Subject: re /drivers/char/n_tty.c drops characters
Date: Wed, 03 Sep 2008 10:32:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48BE4BA0.3060908@option.com> (raw)

Hi,
There are functions tty_throttle & tty_unthrottle
called from the n_tty line discipline, it might do everything
I want it to do.

I might be plain wrong & casting asparagus about my understanding of
the n_tty & it might not drop packets
in the latest kernel.

If I'm wrong about n_tty.c & being stupid thinking the n_tty layer 
drops packets please inform me & tell me why it doesn't.

Is whats in n_tty bulletproof if used properly.

D.J. Barrow
