serial port over i2c

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For an embedded project, I have 10-15 ARM based Linux systems (slaves)
connected to a another ARM based Linux system (master) via the i2c
bus.

I would like to be able to create a serial console from the master to
each of the slaves using only the i2c bus. Is there a way to do this
with the existing i2c code in the kernel i.e. any way to create a
virtual serial port that runs over the i2c bus? If such a method
exists, does it support any sort of software flow control?

If no such method exists, is there any reason why such an
implementation is not feasible?
