Your assumption is correct. In case the UART should be used on a custom
board with Raspberry Pi Compute Module and a microcontroller this change
is necessary to reference the UART:
&gpio {
// ...
uart0_pins: uart0_pins {
brcm,pins = <36 37>;
brcm,function = <BCM2835_FSEL_ALT2>;
};
}
&uart0 {
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&uart0_pins>;
status = "okay";
};
Thanks
Stefan
