Hi,
Yes, it's true.
In practice there is no difference using SERIAL_CONSOLE with -L
parameter or USB_SERIAL_CONSOLE.
I have introduced this new variabile only for emphasize that physically
is different and works in a different way (with -L param).
When make a new conf you could save a lot of time viewing in code that
is possible to use getty with a suitable configuration for your usb
console only adding -L.
Otherwise, unless new var adding, I can use SERIAL_CONSOLE with -L
putting a comment in my machine/config file explaining that. And in a
second time we can see if is correct to introduce a new var for this scope.
Regards,
Matteo Facchinetti

Hi,
I apologize for coming into this late, but could you give a quick explanation
of why a
new variable is needed? In other words, what is wrong with something like:
SERIAL_CONSOLE="-L /dev/ttyUSB0 115200"

USB_SERIAL_CONSOLE is similar to SERIAL_CONSOLE but SERIAL_CONSOLE variabile
isn't described too.
IMHO could be need to add a new paragraph describing all kind of CONSOLE
available for machine conf file.
Where's the right place to add these variabiles in usermanual?

There are many evaluationboard that use mini-usb port like as
a serial port + power supply. Using it as serial console have
to force getty with no need for carrier detect.
