Subject: serial console autodetection not working on powermac
Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2007 15:40:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071201144021.GA13898@aepfle.de> (raw)
How is the serial console autodetection supposed to work with current
kernels? arch/powerpc/kernel/legacy_serial.c is not compiled unless
CONFIG_PPC_UDBG_16550 is selected.
Even if I force this config option, legacy_serial_console remains -1 and
the ch-a/ch-b check in check_legacy_serial_console() does not trigger.
Can the ch-a/ch-b check in check_legacy_serial_console() trigger anyway?
The autodetection used to work in earlier kernels.
A compiletime check for CONFIG_SERIAL_PMACZILOG_TTYS is also required,
to switch between ttyS and ttyPZ. Currently ttyS is hardcoded.
