From: Alan Cox Date: Thu, 3 May 2012 21:22:09 +0000 (+0100) Subject: pty: Lock the devpts bits privately X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d739e65bb21d34f0f5d3bf4048410e534fbec148;p=linux-beck.git pty: Lock the devpts bits privately This is a private pty affair, we don't want to tangle it with the tty_lock any more as we know all the other non tty locking is now handled by the vfs so we too can move.
