SubjectRe: serial console _after_ boot ? - was: Redirect kernel console
> This errno is so out of place.
yes, that was stupid.

anyway:

# strace ./mytiocons
--snipp--
open("/dev/ttyS0", O_RDWR) = 3
ioctl(0, TIOCCONS) = -1 EBUSY (Device or resource busy)
ioctl(3, TIOCCONS) = -1 EBUSY (Device or resource busy)
--snipp--

man tty_ioctl is telling:

Redirecting console output

TIOCCONS void
Redirect output that would have gone to
/dev/console or /dev/tty0 to the given tty. If that was a pty master, send it to the slave. Anybody can do this as long as the output was not redirected yet. If it was redirected already EBUSY is returned, but root may stop redirection by using this ioctl with fd pointing at /dev/console or /dev/tty0.



but it doesn`t seem to make any difference if i do that ioctl on /dev/console or /dev/tty0 , because i`m getting EBUSY there, too
