mux_stop_tx(9)
πΈ mux_stop_tx(9) πΈ
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β this one's a tiny little page from the kernel world and it's honestly giving "short but iconic" π
β¨ NAME β¨
mux_stop_tx β stop transmitting characters. that's it. that's the whole job description π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void mux_stop_tx (struct uart_port *port );
literally just that one line, no cap β¨
π ARGUMENTS π
portβ a pointer to theuart_port. yep, that's the whole vibe check on this one π«Ά
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea β β the Serial MUX does not support this function. like, at all. it's not a "we'll get to it" situation, it's a "this is not a thing here" situation π so don't be surprised when there's nothing more to read. not me expecting a whole essay and getting one sentence π
π SEE ALSO π
the kernel file ./drivers/tty/serial/mux.c plus this whole friend group of functions, all in their little (9) era:
get_mux_port_count(9)mux_tx_empty(9)mux_set_mctrl(9)mux_get_mctrl(9)mux_start_tx(9)mux_stop_rx(9)mux_break_ctl(9)mux_write(9)mux_read(9)mux_startup(9)mux_shutdown(9)mux_set_termios(9)mux_type(9)mux_release_port(9)mux_request_port(9)mux_config_port(9)mux_verify_port(9)mux_poll(9)mux_probe(9)mux_init(9)mux_exit(9)
bestie heads up: this function is a no-op situation β the Serial MUX doesn't support it, so don't go looking for behaviour that isn't there π
okay that's the whole page, short and sweet, we ate and left no crumbs πβ¨ this little cutie lives over in ./drivers/tty/serial, dated October 2026, and yeah β that's the whole sign-off, mwah ππ
