[Tinyos-devel] ATmega128 UartByte Broken

[David Moss]

Yet another bug report for someone to look at when there's time.

 

The ATmega128 UartByte interface appears to be broken, and has been for
quite some time:

/lib/serial/9_TestUartByte.html

 

Compare this to the MSP430 UartByte interface:

 

http://www.lavalampmotemasters.com/reports/html/1_telosb/tests/tinyos-2/x/to
s/lib/serial/22_TestUartByte.html

 

The test here simply jacks a few bytes (in the form of a packet) into the
UartByte interface.  Those bytes are interpreted as a packet by the
computer, telling the computer the test passed.  When the computer doesn't
get the message, the test fails by timing out, signifying a broken UartByte
interface.
