[PATCH 46/67] tty: avoid recursive BTM in pty_close

Previous message: [thread] [date] [author]
Next message: [thread] [date] [author]
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thursday, August 5, 2010 - 3:23 pm

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

When the console has been redirected, a hangup of the tty
will cause tty_release to be called under the big tty_mutex,
which leads to a deadlock because hangup is also called
under the BTM.

This moves the BTM deeper into the tty_hangup function so
we can close the redirected tty without holding the BTM.
In case of pty, we now need to drop the BTM before
calling tty_vhangup.
