Bluetooth
   

I think the host UART driver ( serial8250 ) should be dealing with the 
handshaking. It is hopefully just a question of getting it configured correctly 
at start up.


This could make things simpler.  If you can configure the serial port for a 
null-modem environment then it might be possible to use the standard program. 


I had assumed it could be configured and that was the reason for suggesting 
stty crtscts -F /dev/ttyS2
A patch was posted back in May 2014 that added has-hw-flow-control to the DTS 
bindings:http://lists.openwall.net/linux-kernel/2014/05/28/673
It doesn't appear to have been 
applied:https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/serial/of-serial.txt
There appears another patch renaming the documentation file from of-serial.txt 
to 8250.txt:https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/25/596That doesn't appear to have 
been applied.
So maybe that is why 3.19 doesn't work as expected. 

Does anyone know the status of hardware flow control for UART on AllWinner SoCs?
