NAME

irframetty - IrDA frame over serial line driver

SYNOPSIS

pseudo-device irframetty

DESCRIPTION

The irframetty driver provides a tty(4) line discipline to send and receive IrDA frames over a serial line via an IrDA dongle.

Access to the frames is via the irframe(4) driver.

Different dongles require different handling. The connected dongle type can be set with ioctl(2) calls:

IRFRAMETTY_SET_DONGLE (int)
Set the dongle type. See the include file for possible dongles.

IRFRAMETTY_GET_DONGLE (int)
Get the dongle type.

IRFRAMETTY_GET_DEVICE (int)
Get the number of the irframe(4) device that must be used to access the frames.
