From 4d18e6eff81e1d4d81d0942d5b7e96904b3b32df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Hurley Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2013 12:09:55 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] tty: Enable configurable tty flip buffer limit Allow driver to configure its maximum flip buffer memory consumption/limit. This is necessary for very-high speed line rates (in excess of 10MB/sec) because the flip buffers can be saturated before the line discipline has a chance to throttle the input.
