[PATCH net 0/3] SLCAN/SLIP fixes and performance

From: Andre Naujoks
Date: Fri Sep 13 2013 - 13:37:29 EST


Hi Dave,

these are some loosely related patches, that fix an ancient locking problem in
the slip and slcan drivers, add general ASCII-HEX to bin functions for
uppercase ASCII, fix the handling of CAN RTR frames in the slcan driver
and increase the performance for the slcan driver.

As these patches mainly contain fixes for the slip/slcan drivers that require
a tty layer fix included in 3.11, I would suggest to get the patches in via
the net tree for the 3.12 cycle. They should apply properly on the latest net
and mainline tree.

Best regards,
Andre

slip/slcan: added locking in wakeup function
