Just a quick update: the previously posted patch *does* work; the crash I was experiencing was pilot error. My NTP server is running a 3.8.0-rc6-dirty kernel right now. I'll research whether that race I talk about in pps_tty_dcd_change is actually possible or not (can interrupts start arriving before the ->open() method returns?) and work out a finished minimal bugfix patch if nobody else finds a better solution. Sorry for the delay tracking this down; I've known about the crash for a week or so now, but was short of around tuitts to track it down. (Have I mentioned how ANNOYING it is when the kernel dumps more than 50 lines of crash message to the console screen and then locks the keyboard so I can't scroll back?) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
