be activated as part of the slot config options.
The syntax is:
-s <slotnum>,uart[,stdio]
The stdio parameter instructs the code to perform i/o using
stdin/stdout. It can only be used for one instance.
To allow legacy i/o ports/irqs to be used, a new variant of
the slot command, -S, is introduced. When used to specify a
slot, the device will use legacy resources if it supports
them; otherwise it will be treated the same as the '-s' option.
Specifying the -S option with the uart will first use the 0x3f8/irq 4
config, and the second -S will use 0x2F8/irq 3.
Interrupt delivery is awaiting the arrival of the i/o apic code,
but this works fine in uart(4)'s polled mode.
This code was written by Cynthia Lu @ MIT while an intern at NetApp,
with further work from neel@ and grehan@.

Includes instruction emulation for memory r/w access. This
opens the door for io-apic, local apic, hpet timer, and
legacy device emulation.
