From 24a7d449b066bdba8b8b2486dc481f02043e0656 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Corbin Date: Wed, 23 May 2012 09:37:31 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] serial_core: Update buffer overrun statistics. Currently, serial drivers don't report buffer overruns. When a buffer overrun occurs, tty_insert_flip_char returns 0, and no attempt is made to insert that same character again (i.e. it is lost). This patch reports buffer overruns via the buf_overrun field in the port's icount structure.
