The
SERIAL_CONSOLE
variable has been functionally replaced by the
SERIAL_CONSOLES
variable for some time.
With the Yocto Project 2.6 release,
SERIAL_CONSOLE
has been officially deprecated.
SERIAL_CONSOLE
will continue to work as
before for the 2.6 release.
However, for the sake of future compatibility, it is recommended
that you replace all instances of
SERIAL_CONSOLE
with
SERIAL_CONSOLES
.
SERIAL_CONSOLES
expects entries to be
separated using semicolons as compared to
SERIAL_CONSOLE
, which expects spaces.
