At the default TX trigger level of 2 in non-DMA mode (meaning that an interrupt is generated when less than 2 characters are left in the FIFO), we have observed frequent buffer underruns at 115200 Baud on an i.MX8M Nano. This can cause communication issues if the receiving side expects a continuous transfer. Increasing the level to 8 makes the UART trigger an interrupt earlier, giving the kernel enough time to refill the FIFO, at the cost of triggering one interrupt per ~24 instead of ~30 bytes of transmitted data (as the i.MX UART has a 32 byte FIFO).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
