新内核2.6.30编译完之后在目标板上看不到ttyS1

问题:

在老内核2.6.24.3的目标板上,/dev下能看到ttyS0,ttyS1和ttyS2;没有ttys*文件;

但是,内核升级到2.6.30后,在/dev下只能看到ttyS0和ttyS2,有ttys0~ttysf共16个文件;

并且,不能通过open命令打开ttyS1设备。

解决办法:

1. 进入到内核所在目录linux-2.6.30,运行命令:

make menuconfig
使用/来查找serial字符,看到这么一行,

Symbol: SERIAL_ATMEL_CONSOLE [=n]                                                                                             │

  │   Depends on: HAS_IOMEM && SERIAL_ATMEL                                                                                       │

  │     -> Device Drivers                                                                                                         │  
  │       -> Character devices                                                                                                    │  
  │         -> Serial drivers                                                                                                     │  
  │           -> AT91 / AT32 on-chip serial port support (SERIAL_ATMEL [=n])                                                      │  
  │   Selects: SERIAL_CORE_CONSOLE
从SERIAL_ATMEL_CONSOLE = n,本来以为是内核配置有误,但是,查了一下.config文件,有这么几行:

# Non-8250 serial port support
#
CONFIG_SERIAL_ATMEL=y
CONFIG_SERIAL_ATMEL_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_SERIAL_ATMEL_PDC=y
# CONFIG_SERIAL_ATMEL_TTYAT is not set
看来在.config文件中已经设定好了,那为什么make menuconfig看不到AT91 / AT32 on-chip serila port support呢?

原来,是make命令用错了,不只是要指定交叉编译名称,也要指定目标处理器的体系结构,应该使用命令:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-ilnux- menuconfig
这样,就能看到Device Drivers -> Serial drivers -> AT91 / AT32 on-chip serial port support的选择界面了。

2. 既然内核的选项中已经把所有的开关都打开了,ttyS1还是不能显示,那真正影响到ttyS1显示的是这个文件:

arch/arm/mach-at91/board-sam9260ek.c

在函数ek_map_io()中,注册ttyS1的串口被屏蔽掉了。

static void __init ek_map_io(void)
{
	/* Initialize processor: 18.432 MHz crystal */
	at91sam9260_initialize(18432000);

	/* DGBU on ttyS0. (Rx & Tx only) */
	at91_register_uart(0, 0, 0);

        /* USART0 on ttyS1. (Rx, Tx, CTS, RTS, DTR, DSR, DCD, RI) */
	/*
	at91_register_uart(AT91SAM9260_ID_US0, 1, ATMEL_UART_CTS | ATMEL_UART_RTS | ATMEL_UART_DTR | ATMEL_UART_DSR | ATMEL_UART_DCD | ATMEL_UART_RI);
	*/
	/* USART1 on ttyS2. (Rx, Tx, RTS, CTS) */
	// at91_register_uart(AT91SAM9260_ID_US1, 2, ATMEL_UART_CTS | ATMEL_UART_RTS);
	at91_register_uart(AT91SAM9260_ID_US1, 2, 0);
	/* set serial console to ttyS0 (ie, DBGU) */
	at91_set_serial_console(0);
}

将屏蔽语句去除,改为:

static void __init ek_map_io(void)
{
	/* Initialize processor: 18.432 MHz crystal */
	at91sam9260_initialize(18432000);

	/* DGBU on ttyS0. (Rx & Tx only) */
	at91_register_uart(0, 0, 0);

	/* USART0 on ttyS1. (Rx, Tx, CTS, RTS, DTR, DSR, DCD, RI) */
	at91_register_uart(AT91SAM9260_ID_US0, 1, ATMEL_UART_CTS | ATMEL_UART_RTS
			   | ATMEL_UART_DTR | ATMEL_UART_DSR | ATMEL_UART_DCD
			   | ATMEL_UART_RI);
	/*
	*/

	/* USART1 on ttyS2. (Rx, Tx, RTS, CTS) */
	// at91_register_uart(AT91SAM9260_ID_US1, 2, ATMEL_UART_CTS | ATMEL_UART_RTS);
	at91_register_uart(AT91SAM9260_ID_US1, 2, 0);

	/* set serial console to ttyS0 (ie, DBGU) */
	at91_set_serial_console(0);
}

重新编译内核,使用命令:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- uImage

将新生成的uImage通过U-Boot烧写到Flash的0xa0000处开始的2M字节(0x200000)中,

重启目标板,到/dev目录下查看ttyS*,看到ttyS1了。

问题解决。
