Subject: [PATCH v4 0/4] serial: fix ioctl hangup race
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 15:08:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910130816.642699-1-johan@kernel.org> (raw)
The tty ioctls can race with hangup and end up calling into a tty
driver for a device that is already gone or powered down.
Included since v3 are also two related fixes for issues highlighted by
Sashiko.
