RE: [PATCH/RFC] 8250: Auto RS485 direction control

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

 



About the flags names -- CARTS, UART_FCTR_RS485

May I suggest CRTSTOGGLE since it is known by that kind of name in other
OS's :-)

And further, it says was RTS will do, instead of why. Maybe someone could
use it for something other than RS485 ?
