If open() blocks on a serial port, then a typical reason is that modem
control is enabled for this tty (i.e. the CLOCAL flag not set, see
"man termios"), but the attached device does not assert the DSR
signal. I.e. open() waits until the device reports "I am ready".
Invoke "stty -a -F /dev/ttyS2" in order to check the settings of the
tty. Look for "clocal" (-> no modem control) versus "-clocal" (-> modem
control) in the output.
Hi Gerhard,
is there anything I could do from a progromatic point of
view to avoid such a hang ?
Presumably I don't want to alter the CLOCAL flag for a serial port that
isn't connected to an instrument. Perhaps there's a better way of
getting a list of potential instrument serial ports that doesn't
involve opening them ?
cheers,
Graeme.
