Indeed Linux does TERM CONMODE.  See
linux/arch/s390/kernel/setup.c:conmode_default().  The s390 kernel has
had a cpcmd() function since the beginning, and it's used for a few
other CP commands too. e.g.  SET PAGEX ON in traps.c.

But remember that IPL CMS will force it back to 3215.
Will "conmode=3270" trick Linux into doing an under-the-covers
TERM CONMODE command?


Yes, I think so.

I don't see how you can run 'ned' on it
if it's still in 3215 mode.   Weird.

I don't think it is.  I think the Linux IPL does an implicit TERM
CONMODE.

This doesn't seem weird, really, since I'm making it do it by putting
"conmode=3270" in the parmline.
