Hi,
I'm working on Linux tty driver (based on tiny_tty).
How can I provide in my driver Linux cat operation (e.g.cat < ttyS3)?
call tty_insert_flip_*() from somewhere to put some data into tty recieve
buffer, which is pushed into ldisc by tty_flip_buffer_push() and then sent by
tty_read function (where ldisc read is called) to userspace for reading process.
What should I implement exactly?
open, settermios, write_room (note that this is minimal and will probably oops
when poll or write is invoked) + some isr or timer to fill the buffer mentioned
above.
regards,
