Which UART are you after? Which processor core would you like to use with it? Michael Williamson
NK 12:54 AM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: Regarding handling UART of MitydspL138 F
Dear sir,
It is given in MitydspL138F VDK datasheet that already UART driver is available in Kernel image. Can you provide more details regarding it as we wanted to use UART in interrupt mode.
with regards,

No problem, it can wait a while.
Sounds like the SOM may have been catered for. Any thoughts on the dev kit or do you need to wait for the designer to get back?
Thanks.

Hi Naveen,
You can use the UPP port (see the tcDspUpp core in the DSP/core library) or use the VPIF (same pins, see the tcDspVpif class) with the 674x core in DSP/BIOS to have the DSP receive data directly.

MW 02:07 PM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: RE: Accessing SPI1 bus
Hi,
To get the spidev device, you need to add an entry for it in your platform baseboard file.
See the recent "industrial I/O board platform file":http://support.criticallink.com/gitweb/?p=linux-davinci.git;a=blob;f=arch/arm/mach-d...
Michael Williamson
MF 01:40 PM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: RE: Accessing SPI1 bus
Nope. I don't see that either.
I am going with the low level register access for now. I have SPI driver code that ran on a C6748 and am porting that. You can gain access to the registers using mmap().
Mary Frantz
GG 12:21 PM MityDSP-L138 (ARM9 Based Platforms) Software Development: RE: Accessing SPI1 bus
Hi Mary,
My guess would be that since in your baseboard file you set the modalias to "M25PE80" as part of the spi_board_info you will get a /dev/M25PE801.1 entry, or something to that affect, instead of /dev/spidev1.1.
