[PATCH] serial: fix TIOCSRS485 locking

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

 



The RS485 multipoint addressing support for some reason added a new
ADDRB termios cflag which is (only!) updated from one of the RS485
ioctls.

Make sure to take the termios rw semaphore for the right ioctl (i.e.
set, not get).

Fixes: ae50bb275283 ("serial: take termios_rwsem for ->rs485_config() & pass termios as param")

I did not have time to review the multipoint addressing patches at the
time and only skimmed the archives now, but I can't seem to find any
motivation for why a precious termios bit was seemingly wasted on ADDRB
when it is only updated from the RS485 ioctls.

I hope it wasn't done just to simplify the implementation of
tty_get_frame_size()? Or was it a left-over from the RFC which
apparently actually used termios to enable this feature?

Should we consider dropping the Linux-specific ADDRB bit again?
