[Skiboot] [PATCH 09/14] console: add opal_con_ops API

Oliver O'Halloran oohall at gmail.com
Fri Nov 18 16:01:47 AEDT 2016


Adds a new structure that contains the implementations of the various
OPAL console handlers. This is intended to replace the existing ad-hoc
mechanism where the OPAL call handlers are overwritten in the OPAL
console driver's init function.

Currently this just moves the site where the OPAL call handlers are
overwritten to inside of console.c, but it is intended to give us a
mechanism for implementing features such as pointer validation for the
OPAL console calls without having to manually update each driver.

This also helps to clarify differences between the internal (skiboot)
console and the external (OPAL) console.
