual, the TEND bit has the following meaning:
0: Transmission is in the waiting state or in progress.
1: Transmission is completed.
It has been noticed that when opening the serial device w/o using it and
then switch to a power saving mode, the tx_empty() call in the
uart_port_suspend() function fails, leading to the "Unable to drain
transmitter" message being printed on the console. This is because the
TEND=0 if nothing has been transmitted and the FIFOs are empty. As the
TEND=0 has double meaning (waiting state, in progress) we can't
determined the scenario described above.
Add a software workaround for this. This sets a variable if any data has
been sent on the serial console (when using PIO) or if the DMA callback has
been called (meaning something has been transmitted).

This is a misnomer. It suggests to be set only during the first TX. What
about ::did_tx, ::performed_tx, ::transmitted, or alike?

This is too late IMO. The first in-flight dma won't be accounted in
sci_tx_empty(). From DMA submit up to now.

So perhaps check if there is a TX DMA running here too?

I chose this naming as this was the scenario I discovered it didn't work.
Reproducible though these steps:
1/ open the serial device (w/o running any TX/RX)
2/ call tx_empty()
What

I have nothing against any of these. Can you please let me know if you have
a preferred one?

If it's in-flight we can't determine it's status anyway with one variable.
We can set this variable later but it wouldn't tell the truth as the TX
might be in progress anyway or may have been finished?
The hardware might help with this though the TEND bit. According to the HW
manual, the TEND bit has the following meaning:
0: Transmission is in the waiting state or in progress.
1: Transmission is completed.
But the problem, from my point of view, is that the 0 has double meaning.
I noticed the tx_empty() is called in kernel multiple times before
declaring TX is empty or not. E.g., uart_suspend_port() call it 3 times,
uart_wait_until_sent() call it in a while () look with a timeout. There is
the uart_ioctl() which calls it though uart_get_lsr_info() only one time
but I presumed the user space might implement the same multiple trials
approach before declaring it empty.
Because of this I considered it wouldn't be harmful for the scenario you
described "The first in-flight dma won't be accounted in sci_tx_empty()"
as the user may try again later to check the status. For this reason I also
chose to have no extra locking around this variable.
Please let me know if you consider otherwise.

FWIW both gemini and chatgpt answered by "tx_occurred" to my question.
