2 * The Guest console driver
4 * Writing console drivers is one of the few remaining Dark Arts in Linux.
5 * Fortunately for us, the path of virtual consoles has been well-trodden by
6 * the PowerPC folks, who wrote "hvc_console.c" to generically support any
7 * virtual console. We use that infrastructure which only requires us to write
8 * the basic put_chars and get_chars functions and call the right register
12 /*M:002 The console can be flooded: while the Guest is processing input the
13 * Host can send more. Buffering in the Host could alleviate this, but it is a
14 * difficult problem in general. :*/
