Thanks for your information share. But my issue should be caused by hardware,
since everything is ok if it runs on other i.mx6 chip. Is your board also based
on i.mx6 chip? If yes, hope you can raise your issue in freescale community or
contact with Andy whose mail address added in CC list fugang.d...@freescale.cm.
We have fix some bugs in UART DMA case.
