I am using my own 8272-based board (it is similar to the 8272 ADS) with Linux 2.6.27 and u-boot-2009-Jan-rc1.

So the brg node looks like this- b...@119f0 { compatible = "fsl,mpc8272-brg", "fsl,cpm2-brg"; reg = <0x119f0 0x10 0x115f0 0x10>; clock-frequency = <0>; But aren't the BRG registers 32 bits, so shouldn't we use?: reg = <0x119f0 0x20 0x115f0 0x20>; -either way, changing these values doesn't seem to make a difference in my board's behaviour. Why? Regarding the following line in the ser...@11a00 node: fsl,cpm-brg = <1>; -If I change the above number to anything other than 1 (even nonsense like '99') then it also seems to work. Why? Does this mean the clock for BRG1 is set incorrectly? Where do I set this? Adding 'clock-frequency = <0>;' to the brg node doesn't seem to make a difference to my board's behaviour. What is actually happening here? Is it freezing up in the switch over from the early boot console driver to the proper linux console driver? Which of these drivers is cpm_uart_cpm2.h for? Why does it still work when we comment out the call to 'set_brg()'? Here's the relevant part of the 'working' boot sequence. Notice there are still some funny characters when the CPM serial driver kicks in (near the bottom).
