Raspberry Pi Compute Module Serial Console
 
Hi there!

I have a little problem with my CM3(l) giving me no serial console...

Ok, that's not totally correct... I get serial output until a certain point (see log below)...

I followed http://elinux.org/RPi_Serial_Connection which seems not totally correct for the CM3... the serial port seems to be ttyAMA0 not ttyS0...

anyhow, I tried

AMA::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyAMA0 115200 vt100

just to be sure

S0::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 115200 vt100

and since it works for the RPi tinyCore port

tty1::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1

cmdline.txt seems to be OK since i get kernel output...

any idea what could be the problem? oh, I did try 38400 baud :)

regards,
Johann

Hi,

THis might help put some context round the ttyAMA0/ttyS0 difference, especially regarding the rpi3 ports. The CM3 not having Bluetooth may well have freed ttyAMA0 back

http://spellfoundry.com/2016/05/29/c...ncluding-pi-3/

wilhe_jo 04-13-2017 01:26 AM

thank's for that...

I finally got it working in yesterdays very late-night debug session.

The problem seems to be very simple - the installer image for the RPi seems to spawn a shell on tty1.
This first console is used to display the "select-keyboard-layout script" and I think at that stage we're actually not multiuser yet.
So until the kernel shows debug data, everything's fine.
If tty0 is used as first console in a single-user-runlevel the output stops... at lest this seems logical to me.

If you remove "console tty1" from cmdline.txt, it seems that tty1 is not even created. This allows for a serial console on ttyAMA0 as first console and it works.

After installation I now do not get kernel debug output but a console.
maybe the kernel package has overwritten my cmdline.txt...I need to recheck that in todays (this time hopefully not so) late-night session :)
At least I get a login prompt :)
