[ELDK] R: R: Resource temporarily unavailable

[Luigi Rizzi]

Hi Stefano,
a problem on the handshake line CTS is what I thought at first. I recompiled
the kernel setting NONE on every signal (RTS,CTS,CD,DTR) but nothing has
changed: everything works properly only on the STK board.

I check lots of times.. but it looks like there are no differences between
my carrier board and STK board, regarding these serial line signals. 

By the way, I noticed that with parameter "Number of TX DB for SCC2" set to
4, I get no error response for the first four write call: 

# ./test /dev/ttyS1
sending...
sending...
sending...
sending...

sending...
serial_tx: Resource temporarily unavailable
sending...
serial_tx: Resource temporarily unavailable


There's in your opinion something else I can check?

Best regards,
Luigi

If you use RTSD2, you should also use CTS, or at least do not program
the SCC to use handshaking. Check if CONFIG_PORT_RTS2_NONE is set, and
disable all control signals in your kernel configuration. The SCC waits
for the CTS line cleared by the modem, and it does not try to send
character if it does not see the answer from modem.

This is a difficult question...it depends on a lot of factors, from your
level of expertise, and if the board is supported by recent kernels, and
what you did on 2.4 kernel to allow the kernel to boot. However, TQ
modules are supported in 2.6.x kernel.
