This driver supports Intel x86 hardware platform. In order - to maintain compatibility, this version has also been properly tested with - RedHat, Mandrake, Fedora and S.u.S.E Linux. However, if compatibility problem - occurs, please contact Moxa at support@moxa.com.tw. - - In addition to device driver, useful utilities are also provided in this - version. They are: - - - msdiag - Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa - Smartio/Industio boards. - - msmon - Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals. - - msterm A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial - ports. - - io-irq.exe - Configuration program to setup ISA boards. Please note that - this program can only be executed under DOS. - - All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under - GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General - Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail. - - In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find latest driver at http://www.moxa.com/. - - This version of driver can be installed as Loadable Module (Module driver) - or built-in into kernel (Static driver). You may refer to following - installation procedure for suitable one. Before you install the driver, - please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual. - - We assume the user should be familiar with following documents. - - - Serial-HOWTO - - Kernel-HOWTO - -2. System Requirement -^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - - - Hardware platform: Intel x86 machine - - Kernel version: 2.4.x or 2.6.x - - gcc version 2.72 or later - - Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination - -3. Installation -^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - -3.1 Hardware installation -========================= - - There are two types of buses, ISA and PCI, for Smartio/Industio - family multiport board. - -ISA board ---------- - - You'll have to configure CAP address, I/O address, Interrupt Vector - as well as IRQ before installing this driver. Please refer to hardware - installation procedure in User's Manual before proceed any further. - Please make sure the JP1 is open after the ISA board is set properly. - -PCI/UPCI board --------------- - - You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid from IRQ conflict - with other ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation - procedure in User's Manual in advance. - -PCI IRQ Sharing ---------------- - - Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to - 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed - together on one system and they can share the same IRQ. - - -3.2 Driver files -================ - - The driver file may be obtained from ftp, CD-ROM or floppy disk. The - first step, anyway, is to copy driver file "mxser.tgz" into specified - directory. e.g. /moxa. The execute commands as below:: - - # cd / - # mkdir moxa - # cd /moxa - # tar xvf /dev/fd0 - -or:: - - # cd / - # mkdir moxa - # cd /moxa - # cp /mnt/cdrom//mxser.tgz . - # tar xvfz mxser.tgz - - -3.3 Device naming convention -============================ - - You may find all the driver and utilities files in /moxa/mxser. - Following installation procedure depends on the model you'd like to - run the driver. If you prefer module driver, please refer to 3.4. - If static driver is required, please refer to 3.5. - -Dialin and callout port ------------------------ - - This driver remains traditional serial device properties. There are - two special file name for each serial port. One is dial-in port - which is named "ttyMxx". For callout port, the naming convention - is "cumxx". - -Device naming when more than 2 boards installed ------------------------------------------------ - - Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is - pre-defined as below. - - ============ =============== ============== - Board Num. Dial-in Port Callout port - 1st board ttyM0 - ttyM7 cum0 - cum7 - 2nd board ttyM8 - ttyM15 cum8 - cum15 - 3rd board ttyM16 - ttyM23 cum16 - cum23 - 4th board ttyM24 - ttym31 cum24 - cum31 - ============ =============== ============== - -.. note:: - - Under Kernel 2.6 and upper, the cum Device is Obsolete. So use ttyM* - device instead. - -Board sequence --------------- - - This driver will activate ISA boards according to the parameter set - in the driver. After all specified ISA board activated, PCI board - will be installed in the system automatically driven. - Therefore the board number is sorted by the CAP address of ISA boards. - For PCI boards, their sequence will be after ISA boards and C168H/PCI - has higher priority than C104H/PCI boards. - -3.4 Module driver configuration -=============================== - - Module driver is easiest way to install. If you prefer static driver - installation, please skip this paragraph. - - - ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver -------------------- - -3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number -------------------------------------------------- - - Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices - which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell - script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure. - This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still - need to do this procedure when: - - a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7" - section. - b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you - add/delete one MOXA board. - c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the - shell script "msmknod" - - The procedure is:: - - # cd /moxa/mxser/driver - # ./msmknod - - This shell script will require the major number for dial-in - device and callout device to create tty device. You also need - to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major - numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If - you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7" - for more detailed procedure. - Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device - naming. - -3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities ------------------------------------------ - - Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the - all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once. - But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source - code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see - "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again. - - Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run - - # make clean; make install - - ..note:: - - For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core1: - # make clean; make installsp1 - - For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4: - # make clean; make installsp2 - - The driver files "mxser.o" and utilities will be properly compiled - and copied to system directories respectively. - -------------- Load MOXA driver-------------------- - -3.4.3 Load the MOXA driver --------------------------- - - :: - - # modprobe mxser - - will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check - if "mxser" is activated. If the MOXA board is ISA board, the - is needed. Please refer to section "3.4.5" for more - information. - -------------- Load MOXA driver on boot -------------------- - -3.4.4 Load the mxser driver ---------------------------- - - - For the above description, you may manually execute - "modprobe mxser" to activate this driver and run - "rmmod mxser" to remove it. - - However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to - eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be - achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify - the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver". - - But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command - to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the - rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser" - manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error - encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is - completed, follow the below step. - - Run following command for setting rc files:: - - # cd /moxa/mxser/driver - # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d - # cd /etc/rc.d - - Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist, - create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission. - - Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line. - - Reboot and check if moxa.o activated by "lsmod" command. - -3.4.5. specify CAP address --------------------------- - - If you'd like to drive Smartio/Industio ISA boards in the system, - you'll have to add parameter to specify CAP address of given - board while activating "mxser.o". The format for parameters are - as follows.:: - - modprobe mxser ioaddr=0x???,0x???,0x???,0x??? - | | | | - | | | +- 4th ISA board - | | +------ 3rd ISA board - | +------------ 2nd ISA board - +-------------------1st ISA board - -3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x -================================================================ - - Note: - To use static driver, you must install the linux kernel - source package. - -3.5.1 Backup the built-in driver in the kernel ----------------------------------------------- - - :: - - # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char - # mv mxser.c mxser.c.old - - For Red Hat 7.x user, you need to create link: - # cd /usr/src - # ln -s linux-2.4 linux - -3.5.2 Create link ------------------ - :: - - # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char - # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c mxser.c - -3.5.3 Add CAP address list for ISA boards. ------------------------------------------- - - For PCI boards user, please skip this step. - - In module mode, the CAP address for ISA board is given by - parameter. In static driver configuration, you'll have to - assign it within driver's source code. If you will not - install any ISA boards, you may skip to next portion. - The instructions to modify driver source code are as - below. - - a. run:: - - # cd /moxa/mxser/driver - # vi mxser.c - - b. Find the array mxserBoardCAP[] as below:: - - static int mxserBoardCAP[] = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00}; - - c. Change the address within this array using vi. For - example, to driver 2 ISA boards with CAP address - 0x280 and 0x180 as 1st and 2nd board. Just to change - the source code as follows:: - - static int mxserBoardCAP[] = {0x280, 0x180, 0x00, 0x00}; - -3.5.4 Setup kernel configuration --------------------------------- - - Configure the kernel:: - - # cd /usr/src/linux - # make menuconfig - - You will go into a menu-driven system. Please select [Character - devices][Non-standard serial port support], enable the [Moxa - SmartIO support] driver with "[*]" for built-in (not "[M]"), then - select [Exit] to exit this program. - -3.5.5 Rebuild kernel --------------------- - - The following are for Linux kernel rebuilding, for your - reference only. - - For appropriate details, please refer to the Linux document: - - a. Run the following commands:: - - cd /usr/src/linux - make clean # take a few minutes - make dep # take a few minutes - make bzImage # take probably 10-20 minutes - make install # copy boot image to correct position - - f. Please make sure the boot kernel (vmlinuz) is in the - correct position. - g. If you use 'lilo' utility, you should check /etc/lilo.conf - 'image' item specified the path which is the 'vmlinuz' path, - or you will load wrong (or old) boot kernel image (vmlinuz). - After checking /etc/lilo.conf, please run "lilo". - - Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you have to - go back to Linux configuration Setup. Type "make menuconfig" in - directory /usr/src/linux. - - -3.5.6 Make tty device and special file --------------------------------------- - - :: - # cd /moxa/mxser/driver - # ./msmknod - -3.5.7 Make utility ------------------- - - :: - - # cd /moxa/mxser/utility - # make clean; make install - -3.5.8 Reboot ------------- - - - -3.6 Custom configuration -======================== - - Although this driver already provides you default configuration, you - still can change the device name and major number. The instruction to - change these parameters are shown as below. - -a. Change Device name - - If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming - convention, all you have to do is to modify the internal code - within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open "msmknod" - by vi. Locate each line contains "ttyM" and "cum" and change them - to the device name you desired. "msmknod" creates the device names - you need next time executed. - -b. Change Major number - - If major number 30 and 35 had been occupied, you may have to select - 2 free major numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps to change - major numbers. - -3.6.1 Find free major numbers ------------------------------ - - In /proc/devices, you may find all the major numbers occupied - in the system. Please select 2 major numbers that are available. - e.g. 40, 45. - -3.6.2 Create special files --------------------------- - - Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with - specified major numbers. - -3.6.3 Modify driver with new major number ------------------------------------------ - - Run