.Nm zstty
.Nd Zilog 8530 (ZSCC) Serial Communications Controller
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "zs0    at hpc0"
.Cd "zs1    at hpc0"
.Cd "zskbd* at zs1 channel 0  " Pq "Indigo"
.Cd "zsms*  at zs1 channel 1  " Pq "Indigo"
.Cd "zstty* at zs0 channel ?"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides TTY support for Zilog 8530 Dual UART chips.
On Indigo systems, one of the interfaces is hardwired for use by the
keyboard and mouse.
The
.Nm zskbd
devices connect keyboard devices to the generic keyboard driver
.Nm wskbd .
The
.Nm zsms
devices connect mice to the generic mouse driver
.Xr wsmouse 4 .
The remaining additional
.Nm zstty
interfaces provide RS-423
and RS-232 serial ports for general purpose use.
.Pp
The
.Nm
driver supports all of the standard
.Xr tty 4
ioctl calls.
The status of the DTR, RTS, CTS, and DCD signals can be queried with
TIOCMGET command, but, due to limitations in the hardware,
only the DTR and RTS signals can be modified with TIOCMSET, TIOCMBIC,
and TIOCMBIS
.Xr ioctl 2
commands.
.Pp
Input and output for each line may set to any baud rate in the
range 50 to 38400 (and higher on some machines).
.Pp
On some systems, the hardware design causes the state of the CTS, DCD, DTR
and RTS lines to be inverted.
While the
.Nm zstty
driver attempts to correctly account for this quirk,
it can be forced to reverse its logic by setting
.Ar flags
to
.Ar 1
(either via
.Xr config 8
or
.Xr boot_config 8 ) .
Misconfiguration of these line settings usually leads to
.Xr getty 8
processes being unable to open the device or sleeping on
.Sq Dv ttyopn .

.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
.Bl -tag -width indent
.It zs0*: fifo overflow
.br
The on-chip
.Dq FIFO
has overflowed and incoming data has been lost.
This generally means the machine is not responding to
interrupts from the ZS chip fast enough, which can be
remedied only by using a lower baud rate.
.It zs0*: ring overflow
.br
The software input
.Qq ring
has overflowed.
This usually means input flow-control is not configured correctly
.Pq i.e. incorrect cable wiring .
