Hi Jiri and Michael,

Per the understanding of the ioctl behavior here, does that mean the uart ops break_ctl(port,ctl) also perform the same behavior with ioctl_tty?
break_ctl(port,-1) will turn the break on, which may keep TX line low until we call break_ctl(port,0) to turn break off, which may raise the TX line, right?

If this is the correct understanding of break_ctl(port,ctl), then I will drop this patch, since my patch here cause the TX line only send one break signal(9 to 13 bits, or 12 to 15 bits if STAT[BRK13] is set). Thanks!
