Re: [CFT:PATCH] 3/3: Disable OX950 transmitter for flow control

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Disable the transmitter whenever we want to prevent characters
being transmitted by flow control.  However, if we run out of
characters to send and want to only disable the TX interrupt,
allow that scenario.
