Linux's netconsole works much better when you can pass it the MAC address of the server. (otherwise it just uses broadcast, which everyone else on my network complains about :)
This sets the evn var "serveraddr" (to match ethaddr), so that you can pass it to linux with whatever bootargs you want to....
addnetconsole=set bootargs $(bootargs) netconsole=@$(ipaddr)/eth0,@$(serverip)/$(serveraddr)
I'm sure this is white space damaged - but you get the idea...
Wolfgang - did you want me to push this through the Blackfin tree (via Mike) or wait for Ben?
If at all this has to go through Ben and his tree.
Note though that I don't think this is intended for inclusion yet - mind the "RFC" part in the subject.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
