[RFC PATCH 0/2] omap-serial: A way to implement modem lines through GPIO

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

 



Hello,

At least in the am3505/3517 CPUs, the built-in uarts only expose the 
RX/TX/RTS/CTS signals. Other signals such as DTR/DSR/RI and DCD,
while very useful when controlling a modem, are not available.

My design has the above mentioned extra signals wired to GPIOs. 
Controlling them through sysfs is possible, but not convenient as I
needed the standard serial port ioctls to work.

There did not seem to be anything in place to do this so I've come up 
with the following two patches which I am using for now.

What do you think? Is there a simpler, more obvious solution?
Did anyone attempt doing something to attain a similar goal in the past?

Best regards,
Raphaël Assénat
