I just had the following warning in 2.0.25:
foo kernel: Warning: dev (04:c5) tty->count(1) != #fd's(2) in do_tty_hangup
This appears to happen sometimes when a ssh connection is terminated, from random pty's.
This bug has been there for quite some time, and looks like a race condition in the pty or tty code to me.
Does anybody have any hints where I should start looking for race conditions? -- Thomas Koenig, Thomas.Koenig@ciw.uni-karlsruhe.de, ig25@dkauni2.bitnet. The joy of engineering is to find a straight line on a double logarithmic diagram.
