1config DM_SERIAL
2	bool "Enable Driver Model for serial drivers"
3	depends on DM
4	help
5	  Enable driver model for serial. This replaces
6	  drivers/serial/serial.c with the serial uclass, which
7	  implements serial_putc() etc. The uclass interface is
8	  defined in include/serial.h.

10config DEBUG_UART
11	bool "Enable an early debug UART for debugging"
12	help
13	  The debug UART is intended for use very early in U-Boot to debug
14	  problems when an ICE or other debug mechanism is not available.
15
16	  To use it you should:
17	  - Make sure your UART supports this interface
18	  - Enable CONFIG_DEBUG_UART
19	  - Enable the CONFIG for your UART to tell it to provide this interface
20	        (e.g. CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_NS16550)
21	  - Define the required settings as needed (see below)
22	  - Call debug_uart_init() before use
23	  - Call debug_uart_putc() to output a character
24
25	  Depending on your platform it may be possible to use this UART before
26	  a stack is available.
27
28	  If your UART does not support this interface you can probably add
29	  support quite easily. Remember that you cannot use driver model and
30	  it is preferred to use no stack.
31
32	  You must not use this UART once driver model is working and the
33	  serial drivers are up and running (done in serial_init()). Otherwise
34	  the drivers may conflict and you will get strange output.

40config DEBUG_UART_NS16550
41	bool "ns16550"
42	help
43	  Select this to enable a debug UART using the ns16550 driver. You
44	  will need to provide parameters to make this work. The driver will
45	  be available until the real driver model serial is running.
46
47config DEBUG_EFI_CONSOLE
48	bool "EFI"
49	depends on EFI_APP
50	help
51	  Select this to enable a debug console which calls back to EFI to
52	  output to the console. This can be useful for early debugging of
53	  U-Boot when running on top of EFI (Extensive Firmware Interface).
54	  This is a type of BIOS used by PCs.
55
56config DEBUG_UART_S5P
57	bool "Samsung S5P"
58	help
59	  Select this to enable a debug UART using the serial_s5p driver. You
60	  will need to provide parameters to make this work. The driver will
61	  be available until the real driver-model serial is running.

65config DEBUG_UART_BASE
66	hex "Base address of UART"
67	depends on DEBUG_UART
68	help
69	  This is the base address of your UART for memory-mapped UARTs.
70
71	  A default should be provided by your board, but if not you will need
72	  to use the correct value here.
73
74config DEBUG_UART_CLOCK
75	int "UART input clock"
76	depends on DEBUG_UART
77	help
78	  The UART input clock determines the speed of the internal UART
79	  circuitry. The baud rate is derived from this by dividing the input
80	  clock down.
81
82	  A default should be provided by your board, but if not you will need
83	  to use the correct value here.
84
85config DEBUG_UART_SHIFT
86	int "UART register shift"
87	depends on DEBUG_UART
88	default 0 if DEBUG_UART
89	help
90	  Some UARTs (notably ns16550) support different register layouts
91	  where the registers are spaced either as bytes, words or some other
92	  value. Use this value to specify the shift to use, where 0=byte
93	  registers, 2=32-bit word registers, etc.
94
95config SANDBOX_SERIAL
96	bool "Sandbox UART support"
97	depends on SANDBOX && DM
98	help
99	  Select this to enable a seral UART for sandbox. This is required to
100	  operate correctly, otherwise you will see no serial output from
101	  sandbox. The emulated UART will display to the console and console
102	  input will be fed into the UART. This allows you to interact with
103	  U-Boot.
104
105	  The operation of the console is controlled by the -t command-line
106	  flag. In raw mode, U-Boot sees all characters from the terminal
107	  before they are processed, including Ctrl-C. In cooked mode, Ctrl-C
108	  is processed by the terminal, and terminates U-Boot. Valid options
109	  are:
110
111	     -t raw-with-sigs	Raw mode, Ctrl-C will terminate U-Boot
112	     -t raw		Raw mode, Ctrl-C is processed by U-Boot
113	     -t cooked		Cooked mode, Ctrl-C terminates
114
115config UNIPHIER_SERIAL
116	bool "Support for UniPhier on-chip UART"
117	depends on ARCH_UNIPHIER && DM_SERIAL
118	help
119	  If you have a UniPhier based board and want to use the on-chip
120	  serial ports, say Y to this option. If unsure, say N.
121
122config X86_SERIAL
123	bool "Support for 16550 serial port on x86 machines"
124	depends on X86
125	default y
126	help
127	  Most x86 machines have a ns16550 UART or compatible. This can be
128	  enabled in the device tree with the correct input clock frequency
129	  provided (default 1843200). Enable this to obtain serial console
130	  output.
