+ * productid=0x0232) (used in a datacable called KQ-U8A)
+ *
+ * Supports full modem status lines, break, hardware flow control. Does not
+ * support software flow control, since I do not know how to enable it in hw.
+ *
+ * This driver is a essentially new implementation. I initially dug
+ * into the old ark3116.c driver and suddenly realized the ark3116 is
+ * a 16450 with a USB interface glued to it. See comments at the

+/*
+ * The following describes what I learned from studying the old
+ * ark3116.c driver, disassembling the windows driver, and some lucky
+ * guesses. Since I do not have any datasheet or other
+ * documentation, inaccuracies are almost guaranteed.
+ *
+ * Some specs for the ARK3116 can be found here:
+ * http://web.archive.org/web/20060318000438/
+ * www.arkmicro.com/en/products/view.php?id=10
+ * On that page, 2 GPIO pins are mentioned: I assume these are the
+ * OUT1 and OUT2 pins of the UART, so I added support for those
+ * through the MCR. Since the pins are not available on my hardware,
+ * I could not verify this.
+ * Also, it states there is "on-chip hardware flow control". I have
+ * discovered how to enable that. Unfortunately, I do not know how to
+ * enable XON/XOFF (software) flow control, which would need support
+ * from the chip as well to work. Because of the wording on the web
+ * page there is a real possibility the chip simply does not support
+ * software flow control.
+ *
+ * I got my ark3116 as part of a mobile phone adapter cable. On the
+ * PCB, the following numbered contacts are present:
+ *
+ * 1:- +5V
+ * 2:o DTR
+ * 3:i RX
+ * 4:i DCD
+ * 5:o RTS
+ * 6:o TX
+ * 7:i RI
+ * 8:i DSR
+ * 10:- 0V
+ * 11:i CTS
+ *
+ * On my chip, all signals seem to be 3.3V, but 5V tolerant. But that
+ * may be different for the one you have ;-).
+ *
+ * The windows driver limits the registers to 0-F, so I assume there
+ * are actually 16 present on the device.
+ *
+ * On an UART interrupt, 4 bytes of data come in on the interrupt
+ * endpoint. The bytes are 0xe8 IIR LSR MSR.
+ *
+ * The baudrate seems to be generated from the 12MHz crystal, using
+ * 4-times subsampling. So quot=12e6/(4*baud). Also see description
+ * of register E.
+ *
+ * Registers 0-7:
+ * These seem to be the same as for a regular 16450. The FCR is set
+ * to UART_FCR_DMA_SELECT (0x8), I guess to enable transfers between
+ * the UART and the USB bridge/DMA engine.
+ *
+ * Register 8:
+ * By trial and error, I found out that bit 0 enables hardware CTS,
+ * stopping TX when CTS is +5V. Bit 1 does the same for RTS, making
+ * RTS +5V when the 3116 cannot transfer the data to the USB bus
+ * (verified by disabling the reading URB). Note that as far as I can
+ * tell, the windows driver does NOT use this, so there might be some
+ * hardware bug or something.
+ *
+ * According to a patch provided here
+ * https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/200907261419.50702.linux@rainbow-software.org
+ * the ARK3116 can also be used as an IrDA dongle. Since I do not have
+ * such a thing, I could not investigate that aspect. However, I can
+ * speculate ;-).
+ *
+ * - IrDA encodes data differently than RS232. Most likely, one of
+ * the bits in registers 9..E enables the IR ENDEC (encoder/decoder).
+ * - Depending on the IR transceiver, the input and output need to be
+ * inverted, so there are probably bits for that as well.
+ * - IrDA is half-duplex, so there should be a bit for selecting that.
+ *
+ * This still leaves at least two registers unaccounted for. Perhaps
+ * The chip can do XON/XOFF or CRC in HW?
+ *
+ * Register 9:
+ * Set to 0x00 for IrDA, when the baudrate is initialised.
+ *
+ * Register A:
+ * Set to 0x01 for IrDA, at init.
+ *
+ * Register B:
+ * Set to 0x01 for IrDA, 0x00 for RS232, at init.
+ *
+ * Register C:
+ * Set to 00 for IrDA, at init.
+ *
+ * Register D:
+ * Set to 0x41 for IrDA, at init.
+ *
+ * Register E:
+ * Somekind of baudrate override. The windows driver seems to set
+ * this to 0x00 for normal baudrates, 0x01 for 460800, 0x02 for 921600.
+ * Since 460800 and 921600 cannot be obtained by dividing 3MHz by an integer,
+ * it could be somekind of subdivisor thingy.
+ * However,it does not seem to do anything: selecting 921600 (divisor 3,
+ * reg E=2), still gets 1 MHz. I also checked if registers 9, C or F would
+ * work, but they don't.
+ *
+ * Register F: unknown
