Hi,

The UART hardware supports 9bit mode, but I don't think the Linux kernel directly supports it.

Can you give me some advice on how to make it happen?

Do you use Linux or any other OS on AM62x?

I don't know how to get it working in Linux. The kernel TTY framework only process 8-bits byte data, I am not sure how to make kernel understand 9-bit data.
