Re: [Sdio-linux-devel] Using cat pharos GPS data

The GPS interface is a rather inefficient continuous stream of cmd52's=20
over the bus. On slow machine it may not keep up. You could turn on some=20
of the debug messages in the GPS driver and see what is coming in off=20
the device.

Hi,

    I use cat /dev/ttyxx to check if there's data from pharos GPS. It=20
did output some text data such
$GP.... 0,50.0,50.0*05=20
But why the "cat" doesn't quit?  It just hanged there unless I type=20
"Ctrl+C" to quit.=20
Is it correct?=20
=20
<ps> I checked some message and found while upper application uses=20
gps_start_tx() and it did use CMD 52 to write pharos UART IER register.=20
After that, it is hanged.=20
=20
BR,=20
