Hello all, first of all I introduce myself: I am Paolo Bernini and I
am a student of University of Pisa.
While working on my thesis I wrote a real time driver for i.MX
special serial devices based on current implementation of 16550A. It
is very simple, it has several limitations and it is tested only for
i.MX27 processors, but it should support any i.MX processor if
supplied of their memory map of the devices.
Actually it allocate only one device and the only way to choose
which, is by in code constraints definitions but it can be easily
enhanced, I think.
If you are interested I can send it to you as is.
Thanks.
Hi,
I suspect this serial driver would interest many users of the imx
architecture, so, could you send it as a patch against the head branch?

Here it is.
Unfortunately I was unable to include the new source in the patch so I send
them as separate files.
You should place them in the directory ksrc/drivers/serial/
Note that I experienced problems with data alignment disagreement between
kernel and user code; problems that I solved with a -fpack-struct=4 in the
CFLAGS of the kernel.
As far I know, with the new rtdm structures this issue should not be present
anymore, but tests has to be done.
The driver is very experimental and note that some of the features defined for
standard serial devices aren't supported by the imx physical device.
