tcflow

Standard C library (libc, -lc)

#include <termios.h>

int tcflow(int fd, int action);

tcflow() suspends transmission or reception of data on the object referred to by fd, depending on the value of action:

TCOOFF

suspends output.

TCOON

restarts suspended output.

TCIOFF

transmits a STOP character, which stops the terminal device from transmitting data to the system.

TCION

transmits a START character, which starts the terminal device transmitting data to the system.

The default on open of a terminal file is that neither its input nor its output is suspended.

0

on success.

-1

on failure and set errno to indicate the error.
