site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com It should be available on any 10.4.x system. #include <IOKit/serial/ioss.h> The ioctl is IOSSIOSPEED. It takes a single speed_t argument.

I notice that the highest speed termios.h defines is B230400. I have a serial device that supports higher speeds such as 921600. Is it not present in termios.h because it is unsupported? tcsetattr() returns success after setting the speed to 921600. Do the supported speeds depend exclusively on the serial hardware (USB-serial adapter these days)? Or does the OS have influence on which speeds are allowed? I ask all this because my device works at many speeds, except the highest speed it supposedly supports. I'm trying to figure out if this is the device's fault, the OS's, or the USB-Serial Adapter's.

User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/11.2.4.060510 You might want to look at the SerialFamily.kext source. There is a table in there of supported speeds. You might have to hack it to support your speed if it's not in there. Of course you'd need to update this whereever you deployed your hardware. -- Chris D.

Darwin-dev mailing list (Darwin-dev(a)lists.apple.com) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/darwin-dev/site_archiver%40lists.app… I have been looking at two projects which make use of the Tun-Tap drivers available for Darwin/MacOS X. The two projects being Miredo and Hamachi. Being that Tun-Tap seems like such a fundamental service, would this be the sort of thing that we would want to see made available as part of the base installation?
