8250: Can I create /dev/ttyS1 and up?

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

 



Hello list,

I have a question about the 8250 driver when used with a device-tree.
I have a system with a xuartps and eight ns16550 compatible devices.
The xuartps is the primary console and has a serial0 alias which gives it
/dev/ttyPS0.
This makes it impossible to give the serial0 alias to one of the ns16550's. I can enter serial1..serial8 in the device-tree, but serial8 is ignored and
the last ns16550 gets /dev/ttyS0.

How am I supposed to properly fix the uarts to a device name?

Kind Regards,
Maarten Brock
