[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH]: Enable device and console for ARM (III).

[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH]: Enable device and console for ARM (III).

[Woodruff, Richard]

Wolfgang,

Here is the patch re-submitted removing the movement of the trab specific
code.  I just rebuilt it and tried it out on my board and it works.  No
surprise as I don't have anything trab specific.

The trab not working still surprises me, hopefully this change will fix it.
Getting the console working is a GOOD thing for ARM.  Being able to use
control^c and enabling a clean stdin/out/err is something which should be
made to work.  

The patch is as before, enables device and console on ARM and sets the
baudrate such that bdinfo prints something reasonable.

Regards,

Richard W.

The TRAB is a bit special, for example as you can switch  to  console
interface to a dial out/dial in modem connection, which requires some
trickery.

You are right.

Thanks. Added.

A few requests though for your next patch:

* Please stick to the coding standards (i.  e.  8  character  indents
  using tab characters).
* Do not add trailing white space to the lines
* Make sure to run the  MAKEALL  script,  and  resolve  ALL  compiler
  warnings introduced by your patch.


Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
