I'm in the process of cleaning up various headers for use from userspace, and at the same time I'm working to clean up some of the duplication in the kernel-only portions of those headers. I'm running into one oddity that I can't explain. In the various asm-*/ termios.h files, there are user_termio_to_kernel_termios functions. The m68k header does this:
get_user((termios)->c_line, &(termio)->c_line);
The i386 header is missing that line, and after macro expansion the rest of the context is almost exactly identical. It appears there are a couple other architectures that fall on both sides of the fence. Can anyone explain this apparently aberrant behavior or is this a bug? If there's a reason behind it, I'll make sure to put in a useful comment; otherwise I'll fix it.
Thanks for the help!
Cheers, Kyle Moffett
