Add an instance parameter devpts interfaces

2008-10-13T16:51:43Z

Pass-in 'inode' or 'tty' parameter to devpts interfaces. With multiple devpts instances, these parameters will be used in subsequent patches to identify the instance of devpts mounted. The parameters also help simplify devpts implementation. Changelog[v3]: - minor changes due to merge with ttydev updates - rename parameters to emphasize they are ptmx or pts inodes - pass-in tty_struct * to devpts_pty_kill() (this will help cleanup the get_node() call in a subsequent patch) Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

devpts: factor out PTY index allocation

2008-04-30T15:29:48Z

Factor out the code used to allocate/free a pts index into new interfaces, devpts_new_index() and devpts_kill_index(). This localizes the external data structures used in managing the pts indices.

[PATCH] fix the build with CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS=n

2004-02-24T12:04:36Z

From: Ian Wienand - Fix inline function declarations - Use #ifdef for CONFIG_*, not #if

[PATCH] dynamic pty allocation

2004-02-22T15:01:12Z

From: "H. Peter Anvin" Remove the limit of 2048 pty's - allocate them on demand up to the 12:20 dev_t limit: a million.

[PATCH] devpts cleanup

2002-07-04T15:53:12Z

* devpts "upcalls" eliminated. * instead of playing games with revalidation we simply use ramfs-style tree and kill dentries upon devpts_pty_kill(). That allows to get rid of a lot of code in fs/devpts/*.c. * devpts_fs.h cleaned up. * devpts/root.c and devpts/devpts_i.h removed. * array of pointers to devpts inodes killed; with ramfs-style tree it's not needed anymore. * devpts/inode.c cleaned up. * devpts_pty_new() used to get mk_kdev() only to convert it to dev_t (hardly a surprise, since it's mknod() in disguise). Now it gets dev_t as an argument.
