tty: move hvc drivers to drivers/tty/hvc/

2011-01-13T20:03:00+00:00

As requested by Arnd Bergmann, the hvc drivers are now moved to the drivers/tty/hvc/ directory. The virtio_console.c driver was also moved, as it required the hvc_console.h file to be able to be built, and it really is a hvc driver. Cc: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

hvc_console: make the ops pointer const.

2010-02-24T03:52:32+00:00

This is nicer for modern R/O protection. And noone needs it non-const, so constify the callers as well. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell Signed-off-by: Amit Shah To: Christian Borntraeger Cc: linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org

[POWERPC] hvc_rtas_init() must be __init

This fixes the following section mismatch: <-- snip --> ... WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x2fbca8): Section mismatch in reference from the function .hvc_rtas_init() to the function .devinit.text:.hvc_alloc() ... <-- snip --> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

[POWERPC] Quiet section mismatch in hvc_rtas.c

[POWERPC] Make the hvc_console output buffer size settable

2006-07-13T08:53:32+00:00

So the iSeries console will be faster since it can send up to 200 bytes at a time to the Hypervisor. This only affects the tty part of the console, the console writes are still in 16 byte lots. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell

[PATCH] powerpc: Cleanup hvc_rtas.c a little

2006-06-09T11:24:20+00:00

A few cleanups in hvc_rtas.c: 1. Remove unused RTASCONS_PUT_ATTEMPTS 2. Remove unused rtascons_put_delay. 3. Use i as a loop counter like everyone else on earth. 4. Remove pointless variables, eg. x = foo; if (x) return something_else; 5. Whitespace cleanups and formatting. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

[PATCH] powerpc: add hvc backend for rtas

2006-03-28T05:45:28+00:00

Current Cell hardware is using the console through a set of rtas calls. This driver is needed to get console output on those boards. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras
