UART driver #4

Closed rellermeyer closed 4 years ago

rellermeyer commented 10 years ago

Instead of the current pitty of a UART support it would be nice to have a proper UART driver with some initial abstraction of a device driver interface.

michaelbren commented 10 years ago

I think this would be really interesting to work on. I offered to work on the ELF task as well, but I'd be happy to work on either one.

rellermeyer commented 10 years ago

Cool. Give it a go. I would start with finding out which UART is actually emulated in qemu when using the versatile_pb setting and maybe then also write UART support for the Raspberry Pi (assuming that it might use a different one).

What is the status on this? If there's still some work to be done, I'd be interested in working on this.

michaelbren commented 10 years ago

There is still some work to be done, as I've been incredibly busy the past week, but if you'd like to join in and get started on this with me I'd be happy to work with you.

ghost commented 10 years ago

I've been busy as well, but I would like to contribute to this. Since we have more impending deadlines on other parts of course_os, I can start working on this mid-next week.

michaelbren commented 10 years ago

Let's meet up and work on it sometime after our exam.

ghost commented 10 years ago

Works for me. My other issue's milestone is Thursday, so anytime Friday or the weekend will do.

michaelbren commented 10 years ago

Hey @DWDenton , if you're free tonight/tomorrow would you want to get together and work on it?

ghost commented 10 years ago

I think you may have looked at an older message. Since we hadn't finalized anything I already have plans for tonight. Tomorrow or Sunday would work better. Early afternoon is preferable, but I'm free all day.

michaelbren commented 10 years ago

Okay, that works. And you're right, I did, I looked at the one from 5 days ago. Sorry about that. I'd be happy to work on it tomorrow though around 2pm if that works with you.

ghost commented 10 years ago

That works.

now integrated with the code handling different chipsets.
