[PATCH v2] termios.3: SPARC architecture has 4 different Bnnn constants

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



SPARC is special, it does not have Bnnn constants for baud rates above
2000000. Instead it defines 4 Bnnn constants with smaller baud rates.

This difference between SPARC and non-SPARC architectures is present in
both glibc API (termios.h) and also kernel ioctl API (asm/termbits.h).
