Subject: RE: [PATCH v3 2/2] serial:sunplus-uart:Add Sunplus SoC UART Driver
Hi, Andy Shevchenko :
I may not fully understand all your comments.
But most of them I will modify when next submit.
I try to answer all your comments below.
And also have some question about some of your comments.
Thanks
Regards,
Hammer

Will add COMPILE_TEST for it.

No , it is a single chip, not 8250 compatible.
I plan to use 'ttySUP' for Sunplus SoC UART.
We define PORT_SUNPLUS 123 at /include/uapi/linux/serial_core.h
Is that ok?

Can I keep UART_NR in sunplus-uart.c ?
If all uart driver define CONFIG_xxx_UART_NR in Kconfig.
Kconfig will get big very fast.
In sunplus-uart.c just only one line code.
In Kconfig takes 8 ~ 10 line code.

It is define for struct console { }
I will move it to close to struct console { }

API of_ioremap(res, offset, sizeof(xx), "xxx") can do it.
But we didn't use reg-names for it in dts.
I think it is better keep orginal platform_get_resource() + devm_ioremap_resource().

Ok, thanks for the information. I will add COMPILE_TEST in Kconfig.
