T8923: normalize "can not" to "cannot"

2026-06-16T18:24:44+00:00

Replace two-word "can not" / "Can not" with "cannot" across comments, ConfigError messages, CLI help text, and op-mode output. Standard SNMP MIB files under mibs/ are left unchanged.

serial: T8853: limit "kernel" CLI option to ttyS and ttyAMA interfaces only (#5193)

2026-05-13T11:40:07+00:00

Recently (commit 35db941bcf "serial: T8375: add CLI option to explicitly set kernel console") we added the CLI knob to enable the Kernel and GRUB serial console on a given device. Currently this is supported for serial console interfaces starting with ttyS and ttyAMA only. Main limitation is that these interfaces are wired to the CPU and bootloader infos can be displayed.

serial: T8375: call update_serial_console() only once for default tty

2026-04-15T19:19:26+00:00

When there are multiple serial consoles defined; but either none or the last used the 'kernel' CLI option to disply Kernel messages, the GRUB code was called multiple times. By moving the call to the GRUB helpers outside the for loop we gain a single execution of the code path, not that it matters performance wise - but messing with the bootloader should be reduced to a minimum.

serial: T8375: add CLI option to explicitly set kernel console

2026-04-09T18:54:06+00:00

Previously, VyOS hardcoded the kernel boot log console to either ttyS0 or tty0, with no post-install CLI method to change it (manual GRUB edits were required). This commit adds a new CLI node: system console device kernel When set, the selected serial console is used as the kernel boot console. When removed, the kernel boot console falls back to tty0.

serial: T8375: use boot activation script to define a serial console on the CLI

2026-04-09T18:54:06+00:00

Required during first-boot of a system. We have images form amd64 and arm64 CPUs which also tend to have different serial interfaces (ttyS vs. ttyAMA). The images which are installed have the correct serial setting for GRUB (ttyS0 or ttyAMA0) and the activation script will probe the Kernel command-line. If a serial interface is defined, we will include it in the VyOS CLI configuration.

serial: T7484: treat unavailable serial console devices as non-fatal

2025-07-30T20:40:11+00:00

Instead of failing or starting agetty on an invalid device, we now check whether the specified serial console device is a valid TTY. If it's not, we display a warning to the user and skip starting the agetty process.

serial: T7484: remove redundant call to "systemctl daemon-reload"

2025-07-30T20:13:49+00:00

A subsequent call to restart_login_consoles() will always call "systemctl daemon-reload" and thus we can spare one call.

T7591: remove copyright years from source files

2025-06-28T21:16:52+00:00

The legal team says years are not necessary so we can go ahead with it, since it will simplify backporting. Automatically removed using: git ls-files | grep -v libvyosconfig | xargs sed -i -E \ 's/^# Copyright (19|20)[0-9]{2}(-[0-9]{4})? VyOS maintainers.*/# Copyright VyOS maintainers and contributors /g' In addition we will error-out during "make" if someone re-adds a legacy copyright notice
