Problems with fakeserial

Hi,

I'm trying to use the virtual-ieee802154-serial code but when I use izattach I get the following error msg:

root@10:/etc/init.d# izattach /dev/fakeserial0
ioctl: TIOCSETD: Invalid argument

I've tried ensuring the baud rates match and still get the same error.

I'm using the following git repos for the userspace tools, is this still correct?

Hi Martin,

first, the serial things came never into mainline. I like the idea to abstract a serial protocol above the 802.15.4 layer which run as firmware on several devices. But the serial driver never came into mainline.

Do you ported and loaded the serial driver module? I also need to say that I never tested the serial driver or virtual-ieee802154-serial stuff. Maybe simple original author Tony Cheneau [0]. Maybe he has time to help here a little bit.

Yes, sad but should be correct.

Hi Alex,

Do you know where I can find the serial driver module?

- Martin.

Hi Martin,

yes, the last known version for me is this what Tony Chenau did. [0]

If the rework is finish, we should think about a serial protocol specification and a mainlineable driver.

And now the funny part:
Then I would write a contiki app which allow to talk this protocol, then you use contiki as firmware. Then you would use contiki for that you don't using contiki 802.15.4/6LoWPAN stack anymore. :D

and please don't forget the fix for error handling at lowpan_rcv. When do you want to send a new patch version for that?

Hi Alex,

Just testing the new changes now :)
