Indeed. I am wondering why it was put in a tree and sent to Linus without any Acks or even being replied to by anyone. It appeared in the tty tree between Oct 14 and Oct 25 (while I was unfortunately on vacation). If anyone had tried to boot this on any PowerPC server, it would have been immediately obvious (as it was when I booted Linus' tree last night). And the original author expressed doubts as to his understanding of how it should all work anyway. Just a little more care, please. I would vote for reverting the original and having it resubmitted with corrections at some later date. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/ [-- Attachment #2: Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 836 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Ping ... Linus can you please just revert 361162459f62dc0826b82c9690a741a940f457f0 "hvc_console: display printk messages on console" as it breaks consoles for all PowerPC server machines. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/ [-- Attachment #2: Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 836 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Thanks for doing this, I was going to include it in my next pull request after 3.2-rc1 was out, but you are right, it should have gone in sooner. greg k-h ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
