From 44e1279970d306b0da4fcc11f9e780915f481819 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Purdie Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2025 19:58:52 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] scritps/runqemu: Ensure we only have two serial ports I have a theory that some of the console boot issues we're seeing are due to starting images with three serial ports yet only starting gettys on two of them. This means that occasionally, depending on the port numbering we may not get a login prompt on the console we expect it on. To fix this, change the runqemu code so that if serial ports are passed in on the commandline (as is the case in automated testing), we don't add any other GUI serial consoles. We do need to make sure we do have at least two serial ports since we don't want getty timeout warnings.
