NAME
irframe
- IrDA frame level driver
SYNOPSIS
irframe* at oboe?
irframe* at uirda?
irframe* at ustir?
pseudo-device irframetty
DESCRIPTION
The
irframe
driver provides support for IrDA frame level transmission.
It does not contain the IrDA protocol stack per se, but the stack
can be built on top of the
irframe
driver.
Access to frames is via the
read(2)
and
write(2)
system calls. Each write constitutes one frame, and each read yields one frame.
The
poll(2)
system call can be used to check for availability of frames.
There are also a number of
ioctl(2)
calls to manipulate the device:
IRDA_RESET_PARAMS
-
Reset the parameters set by
IRDA_SET_PARAMS
.
IRDA_SET_PARAMS
(struct irda_params)
-
Set the speed, extra beginning of frame bytes, and maximum frame size.
IRDA_GET_SPEEDMASK
(int)
-
Get the set of allowable speeds.
IRDA_GET_TURNAROUNDMASK
(int)
-
Get the set of allowable turn around times.
