Robert Watson	5276d7471f	Rename use_old_pty variable to use_pts, as this more accurately reflects ... the sense of the variable. Suggested by: dwhite	2006-01-28 23:31:19 +00:00
Olivier Houchard	23c15e6437	Merge a bunch of changes that where done in tty_pty.c after tty_pts.c was ... forked from it, but missed from some reason.	2006-01-27 15:13:40 +00:00

Olivier Houchard	169c44907a	Don't attempt to re-create the /dev entry for the slave part if it already ... exist when opening the master. This can happen if one open the master, then open the slave, then close and re-open the master. Reported by: Peter Holm	2006-01-26 20:54:49 +00:00
Olivier Houchard	12af2a0f4f	Bring in a sysv-style pts implementation, as found in the rwatson_pts perforce branch. It works the same as its SysV/linux counterpart : You obtain a fd to the master pseudo terminal by opening /dev/ptmx, which craetes a node for the master as /dev/pty[num] and a node for the slave as /dev/pts/[num]. ... It should play nicely with the existing BSD ptys. By default, the system will use the BSD ptys, one can set the sysctl kern.pts.enable to 1 to make it use the new pts system. The max number of pty that can be allocated on a system can be changed with the sysctl kern.pts.max. It defaults to 1000, and can be increased, but it is not recommanded, as any pty with a number > 999 won't be handled by whatever uses utmp(5).	2006-01-26 01:30:34 +00:00
