Subject: [patch 0/2] serial: explicitly request ttyS0-3 for COM1-4
Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2008 10:05:41 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080116170541.511233227@ldl.fc.hp.com> (raw)
When 8250_pnp discovers COM ports, we only get the correct ttyS names
by accident -- we rely on serial8250_isa_init_ports(), which discovers
the COM ports earlier using the addresses in SERIAL_PORT_DFNS.
These two patches remove the dependency on SERIAL_PORT_DFNS by
explicitly requesting the desired ttyS names.
