How do you configure or set up the kernel to start dumping the data on
this USB port which is sort of acting as serial console port ?
I don't think you can. This kind of debugging is intended for use in
an environment where the software (kernel, ...) can't be trusted. To
use a USB port connected to a serial gizmo, you need a whole lot of
stuff working in order to get good results.
In linux you can pass the serial console parameter using boot loader
config file to kernel and it will start dumping the messages which
goes to system log file to serial console port as well.
What a clever idea. By the most outrageous of coincidences, his is
discussed in documents available on the Apple Developer website
(<http://developer.apple.com>). You can (I did) use the Advanced
Search scheme to make your search more effective.
