linux-toradex.git/drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_tile.c, branch v4.9 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_tile.c: properly return -EAGAIN 2015-05-11T15:22:20+00:00 Chris Metcalf cmetcalf@ezchip.com 2015-05-04T21:25:12+00:00 b4287df82991ca608f44d7ac12ad9b3bc39d5baa We were returning zero if no bytes could be written to the Tilera hypervisor console device, but this causes the output to be truncated. By returning -EAGAIN the tty hvc driver will come back and try again, which gives the semantics we want, and avoids dropping console output.

tile: various console improvements 2013-08-12T18:46:18+00:00 Chris Metcalf cmetcalf@tilera.com 2013-08-06T18:11:21+00:00 bda0f5bad812df076a28fa5e58d86dfe68415251 This change improves and cleans up the tile console. - We enable HVC_IRQ support on tilegx, with the addition of a new Tilera hypervisor API for tilegx to allow a console IPI. If IPI support is not available we fall back to the previous polling mode. - We simplify the earlyprintk code to use CON_BOOT and eliminate some of the other supporting earlyprintk code. - A new tile_console_write() primitive is used to send output to the console and is factored out of the hvc_tile driver. This lets us support a "sim_console" boot argument to allow using simulator hooks to send output to the "console" as a slightly faster alternative to emulating the hardware more directly.
