Subject: [PATCH] tty: Fix unreasonable write toward closed pty.
Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2012 22:59:19 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50D20E87.9060403@ilyx.ru> (raw)

We should not write toward the closed pty. 
Now it happens, if one side close last file descriptor,
and other side in this moment write to it.
It also prevents scheduling unnecessary work.
