Fix the 'renaming kludge' that we absolutely cannot do going forward (it's cost us days of engineering time). console=comconsole talks to the hardware directly. This is available only on amd64. It is not available anywhere else (and so requires changes for people doing comconsole on aarch64) console=eficom talks to the console via EFI protocols. It's available on amd64, aarch64 and riscv64. It's the first port that we find, though it can be overriden by efi_com_port (which should be set to the UID of the serial port, not the I/O port, despite the name). devinfo -v will give the UID to uartX mapping. This is an incompatible change for HYPER-V on amd64. It only works with eficom console, so you'll need to change your configuration in loader.conf. No compatibility hack will ever be provided for this (since it requires renamig, which the loader cannot reliably do). It's also an incompatible change for aarch64. comconsole will need to change to eficom. There might be a comconsole "shim" for this. All the interlock to keep only eficom and comconsole from both attaching have been removed.

FreeBSD Source:
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory. Additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information.
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7), config(8), FreeBSD handbook on building userland, and Handbook for kernels for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
For information on the CPU architectures and platforms supported by FreeBSD, see the FreeBSD website's Platforms page.
