[yocto] An embarrassment of TTYs

[Mehaffey, John]

Hi Paul,
Look for CONFIG_LEGACY_PTY* in your config and tune those values.

You can ssh without any legacy PTYs.

Sincerely,

Subject: [yocto] An embarrassment of TTYs

My core-image-base build seems to have blessed me with 256 pseudoterminal
devices and 325 TTY devices. I really don't deserve this generosity. Is this
normal, or am I just a lucky guy? More to the point, where do I donate the
excess back, so I can live with a more modest number of these devices? I'd
like to be able to do "ls /dev/*" without having my recent activity
disappear off the top of my terminal window scrollback.
