== NAME
ldattach - attach a line discipline to a serial line
== SYNOPSIS
*ldattach* [*-1278denoVh*] [*-i* _iflag_] [*-s* _speed_] _ldisc device_
== DESCRIPTION
The *ldattach* daemon opens the specified _device_ file (which should refer to a serial device) and attaches the line discipline _ldisc_ to it for processing of the sent and/or received data. It then goes into the background keeping the device open so that the line discipline stays loaded.
The line discipline _ldisc_ may be specified either by name or by number.
In order to detach the line discipline, *kill*(1) the *ldattach* process.
With no arguments, *ldattach* prints usage information.
== LINE DISCIPLINES
Depending on the kernel release, the following line disciplines are supported:
*TTY*(*0*)::
The default line discipline, providing transparent operation (raw mode) as well as the habitual terminal line editing capabilities (cooked mode).
*SLIP*(*1*)::
Serial Line IP (SLIP) protocol processor for transmitting TCP/IP packets over serial lines.
*MOUSE*(*2*)::
Device driver for RS232 connected pointing devices (serial mice).
*PPP*(*3*)::
Point to Point Protocol (PPP) processor for transmitting network packets over serial lines.
*STRIP*(*4*); *AX25*(*5*); *X25*(*6*)::
Line driver for transmitting X.25 packets over asynchronous serial lines.
*6PACK*(*7*); *R3964*(*9*)::
Driver for Simatic R3964 module.
*IRDA*(*11*)::
Linux IrDa (infrared data transmission) driver - see http://irda.sourceforge.net/
*HDLC*(*13*)::
Synchronous HDLC driver.
*SYNC_PPP*(*14*)::
Synchronous PPP driver.
*HCI*(*15*)::
Bluetooth HCI UART driver.
*GIGASET_M101*(*16*)::
Driver for Siemens Gigaset M101 serial DECT adapter.
*PPS*(*18*)::
Driver for serial line Pulse Per Second (PPS) source.
*GSM0710*(*21*)::
Driver for GSM 07.10 multiplexing protocol modem (CMUX).
== OPTIONS
*-1*, *--onestopbit*::
Set the number of stop bits of the serial line to one.
*-2*, *--twostopbits*::
Set the number of stop bits of the serial line to two.
*-7*, *--sevenbits*::
Set the character size of the serial line to 7 bits.
*-8*, *--eightbits*::
Set the character size of the serial line to 8 bits.
*-d*, *--debug*::
Keep *ldattach* in the foreground so that it can be interrupted or debugged, and to print verbose messages about its progress to standard error output.
*-e*, *--evenparity*::
Set the parity of the serial line to even.
*-i*, *--iflag* [*-*]_value_...::
Set the specified bits in the c_iflag word of the serial line. The given _value_ may be a number or a symbolic name. If _value_ is prefixed by a minus sign, the specified bits are cleared instead. Several comma-separated values may be given in order to set and clear multiple bits.
*-n*, *--noparity*::
Set the parity of the serial line to none.
*-o*, *--oddparity*::
Set the parity of the serial line to odd.
*-s*, *--speed* _value_::
Set the speed (the baud rate) of the serial line to the specified _value_.
*-c*, *--intro-command* _string_::
Define an intro command that is sent through the serial line before the invocation of ldattach. E.g. in conjunction with line discipline GSM0710, the command 'AT+CMUX=0\r' is commonly suitable to switch the modem into the CMUX mode.
*-p*, *--pause* _value_::
Sleep for _value_ seconds before the invocation of ldattach. Default is one second.
*-V*, *--version*::
Display version information and exit.
*-h*, *--help*::
Display help text and exit.
