[PATCH] new tty buffering locking fix

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Change locking in the new tty buffering facility
from using tty->read_lock, which is currently
ignored by drivers and thus ineffective.
New locking uses a new tty buffering specific lock
enforced centrally in the tty buffering code.

Two drivers (esp and cyclades) are updated to use
the tty buffering functions instead of accessing
tty buffering internals directly. This is required
for the new locking to work.

Minor checks for NULL buffers added to
tty_prepare_flip_string/tty_prepare_flip_string_flags
