We are using a custom IMX6ULL board and on the UART serial 2 (UART3, ttymxc2) we have a wireless-chip connected. We push (not very much) ipv6 network traffic over the UART, which mostly seems to work. At a baudrate of 115200 occasionally single bytes are missing (rx on the imx). If it happens, the missing byte is always on the same position of the message - the 33rd byte. We connected a Windows serial adapter onto the UART where we can see the byte which is missing on the Linux side. The missing byte is independent from the sent data, because sometimes the data is complete.
We are using Ubuntu 22.04 and we've already tried custom built Linux Kernels 5.10, 5.15, 6.1 and 6.4. With 5.15 the problem seems to be not that frequent as with 5.10. With 6.1 and 6.4 the problem gets worse, because not only a single byte is missing but multiple in a row.
Changing the baudrate to 57600 seems to eliminate the problem. Also sending to linux with 2 stop-bits (while linux itself has only one configured) seems to work. But both solutions don't make us really happy, because we think 115200 isn't that much so it should work. Are there maybe some dts-configurations like clocks which could solve the problem? Could it has something to do with the rx buffer size? Maybe someone has some ideas - thanks!
