That still doesn't solve the problem of changing struct offsets after a struct field of type struct termios. > Exporting termios2 to user space feels a bit odd at this stage as it > would only be usable as a fallback on old glibc.

If that name is not appropriate, it should be changed first in the UAPI headers. Thanks, Florian
