Yes, use the "proper" serial driver. /dev/ttydiag is intended for
diagnostic output and is very simple. It does not support the various
flags needed to disable echos etc. 

Enabling CYGPKG_IO_SERIAL_DEVICES will cause the interrupt driver
serial driver to be built. This then provides /dev/ser?. You will want
to layer on top of that the tty driver. So enable
CYGPKG_IO_SERIAL_TTY_TTY0 and set CYGDAT_IO_SERIAL_TTY_CONSOLE to
/dev/tty0. You can then use the yg_io_set_config() calls as described
at
http://ecos.sourceware.org/docs-latest/ref/io-serial-driver-details.html.
If you want to use termio you need to add the termio driver to the
stack in the same way.
