Hi,

I have a question concerning the line discipline behaviour for serial
devices.
When the line discipline is set via ioctl from  user space to e.g. N_PPP and 
the userspace program returns without resetting  the line discipline back to 
N_TTY, the serial device cannot be used (ENODV) until an appropriate  ioctl (to 
N_TTY) is performed. Is there any reason for the fact that the line discipline 
is not reset by the kernel , when closing the device. 

Could you please CC me on answers and comments ?


Kind regards,

Christopher Meller
