Hm, it seems that, after all, cpm_uart works fine without any board specific code whatsoever. Sorry about the fuss. My mistake Regards Alex On Tue, 17 Jul 2007 14:55:30 +0300, Alexandros Kostopoulos [off-list ref] wrote:
Hi all, I was wondering, since arch/powerpc is now based on device trees, shouldn't the cpm_uart driver (or at least a branch of it for arch/powerpc) be changed to use of_platform_bus_type instead of platform_bus_type? In my opinion, cpm_uart driver should take all its configuration (uart address base, ints etc) from dts (via the of_platform code) without any intervention from board specific code. In any case, given the current situation, how can I pass cpm_uart the address/irq of the uarts? by hardcoding it in my board specific code? mpc82xx_ads.c doesn't seem to have such code, and I was wondering how SCC uarts work in this platform? Who initializes them? thank you Alex
