From 803eba9a3e9a343903ebe0f6bf2ad80475736200 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Elwell Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2016 17:26:48 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] amba_pl011: Don't use DT aliases for numbering The pl011 driver looks for DT aliases of the form "serial", and if found uses as the device ID. This can cause /dev/ttyAMA0 to become /dev/ttyAMA1, which is confusing if the other serial port is provided by the 8250 driver which doesn't use the same logic. --- drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) --- a/drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c +++ b/drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c @@ -2588,7 +2588,12 @@ static int pl011_setup_port(struct devic if (IS_ERR(base)) return PTR_ERR(base); + /* Don't use DT serial aliases - it causes the device to + be renumbered to ttyAMA1 if it is the second serial port in the + system, even though the other one is ttyS0.
