how kernel tty driver prevent multi-user program race condition

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hi all:
if there are many usermode program try to open /dev/ttyS1 for example
and read/write the /dev/ttyS1 at the same time.

Did kernel tty driver so far handle the race condition above not to
let the message interleaved?

such as
user A --> send "abcd" --> ttyS1
user B --> send "1234"  --> ttyS1

how to make sure the serial Tx of ttyS1 will send either "abcd1234" or
"1234abcd" sequencially instead of "a1b2c3d4", etc.

appreciate your kind explaination in advance,
