Subject: Continuing UCC UART woes
Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2010 06:54:59 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C2355A3.8000708@mlbassoc.com> (raw)
I thought I had this working, but it seems to only work for UCC3.
Sadly, I can't get it to work on UCC4/UCC5/UCC8 at all.
Starting with UCC4, I have:
/* ttyQE0 (UCC4) */
serial_qe0: serial@3200 {
device_type = "serial";
compatible = "ucc_uart";
cell-index = <4>;
reg = <0x3200 0x200>;
interrupts = <35>;
interrupt-parent = <&qeic>;
port-number = <0>;
rx-clock-name = "brg9";
tx-clock-name = "brg10";
soft-uart;
};
With this setup, I can receive characters from the device, but
no characters ever go out. Same behaviour as before - the output
descriptors get filled, but no action seems to be taken, no interrupts,
etc. Except randomly there will be output! For example, if I
connect to the port with minicom, what I type is received by /dev/ttyQE2.
On some rare occasions, what I type is also echoed back, but when
this happens, it's only the first couple of characters, then nothing.
I verified that the CMXUCR registers are being set per the DTS
as well as the BRG registers. They all look correct:
ucc_set_qe_mux_rxtx - CMX: 0x000a0000
root@ppc_target:~ stty </dev/ttyQE0 38400
qe_setbrg - BRG: fddfd660 = 0x000106b6, CLK = 132000000, RATE = 9600, MULTIPLIER = 16
qe_setbrg - BRG: fddfd664 = 0x000106b5, CLK = 132000000, RATE = 9600, MULTIPLIER = 1
qe_setbrg - BRG: fddfd660 = 0x000101aa, CLK = 132000000, RATE = 38400, MULTIPLIER = 16
qe_setbrg - BRG: fddfd664 = 0x00011ada, CLK = 132000000, RATE = 38400, MULTIPLIER = 1
I've also tried this on UCC5 & UCC8 which show the identical
behaviour - input works, output does not. I've tried running
with only a single soft UART (UCC4) as well as having all three
configured. No changes seen.
At this point, I'm using the stock driver from 2.6.33.3
One thing I noticed is that the firmware patch seems quite old.
I got the firmware package from http://opensource.freescale.com/firmware/
We were also told (by FreeScale) to look at https://www.freescale.com/webapp/Download?colCode=QERAMPKG
Looking at these two packages, it's unclear that they match. Certainly
the dates are very different:

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
