I don't know why this happens, but happens. On kernel 2.6.23 Which ioctl is making it go silly ? > tty_mode_ioctl().

It's very useful as we now know what change has had the effect, but not what your pppd is doing which is breaking it (and thus where the real bug may lie) > --- a/drivers/net/ppp_async.c. 2008-06-09 13:12:25.000000000 -0300 > +++ b/drivers/net/ppp_async.c 2008-06-09 13:15:57.000000000 -0300 > @@ -309,6 +309,11 @@ > err = 0; > break; > > + case TCGETS: > + case TCGETA: > + err = tty_mode_ioctl(tty, file, cmd, arg); > + break; > + > case TCFLSH: > /* flush our buffers and the serial port's buffer */ > if (arg == TCIOFLUSH || arg == TCOFLUSH) > @@ -324,8 +329,7 @@ > break; > > default: > - /* Try the various mode ioctls */ > - err = tty_mode_ioctl(tty, file, cmd, arg); > + err = -ENOIOCTLCMD; Can you add a printk to log which ioctl calls end up here and what they return (both with/without the patch). That should give the needed info to identify what is being done and returned which then breaks it. >From that I can work out what is going on and what the right fix may be.
