>From e7f1242ca1d8d6a17c87a85091cc977d2040ef15 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Slaby Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2013 12:06:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] pty: return EINVAL for TIOCGPTN for BSD ptys Commit bbb63c514a3464342967237a51a21ea8f61ab951 (drivers:tty:fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handling) changed the default return value from tty ioctl to be ENOTTY and not EINVAL. This is appropriate. But in case of TIOCGPTN for the old BSD ptys glibc started failing because it expects EINVAL to be returned. Only then it continues to obtain the pts name the other way around. So fix this case by explicit return of EINVAL in this case.
