From 79901317ce80c43a0249ccc6e3fea9d0968e159e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Hurley Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2013 16:44:23 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] n_tty: Don't flush buffer when closing ldisc A buffer flush is both undesirable and unnecessary when the ldisc is closing. A buffer flush performs the following: 1. resets ldisc data fields to their initial state 2. resets tty->receive_room to indicate more data can be sent 3. schedules buffer work to receive more data 4. signals a buffer flush has happened to linked pty in packet mode Since the ldisc has been halted and the tty may soon be destructed, buffer work must not be scheduled as that work might access an invalid tty and ldisc state. Also, the ldisc read buffer is about to be freed, so that's pointless. Resetting the ldisc data fields is pointless as well since that structure is about to be freed. Resetting tty->receive_room is unnecessary, as it will be properly reset if a new ldisc is reopened. Besides, resetting the original receive_room value would be wrong since the read buffer will be gone. Since the packet mode flush is observable from userspace, this behavior has been preserved. The test jig originally authored by Ilya Zykov and signed off by him is included below. The test jig prompts the following warnings which this patch fixes.
