    pty: reconnect the BSD TIOCSPTLCK handling to legacy ptys · 342a5971
    Linus Torvalds 提交于
    David Howells noticed (due to the compiler warning about an unused
    'pty_ops_bsd' variable) that we haven't actually been using the code
    that implements TIOCSPTLCK for legacy pty handling.  It's been that way
    since 2.6.26, commit 3e8e88ca to be
    exact ("pty: prepare for tty->ops changes").
    
    DavidH initially submitted a patch just removing the dead code entirely,
    and since nobody has apparently ever complained, I'm not entirely sure
    that wouldn't be the right thing to do.  But since the whole and only
    point of the legacy pty code is to be compatible with legacy distros
    that don't use the new unix98 pty model, let's just wire it up again.
    
    And clean it up a bit while we're at it.