vi to open /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c. Locate the line - contains "MXSERMAJOR". Change the content as below:: - - #define MXSERMAJOR 40 - #define MXSERCUMAJOR 45 - - 3.6.4 Run "make clean; make install" in /moxa/mxser/driver. - -3.7 Verify driver installation -============================== - - You may refer to /var/log/messages to check the latest status - log reported by this driver whenever it's activated. - -4. Utilities -^^^^^^^^^^^^ - - There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and - msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should - be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin. - - Before using these utilities, please load driver (refer 3.4 & 3.5) and - make sure you had run the "msmknod" utility. - -msdiag - Diagnostic -=================== - - This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio - board found by driver in the system. - -msmon - Port Monitoring -======================= - - This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports' - activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted - (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started. - - Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g. - the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring - is started). You can reset all ports' count by key. <+> <-> - (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press - on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication - parameters, signal status, and input/output queue. - -msterm - Terminal Emulation -=========================== - - This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports, - especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple - application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the - port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a - dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation. - -5. Setserial -^^^^^^^^^^^^ - - Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below. - - ============== ========================================================= - uart set UART type(16450-->disable FIFO, 16550A-->enable FIFO) - close_delay set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that DTR - should be kept low while being closed. - closing_wait set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that the - serial port should wait for data to be drained while - being closed, before the receiver is disable. - spd_hi Use 57.6kb when the application requests 38.4kb. - spd_vhi Use 115.2kb when the application requests 38.4kb. - spd_shi Use 230.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. - spd_warp Use 460.8kb when the application requests 38.4kb. - spd_normal Use 38.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. - spd_cust Use the custom divisor to set the speed when the - application requests 38.4kb. - divisor This option set the custom division. - baud_base This option set the base baud rate. - ============== ========================================================= - -6.

These boards provide, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 -high-speed serial ports or modems. This driver supports up to a combination -of four RocketPort or RocketModems boards in one machine simultaneously. -This file assumes that you are using the RocketPort driver which is -integrated into the kernel sources. - -The driver can also be installed as an external module using the usual -"make;make install" routine. This external module driver, obtainable -from the Comtrol website listed below, is useful for updating the driver -or installing it into kernels which do not have the driver configured -into them. Installations instructions for the external module -are in the included README and HW_INSTALL files. - -RocketPort ISA and RocketModem II PCI boards currently are only supported by -this driver in module form. - -The RocketPort ISA board requires I/O ports to be configured by the DIP -switches on the board. See the section "ISA Rocketport Boards" below for -information on how to set the DIP switches. - -You pass the I/O port to the driver using the following module parameters: - -board1: - I/O port for the first ISA board -board2: - I/O port for the second ISA board -board3: - I/O port for the third ISA board -board4: - I/O port for the fourth ISA board - -There is a set of utilities and scripts provided with the external driver -(downloadable from http://www.comtrol.com) that ease the configuration and -setup of the ISA cards. - -The RocketModem II PCI boards require firmware to be loaded into the card -before it will function. The driver has only been tested as a module for this -board. - -Installation Procedures ------------------------ - -RocketPort/RocketModem PCI cards require no driver configuration, they are -automatically detected and configured. - -The RocketPort driver can be installed as a module (recommended) or built -into the kernel. This is selected, as for other drivers, through the `make config` -command from the root of the Linux source tree during the kernel build process. - -The RocketPort/RocketModem serial ports installed by this driver are assigned -device major number 46, and will be named /dev/ttyRx, where x is the port number -starting at zero (ex. /dev/ttyR0, /devttyR1, ...). If you have multiple cards -installed in the system, the mapping of port names to serial ports is displayed -in the system log at /var/log/messages. - -If installed as a module, the module must be loaded. This can be done -manually by entering "modprobe rocket".

The DIP switch settings for the I/O address must be -set to the value of the first Rocketport cards. - -In order to distinguish each of the card from the others, each card -must have a unique board ID set on the dip switches. The first -Rocketport board must be set with the DIP switches corresponding to -the first board, the second board must be set with the DIP switches -corresponding to the second board, etc. IMPORTANT: The board ID is -the only place where the DIP switch settings should differ between the -various Rocketport boards in a system. - -The I/O address range used by any of the RocketPort cards must not -conflict with any other cards in the system, including other -RocketPort cards. Below, you will find a list of commonly used I/O -address ranges which may be in use by other devices in your system. -On a Linux system, "cat /proc/ioports" will also be helpful in -identifying what I/O addresses are being used by devices on your -system. - -Remember, the FIRST RocketPort uses 68 I/O addresses. So, if you set it -for 0x100, it will occupy 0x100 to 0x143.

