2017-07-11Allow displaying the U-Boot banner on a video displaySimon Glass
At present the U-Boot banner is only displayed on the serial console. If this is not visible to the user, the banner does not show. Some devices have a video display which can usefully display this information. Add a banner which is printed after relocation only on non-serial devices if CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO_LATE is defined.

2015-11-19console: Add a console bufferSimon Glass
It is useful to be able to record console output and provide console input via a buffer. This provides sandbox with the ability to run a command and check its output. If the console is set to silent then no visible output is generated. This also provides a means to fix the problem where tests produce unwanted output, such as errors or warnings. This can be confusing. We can instead set the console to silent and record this output. It can be checked later in the test if required. It is possible that this may prove useful for non-test situations. For example the console output may be suppressed for normal operations, but recorded and stored for access by the OS. That feature is not implemented at present. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2015-11-19Move console definitions into a new console.h fileSimon Glass
The console includes a global variable and several functions that are only used by a small subset of U-Boot files. Before adding more functions, move the definitions into their own header file. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
2009-07-18stdio/device: rework function naming conventionJean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD
So far the console API uses the following naming convention: ======Extract====== typedef struct device_t; int device_register (device_t * dev); int devices_init (void); int device_deregister(char *devname); struct list_head* device_get_list(void); device_t* device_get_by_name(char* name); device_t* device_clone(device_t *dev); ======= which is too generic and confusing. Instead of using device_XX and device_t we change this into stdio_XX and stdio_dev This will also allow to add later a generic device mechanism in order to have support for multiple devices and driver instances.
