Hi, Greg K-H,
I found the scheduler isn't working correct.
When I run an application instead of the shell, and when I call sleep()
inside the application, it hangs.
So I have to investigate about the clock settings first(in dts, etc).
(The serial port is 8250 compatible uart that we've been using).
Thank you.
Chan Kim
