Termios not setting baud rate in LEON3

[Mohammed Saeed Khoory]

I tried setting the breakpoint, but GDB couldn't find the symbol.

I decided to step through the tcsetattr(), and I eventually reached the following lines in termios.c (lines 577, 588)

if (tty->device.setAttributes)
	(*tty->device.setAttributes)(tty->minor, &tty->termios);


tty->device.setAttributes was set to 0, so the code inside the if statement was skipped. I think this was the cause of the problem.

I forgot to mention that I'm using RTEMS 4.10.2. This may have been fixed in 4.11? 

In any case, I decided to work around this by manually setting the scaler register in the UART once again.
