With big endian, I need to access it as 0x8001003. I assume your uart_port's iotype is defined as UPIO_MEM32. UPIO_MEM32 makes 8250 access serial registers using readl/writel (which might be a problem for big-endian), while UPIO_MEM makes 8250 access the registers using readb/writeb. Maybe you should try UPIO_MEM (assuming hardware allows byte access). -- Shmulik Ladkani Jungo Ltd.
