Specifically, when an application requested a baud rate of 115200, the baud rate actually used was 123600 (or thereabouts), and when requesting a baud rate of 921600, the baud rate actually used was 1000000 (which this card isn't supposed to even be capable of). I am using the official vendor driver for this card, via a DKMS wrapper package that I wrote myself. The wrapper can be found at https://github.com/uecasm/mxser.git (and a link to the vendor code can be found there too). It appears that even loading the 8250_moxa driver causes the fault -- if it is loaded at boot, then I rmmod it and modprobe the mxupcie vendor driver, the fault remains. (Trying to use the 8250_moxa driver by itself does not work; while it recognises the hardware it does not appear to communicate at any baud rate.) I can work around the problem by blacklisting the 8250_moxa driver. The problem also does not occur with linux-image-4.9.0-2-amd64 (4.9.13-1 2017-02-27), which is the kernel I had been using prior to this -- it appears that the 8250_moxa driver was disabled in that configuration. So it appears this driver is faulty and I would suggest disabling it again. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init)
