tty: bfin_jtag_comm: emulate a TTY over the Blackfin EMUDAT/JTAG interface

2009-06-11T15:51:06+00:00

The Blackfin JTAG interface has a 4 byte generic data field (EMUDAT).  With
a little creative thinking, we can turn this into a TTY device.

[S390] s390/hvc_console: z/VM IUCV hypervisor console support

2008-12-25T12:39:03+00:00

This patch introduces a new hypervisor console (HVC) back-end that provides
terminal access over the z/VM inter-user communication vehicle (IUCV).

The z/VM IUCV communication is independent of the regular tcp/ip network
and allows access even if there is no network connection between two
z/VM guest virtual machines.
The z/VM IUCV hypervisor console back-end helps the user to access a
z/VM guest virtual machine that lacks of network connectivity; and thus,
provides a "full-screen" terminal alternative to 3215/3270 terminal sessions.

Use the hvc_iucv=[0..8] kernel boot parameter to specify the number of
HVC terminals using a z/VM IUCV back-end.

A recent version of the s390-tools package is required to establish a
terminal connection to a z/VM IUCV hypervisor console back-end.

powerpc: udbg-based backend for hvc_console

2008-11-19T05:04:25+00:00

This adds a new backend for the hvc console based on the low-level
udbg callbacks.  This effectively implements a working runtime console
in terms of the simple udbg primitives.  This is kind of a hack -
since udbg isn't something you really want to be using routinely - but
it's really useful during bringup.

This can be used to quickly implement a userspace-usable console while
you're working on a proper driver for whatever console I/O device the
hardware has.  Or, it can be used to avoid writing a full blown
tty/console driver entirely for quick-and-dirty I/O hardware that will
later be replaced by something else.

CHAR: Delete old and now unused M48T35 RTC driver for SGI IP27.

2008-10-30T14:44:35+00:00

It was only used by this one SGI platform which recently was converted to
RTC_LIB and with RTC_LIB enabled the legacy drivers are no more selectable.

tty: split the buffering from tty_io

2008-10-13T16:51:40+00:00

The two are basically independent chunks of code so lets split them up for
readability and sanity. It also makes the API boundaries much clearer.
