- tty-flush-flip-buffer-on-ldisc-input-queue-flush.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     tty: flush flip buffer on ldisc input queue flush
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     tty-flush-flip-buffer-on-ldisc-input-queue-flush.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: tty: flush flip buffer on ldisc input queue flush
From: Paul Fulghum <paulkf@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Flush the tty flip buffer when the line discipline input queue is flushed,
including the user call tcflush(TCIFLUSH/TCIOFLUSH).  This prevents
unexpected stale data after a user application calls tcflush().
