Not now I'm going to use RS485 working on the kernel 4.1 . ( I used 3.8 before ) .
Robert.N the patches are not exactly what we want for the beaglebone black ( 8250_fintek 8250_lpc18xx ) ; correct me if I'm wrong. And most of the time we don't use the hardware control of the PIN, We use other Pins to control the DE/RE . Floriant, I don't have time yet to work on this case, ( maybe on december ). But could you do some test on your own ? That the official documentation of the RS485 with the kernel 4.1 : http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/Documentation/serial/serial-rs485.txt?v=4.1 Also I remember that the kernel 4.1 is build by default with not the OMAP configured, you need to build the kernel yourself : git clone https://github.com/RobertCNelson/bb-kernel.git ...... and activate omap as a serial driver.
