Raw Normal View History Unescape

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 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!

The SA1100 serial port had its major/minor numbers officially assigned:

remove mentionings of devfs in documentation Now that devfs is removed, there's no longer any need to document how to do this or that with devfs. This patch includes some improvements by Joe Perches. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

You must create those inodes in /dev on the root filesystem used
by your SA1100-based device:

mknod ttySA0 c 204 5
mknod ttySA1 c 204 6
mknod ttySA2 c 204 7
mknod cusa0 c 205 5
mknod cusa1 c 205 6
mknod cusa2 c 205 7
In addition to the creation of the appropriate device nodes above, you
must ensure your user space applications make use of the correct device
name. The classic example is the content of the /etc/inittab file where
you might have a getty process started on ttyS0. In this case:
- replace occurrences of ttyS0 with ttySA0, ttyS1 with ttySA1, etc.
- don't forget to add 'ttySA0', 'console', or the appropriate tty name
in /etc/securetty for root to be allowed to login as well.
