David S. Miller fb445ee5f9 [SERIAL]: Fix section mismatches in Sun serial console drivers.
We're exporting an __init function, oops :-)

The core issue here is that add_preferred_console() is marked
as __init, this makes it impossible to invoke this thing from
a driver probe routine which is what the Sparc serial drivers
need to do.

There is no harm in dropping the __init marker.  This code will
actually work properly when invoked from a modular driver,
except that init will probably not pick up the console change
without some other support code.

Then we can drop the __init from sunserial_console_match()
and we're no longer exporting an __init function to modules.

Martin Habets 58d784a5c7 [SERIAL] sparc: Infrastructure to fix section mismatch bugs.
This patch against 2.6.23 sparc-2.6.git contains a number of minor
cleanups of the sparc serial drivers.  Initially I fixed this build
warning:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x107a2c): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:add_preferred_console (between 'sunserial_console_match' and 'sunserial_console_termios')

which is done by declaring sunserial_console_match() as __init.  This
resulted in build warnings on sunserial_current_minor.  To resolve
these the variable was changed so it is no longer global, and to hide
operations on it inside 2 new functions. These functions handle the
UART minor handling code that is common to all sparc serial drivers.

These changes allowed to clean up the uart counters in all the sparc
serial drivers, and the administration of minor device numbers.

Lastly, sunserial_console_termios() does not need to be exported since
it is only called from non-modular code.

Sadly, the following build warning still exists:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(__ksymtab+0x2910): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:sunserial_console_match (between '__ksymtab_sunserial_console_match' and '__ksymtab_sunserial_unregister_minors')

This could be resolved by not exporting sunserial_console_match(), but
this is not possible at the moment because it is being called from
modular code. On the other hand, this is a bogus warning since it
comes from a ksymtab section.

David S. Miller c73fcc846c [SPARC]: Fix serial console device detection.
The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which
is wrong.

The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias
or similar to a full path name to the console device.

Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a
colon at the end of the path.  The option area is used to specify
which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a
device node drives multiple ports.  'a' is assumed if the option
specification is missing.

This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator.  The 'output-device'
property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this
is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'.  Instead we saw it
as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console.

The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve
the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too.

Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

Jan Engelhardt b00ccd0f0b [SPARC]: Linux always started with 9600 8N1
The Linux kernel ignored the PROM's serial settings (115200,n,8,1 in
my case). This was because mode_prop remained "ttyX-mode" (expected:
"ttya-mode") due to the constness of string literals when used with
"char *". Since there is no "ttyX-mode" property in the PROM, Linux
always used the default 9600.

[ Investigation of the suncore.s assembler reveals that gcc optimizied
  away the stores, yet did not emit a warning, which is a pretty
  anti-social thing to do and is the only reason this bug lived for
  so long -DaveM ]

Eddie C. Dost c126cf80d4 [SPARC64]: Serial Console for E250 Patch
From: Eddie C. Dost <ecd@brainaid.de>

I have the following patch for serial console over the RSC
(remote system controller) on my E250 machine. It basically adds
support for input-device=rsc and output-device=rsc from OBP, and
allows 115200,8,n,1,- serial mode setting.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 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!
