Subject: [PATCH 07/19] n_tty: Fix unsafe reference to "other" ldisc
Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2015 16:39:04 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1448660356-6328-8-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1448660356-6328-1-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com>
Although n_tty_check_unthrottle() has a valid ldisc reference (since
the tty core gets the ldisc ref in tty_read() before calling the line
discipline read() method), it does not have a valid ldisc reference to
the "other" pty of a pty pair. Since getting an ldisc reference for
tty->link essentially open-codes tty_wakeup(), just replace with the
equivalent tty_wakeup().
