Squashed backup commit (no shallow-clone history issues) of xiaomi-mt6833-dev/kernel_xiaomi_mt6833 (lineage-23.2 branch, upstream commit 9eece662e) plus all fixes applied to get everpal_defconfig building clean against a modern (GCC 15.2.0) toolchain -- see the previous commit message on the lineage-23.2 branch (also in this repo history is not available here since this is a squashed snapshot; full incremental history lives in the local DL380 checkout and the upstream GitHub remote).

Each mount of the devpts filesystem is now distinct such that ptys
|
|
and their indicies allocated in one mount are independent from ptys
|
|
and their indicies in all other mounts.
|
|
|
|
All mounts of the devpts filesystem now create a /dev/pts/ptmx node
|
|
with permissions 0000.
|
|
|
|
To retain backwards compatibility the a ptmx device node (aka any node
|
|
created with "mknod name c 5 2") when opened will look for an instance
|
|
of devpts under the name "pts" in the same directory as the ptmx device
|
|
node.
|
|
|
|
As an option instead of placing a /dev/ptmx device node at /dev/ptmx
|
|
it is possible to place a symlink to /dev/pts/ptmx at /dev/ptmx or
|
|
to bind mount /dev/ptx/ptmx to /dev/ptmx. If you opt for using
|
|
the devpts filesystem in this manner devpts should be mounted with
|
|
the ptmxmode=0666, or chmod 0666 /dev/pts/ptmx should be called.
|
|
|
|
Total count of pty pairs in all instances is limited by sysctls:
|
|
kernel.pty.max = 4096 - global limit
|
|
kernel.pty.reserve = 1024 - reserved for filesystems mounted from the initial mount namespace
|
|
kernel.pty.nr - current count of ptys
|
|
|
|
Per-instance limit could be set by adding mount option "max=<count>".
|
|
This feature was added in kernel 3.4 together with sysctl kernel.pty.reserve.
|
|
In kernels older than 3.4 sysctl kernel.pty.max works as per-instance limit.
