I guess I'm wrong person here. The DM code is a complete black box to me. Nevertheless, I may test any provided fix / debug / etc patch by request.
And I think it's fair to investigate by the one who made a regression in the first place.
Given that we have conflicting breakages, we need to debug Edison.
I would glad to test any suggested change or debug patch!
Does it enable the debug UART?
If I am not mistaken, it does not.
Looks like you are right. If you know the address you could do that - see minnowmax for an example.
Please suggest what's the best approach to proceed.
I think I understand what happened, and Wolfgang's patch *is* a culprit.
In serial_intel_mid.c we setup a divisor before probing the actual device. Now, since the address retrieving has been moved further in the initialization, we are writing to unknown registers and thus don't properly initialize hardware.
So, the proper fix would be in my opinion to introduce a call back or some other way to make ordering possible, like registering hw_init callback in probe which will be called in the ns16550, or even do this as a callback for all serial class drivers.
I don't dare to dive into this anticipating that crap will hit the fan. So, please, who is knowing serial code, fix this asap!
