MityDSP L138, using UART1 from the DSP
Added by Vibhakar Vemulapati about 7 years ago
Hi,
I am trying to communicate using the UART1 from the DSP directly. Currently the ARM core uses the UART1, and I don't have access to the other UART pins. Is there a procedure that I need to follow to shutdown the UART on the ARM, so that the DSP is free to use it? Or can I directly configure the UART from the DSP and use it?
Any help would be appreciated!

You can probably modify the enabled_uarts line in the board-mityomapl138.c file to not initialize UART1.
board-mityomapl138.c
static struct davinci_uart_config mityomapl138_uart_config __initdata = {
.enabled_uarts = 0x7,
};
Might also need to modify the console= bootargs so it doesn't use Uart1.
