Subject: Two fixes for pseudo-ttys
Index: sys/sys/tty_pty.c 4.2BSD
Description:
1) When the slave end of a pseudo-tty closes, the controlling
side is not informed if it is already trying to read from
the device.
2) As it says in the manual, it should be but isn't possible to
send an end-of-file to the slave side by the controlling side
doing a 0-length write in TIOCREMOTE mode.
Repeat-By:
1) The following short program may or may not cause the parent to
wait forever in the read(), depending on whether it gets there
before the child exits. It is always possible to put a sleep()
in the child process before the exit to ensure the parent gets
to read.
main()
{
switch(fork()){
case -1:
perror("fork");
break;
case 0:
child();
/*NOTREACHED*/
default:
parent();
/*NOTREACHED*/
}
exit(1);
}
child()
{
register int fd;
if((fd = open("/dev/ttyp4", 1)) == -1){
perror("/dev/ttyp4");
exit(1);
}
(void) write(fd, "Hello world\n", 12);
exit(0);
}
parent()
{
register int fd, n;
char buf[100];
if((fd = open("/dev/ptyp4", 2)) == -1){
perror("/dev/ptyp4");
exit(1);
}
while((n = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf))) > 0)
(void) write(1, buf, n);
if(n == -1)
perror("read");
else
printf("EOF");
exit(0);
}
2) Typing EOF to a process expecting input from a shell window in
EMACS - the process is undisturbed.
Fix:
The following is a diff -c of the original 4.2BSD module with the
current one.
The EOF fix comes from David Rosenthal, David.Rosenthal at CMU-CS-A.ARPA
