[PATCH v2 12/16] misc: support for serial slots in LP-8x4x

Thu Dec 12 21:27:21 EST 2013


Serial modules (I-870xxW series) implement DCON protocol which
allows one-master-many-slaves configuration over RS-485. When
these modules are installed into the device, they could be
accessed using the 2nd PXA built-in UART port (/dev/ttySA1).
However, it seems that addresses are not processed by the modules.
So the parallel bus needs to select which slot is connected.
