Hi,
I have been able to use the secondary serial port (/dev/ttyO0) on the 816X EVM to send data, but I have not been able to receive data on it. I am using EZSDK 5.02.02.60 with a Rev. E EVM. The Linux console port (/dev/ttyO2) works fine in both directions.
I am setting up the serial port with the following code, then I call write() to write data to the serial port or read() to read data from it. The read() blocks forever, even though I am typing characters at the other end.
Is this a known issue with the EVM? Has anyone else tried using this port? Am I missing something in my port setup?
