From 61eaf539b9fb4926ed57e38f6545100c3432cf1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wessel Date: Thu, 20 May 2010 21:04:31 -0500 Subject: earlyprintk,vga,kdb: Fix \b and \r for earlyprintk=vga with kdb Allow kdb to work properly with with earlyprintk=vga by interpreting the backspace and carriage return output characters. These interpretation of these characters is used for simple line editing provided in the kdb shell. CC: Thomas Gleixner CC: Ingo Molnar CC: H.
