2013-01-29staging/fwserial: Create loop device the 'tty' wayGravatar Peter Hurley 1-13/+0
Register a second tty driver to create loopback devices for each firewire node. Note that the loopback devices are numbered from 0; the tty->index is transformed when used to index the port table. Remove the hack that previously enabled this. Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2013-01-07staging/fwserial: Update TODO file per reviewer commentsGravatar Peter Hurley 1-8/+3
Pursuant to this review https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/12/500 by Stefan Richter, update the TODO file. - Clarify purpose of TODO file - Remove firewire item #4. As discussed in this conversation https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/13/564 knowing the AR buffer size is not a hard requirement. The required rx buffer size can be determined experimentally. - Remove firewire item #5. This was a private note for further experimentation. - Change firewire item #1. Change suggested header from uapi header to kernel-only header.
