Subject: Directly accessing serial ports from drivers w/o TTYs ?
Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2017 00:43:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a159c02b-cec6-51a5-3bde-b0e8eab74055@gr13.net> (raw)

Hi folks,


is there already a way for accessing serial ports from drivers,
w/o having to go through the TTY subsystem ?

Serdev seems provide a connection between arbitrary TTYs to device
drivers. But this implies always having a TTY for each UART (even if
it's never used outside the kernel).

Is there any way for accessing uarts more directly ?
