To make sure the panic and the reset messages will go out, console flush()

Sleep periods do not work in early u-boot phase when timer driver is not
initialized yet.

Is flush implemented widely?
Pali wrote that flush function and here was his comment on the
referenced thread:
"Moreover there is already new function named flush() which
does "wait until stdout message was sent" and can be used instead of
those sleeps. I have already did it on some places (see git history for
flush function) but seems that you find some more."
So I think the answer is not yet widely implemented.
I just checked and it seems it's supported for all platforms using
DM_SERIAL when the serial driver supports the pending() function:
drivers/serial/serial-uclass.c:
#ifdef CONFIG_CONSOLE_FLUSH_SUPPORT
static void _serial_flush(struct udevice *dev)
{
struct dm_serial_ops *ops = serial_get_ops(dev);
if (!ops->pending)
return;
while (ops->pending(dev, false) > 0)
;
}
#endif
So AFAICT it's implemented widely. Not sure, why
CONFIG_CONSOLE_FLUSH_SUPPORT was introduced. It's enabled by default
and should be available in all cases IMHO.
Thanks,
Stefan
