Thanks much for that again. Any chance you have sysrq enabled and could print: locks held in system and kernel backtraces for applications? I suppose, userspace hangs in n_tty_receive_buf_common(), which is better of cause than null-ptr dereference, but I believe we can improve it by stopping a reader earlier if there is any writer pending. -- Thanks, Dmitry
