OpenCore 16550 IP Linux driver

Page under construction... Informations on this page are not guaranteed !!

Thanks to the OpenCore 16550 serial IP integration, you can add at least 4 complete RS232 ports to your Armadeus board (depending on the FPGA capacity).

Compilation

$ make menuconfig

Device Drivers  ---> Armadeus specific drivers  ---> FPGA Drivers   ---> <M>   OpenCore 16550 serial IP driver

$ make linux

Usage

Assuming you have previously loaded your FPGA with the corresponding IP:

# modprobe 8250
# modprobe 16550_ocore

Now you should have as much /dev/ttySN as IPs you put in your bitfile.
