Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070012 The User-Mode Linux environment allows you to create virtual serial
13 lines on the UML that are usually made to show up on the host as
14 ttys or ptys.

Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070024 This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial
25 lines to a device similar to /dev/null. Data written to it disappears

Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070031 This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial
32 lines to host portals. They may be accessed with 'telnet <host>
33 <port number>'. Any number of consoles and serial lines may be
34 attached to a single portal, although what UML device you get when
35 you telnet to that portal will be unpredictable.

Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070041 This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial
42 lines to host pseudo-terminals. Access to both traditional

44 with this option. The assignment of UML devices to host devices
45 will be announced in the kernel message log.

Jeff Dike4c9e1382007-10-16 01:26:54 -070051 This option enables support for attaching UML consoles and serial
52 lines to host terminals. Access to both virtual consoles
53 (/dev/tty*) and the slave side of pseudo-terminals (/dev/ttyp* and
