Serial configuration in 4.14.49-ti-r54 kernel #24

Closed Madursk closed 6 years ago

Madursk commented 6 years ago

Hello

I'm currently trying to use all the 10 uarts on my platform however the kernel configuration has only 6 available (ttyS0, ttyS1, ttyS2, ttyS3, ttyS4, ttyS5). I have tried doing the change manually in the lines

CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS =6 --> CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=10 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS=6 --> CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS=10

of my config-4.14.49-ti-r54.txt file but with no sucess. I saw your files and tried to do it as the README however I still have 6 ports instead of 10, what am I missing?

Hardware Beagleboard x15 TI AM5729

OS version, kernel and DTB Debian 9 Stretch kernel version 4.14.49 am57xx-beagle-x15-revc

I managed to do it, its indeed by using your kernel files, however the memory from the beagleboard ended when building the kernel which stopped the build and didn't update the Kconfig file of the drivers, I had to install your files in a usb and run them on it in order to sucessfully change the kernel conf.
