It may happen that the MXC serial IP block is performing some ongoing transmission (started at e.g. board_init()) when the "initr_serial" is called.
As a result the serial port IP block is reset, so transmitted data is corrupted: I2C: ready DRAM: 1 GiB jSS('HH��SL_SDHC: 04 rev 0x0 This patch prevents from this situation, by waiting for transmission complete bit set (UART Status Register 2 (UARTx_USR2), bit TXDC): I2C: ready DRAM: 1 GiB ID: unit type 0x4 rev 0x0 Signed-off-by: Lukasz Majewski <lu...@denx.de> --- drivers/serial/serial_mxc.c | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/serial/serial_mxc.c b/drivers/serial/serial_mxc.c index cce80a8..ef4eb12 100644 --- a/drivers/serial/serial_mxc.c +++ b/drivers/serial/serial_mxc.c @@ -141,6 +141,13 @@ struct mxc_uart { static void _mxc_serial_init(struct mxc_uart *base) { + /* + * Wait for any ongoing transmission to finish - for example + * from pre-relocation enabled UART + */ + while (!(readl(&base->sr2) & USR2_TXDC)) + ; + writel(0, &base->cr1); writel(0, &base->cr2); -- 2.1.4 _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot
