to a virtual machine then we implicitly create COM1 and COM2 ISA devices. Prior to this change the only way of attaching a COM port to the virtual machine was by presenting it as a PCI device that is mapped at the legacy I/O address 0x3F8 or 0x2F8. There were some issues with the original approach: - It did not work at all with UEFI because UEFI will reprogram the PCI device BARs and remap the COM1/COM2 ports at non-legacy addresses. - OpenBSD GENERIC kernel does not create a /dev/console because it expects the uart device at the legacy 0x3F8/0x2F8 address to be an ISA device. - It was functional with a FreeBSD guest but caused the console to appear on /dev/ttyu2 which was not intuitive. The uart emulation is now independent of the bus on which it resides. Thus it is possible to have uart devices on the PCI bus in addition to the legacy COM1/COM2 devices behind the LPC bus. The command line option to attach ISA COM1/COM2 ports to a virtual machine is "-s <bus>,lpc -l com1,stdio". The command line option to create a PCI-attached uart device is: "-s <bus>,uart[,stdio]" The command line option to create PCI-attached COM1/COM2 device is: "-S <bus>,uart[,stdio]". This style of creating COM ports is deprecated.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ 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, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
