This patch adds "tty-index" field to /proc/PID/fdinfo/N if N specifies /dev/ptmx. The field shows the index of associative slave pts. Though a minor number is given for each pts instance, ptmx is not. It means there is no way in user-space to know the association between file descriptors for pts/n and ptmx. (n = 0, 1, ...) This is different from pipe. About pipe such association can be solved by inode of pipefs. Providing the way to know the association between pts/n and ptmx helps users understand the status of running system. lsof can utilize this field.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
