The core Linux code supports arbitrary baud rate setting. Although it was designed with the glibc maintainers at the time it seems they never adopted it so you have do the following Linux specific: struct termios t; iotl(tty, TCGETS2, &t); t.c_flag &= ~CBAUD; t.c_flag |= BOTHER; t.c_ispeed = input baud; t.c_ospeed = output baud; ioctl(tty, TCSETS2, &t); and it'll let you ask for any speed you want including things like midi baud rates. 76Kbit for ESP8266 devices and so on. After the calls check the c_ispeed/c_ospeed to see what you got.
