This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

staging: speakup_soft: Fix alternate speech with other synths

to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

From: Samuel Thibault samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2019 23:06:57 +0100 Subject: staging: speakup_soft: Fix alternate speech with other synths

When switching from speakup_soft to another synth, speakup_soft would keep calling synth_buffer_getc() from softsynthx_read.

Let's thus make synth.c export the knowledge of the current synth, so that speakup_soft can determine whether it should be running.

speakup_soft also needs to set itself alive, otherwise the switch would let it remain silent.
