This is caused by the serport device driver not supporting compat_ioctl, so that SPIOCSTYPE ioctl fails. > > Signed-off-by: John Sung > --- > drivers/input/serio/serport.c | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 24 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/input/serio/serport.c b/drivers/input/serio/serport.c > index 0cb7ef5..4b68c29 100644 > --- a/drivers/input/serio/serport.c > +++ b/drivers/input/serio/serport.c > @@ -22,6 +22,8 @@ > #include > #include > > +#include > + > MODULE_AUTHOR("Vojtech Pavlik "); > MODULE_DESCRIPTION("Input device TTY line discipline"); > MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); > @@ -31,6 +33,8 @@ MODULE_ALIAS_LDISC(N_MOUSE); > #define SERPORT_ACTIVE 2 > #define SERPORT_DEAD 3 > > +#define SPIOCSTYPE32 (_IOW('q', 0x01, compat_ulong_t)) > + > struct serport { > struct tty_struct *tty; > wait_queue_head_t wait; > @@ -221,6 +225,25 @@ static int serport_ldisc_ioctl(struct tty_struct * tty, struct file * file, unsi > return -EINVAL; > } > > +static long serport_ldisc_compat_ioctl(struct tty_struct *tty, struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) > +{ > + struct serport *serport = (struct serport*) tty->disc_data; > + unsigned long type; > + > + if (cmd == SPIOCSTYPE32) { > + if (get_user(type, (unsigned long __user *) arg)) > + return -EFAULT; > + > + serport->id.proto = type & 0x000000ff; > + serport->id.id = (type & 0x0000ff00) >> 8; > + serport->id.extra = (type & 0x00ff0000) >> 16; > + > + return 0; > + } > + > + return -EINVAL; > +} > + > static void serport_ldisc_write_wakeup(struct tty_struct * tty) > { > struct serport *serport = (struct serport *) tty->disc_data; > @@ -243,6 +266,7 @@ static struct tty_ldisc_ops serport_ldisc = { > .close = serport_ldisc_close, > .read = serport_ldisc_read, > .ioctl = serport_ldisc_ioctl, > + .compat_ioctl = serport_ldisc_compat_ioctl, I think this, and serport_ldisc_compat_ioctl definition, should be protected by #ifdef OCNFIG_COMPAT. Also, instea dof replicating the ioctl definition and parsing, could we combine the code a bit? Thanks. -- Dmitry
