USART6 Pins on PF4 & PF5 are shows NO ACCESS in Linux
Hi Team,
I am working on a custom STM32MP255 board with OpenSTLinux (Yocto, kernel 6.6).
I want to use USART6 only in Linux (no need in TF-A or U-Boot).
Console is on USART2 (ttySTM0). USART6 is intended for RS232 communication.
Device Tree Configuration (Linux)
Aliases
serial1 = &uart5;
serial2 = &usart1;
serial6 = &usart6;
ethernet0 = ð1;
};
Pinctrl configuration
pinmux = <STM32_PINMUX('F', 5, AF6)>; /* USART6_TX */
bias-disable;
drive-push-pull;
slew-rate = <0>;
};
pins2 {
pinmux = <STM32_PINMUX('F', 4, AF6)>; /* USART6_RX */
bias-disable;
drive-push-pull;
};
};
usart6_idle_pins_mx: usart6_idle_mx-0 {
pins1 {
pinmux = <STM32_PINMUX('F', 5, ANALOG)>; /* USART6_TX */
};
pins2 {
pinmux = <STM32_PINMUX('F', 4, AF6)>; /* USART6_RX */
bias-disable;
drive-push-pull;
};
};
usart6_sleep_pins_mx: usart6_sleep_mx-0 {
pins {
pinmux = <STM32_PINMUX('F', 5, ANALOG)>,
<STM32_PINMUX('F', 4, ANALOG)>;
};
};
USART6 node
pinctrl-0 = <&usart6_pins_mx>;
pinctrl-1 = <&usart6_idle_pins_mx>;
pinctrl-2 = <&usart6_sleep_pins_mx>;
/delete-property/dmas;
/delete-property/dma-names;
status = "okay";
};
Runtime Observations
root@stm32mp255-customeds32-80-f7-b1-8c-8b:~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/*/pinconf-pins | grep -A0 "PF[45]"
pin 84 (PF4): NO ACCESS
pin 85 (PF5): alternate 6 (USART6_TX) - push pull - floating - low speed
root@stm32mp255-customeds32-80-f7-b1-8c-8b:~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/*/pinmux-pins | grep PF4
pin 84 (PF4): UNCLAIMED
root@stm32mp255-customeds32-80-f7-b1-8c-8b:~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/*/pinmux-pins | grep PF5

USART6 is not used in TF-A or U-Boot — only in Linux.
How to configure USART6 with PF4 & PF5 ?
Is additional configuration required for USART6 access controller in STM32MP255?
I Checked AF with Datasheet its correct.
Help me to Resolve this issue.
Thanks
