9 # Running without a serial console is not supported by the
10 # non-dm serial code
11 depends on DM_SERIAL
12 default y
13 help
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.

18 config DM_SERIAL
19 bool "Enable Driver Model for serial drivers"
20 depends on DM
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.

57 config DEBUG_UART_NS16550
58 bool "ns16550"
59 help
60 Select this to enable a debug UART using the ns16550 driver. You
61 will need to provide parameters to make this work. The driver will
62 be available until the real driver model serial is running.
63
64 config DEBUG_EFI_CONSOLE
65 bool "EFI"
66 depends on EFI_APP
67 help
68 Select this to enable a debug console which calls back to EFI to
69 output to the console. This can be useful for early debugging of
70 U-Boot when running on top of EFI (Extensive Firmware Interface).
71 This is a type of BIOS used by PCs.
72
73 config DEBUG_UART_S5P
74 bool "Samsung S5P"
75 help
76 Select this to enable a debug UART using the serial_s5p driver. You
77 will need to provide parameters to make this work. The driver will
78 be available until the real driver-model serial is running.

82 config DEBUG_UART_BASE
83 hex "Base address of UART"
84 depends on DEBUG_UART
85 help
86 This is the base address of your UART for memory-mapped UARTs.
87
88 A default should be provided by your board, but if not you will need
89 to use the correct value here.
90
91 config DEBUG_UART_CLOCK
92 int "UART input clock"
93 depends on DEBUG_UART
94 help
95 The UART input clock determines the speed of the internal UART
96 circuitry. The baud rate is derived from this by dividing the input
97 clock down.
98
99 A default should be provided by your board, but if not you will need
100 to use the correct value here.
101
102 config DEBUG_UART_SHIFT
103 int "UART register shift"
104 depends on DEBUG_UART
105 default 0 if DEBUG_UART
106 help
107 Some UARTs (notably ns16550) support different register layouts
108 where the registers are spaced either as bytes, words or some other
109 value. Use this value to specify the shift to use, where 0=byte
110 registers, 2=32-bit word registers, etc.
111
112 config DEBUG_UART_BOARD_INIT
113 bool "Enable board-specific debug UART init"
114 depends on DEBUG_UART
115 help
116 Some boards need to set things up before the debug UART can be used.
117 On these boards a call to debug_uart_init() is insufficient. When
118 this option is enabled, the function board_debug_uart_init() will
119 be called when debug_uart_init() is called. You can put any code
120 here that is needed to set up the UART ready for use, such as set
121 pin multiplexing or enable clocks.
122
123 config DEBUG_UART_ANNOUNCE
124 bool "Show a message when the debug UART starts up"
125 depends on DEBUG_UART
126 help
127 Enable this option to show a message when the debug UART is ready
128 for use. You will see a message like "<debug_uart> " as soon as
129 U-Boot has the UART ready for use (i.e. your code calls
130 debug_uart_init()). This can be useful just as a check that
131 everything is working.
132
133 config ROCKCHIP_SERIAL
134 bool "Rockchip on-chip UART support"
135 depends on ARCH_ROCKCHIP && DM_SERIAL
136 help
137 Select this to enable a debug UART for Rockchip devices. This uses
138 the ns16550 driver. You will need to #define CONFIG_SYS_NS16550 in
139 your board config header. The clock input is automatically set to
140 use the oscillator (24MHz).
141
142 config SANDBOX_SERIAL
143 bool "Sandbox UART support"
144 depends on SANDBOX
145 help
146 Select this to enable a seral UART for sandbox. This is required to
147 operate correctly, otherwise you will see no serial output from
148 sandbox. The emulated UART will display to the console and console
149 input will be fed into the UART. This allows you to interact with
150 U-Boot.
151
152 The operation of the console is controlled by the -t command-line
153 flag. In raw mode, U-Boot sees all characters from the terminal
154 before they are processed, including Ctrl-C. In cooked mode, Ctrl-C
155 is processed by the terminal, and terminates U-Boot. Valid options
156 are:
157
158 -t raw-with-sigs Raw mode, Ctrl-C will terminate U-Boot
159 -t raw Raw mode, Ctrl-C is processed by U-Boot
160 -t cooked Cooked mode, Ctrl-C terminates

164 depends on ARCH_UNIPHIER
165 help
166 If you have a UniPhier based board and want to use the on-chip
167 serial ports, say Y to this option. If unsure, say N.

169 config X86_SERIAL
170 bool "Support for 16550 serial port on x86 machines"
171 depends on X86
172 default y
173 help
174 Most x86 machines have a ns16550 UART or compatible. This can be
175 enabled in the device tree with the correct input clock frequency
176 provided (default 1843200). Enable this to obtain serial console
177 output.
