To build. The 'Halve tty buffer memory consumption' patchset exports new methods that allow the driver to configure the maximum memory consumption by the tty buffers. This fwserial patchset uses that new interface to rely on tty buffers to provide adequate rx buffering, rather than add'l rx buffering being done by the driver. By halving the buffer memory consumption, I don't feel so guilty about doubling the limit :) Regards, Peter Hurley
