Hi everyone,
I investigated this a little further, and I'm wondering if the problem
is related to the initialization ordering in lib_arm/board.c.
Here's the sequence:
start_armboot():
1. init_baudrate() -> getenv_r() -> serial_setbrg()
2. env_relocate()
Note that init_baudrate() calls getenv_r("baudrate") and passes either
the result (on success) or CONFIG_BAUDRATE (on error) to
serial_setbrg(). Only after this does the environment get relocated
using env_relocate().
Based on empirical testing, I've discovered that re-running
init_baudrate() after env_relocate() fixes everything. The serial
console uses the baud rate stored in the "baudrate" variable now, and
some ordering of display outputs needs to be tweaked so that gibberish
isn't output in the interim.
The attached patch (below) should give a code-centric view. Please
ignore the minor style changes, as I was hacking code pretty feverishly
to try and figure this out. To be clear: DO NOT IMPORT THIS CODE
DIRECTLY INTO THE LATEST MASTER! It will need to be reviewed, tweaked,
and the finally imported by someone who knows more of what they are
doing than I. :-)
Hope this helps someone else out,
Chris
