From 9558b48af006a34d3ab7f0bd13a76b97acd45e47 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Graeme Russ Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2011 00:48:27 +0000 Subject: console: Implement pre-console buffer Allow redirection of console output prior to console initialisation to a temporary buffer. To enable this functionality, the board (or arch) must define: - CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER - Enable pre-console buffer - CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR - Base address of pre-console buffer - CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ - Size of pre-console buffer (in bytes) The pre-console buffer will buffer the last CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ bytes Any earlier characters are silently dropped. --- arch/sparc/include/asm/global_data.h | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) (limited to 'arch/sparc') diff --git a/arch/sparc/include/asm/global_data.h b/arch/sparc/include/asm/global_data.h index 9b146748d9..a1e4b44aac 100644 --- a/arch/sparc/include/asm/global_data.h +++ b/arch/sparc/include/asm/global_data.h @@ -53,6 +53,9 @@ typedef struct global_data { unsigned long env_valid; /* Checksum of Environment valid? */ unsigned long have_console; /* serial_init() was called */ +#ifdef CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER + unsigned long precon_buf_idx; /* Pre-Console buffer index */ +#endif #if defined(CONFIG_LCD) || defined(CONFIG_VIDEO) unsigned long fb_base; /* Base address of framebuffer memory */ #endif -- cgit v1.2.3
