Regarding UART(UART is printing infinite times, though not used any loops)

   Respected Experts,
                      I am Ravi Kumar.N. I am using 386EX processor for
one of my application. This processor has an inbuilt UART. I have
configured the UART and it is printing the things whatever I want to
print but, it is printing the things infinite times though I have not
used any loops.

For Eg: If I try to print any string like "xyz".  It prints the string
"xyz" infinite times. Thus the same string will be printed infinite
times.

Note: I have not placed the print statement inside any loops. Even so,
printing is taking place infinite times. I have disabled all the
interupts.

What could be the reason for this?

With Regards,
    Ravi Kumar.N

There is something wrong with your code, either the driver for the
UART itself, or your code that sends data to the UART.  Unless you
show us the code, we have no idea what is wrong with it.
