I have made a large number of changes to get the serial ports to act closer
to unix tty driver.
I have added a non-blocking/blocking mode (need to have vmin, vtime)
I have also added the code to handle vmin, vtime and nonblocking all
work just like unix tty driver. (the current version did not handle
things right on read) I still have to look at the write side of things.
I have also modify the console driver to build a fifo to handle expanding
character seq. This stop the buffer overflow type problems with trying
to push ascii seq up/down arrows.
I have also added FIONBIO to the console driver.
I have change the console color code to do a better (correct) YELLOW and WHITE.
I still want to add nonblock fcntl to the reset of the devices. (most should
be able to handle nonblocking I/O)
I would be will to post or place it on an ftp site but I do not have
the bandwith to allow anonymous ftp here.
I would like to find a few user to do alpha level testing on the changes.
I can mail the changes to testers or ftp to a common place.
