Mon Apr 28 13:42:43 UTC 2025 - Dr. Werner Fink <[email protected]>
- Update to version 2.35
* Make s390 3215 console work that is use EPOLLOUT|EPOLLONESHOT
to control if we can write to ttyS0 in nonblocking mode and if
not reenable EPOLLOUT|EPOLLONESHOT.
* At boot set for ttyS0 via vmcp API nonblocking MORE mode with
`0 0'. It beeps but boots.
- Remove patches now upstream
* blog-3215.patch
* blog-install.patch
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 17 13:04:07 UTC 2025 - Dr. Werner Fink <[email protected]>
- Add patch blog-3215.patch
* Try to avoid blocking mode of 3215 console on s390x as holding
the output at `MORE' stops blogd, that is that it can not see
any messages over its socket like switch of the root file system.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Wed Apr 16 13:04:40 UTC 2025 - Dr. Werner Fink <[email protected]>
- Update to version 2.34
* Make it work on s390x (still no 3215 console)
This is a bug fix release. But still no support in conmode
3215 as there is a race triggered by using conmode 3215.
The order of the systemd units seems to change with this
console mode.
