Hi, I'm trying to get systemd to work on an Freescale imx6 device (Yocto 1.8). Everything works, except that the console device (dev-ttymxc1.device) times out after boot (and thus the serial-getty@ttymxc1.service as well):
root@cgtqmx6:~# systemctl status dev-ttymxc1.device ● dev-ttymxc1.device Loaded: loaded Active: inactive (dead) Dec 01 14:58:07 cgtqmx6 systemd[1]: Job dev-ttymxc1.device/start timed out. Dec 01 14:58:07 cgtqmx6 systemd[1]: Timed out waiting for device dev-ttymxc1.device. Dec 01 14:58:07 cgtqmx6 systemd[1]: Job dev-ttymxc1.device/start failed with result 'timeout'. But while the start job for dev-ttymxc1.device is counting down towards timeout, the device is actually present in sysfs and the udev database (no unit files defined for dev-ttymxc1.device): root@cgtqmx6:~# ls /sys/devices/soc0/soc.0/2100000.aips-bus/21e8000.serial/tty/ttymxc1/ close_delay closing_wait custom_divisor dev device flags io_type iomem_base iomem_reg_shift irq line port power subsystem type uartclk uevent xmit_fifo_size root@cgtqmx6:~# udevadm info -e <snip> P: /devices/soc0/soc.0/2100000.aips-bus/21e8000.serial/tty/ttymxc1 N: ttymxc1 E: DEVNAME=/dev/ttymxc1 E: DEVPATH=/devices/soc0/soc.0/2100000.aips-bus/21e8000.serial/tty/ttymxc1 E: MAJOR=207 E: MINOR=17 E: SUBSYSTEM=tty E: TAGS=:systemd: E: USEC_INITIALIZED=1806 And when I login via ssh and run 'systemctl daemon-reload' suddenly the dev-ttymxc1.device is available: root@cgtqmx6:~# systemctl status dev-ttymxc1.device ● dev-ttymxc1.device - /dev/ttymxc1 Follow: unit currently follows state of sys-devices-soc0-soc.0-2100000.aips\x2dbus-21e8000.serial-tty-ttymxc1.device Loaded: loaded Active: active (plugged) Device: /sys/devices/soc0/soc.0/2100000.aips-bus/21e8000.serial/tty/ttymxc1 Any tips why systemd doesn't pick up the console device at boot or how to debug this further will be appreciated. Yocto 1.8 uses systemd 219.
