um: clean Kconfig up a bit
* kill duplicates with drivers/char/Kconfig * take watchdog one into drivers/watchdog/Kconfig * take mmapper to arch/um/Kconfig.um * rename Kconfig.char menu to "UML Character Devices" Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>

A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two
|
||||
halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to
|
||||
a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to
|
||||
read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a
|
||||
terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers
|
||||
and xterms.
|

|
||||
Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx for
|
||||
masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals. This scheme
|
||||
has a number of problems. The GNU C library glibc 2.1 and later,
|
||||
however, supports the Unix98 naming standard: in order to acquire a
|
||||
pseudo terminal, a process opens /dev/ptmx; the number of the pseudo
|
||||
terminal is then made available to the process and the pseudo
|
||||
terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was
|
||||
traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example.
|
||||
|
||||
All modern Linux systems use the Unix98 ptys. Say Y unless
|
||||
you're on an embedded system and want to conserve memory.
