Subject: [Linux-ia64] Non-legacy serial port console support using SPCR table in ACPI 2.0
Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2000 19:12:39 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-ia64-105590678205734@msgid-missing> (raw)

I am bringing Linux up on a McKinley platform simulator. For the
bringup, I am looking into adding support for non-legacy serial port
console. ACPI 2.0 includes a Serial Port Console Redirection Table which
defines the serial port console (SPCR table definition can be found at
<http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/headless/download/SerialPortRedir.zip>).
I am looking into adding support for the serial port defined by this
table. I would also like to add support for the Debug Port as defined by
the Debug Port Table (DBGP table definition can be found at
<http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/newPC/debugspec.htm>.

Is anyone else looking into doing this? If so, please let me know so we
can collaborate and not have duplication of effort.
