[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 2/5] debug_uart: Support board-specific UART initialisation

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Mon Oct 19 03:51:24 CEST 2015


Some boards need to set things up before the debug UART can be used. On
these boards a call to debug_uart_init() is insufficient. When this option
is enabled, the function board_debug_uart_init() will be called when
debug_uart_init() is called. You can put any code here that is needed to
set up the UART ready for use, such as set pin multiplexing or enable
clocks.
