cfgetospeed(3C) cfgetospeed(3C)
NAME
cfgetospeed, cfsetospeed, cfgetispeed, cfsetispeed - Get or
set input or output baud rate values in termios structure
SYNOPSIS
#include <termios.h>
speed_t cfgetospeed (termios_p)
struct termios *termios_p;
int cfsetospeed (termios_p, speed)
struct termios *termios_p;
speed_t speed;
speed_t cfgetispeed (termios_p)
struct termios *termios_p;
speed_t cfsetispeed (termios_p, speed)
struct termios *termios_p;
speed_t speed;
DESCRIPTION
The cfgetospeed(), cfsetospeed(), cfgetispeed(), and
cfsetispeed() functions are defined in the POSIX 1003.1
standard and used in the 88open OCS and BCS standards.
CX/UX applications which are not POSIX/OCS/BCS compliant can
use these functions.
The argument termios_p points to a termios structure defined
within the user program and the argument speed refers to one
of the baud rate values (B1200, B9600, etc.) defined in the
header file <termios.h>. The type speed_t and the termios
structure are also defined in <termios.h>. The effects on
the terminal device as a result of one of these functions do
not become effective until the tcsetattr function is suc-
cessfully called passing the modified termios structure to
the system.
Cfgetospeed returns the output baud rate stored in the ter-
mios structure pointed to by termios_p.
Cfsetospeed sets the output baud rate stored in the termios
structure pointed to by termios_p to speed . A connection
may be terminated by assigning B0, the zero baud rate, to
speed. In this case, the modem control lines shall no longer
be asserted thus effectively disconnecting the line.
Cfgetispeed returns the input baud rate stored in the ter-
mios structure pointed to by termios_p.
Cfsetispeed sets the input baud rate stored in the termios
structure pointed to by termios_p to speed. If the input

baud rate is set to B0, the input baud rate will be speci-
fied by the value of the output baud rate.
NOTE
CX/UX does not support separate line speeds for terminal
devices. As a result, all references to input speeds actu-
ally refer to output speeds. Therefore, the input rate
should be specified by the same value as the output rate
when using cfsetispeed. It is best to use cfsetispeed with
speed set to B0 allowing the input rate to be automatically
specified by the value of the output baud rate. This
assumes that cfsetospeed has been previously called. If
both input and output baud rates do not match, the tcsetattr
function call will fail with errno set to [EINVAL].

DIAGNOSTICS
Cfsetispeed and cfsetospeed will return one of the following
values: 0 indicating that the call succeeded or -1 if speed
does not match one of the baud rate values specified in
<termios.h>. Errno will not be set. Cfgetispeed and
cfgetospeed do not return any diagnostics.