In effect it -counts the number of threads of execution within an ldisc method (plus those -about to enter and exit although this detail matters not). - -Line Discipline Methods ------------------------ - -TTY side interfaces -^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - -======================= ======================================================= -open() Called when the line discipline is attached to - the terminal. No other call into the line - discipline for this tty will occur until it - completes successfully. Should initialize any - state needed by the ldisc, and set receive_room - in the tty_struct to the maximum amount of data - the line discipline is willing to accept from the - driver with a single call to receive_buf(). - Returning an error will prevent the ldisc from - being attached. Can sleep. - -close() This is called on a terminal when the line - discipline is being unplugged. At the point of - execution no further users will enter the - ldisc code for this tty. Can sleep. - -hangup() Called when the tty line is hung up. - The line discipline should cease I/O to the tty. - No further calls into the ldisc code will occur. - The return value is ignored. Can sleep. - -read() (optional) A process requests reading data from - the line. Multiple read calls may occur in parallel - and the ldisc must deal with serialization issues. - If not defined, the process will receive an EIO - error. May sleep. - -write() (optional) A process requests writing data to the - line. Multiple write calls are serialized by the - tty layer for the ldisc. If not defined, the - process will receive an EIO error. May sleep. - -flush_buffer() (optional) May be called at any point between - open and close, and instructs the line discipline - to empty its input buffer. - -set_termios() (optional) Called on termios structure changes. - The caller passes the old termios data and the - current data is in the tty. Called under the - termios semaphore so allowed to sleep. Serialized - against itself only. - -poll() (optional) Check the status for the poll/select - calls. Multiple poll calls may occur in parallel. - May sleep. - -ioctl() (optional) Called when an ioctl is handed to the - tty layer that might be for the ldisc. Multiple - ioctl calls may occur in parallel. May sleep. - -compat_ioctl() (optional) Called when a 32 bit ioctl is handed - to the tty layer that might be for the ldisc. - Multiple ioctl calls may occur in parallel. - May sleep. -======================= ======================================================= - -Driver Side Interfaces -^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - -======================= ======================================================= -receive_buf() (optional) Called by the low-level driver to hand - a buffer of received bytes to the ldisc for - processing. The number of bytes is guaranteed not - to exceed the current value of tty->receive_room. - All bytes must be processed. - -receive_buf2() (optional) Called by the low-level driver to hand - a buffer of received bytes to the ldisc for - processing. Returns the number of bytes processed. - - If both receive_buf() and receive_buf2() are - defined, receive_buf2() should be preferred. - -write_wakeup() May be called at any point between open and close. - The TTY_DO_WRITE_WAKEUP flag indicates if a call - is needed but always races versus calls. Thus the - ldisc must be careful about setting order and to - handle unexpected calls. Must not sleep. - - The driver is forbidden from calling this directly - from the ->write call from the ldisc as the ldisc - is permitted to call the driver write method from - this function. In such a situation defer it. - -dcd_change() Report to the tty line the current DCD pin status - changes and the relative timestamp. The timestamp - cannot be NULL. -======================= ======================================================= - - -Driver Access -^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - -Line discipline methods can call the following methods of the underlying -hardware driver through the function pointers within the tty->driver -structure: - -======================= ======================================================= -write() Write a block of characters to the tty device. - Returns the number of characters accepted. The - character buffer passed to this method is already - in kernel space. - -put_char() Queues a character for writing to the tty device. - If there is no room in the queue, the character is - ignored. - -flush_chars() (Optional) If defined, must be called after - queueing characters with put_char() in order to - start transmission. - -write_room() Returns the numbers of characters the tty driver - will accept for queueing to be written. - -ioctl() Invoke device specific ioctl. - Expects data pointers to refer to userspace. - Returns ENOIOCTLCMD for unrecognized ioctl numbers. - -set_termios() Notify the tty driver that the device's termios - settings have changed. New settings are in - tty->termios. Previous settings should be passed in - the "old" argument. - - The API is defined such that the driver should return - the actual modes selected. This means that the - driver function is responsible for modifying any - bits in the request it cannot fulfill to indicate - the actual modes being used. A device with no - hardware capability for change (e.g. a USB dongle or - virtual port) can provide NULL for this method. - -throttle() Notify the tty driver that input buffers for the - line discipline are close to full, and it should - somehow signal that no more characters should be - sent to the tty. - -unthrottle() Notify the tty driver that characters can now be - sent to the tty without fear of overrunning the - input buffers of the line disciplines. - -stop() Ask the tty driver to stop outputting characters - to the tty device. - -start() Ask the tty driver to resume sending characters - to the tty device. - -hangup() Ask the tty driver to hang up the tty device. - -break_ctl() (Optional) Ask the tty driver to turn on or off - BREAK status on the RS-232 port. If state is -1, - then the BREAK status should be turned on; if - state is 0, then BREAK should be turned off. - If this routine is not implemented, use ioctls - TIOCSBRK / TIOCCBRK instead. - -wait_until_sent() Waits until the device has written out all of the - characters in its transmitter FIFO. - -send_xchar() Send a high-priority XON/XOFF character to the device. -======================= ======================================================= - - -Flags -^^^^^ - -Line discipline methods have access to tty->flags field containing the -following interesting flags: - -======================= ======================================================= -TTY_THROTTLED Driver input is throttled. The ldisc should call - tty->driver->unthrottle() in order to resume - reception when it is ready to process more data. - -TTY_DO_WRITE_WAKEUP If set, causes the driver to call the ldisc's - write_wakeup() method in order to resume - transmission when it can accept more data - to transmit. - -TTY_IO_ERROR If set, causes all subsequent userspace read/write - calls on the tty to fail, returning -EIO. - -TTY_OTHER_CLOSED Device is a pty and the other side has closed. - -TTY_NO_WRITE_SPLIT Prevent driver from splitting up writes into - smaller chunks. -======================= ======================================================= - - -Locking -^^^^^^^ - -Callers to the line discipline functions from the tty layer are required to -take line discipline locks. The same is true of calls from the driver side -but not yet enforced. - -Three calls are now provided:: - - ldisc = tty_ldisc_ref(tty); - -takes a handle to the line discipline in the tty and returns it. If no ldisc -is currently attached or the ldisc is being closed and re-opened at this -point then NULL is returned. While this handle is held the ldisc will not -change or go away:: - - tty_ldisc_deref(ldisc) - -Returns the ldisc reference and allows the ldisc to be closed. Returning the -reference takes away your right to call the ldisc functions until you take -a new reference:: - - ldisc = tty_ldisc_ref_wait(tty); - -Performs the same function as tty_ldisc_ref except that it will wait for an -ldisc change to complete and then return a reference to the new ldisc. - -While these functions are slightly slower than the old code they should have -minimal impact as most receive logic uses the flip buffers and they only -need to take a reference when they push bits up through the driver. - -A caution: The ldisc->open(), ldisc->close() and driver->set_ldisc -functions are called with the ldisc unavailable. Thus tty_ldisc_ref will -fail in this situation if used within these functions. Ldisc and driver -code calling its own functions must be careful in this case. - - -Driver Interface ----------------- - -======================= ======================================================= -open() Called when a device is opened. May sleep - -close() Called when a device is closed. At the point of - return from this call the driver must make no - further ldisc calls of any kind. May sleep - -write() Called to write bytes to the device. May not - sleep. May occur in parallel in special cases. - Because this includes panic paths drivers generally - shouldn't try and do clever locking here. - -put_char() Stuff a single character onto the queue. The - driver is guaranteed following up calls to - flush_chars. - -flush_chars() Ask the kernel to write put_char queue - -write_room() Return the number of characters that can be stuffed - into the port buffers without overflow (or less). - The ldisc is responsible for being intelligent - about multi-threading of write_room/write calls - -ioctl() Called when an ioctl may be for the driver - -set_termios() Called on termios change, serialized against - itself by a semaphore. May sleep. - -set_ldisc() Notifier for discipline change. At the point this - is done the discipline is not yet usable. Can now - sleep (I think) - -throttle() Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to do flow - control. Serialization including with unthrottle - is the job of the ldisc layer. - -unthrottle() Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to stop flow - control. - -stop() Ldisc notifier to the driver to stop output. As with - throttle the serializations with start() are down - to the ldisc layer. - -start() Ldisc notifier to the driver to start output. - -hangup() Ask the tty driver to cause a hangup initiated - from the host side. [Can sleep ??] - -break_ctl() Send RS232 break. Can sleep. Can get called in - parallel, driver must serialize (for now), and - with write calls. - -wait_until_sent() Wait for characters to exit the hardware queue - of the driver. Can sleep - -send_xchar() Send XON/XOFF and if possible jump the queue with - it in order to get fast flow control responses. - Cannot sleep ?? -======================= ======================================================= -- cgit v1.2.3
