In U-Boot, we implemented the networked console via the standard
|
||
|
"devices" mechanism, which means that you can switch between the
|
||
|
serial and network input/output devices by adjusting the 'stdin' and
|
||
|
'stdout' environment variables. To switch to the networked console,
|
||
|
set either of these variables to "nc". Input and output can be
|
||
|
switched independently.
|
||
|
|
||
|
On the host side, please use this script to access the console:
|
||
|

#! /bin/bash
|
||
|
|
||
|
TARGET_IP=$1
|
||
|
|
||
|
stty -icanon -echo intr ^T
|
||
|
nc -u -l -p 6666 < /dev/null &
|
||
|
nc -u ${TARGET_IP} 6666
|
||
|
stty icanon echo intr ^C

For Linux, the network-based console needs special configuration.
|
||
|
Minimally, the host IP address needs to be specified. This can be
|
||
|
done either via the kernel command line, or by passing parameters
|
||
|
while loading the netconsole.o module (when used in a loadable module
|
||
|
configuration). Please refer to Documentation/networking/logging.txt
|
||
|
file for the original Ingo Molnar's documentation on how to pass
|
||
|
parameters to the loadable module.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The format of the kernel command line parameter (for the static
|
||
|
configuration) is as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
netconsole=[src-port]@[src-ip]/[<dev>],[tgt-port]@<tgt-ip>/[tgt-macaddr]
|
||
|
|
||
|
where
|
||
|
|
||
|
src-port source for UDP packets
|
||
|
(defaults to 6665)
|
||
|
src-ip source IP to use
|
||
|
(defaults to the interface's address)
|
||
|
dev network interface
|
||
|
(defaults to eth0)
|
||
|
tgt-port port for logging agent
|
||
|
(defaults to 6666)
|
||
|
tgt-ip IP address for logging agent
|
||
|
(this is the required parameter)
|
||
|
tgt-macaddr ethernet MAC address for logging agent
|
||
|
(defaults to broadcast)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Examples:
|
||
|
|
||
|
netconsole=4444@10.0.0.1/eth1,9353@10.0.0.2/12:34:56:78:9a:bc
|
||
|
|
||
|
or
|
||
|
|
||
|
netconsole=@/,@192.168.3.1/
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please note that for the Linux networked console to work, the
|
||
|
ethernet interface has to be up by the time the netconsole driver is
|
||
|
initialized. This means that in case of static kernel configuration,
|
||
|
the respective Ethernet interface has to be brought up using the "IP
|
||
|
Autoconfiguration" kernel feature, which is usually done by defaults
|
||
|
in the ELDK-NFS-based environment.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To browse the Linux network console output, use the 'netcat' tool invoked
|
||
|
as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
nc -u -l -p 6666
