[Minios-devel] Serial console handling of carriage-return and newline



Hi,

The mini-os console_print() function converts \n to \r\n sequences. This is probably helpful when the serial port is used as a text console but causes problems if a binary protocol is used across the serial
interface.

One such example is using the Windows Kernel debugger between domains (using IOEMU stubdoms).

Could this be considered a bug or would it be better to introduce a new type of console, say 'rawpty', that when specified in the xl.cfg file disables the built-in processing for that serial port?

I'd be happy to create patches for either solution.

- Simon
