[U-Boot-Users] U-boot on Avila GW2355 platform : UART not working
Hi,
Has anybody done the u-boot porting on Avila platforms. I have GW2355, which is based on IXP425 CPU.
I have used the existing IXDP425 support from the u-boot, and could get the console messages till the prompt. But the problem is I could not write anything in the console. I could see that the serial_getc() is looping around to get a character in the UART receive buffer. Since the "data ready bit" is not set, the loop is like a forever type.
Any idea on this matter ?.
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Mahesh.
Mahesh,
I am not aware of the GW2355 and if it was a custom design since Gateworks does do custom boards. For their current "retail" offerings I had posted a patch a few months ago:

Hope it helps.

Hi Ranjit,
Could you resend your patch rebase on the current tree?
and create a board specific file for Avila not a hack in ixdp425 board.
Best Regards, J.

Jean-Christophe,
1. Do you want the patch against the Xscale custodian tree or the mainline ? 2. Do you want me to create a separate directory under board/ ?
Thanks, -Ranjit
