+ Generic "hypervisor virtual console" infrastructure for various

+ pSeries machines when partitioned support a hypervisor virtual

+ depends on PPC
+ select HVC_DRIVER
+ help
+ This is meant to be used during HW bring up or debugging when
+ no other console mechanism exist but udbg, to get you a quick
+ console for userspace. Do NOT enable in production kernels.

+config HVC_DCC
+ bool "ARM JTAG DCC console"
+ depends on ARM || ARM64
+ select HVC_DRIVER
+ select SERIAL_CORE_CONSOLE
+ help
+ This console uses the JTAG DCC on ARM to create a console under the HVC
+ driver. This console is used through a JTAG only on ARM. If you don't have
+ a JTAG then you probably don't want this option.
+
+config HVC_DCC_SERIALIZE_SMP
+ bool "Use DCC only on CPU core 0"
+ depends on SMP && HVC_DCC
+ help
+ This is a DEBUG option to serialize all console input and output to CPU 0.
+ Some external debuggers, do not handle reads/writes from/to DCC on more
+ than one CPU core. Each core has its own DCC device registers, so when a
+ CPU core reads or writes from/to DCC, it only accesses its own DCC device.
+ Since kernel code can run on any CPU core, every time the kernel wants to
+ write to the console, it might write to a different DCC.
+
+ In SMP mode, external debuggers create multiple windows, and each window
+ shows the DCC output only from that core's DCC. The result is that
+ console output is either lost or scattered across windows.
+
+ Enable this option only if you are sure that you do not need features like
+ CPU hotplug to work. For example, during early chipset bringups without
+ debug serial console support. If unsure, say N.
+
+config HVC_RISCV_SBI
+ bool "RISC-V SBI console support"
+ depends on RISCV_SBI_V01
+ select HVC_DRIVER
+ help
+ This enables support for console output via RISC-V SBI calls, which
+ is normally used only during boot to output printk.
+
+ If you don't know what do to here, say Y.
+
+config HVCS
+ tristate "IBM Hypervisor Virtual Console Server support"
+ depends on PPC_PSERIES && HVC_CONSOLE
+ help
+ Partitionable IBM Power5 ppc64 machines allow hosting of
+ firmware virtual consoles from one Linux partition by
+ another Linux partition. This driver allows console data
+ from Linux partitions to be accessed through TTY device
+ interfaces in the device tree of a Linux partition running
+ this driver.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called hvcs. Additionally, this module
+ will depend on arch specific APIs exported from hvcserver.ko
+ which will also be compiled when this driver is built as a
+ module.
