FWIW, I tried the recently released 3.6 kernel on this platform
(IGEPv2, OMAP3-based), and I still see the same problem. Upon Tony's
suggestion, I tried to add some code in board-igep0020.c similar to the
one in board-n8x0.c to do the appropriate UART2 muxing, but it doesn't
seem to improve the situation. I did the following change (note that I
tried with both .name = "uart2_rx_irrx.uart2_rx_irrx" and .name =
"uart3_rx_irrx.uart3_rx_irrx"). On this board, the console is on ttyO2.
This is with the plain omap2plus_defconfig, so CONFIG_OMAP_MUX is
enabled.

Any idea of things to try? This board has been broken since 3.2, so I'd
like to get it fixed at some point :-)

Can you dump the UART mux registers on a working kernel and compare them
to the broken one? (Table 7-4 in the 34xx public TRM[1] will list all
the mux registers.)  Maybe the bootloader code for that board will shed
some light as well since it will be setting the muxing too.

If the console uart is ttyO2 (UART3 in TI docs), then the interesting
registers will be any of the padconf registers in that table that
contain 'uart3'.  e.g. for UART3 RX:

CONTROL_PADCONF_DSS_DATA4 (mode 2)
CONTROL_PADCONF_UART3_RTS_SD (mode 0)
CONTROL_PADCONF_HSUSB0_DATA1  (mode 2)
                              
omap_mux has some useful debugfs output under <debugfs>/omap_mux.  For
example:

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/omap_mux
# cat dss_data4
# cat uart3_rx_irrx
# cat hsusb0_data1

would provide a very useful comparison between a working kernel and a
non-working one.

It seems they are exactly the same, unless my eyes missed something, of course.

Note: the 3.6 kernel is booted with the patch I posted earlier, but it
doesn't make it work any better.

Here is what I have :

Regarding the bootloader, I am not 100% sure what are the relevant
bits, but the UART3 related muxing for this board, done in U-Boot seems
to be:

        MUX_VAL(CP(UART3_TX_IRTX),  (IDIS | PTD | DIS | M0)) /* UART3_TX */\
        MUX_VAL(CP(UART3_RX_IRRX),  (IEN  | PTD | DIS | M0)) /* UART3_RX */\

Does this helps?

Best regards,

Thomas

2011.12 + a few patches to make the NAND of the IGEPv2 rev6 work. Let
me try to build a recent U-Boot (which now includes the SPL for the
IGEP) and see if it improves the situation.

However, I believe that the rule is that the kernel shouldn't depend
too much on initialization done by the bootloader, so it still seems
like an issue to me.

Best regards,

The example I gave was only for the UART3 RX, you should dump the UART3
TX pins as.  Using the omap_mux debugfs, you can see all of the
potential pins where uart3_tx can be routed:

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/omap_mux
# grep -H uart3_tx * |grep signal
dss_data5:signals: dss_data5 | NA | uart3_tx_irtx | NA | gpio_75 | NA | NA | safe_mode
hsusb0_data0:signals: hsusb0_data0 | NA | uart3_tx_irtx | NA | gpio_125 | NA | NA | safe_mode
uart3_tx_irtx:signals: uart3_tx_irtx | NA | NA | NA | gpio_166 | NA | NA | safe_mode

So a 'cat' on dss_data, hsusb0_data0 and uart3_tx_irtx on a working an
non-working kernel should point us in the right direction (assuming of
course, that it's acutally a muxing problem that we're after.)

Yes, that tells me where UART3 is expected to be mux'd on the board.  So
you can ignore the dss_data* and husb_data* files above and focus on
uart3*

So to summarize, in /sys/kernel/debug/omap_mux, just do a 'cat uart3*'
on a working and non-working board and see if there are any differences.

Correct, if the kernel is relying on any bootloader assumptions, it
should be considered a kernel bug.  

We'd really like to remove any bootloader assumptions from the kernel.
This will allow the kernel to be bootloader independent, and make it
easier to support reboot via kexec.

Hi Thomas,

As Enric said, u-boot has SPL and NAND support for IGEP since
v2012.10-rc1. I just tried kernel a 3.6 with u-boot v2012.10-rc2 and
it works for me.

But I agree that the kernel shouldn't do any assumptions about the
bootloader setting correctly the omap mux. Could you please share your
bootloader that makes the kernel to fail (or your IGEP NAND patches on
top of u-boot U-boot 2011.12) so I can reproduce the issue and try to
fix it?

Thanks a lot and best regards,
Javier

Well, UART3 TX seems to be working fine. Do RX and TX have mutual
influence in terms of pin muxing?

Ok, I'll try this out.

Ok, I'm using the X-Loader from git://git.igep.es/pub/scm/x-loader.git,
tag v1.4.4-3, on top of which I apply
http://git.free-electrons.com/training-materials/plain/lab-data/sysdev/u-boot/x-loader-1.4.4-3-igep-nand-support.patch
to add support for the NAND-based IGEPv2 rev6.

In terms of U-Boot, I use U-Boot 2011.12, on top of which I apply
http://git.free-electrons.com/training-materials/plain/lab-data/sysdev/u-boot/u-boot-2011.12-igep-nand-support.patch
to add support for the NAND-based IGEPv2 rev6.

To make things easier if you don't need to rebuild those, I've put
online pre-built binaries of X-Loader and U-Boot I'm using:
http://free-electrons.com/~thomas/pub/igep-serial-problem/.

Thanks,

Thomas

Perfect, I'll try it and let you know if I find a fix for the issue.

Thanks a lot!

Sorry if someone receives this email twice, I had some problems to
send this email and Mail Delivery Subsystem tells me
that the Delivery to the following recipient has been delayed.

Also I tried and works for me which make me think that could be a
hardware issue. Please make sure that pins 6, 8 and 9 of the J990
header are not connected. I'm noticed that some US-to-RS232 converters
had problems with this. If you use the IDC10 to DB9 cable take a look
at this article:

   http://labs.isee.biz/index.php/How_to_setup_the_IDC10_cable

If it's a hardware issue, then , why it worked before 3.2 ? Well, I'm
not sure, but maybe the mux is different for pins of uart1 that are
connected to J990 and causes the problem. If you see at the schematic
you'll see that J990

          x -  10  9 - uart1_rx
uart1_tx -   8   7 - x
gnd       -   6   5 - gnd
          x -   4   3 - uart3_tx
uart3_rx -   2   1 -x

If you use directly a IDC10-to-DB9 without cutting hires from 6 to 10
note that :

   - pin 6 of IDC10 is forced to gnd which corresponds to pin 6 of DB9
which is suposed to be used as DSR (Data Set Ready)
   - pin 8 of IDC10 is connected to uart1_tx which corresponds to pin
8 of DB9 which is suposed to be used as CTS (Clear to Send)
   - pin 9 of IDC10 is connected to uart1_rx which corresponds to pin
9 of DB9 which is suposed to be used as RI (Ring Indicator)

Regards,
    Enric

Hello,

I've booted latest mainline kernel (0b8e74c6) with Thomas provided
pre-built X-Loader and U-Boot binaries and the UART is working fine
for me. So, probably is a hardware issue as Enric said.

Thomas, if want to test latest U-Boot and in case you missed the
discussion, there seems to be a a bug on OMAP3 lowlevel_init and
latest U-Boot SPL is not working on OMAP3 SoCs.

For now, the workaround is to revert commit 63ee53a7 armv7
cpu_init_crit: Simplify code

Best regards,
Javier
