The support for multiple serial interfaces as implemented is mainly
|
||||
intended to allow for modem dial-in / dial-out while still being able
|
||||
to use a serial console on a (different) serial port.
|
||||
|
||||
At the moment, the ports must be split on a SMC and a SCC port on a
|
||||
8xx processor; other configurations are not (yet) supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Support for hardware handshake has not been implemented yet (but is
|
||||
in the works).
|
||||
|
||||
*) The default console depends on the keys pressed:
|
||||
- SMC if keys not pressed (modem not enabled)
|
||||
- SCC if keys pressed (modem enabled)
|
||||
|
||||
*) The console can be switched to SCC by any of the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
setenv stdout serial_scc
|
||||
setenv stdin serial_scc
|
||||
setenv stderr serial_scc
|
||||
|
||||
*) The console can be switched to SMC by any of the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
setenv stdout serial_smc
|
||||
setenv stdin serial_smc
|
||||
setenv stderr serial_smc
|
||||
|
||||
*) If a file descriptor is set to "serial" then the current serial device
|
||||
will be used which, in turn, can be switched by above commands.
|
||||
|
||||
*) The baudrate is the same for all serial devices. But it can be switched
|
||||
just after switching the console:
|
||||
|
||||
setenv sout serial_scc; setenv baudrate 38400
|
||||
|
||||
After that press 'enter' at the SCC console. Note that baudrates <38400
|
||||
are not allowed on LWMON with watchdog enabled (see CFG_BAUDRATE_TABLE in
|
||||
include/configs/lwmon.h).
