DZ(4) | Kernel Interfaces Manual (EMIPS) | DZ(4) |
Normal I/O control parameters for individual lines are managed by ioctl(2) calls. Line speeds may be initiated via the ttys(5) file, stty(1) or ifconfig(8) to name a few, see tty(4).
The dz driver monitors the rate of input on each board, and switches between the use of character-at-a-time interrupts and input silos. While the silo is enabled during periods of high-speed input, the driver polls for input 30 times per second.
