Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] doc: board: virt: m68k: Detail how to use debug uart
Date: Mon,  9 Mar 2026 19:51:10 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260309105110.672832-3-daniel@0x0f.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260309105110.672832-1-daniel@0x0f.com>

Add a paragraph to explain how to get the address of the goldfish
tty and use it as the debug uart. I think the address is actually
fixed right now but it might change in the future.

 Note that the `-nographic` option is used to redirect the console to stdio,
 which connects to the emulated Goldfish TTY device.
 
+Debugging U-Boot
+----------------
+
+If you need early debugging output enable `CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_GOLDFISH`.
+The base address for the UART can be found by activating the QEMU monitor,
+running `info qtree`, and then looking for the goldfish tty device and
+taking the mmio address.

+Baud rate doesn't matter.

 Hardware Support

 The following QEMU virt peripherals are supported in U-Boot:
