Adding serial consoles to this variable makes systemd attempt to start a
Getty instance on them. Getty has no retry limit and no retry timout.
I'm sure you can guess where this is going.

This fixes the endless start / stop Getty on ttyS0/ttyS3 messages that
will flood the log until it's full.

In the case of Jailhouse demos, the getty systemd service should be
invoked upon demo start and stopped upon end of the demo. It should not
be listed as a system serial interface since it will not be present
during normal device operation.

Before anyone asks, SERIAL_CONSOLES_CHECK only works on the sysVinit
script so it's not worth discussing as a solution here.


Sounds like the better solution then is to fix systemd to timeout
on SERIAL_CONSOLES_CHECK. We are not the only board with multiple
possible terminals in OE right now. Making systemd match sysv here
is something worth doing.


No, if a user logs out the serial-getty instance is restarted. If the console 
isn't present when the service first starts then the service should be 
restarted until it is. It's functioning as intended, do not edit that service.


If a user logs out it will return 0 and will be restarted "on-success".
If the console is not present the service *should* fail as it was told
to start on a non-existent console.

If you want to handle the case of a late attaching tty device, you
can have the service try again on attach, that functionality is part
of systemd/udev already.

The current behavior in this service does not match sysv nor what
SERIAL_CONSOLES_CHECK is meant for, and so should be fixed.

Not tested but a bbappends that changes the service reset might do:
