2007-11-05serial: fix compile warning about putcYinghai Lu1-2/+2
drivers/serial/8250_early.c:80: warning: conflicting types for built-in function `putc' Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai.lu@sun.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2007-08-03serial: fix 8250 early console setupDaniel Ritz1-1/+1
the early setup function serial8250_console_early_setup() can be called from non __init code (eg. hotpluggable serial ports like serial_cs) so remove the __init from the call chain to avoid crashes.

2007-07-24Use resource_size_t for serial port IO addressesJosh Boyer1-4/+6
At present, various parts of the serial code use unsigned long to define resource addresses. This is a problem, because some 32-bit platforms have physical addresses larger than 32-bits, and have mmio serial uarts located above the 4GB point. This patch changes the type of mapbase in both struct uart_port and struct plat_serial8250_port to resource_size_t, which can be configured to be 64 bits on such platforms. The mapbase in serial_struct can't safely be changed, because that structure is user visible.

2007-07-16serial: convert early_uart to earlycon for 8250Yinghai Lu1-58/+59
Beacuse SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is removed from include/asm-i386/serial.h and include/asm-x86_64/serial.h. the serial8250_ports need to be probed late in serial initializing stage. the console_init=>serial8250_console_init=> register_console=>serial8250_console_setup will return -ENDEV, and console ttyS0 can not be enabled at that time. need to wait till uart_add_one_port in drivers/serial/serial_core.c to call register_console to get console ttyS0. that is too late. Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier. Make it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover feature. and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console automatically. new command line will be: console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 or earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8 it will print in very early stage: Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8') console [uart0] enabled later for console it will print: console handover: boot [uart0] -> real [ttyS0] Signed-off-by: <yinghai.lu@sun.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Cc: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2006-03-20[SERIAL] kernel console should send CRLF not LFCRRussell King1-7/+2
Glen Turner reported that writing LFCR rather than the more traditional CRLF causes issues with some terminals. Since this aflicts many serial drivers, extract the common code to a library function (uart_console_write) and arrange for each driver to supply a "putchar" function.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
