Re: [PATCH] Fix STM32F2XX USART data register readout

[Olivier Heriveaux]

If I understand correctly (I'm not a QEmu internals expert), yes this is what happens.

Maybe stm32f2xx_usart_can_receive() is also called but since the USART_SR_RXNE flag is reset before the USART_DR is read, it does not prevent reading the next character.

Best regards,

The bug happens because qemu_chr_fe_accept_input() can cause
stm32f2xx_usart_receive() to be called, right ?

I'll put this in my list of patches to take via target-arm.next for the
7.0 release.
