Thanks Alan.  As always, you're a great help.

I've made some progress adding support for tty_port.  I'm registering the ISR in
the tty_port .activate function.

I see something weird, though.  I lose the console after I log in:

p4080 login: root
Password:
ehv_bc_tty_open:442 ttys=dce50000 stdout_irq=68
ehv_bc_tty_close:450 tty=dce50000
ls

logout
ehv_bc_tty_close:450 tty=dce50000
ehv_bc_console_device:390
ehv_bc_tty_open:442 ttys=dce50000 stdout_irq=68










p4080 login:

The "ehv_bc_..." lines are my debug printks.

When I type "ls", I don't get a listing.  The "logout" occurs after I press ^D.
