* MFC r262957, r267591, r289634:gjb2015-10-281-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | r262957 (marcel): Change the terminal type/class for enabled serial lines to 3wire. This allows us to change the uart(4) driver to not hardcode specific line settings for the serial console. A terminal type of 3wire makes sure the console still works when no DCD signal is present, which preserves behviour. When it is known that the terminal server (or DCE in general) provides DCD, a terminal type/class of std can be used. This has the effect of being logged out when one disconnects from the console -- improving security overall. r267591 (grehan): Convert the potential console port over to using 3wire, for i386/amd64. r289634: Enable all callin ttys if the tty is an available console.

* MFC r260913,266895:nwhitehorn2014-06-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Add a new flag to /etc/ttys: onifconsole. This is equivalent to "on" if the device is an active kernel console and "off" otherwise. This is designed to allow serial-booting x86 systems to provide a login prompt on the serial line by default without providing one on all systems by default. Set this flag on x86 systems for ttyu0.

* Remove the reference to pseudo-terminals from the description.ed2011-03-301-3/+2
| | | | | Pseudo-terminals are no longer listed in this file, since the utmpx implementation doesn't depend on ttyslot().
* Remove pseudo-terminals from ttys(5).ed2010-01-271-257/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | When we had utmp(5), we had to list all the psuedo-terminals in ttys(5) to make ttyslot(3) function properly. Now that pututxline(3) deals with slot allocation internally (not based on TTY names), we don't need to list all the TTYs on the system in ttys(5) to make user accounting work properly. This patch removes all the entries from the /etc/ttys files, but also the pts(4) entries that were appended implicitly, which was added in r154838.
* Convert syscons on i386 to TERM=xterm.ed2009-11-131-9/+9
| | | | | TEKEN_XTERM is now gone. Because we always use xterm mode now, we only need a TEKEN_CONS25 switch to go back to cons25.
* Remove the note about using vt220, which makes no sense at all.ed2009-06-141-3/+1
| | | | | | vt220 will not work better. Even though it probably will remove warnings about unknown terminal types, a cons25 emulator is not compatible with vt220 at all.
* Remove pts(4) entries from /etc/ttys.ed2009-02-121-512/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Even though I increased the amount of pts(4) entries in /etc/ttys some time ago, I didn't realize back then those entries shouldn't have been there in the first place. I just looked at the getttyent() source code and it turns out when you call setttyent(), it walks through /dev/pts and looks for the device with the highest number. After you receive EOF's from getttyent(), it makes up entries for pts(4) devices. This means that adding entries for pts(4) is somewhat harmful, because if you now traverse the list, you get redundant entries, so just remove them.
* Restore 256 pty(4) entries.ed2008-08-241-0/+256
| | | | | | | | | | | | As discussed with Robert Watson on the src-committers list, it is safer to keep at least some pty(4) entries in /etc/ttys, for applications that roll their own PTY allocation routine and only search for BSD-style PTY's. This means we've now just toggled the amount of entries for pts(4) and pty(4). Requested by: rwatson
* Remove old BSD-style entries from /etc/ttys and increase pts(4) to 512.ed2008-08-231-512/+256
| | | | | | | | | Because we now use pts(4)-style PTY's exclusively, there is no use for these entries in /etc/ttys. Right now the pts(4) entries only go from 0 to 255. Because we're going to touch these files anyway, increase the number to 511. Discussed with: philip (ex-mentor)
* Make uart(4) the default serial port driver on i386 and amd64.ed2008-07-131-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | The uart(4) driver has the advantage of supporting a wider variety of hardware on a greater amount of platforms. This driver has already been the standard on platforms such as ia64, powerpc and sparc64. I've decided not to change anything on pc98. I'd rather let people from the pc98 team look at this.
