| 2017-11-08 | tty: Remove redundant license text | Greg Kroah-Hartman | 1 | -13/+0 | |
| Now that the SPDX tag is in all tty files, that identifies the license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all. This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never needed. No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

| 2017-11-08 | tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/ | Greg Kroah-Hartman | 1 | -0/+1 | |
| It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

| 2017-06-03 | tty: handle the case where we cannot restore a line discipline | Alan Cox | 1 | -0/+80 | |
| Historically the N_TTY driver could never fail but this has become broken over time. Rather than trying to rewrite half the ldisc layer to fix the breakage introduce a second level of fallback with an N_NULL ldisc which cannot fail, and thus restore the guarantees required by the ldisc layer. We still try and fail to N_TTY first. It's much more useful to find yourself back in your old ldisc (first attempt) or in N_TTY (second attempt), and while I'm not aware of any code out there that makes those assumptions it's good to drive(r) defensively.
