https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D277848 Bug ID: 277848 Summary: uart(4): hw.uart.console variable is not documented Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: emaste@freebsd.org Typical configuration for SuperMicro SOL redirection uses COM2 0x2f8/IRQ3. Achieving a working serial console on other than COM1 in an EFI environment requires setting the hw.uart.console variable, but it is not documented in uart(4). It is mentioned in passing in loader.efi though: The FreeBSD kernel will look at the hw.uart.console variable to set its ser= ial console. Its format should be described in uart(4) but is not. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
