branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/2018.11.x
Buildroot built with systemd fails to open a login prompt on the
serial port when /dev/console is specified as BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_GETTY_PORT
(which is its default value):
systemd[1]: dev-console.device: Job dev-console.device/start timed out.
systemd[1]: Timed out waiting for device /dev/console.
systemd[1]: Dependency failed for Serial Getty on console.
systemd[1]: serial-getty at console.service: Job serial-getty at console.service/start failed with result 'dependency'.
systemd[1]: dev-console.device: Job dev-console.device/start failed with result 'timeout'.
systemd[1]: Reached target Login Prompts.
systemd[1]: Reached target Multi-User System.
According to this issue on Github [1], serial-getty at .service should
not be instantiated on /dev/console, console-getty at .service should
be used instead. This stems from the fact that there should be no
dependency on /dev/console.
