[PATCH] uml: Rename Kconfig files to be like the other arches
To the extent that sub-Kconfig files exist elsewhere in the tree, they are
named Kconfig.foo, rather than the Kconfig_foo that UML has. This patch
brings the names in line with the rest of the tree.

111 | bool "Unix98 PTY support" | ||
112 | ---help--- | ||
113 | A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two | ||
114 | halves: a master and a slave. The slave device behaves identical to | ||
115 | a physical terminal; the master device is used by a process to | ||
116 | read data from and write data to the slave, thereby emulating a | ||
117 | terminal. Typical programs for the master side are telnet servers | ||
118 | and xterms. | ||
119 | |||
120 | Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx for | ||
121 | masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo terminals. This scheme | ||
122 | has a number of problems. The GNU C library glibc 2.1 and later, | ||
123 | however, supports the Unix98 naming standard: in order to acquire a | ||
124 | pseudo terminal, a process opens /dev/ptmx; the number of the pseudo | ||
125 | terminal is then made available to the process and the pseudo | ||
126 | terminal slave can be accessed as /dev/pts/<number>. What was | ||
127 | traditionally /dev/ttyp2 will then be /dev/pts/2, for example. | ||
128 | |||
129 | All modern Linux systems use the Unix98 ptys. Say Y unless | ||
130 | you're on an embedded system and want to conserve memory. | ||

136 | A pseudo terminal (PTY) is a software device consisting of two | ||

142 | |||
143 | Linux has traditionally used the BSD-like names /dev/ptyxx | ||
144 | for masters and /dev/ttyxx for slaves of pseudo | ||
145 | terminals. This scheme has a number of problems, including | ||
146 | security. This option enables these legacy devices; on most | ||

155 | The maximum number of legacy PTYs that can be used at any one time. | ||

195 | help | ||
196 | This option enables UML's "hardware" random number generator. It | ||
197 | attaches itself to the host's /dev/random, supplying as much entropy | ||
198 | as the host has, rather than the small amount the UML gets from its | ||
199 | own drivers. It registers itself as a standard hardware random number | ||
200 | generator, major 10, minor 183, and the canonical device name is | ||
201 | /dev/hwrng. | ||
202 | The way to make use of this is to install the rng-tools package | ||
203 | (check your distro, or download from | ||
204 | http://sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/). rngd periodically reads | ||
205 | /dev/hwrng and injects the entropy into /dev/random. | ||
