TTY: Fix tty miss restart after we turn off flow-control
I meet emacs hang in start if I do the operation below: 1: echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches 2: emacs BigFile 3: Press CTRL-S follow 2 immediately Then emacs hang on, CTRL-Q can't resume, the terminal hang on, you can do nothing with this terminal except close it. The reason is before emacs takeover control the tty, we use CTRL-S to XOFF it. Then when emacs takeover the control, it may don't use the flow-control, so emacs hang. This patch fix it. This patch will fix a kind of strange tty relation hang problem, I believe I meet it with vim in ssh, and also see below bug report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=465823 Signed-off-by: Wang YanQing <udknight@gmail.com> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
