From 8a8ae62f8296760a2a1eee7009a1444c327603e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Slaby Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2014 16:56:33 +0100 Subject: tty: warn on deprecated serial flags When somebody calls TIOCSSERIAL ioctl with serial flags to set one of * ASYNC_SESSION_LOCKOUT * ASYNC_PGRP_LOCKOUT * ASYNC_CALLOUT_NOHUP * ASYNC_AUTOPROBE nothing happens. We actually ignore the flags for over a decade at least (I checked 2.6.0). So start yelling at users who use those flags, that they shouldn't.
