Hi, i have the same question. I'm trying to enable ANDROID_RAM_CONSOLE_EARLY_INIT but i can't find any documentation on the net. I tried to specify the adress and size of the ram_console device which is actually present on my device but then kernel isn't booting anymore (cannot get any debug output of course). I actually cannot figure out how this should work otherwise, specifying some system ram address should be useless since this is cleared during reboot... Can some google employee please explain how to set up an early ram console please?
thnx in advance and kind regards Martin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: manjunatha <[email protected]> Date: 6 Aug. 2009, 16:47 Subject: ram console on android To: android-porting Hi What is purpose of ram console feature in android? How can i make use of that in user space? What device file is required in user space to access? Please point out a any detailed reference for ram console in android or generally. What I observed inram_console.c driver file, there no platform device is registered for defined platform driver "ram_console". The ram console's probe function is not called during booting of target, since there no device registered. On enabling ANDROID_RAM_CONSOLE_EARLY_INIT, what virtual address and buffer size to be given? Please help me out to understand and solve the problem. Thanks in advance.
