The other option would be to detect qemu as a buggy uart, log a warning and ignore the test on it. I think polling might be better, and that would probably fix hang cases on real buggy uarts where right now we sometimes keel over. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
