Cover letter [PATCH v4 0/5] LDC changes for porting VCC driver into upstream kernel
This series of patches is part of an effort to add VCC (Virtual Console Concentrator) support to Linux.
VCC enables the virtualization of serial console on SPARC processors. VCC provides access to the guest domain's serial console.
VCC depends on some core functionalities in the linux kernel for SPARC. The functionalities include LDC (Logical Domain Channels), MDESC (Machine Descriptor) and VIO (Virtual IO protocol). In order for VCC to be enabled, it requires that these core functionalities support them.
This series of patches adds LDC support to enable VCC on Linux. It is the first batch of changes to enable VCC.
This version 4 of the series addresses the following changes suggested by Dave Miller
Patch 1/5: Modifies ldc_print/__ldc_print to print caller name. Fixes
