Subject: [PATCH] Bodge up serial support in 2.5.40
Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2002 17:36:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200210021636.g92GaWEp000312@darkstar.example.net> (raw)
Standard 8250/16550 UART support is broken in 2.5.40, and I needed it, so following a bit of advice from Russell King, I've prepared this patch.
I thought I'd post it, just incase anybody else out there actually uses serial ports, (seems they don't). Before you apply it, bear in mind that the last C I did was a hello world program :-), (only half kidding).
This is a bodge up patch only, NOT an official solution.
John.
