/dev/serial/by-id/ for TCL?
« on: March 21, 2019, 03:51:50 PM »
Hi,

I am not an expert in linux and I came to TCL via piCorePlayer.
So I have a piCorePlayer running on a raspberry zero and it running quite fine.

But now I would need to use this raspberry for an additional usb device together with ser2net.
To use this correctly, I would need to have the corresponding "/dev/serial/by-id/".

Is there any tce to get this?
Or what do I need to install to get it?

Thanks a lot in advance for any help.
Best regards
Gerhard

Hi gestein
That appears to be handled by  udev.  The  udev  file that deals with that should be  /etc/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-serial.rules.
When you plug in your USB device,  udev  should detect it and create  /dev/serial/by-id/  automatically.

Dear Rich,

In fact I do have 3 stick plugged in now.
1) Wifi stick
2) HM-CFG-USB from eQ-3
3) FT232R USB UART from FTDI

So all three sticks are recognized.
But there is still no "/dev/serials".

The file "" exists and it contains:
Code: [Select]
# do not edit this file, it will be overwritten on update

ACTION=="remove", GOTO="persistent_serial_end"
SUBSYSTEM!="tty", GOTO="persistent_serial_end"
KERNEL!="ttyUSB[0-9]*|ttyACM[0-9]*", GOTO="persistent_serial_end"

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb-serial", ENV{.ID_PORT}="$attr{port_number}"

IMPORT{builtin}="path_id"
ENV{ID_PATH}=="?*", ENV{.ID_PORT}=="", SYMLINK+="serial/by-path/$env{ID_PATH}"
ENV{ID_PATH}=="?*", ENV{.ID_PORT}=="?*", SYMLINK+="serial/by-path/$env{ID_PATH}-port$env{.ID_PORT}"

IMPORT{builtin}="usb_id"
ENV{ID_SERIAL}=="", GOTO="persistent_serial_end"
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ENV{ID_USB_INTERFACE_NUM}="$attr{bInterfaceNumber}"
ENV{ID_USB_INTERFACE_NUM}=="", GOTO="persistent_serial_end"

ENV{.ID_PORT}=="?*", SYMLINK+="serial/by-id/$env{ID_BUS}-$env{ID_SERIAL}-if$env{ID_USB_INTERFACE_NUM}-port$env{.ID_PORT}"

LABEL="persistent_serial_end"

What should I do to solve this?
Thanks and best regards
Gerhard

Hi gestein
Based on this it looks like it's detected:
Code: [Select]
[    4.813186] usb 1-1.1: new full-speed USB device number 5 using dwc_otg
[    4.935938] usb 1-1.1: New USB device found, idVendor=0403, idProduct=6001
[    4.935961] usb 1-1.1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3

[    4.935997] usb 1-1.1: SerialNumber: A96EMFKS
But it doesn't appear to do anything with it. Maybe you need a driver? Possibly from the  modules  file found here:
http://tinycorelinux.net/9.x/armv6/releases/RPi/src/kernel/
Adjust the  9.x  and  armv6  in the URL to match the release you are running.

Hi gestein
Try installing the  usb-serial  extension. It contains the  ftdi_sio  driver for your device.

Dear Rich,

thanks for this hint. That's it! Now the "/dev/servial/by-id" has been created and it lists the FTDI-stick.

Thanks a lot for your support.
Without you I would not have been able to solve this.

Hi gestein
You are quite welcome. Glad to hear it's working now.
