| console driver which dumps all printk messages to stderr. | |

| bool "Virtual serial line" | |
| help | |
| The User-Mode Linux environment allows you to create virtual serial | |
| lines on the UML that are usually made to show up on the host as | |
| ttys or ptys. | |
| See <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/old/input.html> for more | |
| information and command line examples of how to use this facility. | |
| Unless you have a specific reason for disabling this, say Y. | |
| config NULL_CHAN | |
| bool "null channel support" | |
| help | |
| This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial | |
| lines to a device similar to /dev/null. Data written to it disappears | |
| and there is never any data to be read. | |
| config PORT_CHAN | |
| bool "port channel support" | |
| help | |
| This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial | |
| lines to host portals. They may be accessed with 'telnet <host> | |
| <port number>'. Any number of consoles and serial lines may be | |
| attached to a single portal, although what UML device you get when | |
| you telnet to that portal will be unpredictable. | |
| It is safe to say 'Y' here. | |
| config PTY_CHAN | |
| bool "pty channel support" | |
| help | |
| This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial | |
| lines to host pseudo-terminals. Access to both traditional | |
| pseudo-terminals (/dev/pty*) and pts pseudo-terminals are controlled | |
| with this option. The assignment of UML devices to host devices | |
| will be announced in the kernel message log. | |
| It is safe to say 'Y' here. | |
| config TTY_CHAN | |
| bool "tty channel support" | |
| help | |
| This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial | |
| lines to host terminals. Access to both virtual consoles | |
| (/dev/tty*) and the slave side of pseudo-terminals (/dev/ttyp* and | |
| /dev/pts/*) are controlled by this option. | |
| It is safe to say 'Y' here. | |
| config XTERM_CHAN | |
| bool "xterm channel support" | |
| help | |
| This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial | |
| lines to xterms. Each UML device so assigned will be brought up in | |
| its own xterm. | |
| It is safe to say 'Y' here. | |

| string "Default main console channel initialization" | |
| default "fd:0,fd:1" | |
| help | |
| This is the string describing the channel to which the main console | |
| will be attached by default. This value can be overridden from the | |
| command line. The default value is "fd:0,fd:1", which attaches the | |
| main console to stdin and stdout. | |
| It is safe to leave this unchanged. | |
| config CON_CHAN | |
| string "Default console channel initialization" | |
| default "xterm" | |
| help | |
| This is the string describing the channel to which all consoles | |
| except the main console will be attached by default. This value can | |
| be overridden from the command line. The default value is "xterm", | |
| which brings them up in xterms. | |
| It is safe to leave this unchanged, although you may wish to change | |
| this if you expect the UML that you build to be run in environments | |
| which don't have X or xterm available. | |
| config SSL_CHAN | |
| string "Default serial line channel initialization" | |
| default "pty" | |
| help | |
| This is the string describing the channel to which the serial lines | |
| will be attached by default. This value can be overridden from the | |
| command line. The default value is "pty", which attaches them to | |
| traditional pseudo-terminals. | |
| It is safe to leave this unchanged, although you may wish to change | |
| this if you expect the UML that you build to be run in environments | |
| which don't have a set of /dev/pty* devices. | |
| config UML_SOUND | |
| tristate "Sound support" | |
| help | |
| This option enables UML sound support. If enabled, it will pull in | |
| soundcore and the UML hostaudio relay, which acts as a intermediary | |
| between the host's dsp and mixer devices and the UML sound system. | |
| It is safe to say 'Y' here. | |
