Re: [U-Boot] UART2 Console in u-boot
hi, I got things working on UART2 as consolebut i still have issues in relocating.. its problem in my hardware...so things are going on well... thank u Mr.Stefan for the help extended Thanks Regards, Prathika R prathika wrote: hi, i did add the UART2 in the serial multi infrastructure at the end of my serial.c. i have also configured GPIO registers for enabling UART2 Tx and Rx lines. As I understand, these lines are also multiplexed with the boot strap lines of the PowerPC 440EP. Will this create any issue in the performance? As I already mentioned I have enabled #define CONFIG_UART2_CONSOLE and #define UART2_BASECFG_PERIPHERAL_BASE + 0x500 You have mentioned to enable the UART2 as default stdin and stdout...where do I enable that??

I did some patch up work on UART0 lines and tested my u-boot porting. Ah, I though you wanted the console on UART1. Ok, then my solution does not work for you.

Best would be to add the 3rd UART (UART2) to the SERIAL_MULTI infrastructure (see end of serial.c) and use this device as stdin/stdout/.. in your default environment.

hi stefan, i made just changed few things in yosemite files and it worked for me. you have mentioned to use UART2 device as stdin/stdout/... in my default environment... where can i mention my default stdin and stdout Thanks Regards, Prathika R Stefan Roese wrote: On Friday 17 April 2009, prathika wrote: i have ported u-boot this way to my board with few changes in the u-boot source code and the board is up and i have tested stand alone application execution also.

[U-Boot] UART2 Console in u-boot
hi all, this might a little silly question. but still wanted to confirm with you all. i have a board with PPC440 EP where I load u-boot configuring for yosemite as my design is similar to that. I want the console to configured for the UART's second channel. Is it enough if I change the base address to second channel..Because there are UART base address defined only for UART0 and UART1 even if CONFIG_SERIAL_MULTI is defined. Some one please clarify my doubt. Thanks Regards, Prathika R ___ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot

You shouldn't just change an existing board configuration but port U-Boot to your board. In nearly all cases the differences to the eval boards are too big to just change things in the eval board files. And you have no chance of upstream acceptance this way.
