Hi! While reviewing stty, I found this in Issue 8 Draft 2.1:
107972 number Set terminal baud rate to the number given, if possible.
If the baud rate is set
107973 to zero, the modem control lines shall no longer be
asserted. This shall have
107974 the effect of setting the input and output termios baud
rate values as defined
107975 in XBD Chapter 11 (on page 183).
107976 ispeed number Set terminal input baud rate to the number given, if
possible. If the input baud
107977 rate is set to zero, the input baud rate shall be
specified by the value of the
107978 output baud rate. This shall have the effect of setting
the input termios baud
107979 rate values as defined in XBD Chapter 11 (on page 183).
107980 ispeed number Set terminal output baud rate to the number given, if
possible. If the output
107981 baud rate is set to zero, the modem control lines shall no
longer be asserted.
107982 This shall have the effect of setting the output termios
baud rate values as
107983 defined in XBD Chapter 11 (on page 183).
This is as glaring as it's non-obvious if you aren't looking for it,
but I was; consider the given:
have the effect of setting the input and output termios baud rate values
have the effect of setting the input termios baud rate values
have the effect of setting the output termios baud rate values
this is now trivially wrong, the latter two should say "value",
since both I and O speed maps to a single termios value.
Naturally, I actually found this in POSIX.2 Draft 11.2, which reads:
12166 number Set terminal baud rate to the number given, if possi-
12167 ble. If the baud rate is set to zero, the modem control
12168 lines shall no longer be asserted. This shall have the
12169 effect of setting the input and output termios baud
12170 rate values as defined in POSIX.1 {8}.
12171 ispeed number Set terminal input baud rate to the number given, if
12172 possible. If the input baud rate is set to zero, the
12173 input baud rate shall be specified by the value of the
12174 output baud rate. This shall have the effect of setting
12175 the input termios baud rate values as defined in
12176 POSIX.1 {8}.
12177 ospeed number Set terminal output baud rate to the number given, if
12178 possible. If the output baud rate is set to zero, the
12179 modem control lines shall no longer be asserted. This
12180 shall have the effect of setting the output termios
12181 baud rate values as defined in POSIX.1 {8}.
Being older than me doesn't change it being a trivial copy-paste error.
Proposed action:
Change "values" on line 107979 and 107982 to "value".
Best,
