Subject: [PATCH v6] earlycon: 8250: Fix command line regression
Restore undocumented behavior of kernel command line parameters of
the forms:
console=uart[8250],io|mmio|mmio32,<addr>[,options]
console=uart[8250],<addr>[,options]
where 'options' have not been specified; in this case, the hardware
is assumed to be initialized.
Fixes: c7cef0a84912cab3c9df8 ("console: Add extensible console matching")
Reported-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@...nel.org>
Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@...leysoftware.com>
---
v6: Removed documentation
+ removed unnecessary checks; this fix does not attempt to replicate
the _exact_ original behavior, but only the reported breakage.
v5: Refactored serial8250_console_setup() & univ8250_console_setup()
to eliminate open-coding; net +1 LOC (excludes documentation)
v4: Removed FIXME comment
v3: Fixed automatic console to port line settings initialization;
open-coded serial8250_console_setup() so the baud can be probed;
added sha reference in commit log
v2: Fixed regression which allowed "console=uart1337,..." to start a
console (but not an earlycon)
+ fixed earlycon= documentation related required behavior fixed by
this patch
