[PATCH v3 1/3] printk: Save console options for add_preferred_console_match()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Driver subsystems may need to translate the preferred console name to the
character device name used. We already do some of this in console_setup()
with a few hardcoded names, but that does not scale well.

The console options are parsed early in console_setup(), and the consoles
are added with __add_preferred_console(). At this point we don't know much
about the character device names and device drivers getting probed.

To allow drivers subsystems to set up a preferred console, let's save the
kernel command line console options. To add a preferred console, let's add
a new function add_preferred_console_match().

This allows the serial core layer to support console=DEVNAME:0.0 style
hardware based addressing in addition to the current console=ttyS0 style
naming. And we can start moving console_setup() character device parsing
to the driver subsystem specific code.

We use a separate array from the console_cmdline array as the character
device name and index may be unknown at the console_setup() time. And we do
not want to call __add_preferred_console() until the character device name
and index are known.

Adding the console name in addition to the character device name, and a
flag for an added console, could be added to the struct console_cmdline.
And the console_cmdline array handling modified accordingly. But that
complicates things compared saving the console options, and then adding
the consoles when the subsystems handling the consoles are ready.
