14 Require a serial port for the console, and panic if none is found
15 during serial port initialization (default y). Set this to n on
16 boards which have no debug serial port whatsoever.

21 help
22 Enable driver model for serial. This replaces
23 drivers/serial/serial.c with the serial uclass, which
24 implements serial_putc() etc. The uclass interface is
25 defined in include/serial.h.

27 config DEBUG_UART
28 bool "Enable an early debug UART for debugging"
29 help
30 The debug UART is intended for use very early in U-Boot to debug
31 problems when an ICE or other debug mechanism is not available.
32
33 To use it you should:
34 - Make sure your UART supports this interface
35 - Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_UART
36 - Enable the CONFIG for your UART to tell it to provide this interface
37 (e.g. CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_NS16550)
38 - Define the required settings as needed (see below)
39 - Call debug_uart_init() before use
40 - Call debug_uart_putc() to output a character
41
42 Depending on your platform it may be possible to use this UART before
43 a stack is available.
44
45 If your UART does not support this interface you can probably add
46 support quite easily. Remember that you cannot use driver model and
47 it is preferred to use no stack.
48
49 You must not use this UART once driver model is working and the
50 serial drivers are up and running (done in serial_init()). Otherwise
51 the drivers may conflict and you will get strange output.

114 help
115 This is the base address of your UART for memory-mapped UARTs.

122 depends on DEBUG_UART
123 help
124 The UART input clock determines the speed of the internal UART
125 circuitry. The baud rate is derived from this by dividing the input
126 clock down.

128 A default should be provided by your board, but if not you will need
129 to use the correct value here.

132 int "UART register shift"
133 depends on DEBUG_UART
134 default 0 if DEBUG_UART
135 help
136 Some UARTs (notably ns16550) support different register layouts
137 where the registers are spaced either as bytes, words or some other
138 value. Use this value to specify the shift to use, where 0=byte
139 registers, 2=32-bit word registers, etc.

141 config DEBUG_UART_BOARD_INIT
142 bool "Enable board-specific debug UART init"
143 depends on DEBUG_UART
144 help
145 Some boards need to set things up before the debug UART can be used.
146 On these boards a call to debug_uart_init() is insufficient. When
147 this option is enabled, the function board_debug_uart_init() will
148 be called when debug_uart_init() is called. You can put any code
149 here that is needed to set up the UART ready for use, such as set
150 pin multiplexing or enable clocks.

155 help
156 Enable this option to show a message when the debug UART is ready
157 for use. You will see a message like "<debug_uart> " as soon as
158 U-Boot has the UART ready for use (i.e. your code calls
159 debug_uart_init()). This can be useful just as a check that
160 everything is working.

175 Bypass console output and keep going even if there is no JTAG
176 terminal connection with the host. The console output will resume
177 once the JTAG terminal is connected. Without the bypass, the console
178 output will wait forever until a JTAG terminal is connected. If you
179 not are sure, say Y.

191 help
192 Select this to enable a debug UART for Rockchip devices. This uses
193 the ns16550 driver. You will need to #define CONFIG_SYS_NS16550 in
194 your board config header. The clock input is automatically set to
195 use the oscillator (24MHz).

199 depends on SANDBOX
200 help
201 Select this to enable a seral UART for sandbox. This is required to
202 operate correctly, otherwise you will see no serial output from
203 sandbox. The emulated UART will display to the console and console
204 input will be fed into the UART. This allows you to interact with
205 U-Boot.
206
207 The operation of the console is controlled by the -t command-line
208 flag. In raw mode, U-Boot sees all characters from the terminal
209 before they are processed, including Ctrl-C. In cooked mode, Ctrl-C
210 is processed by the terminal, and terminates U-Boot. Valid options
211 are:
212
213 -t raw-with-sigs Raw mode, Ctrl-C will terminate U-Boot
214 -t raw Raw mode, Ctrl-C is processed by U-Boot
215 -t cooked Cooked mode, Ctrl-C terminates
