linux串口登录 高通,关于高通平台串口调试行为的一点说明

最近遇到一个问题，项目初期阶段,刚开机串口输入输出都正常，高通平台Android O kernel 3.18跑起来大概30-40s串口没有打印输出了，只有输入, eng/userdebug/user都一样。

先看kernel log:[ 4.891514] msm_hsl_console_setup: console setup on port #0

[ 4.896076] console [ttyHSL0] enabled

[ 4.903353] bootconsole [uart0] disabled

[ 4.912299] msm_serial_hsl_init: driver initialized

看下代码kernel/printk/printk.c:register_console/*

* By unregistering the bootconsoles after we enable the real console

* we get the "console xxx enabled" message on all the consoles -

* boot consoles, real consoles, etc - this is to ensure that end

* users know there might be something in the kernel's log buffer that

* went to the bootconsole (that they do not see on the real console)

*/

pr_info("%sconsole [%s%d] enabled\n",

(newcon->flags & CON_BOOT) ? "boot" : "" ,

newcon->name, newcon->index);

ttyHSL0才是real console，bootconsole disable和这个问题没关系。

怀疑被重定向， 杀log相关进程不好使，改脚本去掉log进程服务，删log apk，因bringup阶段版本问题较多，稍耗时。

init.rc会起个console进程:on property:ro.debuggable=1

# Give writes to anyone for the trace folder on debug builds.

# The folder is used to store method traces.

chmod 0773 /data/misc/trace

start console

cmd窗口下ps能看到shell 6825 1 8060 1692 n_tty_read 7f98bac438 S /system/bin/sh

试了下stop console串口就不能输入了，再start console，可以输入但问题还在，dmesg看了下，有个错误：[ 17.338918] init: setpgid failed for console: Operation not permitted

权限问题？ BoardConfig.mk的cmdline加入selinux=permissive，问题还在，看了下是Android O新加的,具体在system/core/init/service.cpp：void Service::SetProcessAttributes() {

// Keep capabilites on uid change.

if (capabilities_.any() && uid_) {

if (prctl(PR_SET_SECUREBITS, SECBIT_KEEP_CAPS | SECBIT_KEEP_CAPS_LOCKED) != 0) {

PLOG(FATAL) << "prtcl(PR_SET_KEEPCAPS) failed for " << name_;

}

}

// TODO: work out why this fails for `console` then upgrade to FATAL.

if (setpgid(0, getpid()) == -1) PLOG(ERROR) << "setpgid failed for " << name_;

浏览kernel/logcat，忽然想到kernel log level， 和Android N对比，确实有差异。

最后到device一看， 居然是msm 默认行为:]
