26 If you say Y here, it will be possible to use a USB to serial
27 converter port as the system console (the system console is the
28 device which receives all kernel messages and warnings and which
29 allows logins in single user mode). This could be useful if some
30 terminal or printer is connected to that serial port.
31
32 Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console
33 (/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but
34 you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as
35 "console=ttyUSB0". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
36 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
37 kernel at boot time.)
38
39 If you don't have a VGA card installed and you say Y here, the
40 kernel will automatically use the first USB to serial converter
41 port, /dev/ttyUSB0, as system console.

605 tristate "USB-Wishbone adapter interface driver"
606 help
607 Say Y here if you want to use a USB attached Wishbone bus.
608
609 Wishbone is an open hardware SoC bus commonly used in FPGA
610 designs. Bus access can be serialized using the Etherbone
611 protocol <http://www.ohwr.org/projects/etherbone-core>.
612
613 This driver is intended to be used with devices which attach
614 their internal Wishbone bus to a USB serial interface using
615 the Etherbone protocol. A userspace library is required to
616 speak the protocol made available by this driver as ttyUSBx.
617
618 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
619 module will be called wishbone-serial.
