From ea3acb199a5d7e4da1de0a4288eba993b29f33b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wessel Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 09:08:30 -0500 Subject: x86: earlyprintk: Fix regression to handle serial,ttySn as 1 arg Commit c953094 ("early_printk: Allow more than one early console") introduced a regression in the parsing of the earlyprintk= kernel arguments. If you specify "earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,115200" as a kernel argument, the "serial,ttyS" should be parsed as a single argument and not as "serial" and then "ttyS". Also update the documentation to reflect you can specify the ttyS directly without the "serial" argument.
