There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the code than simply try and patch it up. This patch - splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly later) - introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device - fixes the complete mess that hangup caused - implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems. This fixes the following known bugs - hang up can leak ldisc references - hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way - pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change - reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports. I'm sure it also adds the odd new one. Signed-off-by: NAlan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Before trying to tackle the ldisc bugs the code needs to be a good deal more readable, so do the simple extractions of routines first. Signed-off-by: NAlan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Currently function tty_ldisc_get() tries to load an ldisc driver module only when tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EAGAIN. This happens only if module is being unloaded. If ldisc module is not loaded tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EINVAL and this case is not handled in tty_ldisc_get(), so request_module() is not called. Attached patch fixes this by calling request_module() if tty_ldisc_try_get() returned any error code. I discovered this when my UMTS modem stopped working with 2.6.27-rc1 because module ppp_async was not loaded.
