Due to the way the VT console layer works, the drivers\nthemselves decide when to bind or unbind. However, it was decided that\nbinding must be controlled, not by the drivers themselves, but by the VT\nconsole layer. With this, dynamic binding is possible for all VT console\ndrivers, not just fbcon.\n\nThus, the VT console layer will impose the following to all VT console\ndrivers:\n\n- all registered VT console drivers will be entered in a private list\n- drivers can register themselves to the VT console layer, but they cannot\n decide when to bind or unbind. (Exception: To maintain backwards\n compatibility, take_over_console() will automatically bind the driver after\n registration.)\n- drivers can remove themselves from the list by unregistering from the VT\n console layer. A prerequisite for unregistration is that the driver must not\n be bound.\n\nThe following functions are new in the vt.c:\n\nregister_con_driver() - public function, this function adds the VT console\ndriver to an internal list maintained by the VT console\n\nbind_con_driver() - private function, it binds the driver to the console\n\ntake_over_console() is changed to call register_con_driver() followed by a\nbind_con_driver(). This is the only time drivers can decide when to bind to\nthe VT layer. This is to maintain backwards compatibility.\n\nunbind_con_driver() - private function, it unbinds the driver from its\nconsole. The vacated consoles will be taken over by the default boot console\ndriver.\n\nunregister_con_driver() - public function, removes the driver from the\ninternal list maintained by the VT console. It will only succeed if the\ndriver is currently unbound.\n\ncon_is_bound() checks if the driver is currently bound or not\n\ngive_up_console() is just a wrapper to unregister_con_driver().\n\nThere are also 3 additional functions meant to be called only by the tty layer\nfor sysfs control:\n\n\tvt_bind() - calls bind_con_driver()\n\tvt_unbind() - calls unbind_con_driver()\n\tvt_show_drivers() - shows the list of registered drivers\n\nMost VT console drivers will continue to work as is, but might have problems\nwhen unbinding or binding which should be fixable with minimal changes.\n\nSigned-off-by: Antonino Daplas \u003cadaplas@pol.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "76a8ad293912cd2f01eca075d80cd0ddec30c627", "tree": "1ff683dcd5b1351b403d3efe701d0dd9eddcd773", "parents": [ "8ae6e163c1b637e1cb125613726ffbd31ca44fdf" ], "author": { "name": "Michael Ellerman", "email": "michael@ellerman.id.au", "time": "Sun Jun 25 05:47:40 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sun Jun 25 10:01:05 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] Make printk work for really early debugging\n\nCurrently printk is no use for early debugging because it refuses to\nactually print anything to the console unless\ncpu_online(smp_processor_id()) is true.\n\nThe stated explanation is that console drivers may require per-cpu\nresources, or otherwise barf, because the system is not yet setup\ncorrectly. Fair enough.\n\nHowever some console drivers might be quite happy running early during\nboot, in fact we have one, and so it\u0027d be nice if printk understood that.\n\nSo I added a flag (which I would have called CON_BOOT, but that\u0027s taken)\ncalled CON_ANYTIME, which indicates that a console is happy to be called\nanytime, even if the cpu is not yet online.\n\nTested on a Power 5 machine, with both a CON_ANYTIME driver and a bogus\nconsole driver that BUG()s if called while offline.
