Ingo and David, Greg has asked me to get your acks on the r/w semaphore implementation in the first patch, 'tty: Add timed, writer-prioritized rw_semaphore' Would you please review the implementation and comment? This is a re-spin of the remainder of 'ldisc patchset'. The semaphore-related patches of that set have been squashed into the first patch. Sasha and Dave, Please don't run the 44-patch ldisc patchset anymore. That patchset was only partially applied so trinity testing for linux-next may give false assurance that those bugs are fixed. Peter Hurley (7): tty: Add timed, writer-prioritized rw semaphore tty: Add lock/unlock ldisc pair functions tty: Replace ldisc locking with ldisc_sem tty: Clarify ldisc variable tty: Fix hangup race with TIOCSETD ioctl tty: Clarify multiple-references comment in TIOCSETD ioctl tty: Fix tty_ldisc_lock name collision drivers/tty/Makefile | 2 +- drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c | 2 +- drivers/tty/tty_io.c | 7 +- drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c | 447 +++++++++++++++------------------------------ drivers/tty/tty_ldsem.c | 453 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/tty.h | 4 +- include/linux/tty_ldisc.h | 49 ++++- 7 files changed, 653 insertions(+), 311 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/tty/tty_ldsem.c -- 1.8.1.2 -- 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
