Fix for ftdi_set_termios() glitching output ftdi_set_termios() is constantly setting the baud rate, data bits and parity unnecessarily on every call, . When called while characters are being transmitted can cause the FTDI chip to corrupt the serial port bit stream output by stalling the output half a bit during the output of a character. Simple fix by skipping this setting if the baud rate/data bits/parity are unchanged. Signed-off-by: Andrew Worsley <amworsley@gmail.com> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> ---- I had a brief run with strace on the getty and it was doing ioctl()s on each call but it didn't look relavant to the problem. I think the issue is that XON/XOFF flow control was being implmented via hardware - for the ixoff to allow the user to use XON/XOFF to control output. Unfortunately it would send 3 Control URBs updating all of the settings after each piece of input I am trying to work around the issue of gmail messing with the tab/spacing by submitting via SMTP via gmail which I believe should fix the issue. The patch is against v3.2-rc2 and compiles - but no additional testing in this kernel has been done. Thanks Andrew Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
