I'm currently trying to conceive of a way to portably use the "new" (relatively) way of setting serial line bit rates via BOTHER and c_ispeed/c_ospeed from a userspace utility. (ldattach(1), to be included in the next release of util_linux_ng, in case you're interested.) I notice that most architectures have introduced new ioctls (TCGETS2 etc.) and struct termios2 for that, while some (eg. powerpc) have integrated the c_ispeed/c_ospeed fields in struct termios and supposedly get/set them via the old "non-2" ioctls. What's the rationale behind this? What is the recommended usage for a Linux userspace program wanting to use the BOTHER speed setting mechanism on a variety of architectures?
