Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: console_initcall ordering issues
Date: Sat, 10 Jun 2006 22:16:23 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060610121622.GQ23891@krispykreme> (raw)
From: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga•com>
The add_preferred_console call in rtas_console.c was not causing the
console to be selected. It turns out that the add_preferred_console
was being called after the hvc_console driver was registered. It only
works when it is called before the console driver is registered.
Reorder hvc_console.o after the hvc_console drivers to allow the selection
during console_initcall processing.
