Hi,
I'm playing with a serial device and got a nice oops. Maybe after some
weird stty's, I don't know. But it dies in uart_dtr_rts:
.loc 1 1535 0
movq (%rbx), %r13 # port_1(D)->tty, D.26746
...
.loc 1 1494 0
testb $2, 224(%r13) #, D.26746_10->flags
^^^^^^^^^
HERE
Because r13 (port->tty) is NULL. So the question is about the principle.
Should it call tty_port_tty_get or is it a bug in the TTY layer and
uart_dtr_rts should not be called with port->tty == NULL?
I'll attach a patch which does the former as a reply to this message.
BTW only serial_core needs tty in dtr_rts.
thanks,
