MW 07:23 PM Software Development: RE: Trouble with writing to UART2
You need to use the TIOCRS485 ioctl on the serial port file descriptor with the serial_rs485 structure.
It involves writing a bit of code. You can't do it with any shell tools that I am aware of.
See the example code in the rs485_...

Additionally, it appears the pin muxing was set up such that the GP0[9] was not selected due to AMUTE being selected by the mcasp initialization. If i disable the mcasp initialization in the kernel build GP0[9] is mapped to the rs485 ena... Jeremy Young

I am using the 2.6.34 kernel and it appears it already has the patch applied. I was able to get it to work by reassigning the pins and manually applying the RTS line. With the original configuration, am I supposed to toggle the GPO pin m... Jeremy Young
MW 03:06 PM Software Development: RE: Trouble with writing to UART2
Hi Jeremy / Tim,
The link Tim pointed you to is for the MityARM-335x, not the MityARM-180x, though a similar patch exists for that as well for the RS-485 drivers.
Sorry for the confusion.
The patch you need is "here":http://su...

Jeremy
The RS485 board has an enable that must be managed. I believe you need a newer version of the driver to control it.
Support for the RS-485 board was added in commit 3e1a3878bbe545b7d4a2ab65023a9938b0d5984e
dated 2012-12-11

To confirm: are you looking for u-Boot code, or the User Boot Loader (UBL) code?

MW 07:01 AM Software Development: RE: Supply voltage for RVDD (internal ram supply)
RVDD is connected to the CORE voltage.
So when you run at 456 MHz, the RVDD is bumped up to 1.3 volts as well.
The minimum core voltage that can be applied is 1.2 volts (even if you drop your OPP down to 200 MHz or below) because o...

Hello,
In the OMAP-L138 data sheet (sprs586d) chapter 2.8.27, I see that RVDD (internal ram supply) needs 1.2V respective 1.3V for 456MHz.

That looks like either
