Apalis imx8 uart5

Hi

Can someone provide me a patch to enable the uart5 instead of the sd card on apalis imx8? (Pin 186 and 188)

I am using the yocto/boot2qt image provided by Qt. I already managed to build a custom image and add a custom meta-layer.

We developped a custom carrier board based on the apalis eval board but we decided to go with more uart instead of having an sd card

Thanks

Dear @Romain.Donze

Can you please try to first follow this article:

We are glad to help you if you stuck somewhere. You will basically have to disable the corresponding sd node (e.g. &usdhc3 { status = “disabled”; }:wink: and then activate uart and add the correct pinmuxing.

Stefan
