- * (1) use space in tty->flip instead of a shared temp buffer
- * The flip buffers aren't being used for a pty, so there's lots
- * of space available. The buffer is protected by a per-pty
- * semaphore that should almost never come under contention.
- * (2) avoid redundant copying for cases where count >> receive_room
- * N.B. Calls from user space may now return an error code instead of
- * a count.

- * WSH 05/24/97: Modified for asymmetric MASTER/SLAVE behavior
- * The chars_in_buffer() value is used by the ldisc select() function
- * to hold off writing when chars_in_buffer > WAKEUP_CHARS (== 256).
- * The pty driver chars_in_buffer() Master/Slave must behave differently:
- *
- * The Master side needs to allow typed-ahead commands to accumulate
- * while being canonicalized, so we report "our buffer" as empty until
- * some threshold is reached, and then report the count. (Any count >
- * WAKEUP_CHARS is regarded by select() as "full".) To avoid deadlock
- * the count returned must be 0 if no canonical data is available to be
- * read. (The N_TTY ldisc.chars_in_buffer now knows this.)
+/**
+ * pty_chars_in_buffer - characters currently in our tx queue
+ * @tty: our tty

- * The Slave side passes all characters in raw mode to the Master side's
- * buffer where they can be read immediately, so in this case we can
- * return the true count in the buffer.
+ * Report how much we have in the transmit queue. As everything is
+ * instantly at the other end this is easy to implement.
