32 does seem a pretty odd default.
Ubuntu has
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=48 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS=32
So it is not something entirely specific to openSUSE.
Right - I guess it's a kernel default that was changed at some point. For amusement, going even further back in time - in 2.6.25 :
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=4 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS=4
:-)
OK, let's go for some amusement. We have such tool, it's called "git" and it can tell you rather quickly where that "some point" was. And in this particular case, it could even point you to bsc#652954 and this bug then to
Right, that's what Stefan also posted yesterday.
I don't say I agree with the reasoning, personally I think that four would be reasonable default for openSUSE (and you don't even have to put the module parameter on kernel command line, that's what /etc/modprobe.d exists for),
Just fyi, there is no module, it is built-in. Kernel argument seems to be the only way.
but there is really no need to pretend there is some dark mystery about the change(s).
Nono, I wasn't trying to suggest anything like that. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.8°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
