Linux kernel source tree
b19448fe84
Currently powerpc early debugging contains lot of platform specific options, but does not support standard UART / serial 16550 console. Later legacy_serial.c code supports registering UART as early debug console from device tree but it is not early during booting, but rather later after machine description code finishes. So for real early debugging via UART is current code unsuitable. Add support for new early debugging option CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_16550 which enable Serial 16550 console on address defined by new option CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_16550_PHYSADDR and by stride by option CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_16550_STRIDE. With this change it is possible to debug powerpc machine descriptor code. For example this early debugging code can print on serial console also "No suitable machine description found" error which is done before legacy_serial.c code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
