From 42458f41d08f0873299e830464c1232a6839297d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Hurley Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2013 13:59:46 -0500 Subject: n_tty: Ensure reader restarts worker for next reader A departing reader must restart a flush_to_ldisc() worker _before_ the next reader enters the read loop; this is to avoid the new reader concluding no more i/o is available and prematurely exiting, when the old reader simply hasn't re-started the worker yet.
