UART

Introduction

AIO-1126-JD4 supports UART1, UART3, and UART4 interfaces

DTS Configuration

File path: "kernel/arch/arm/boot/dts/rv1126-firefly-rk809.dtsi"

   &uart1 {
           status = "okay";
   };

   &uart3 {
           pinctrl-0 = <&uart3m2_xfer &uart3m2_ctsn &uart3m2_rtsn>;
           status = "okay";
   };

   &uart4 {
           pinctrl-0 = <&uart4m1_xfer>;
           status = "okay";
   };

After configuring the serial port, the nodes corresponding to the
hardware interface on the software are:

   UART1:  /dev/ttyS1
   UART3:  /dev/ttyS3
   UART4:  /dev/ttyS4

Send And Receive Verification

Users can use different host USB to serial port adapters to send and
receive data to the serial port of the development board according to
different interfaces. For example, the debugging steps of UART1 are as
follows:

(1) Development board sends, host receives

   # Host terminal executes first:
   # /dev/ttyUSB0 is the node of host serial port adapter, modify according to actual situation
   cat /dev/ttyUSB0

   # Development board debug serial port terminal executes:
   # /dev/ttyS1 is UART1 node
   echo "firefly UART1 test..." > /dev/ttyS1

The host terminal can receive the string "firefly UART1 test..."

(2) Host sends, development board receives

   # Development board debug serial port terminal executes first:
   # /dev/ttyS1 is UART1 node
   busybox  stty -echo -F /dev/ttyS1       # Turn off echo
   cat /dev/ttyS1

   # Host terminal execution:
   # /dev/ttyUSB0 is the node of the host serial port adapter, modify according to the actual situation
   echo "firefly UART1 test..." > /dev/ttyUSB0

The development board debugging serial port terminal can receive the
string "firefly UART1 test..."
