The variable selected_console is set in __add_preferred_console() to point to the last console parameter that was added to the console_cmdline array. Rename it to preferred_console so that the name reflects the usage. Petr Mladek: "[..] the selected_console/preferred_console value is used to keep the console first in the console_drivers list. IMHO, the main effect is that each line will first appear on this console, see call_console_drivers(). But the message will still appear also on all other enabled consoles. From this point, the name "preferred" sounds better to me. More consoles are selected (enabled) and only one is preferred (first)."

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
