Ports UART1, UART2, UART4, UART5 are available on the BeagleBone's P8 and P9, 
and UART0 is on the debugging header. UART3 is also available, but only the TX 
line I think.
These can be accessed through the linux driver at `/dev/ttyS0`...`/dev/ttyS5`

Additionally, you have uart0 from the PRUSS.

I thought the header contained outputs for the UART?  The driver will control 
interfaces for the serial chip, ttyUSB0 probably won't be included in that. 
What type of device are you sending data to over serial?

Hi,

In BeagleBone there is no direct serial interface available.
However, we use Serial over USB (ttyUSB0) to connect to minicom.
In this case it is possible to use this interface over Xenomai and
check latency improvement?


Thanks,
Pintu
