From 01a5e440c91dc6065cf3dbc38aa7276fc4ce2f26 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Hurley Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2013 08:38:20 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] n_tty: Lock access to tty->pgrp for POSIX job control Concurrent access to tty->pgrp must be protected with tty->ctrl_lock. Also, as noted in the comments, reading current->signal->tty is safe because either, 1) current->signal->tty is assigned by current, or 2) current->signal->tty is set to NULL. NB: for reference, tty_check_change() implements a similar POSIX check for the ioctls corresponding to tcflush(), tcdrain(), tcsetattr(), tcsetpgrp(), tcflow() and tcsendbreak().
