Here is the big set of tty and serial driver patches for 4.17-rc1 Not all that big really, most are just small fixes and additions to existing drivers. There's a bunch of work on the imx serial driver recently for some reason, and a new embedded serial driver added as well. Full details are in the shortlog. All of these have been in the linux-next tree for a while with no reported issues.

This console uses the JTAG DCC on ARM to create a console under the HVC

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.
