Hi,

Using the Linux v3.9 tag, I note that

./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/net/slip/slip.c
net...@vger.kernel.org (open list:NETWORKING DRIVERS)
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)

There seems to be no maintainer for drivers/net/slip/slip.c, is that true ?

I am asking because sl_encaps() and slip_write_wakeup() do not handle error codes from tty->ops->write() and a recursive stack overflow crash can occur if the tty->ops->write() fails to write all the characters. I have some patches to fix this but would like some feedback on an appropriate solution.

SLIP changes would likely go through David Miller <da...@davemloft.net>.
TTY changes would go through Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@linuxfoundation.org>
I have already sent an E-mail to David Miller and the netdev mailing list but so far got not reply from David.

So I guess I have sent my patches to the correct place ;)

Thanks,

Regards,
Dean Jenkins
