Does this mean the userspace program would have to continually poll
for the TTY line status?

Instead, I'd like the userspace program to listen (select) on a socket
and receive some sort of notification when the TTY is ready for I/O.

Or, maybe the userspace program can receive some sort of interrupt
from the TTY device when it is ready for I/O.

Perhaps there is another way to avoid continued polling?

Cheers,
Daniel
