If there is no COM port for PL011 UART, how can I check PL011 UART’s functionality? How can I use a telnet tool like PuTTY to send messages from RPi4 to my laptop? How to use SerCx2? Is there a guideline for using PL011 UART on RPi4 with Windows IoT?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> As for why I mux both UARTs to the BT chip, I was trying to address your comment “This always assumes that PL011 is used for Bluetooth”. Apparently, it didn’t address your comment. No matter whether I add “PinFunction (Exclusive, PullDown, BCM_ALT5, "<a href="file://_SB.GDV0.GPI0">\\_SB.GDV0.GPI0</a>", 0, ResourceConsumer, , ) { 32, 33 }” or not, the Bluetooth has NOT worked when I configure PL011 UART as the primary serial console. Bluetooth only works when I configure Mini UART as the Primary serial console. I also confirmed that this problem also exists with RPi4 Release FW 1.26 + edk2-platforms-raspberrypi-pl011-bth-noflow.diff in <a href="https://github.com/worproject/RPi-Bluetooth-Testing/"> https://github.com/worproject/RPi-Bluetooth-Testing/</a>. Do you have any idea to make the Bluetooth work with configuring PL011 UART as the primary serial console? By the way, it is good to know the loading sequence. Do you know where I can quickly find this information without using WinDbg?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Actually, the original code change (Patch 2/2) is the patch (edk2-platforms-raspberrypi-pl011-bth-noflow.diff) on <a href="https://github.com/worproject/RPi-Bluetooth-Testing/">https://github.com/worproject/RPi-Bluetooth-Testing/</a>. I’m not familiar with Windows drivers’ behavior, so I had no idea about why we need to change them and couldn’t find more information about the changes’ background either. It looks like you know the details. Could you share with me more information about the background of these changes? At least, I have some questions below: <o:p></o:p> 1. What is the connection between GPIO 128 and Bluetooth (BT_ON)? Why did we add this line in the beginning? I just removed it by your request and according to the change in worproject/RPi-Bluetooth-Testing/, but I’m still worried about if we did this for some other purposes. <o:p></o:p> 2. Why do we need to configure GPIO 32 and 33? Is the Bluetooth using GPIO 32 and 33? Or Is Windows OS checking GPIO 32 and 33 for Bluetooth? Where can I find the information? <o:p></o:p> 3. As for your comment about GPIO 31, I was confused, so I didn’t update anything for addressing this comment. My understanding was that It is intended to override the BCM_ALT2’s default setting from PullLow to PullNone to fack the CTS signal. If we change it to PullLow, it will be used for HW flow control, which is unwanted, isn’t it? What did you want me to change? Could you directly paste the code change you wanted here for my reference? <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Moreover, for the changes you want, could you also paste the code change? <o:p></o:p> Best Regards,<o:p></o:p> Sunny Wang<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"> From: devel@edk2.groups.io <devel@edk2.groups.io> On Behalf Of Mario Balanica via groups.io Sent: Monday, May 31, 2021 8:41 PM To: Sunny Wang <Sunny.Wang@arm.com> Cc: devel@edk2.groups.io; Samer El-Haj-Mahmoud <Samer.El-Haj-Mahmoud@arm.com>; Sami Mujawar <Sami.Mujawar@arm.com>; Jeremy Linton <Jeremy.Linton@arm.com>; Pete Batard <pete@akeo.ie>; Ard Biesheuvel <ardb+tianocore@kernel.org> Subject: Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v3 2/2] Platform/RaspberryPi: Enable Bluetooth and UART in Windows OS<o:p></o:p> </div> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <div> <div> Hi Sunny,<o:p></o:p> <div> <o:p> </o:p> </div> <div> What issues are you seeing with the PL011 UART in Windows?

Note that PL011 UART still doesn't work with Windows 10 IOT with this change, but PL011 UART works fine with VMware ESXi-Arm Fling v1.3. Therefore, there should be no issue with PL011 UART related changes, and we will still need a Windows expert to take a further look in the future. Making PL011 UART work properly with Windows 10 IOT may require additional changes to Windows driver or firmware's ACPI table. Testing Done: - Successfully booted Windows Windows 10 IOT (20279.1) on SD (made by WOR) with the RPi-Windows-Drivers release ver 0.5 downloaded from <a href="https://github.com/worproject/RPi-Windows-Drivers/releases" target="_blank"> https://github.com/worproject/RPi-Windows-Drivers/releases</a> and checked that both Bluetooth and serial port (Mini UART) can work fine. - Successfully booted VMware ESXi-Arm Fling v1.3 with only serial console connection (PL011 UART).
