n_tty_receive_parity_error(9)

💖 NAME 💖

n_tty_receive_parity_error — error notifier. okay so this page is from the Kernel API Manual, and we're talking about n_tty_receive_parity_error(9) — tiny terminal helper, big main character energy. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void n_tty_receive_parity_error (const struct tty_struct *tty , u8 c );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• tty — terminal device. the terminal in question, bestie.
• c — character. literally the character.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so what this does: it processes a parity error and queues the right data to indicate the error case if necessary. that's the whole plot. no cap. 🫶

Locking note, bestie: on the n_tty_receive_buf/producer path, the caller holds non-exclusive termios_rwsem. respect the lock vibe, fr fr. 🔒✨
