[PATCH] Resume TTY on SUSP and fix CRNL order in N_TTY line discipline

From: Joe Peterson
Date: Mon Feb 25 2008 - 01:41:02 EST


Here is a small patch to further refine behavior in n_tty.c. It
addresses two fine points in how received characters are treated - one
to handle the signal chars in stopped TTYs more consistently, and the
other to make the order of cr/nl translations more logical and
consistent with other Unixes when unusual stty settings are used (e.g.
if someone were to set intr to ^J).

-Joe
Refine these behaviors in the N_TTY line discipline:

1) Handle the signal characters consistently when received in
a stopped TTY so that SUSP (typically ctrl-Z) behaves like
INTR and QUIT in resuming a stopped TTY.

2) Adjust the order in which the IGNCR/ICRNL/INLCR processing
is applied to be more logical and consistent with the behavior
of other Unix systems.
