Hi, I don't think they depend on any changes. > 2. Why didn't you use tty_port_open()/close()/etc. as Alan > suggested my in [1]? This was not intended to fix anything particular. If it does, it is a pure coincidence... These patches are a minimalistic subset to ensure every driver has its own tty_port for each tty. We will need this pairing later. So the switch of the driver to the new tty port API, as suggested by Alan, is still needed. I might do that later if I learn how to make UML work. (The conversion is by definition invasive and needs runtime testing.) > [1] > http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1201.3/01705.html thanks, -- js suse labs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
