The support for multiple serial interfaces as implemented is mainly
 | 
						|
intended to allow for modem dial-in / dial-out while still being able
 | 
						|
to use a serial console on a (different) serial port.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
MPC8XX Specific
 | 
						|
===============
 | 
						|
At the moment, the ports must be split on a SMC and a SCC port  on  a
 | 
						|
8xx processor; other configurations are not (yet) supported.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Support for hardware handshake has not been implemented yet (but is
 | 
						|
in the works).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*) The default console depends on the keys pressed:
 | 
						|
	- SMC if keys not pressed (modem not enabled)
 | 
						|
	- SCC if keys pressed (modem enabled)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*) The console can be switched to SCC by any of the following commands:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	setenv stdout serial_scc
 | 
						|
	setenv stdin serial_scc
 | 
						|
	setenv stderr serial_scc
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*) The console can be switched to SMC by any of the following commands:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	setenv stdout serial_smc
 | 
						|
	setenv stdin serial_smc
 | 
						|
	setenv stderr serial_smc
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*) If a file descriptor is set to "serial" then the current serial device
 | 
						|
will be used which, in turn, can be switched by above commands.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*) The baudrate is the same for all serial devices. But it can be switched
 | 
						|
just after switching the console:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	setenv sout serial_scc; setenv baudrate 38400
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
After that press 'enter' at the SCC console. Note that baudrates <38400
 | 
						|
are not allowed on LWMON with watchdog enabled (see CFG_SYS_BAUDRATE_TABLE in
 | 
						|
include/configs/lwmon.h).
 |

PPC4XX Specific
 | 
						|
===============
 | 
						|
*) The default console is UART0
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*) The console can be switched to UART1 by any of the following commands:
 | 
						|
	setenv stdout serial1
 | 
						|
	setenv stderr serial1
 | 
						|
	setenv stdin serial1
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*) The console can be switched to UART0 by any of the following commands:
 | 
						|
	setenv stdout serial0
 | 
						|
	setenv stderr serial0
 | 
						|
	setenv stdin serial0
