From 3b19e032295647b7be2aa3be62510db4aaeda759 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Hurley Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2015 09:21:32 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] n_tty: signal and flush atomically When handling signalling char, claim the termios write lock before signalling waiting readers and writers to prevent further i/o before flushing the echo and output buffers. This prevents a userspace signal handler which may output from racing the terminal flush. Reference: Bugzilla #99351 ("Output truncated in ssh session after...")
