close or change dynamicly the stdout in arria 10

[Bar]

Hello.

I want to block printf to my stdout driver which point to JTAG_UART set in the BSP editor. I try several options

 int file_dsc;
file_dsc = open("/dev/jtag_uart", O_RDONLY);

this way I was thinking that it can't write and printf doesn't go out.

I also after it this:

close(file_dsc);

to close the driver so printf doesn't go to output driver.

But for both of them I see print sin my terminal.

Is it possible to close it at all, and if so which function could do it?

Alternative if there is no function to do so I think on onther solution.

Is there a way in the code during run, to change the driver of stdout from JTAG_UART to NONE and back?

attach 2 pic of the setting I need.

Thanks

Bar.

Hi,

Greetings and welcome to Intel's forum.

I assume you mean to stop the printf to stdout driver for jtag_uart. I will attach a screenshot.

However, you are unable to change the driver of stdout from JTAG_UART to NONE and back during run time.

Thank you.

Kelly

Thanks Kelly.

The setting I know. but if I want to stop printing while I run why the close() (as in NIOS command), or fclose() (as in standart C) doesn't stop the printing (no metter which is the stdout? Is there onther command that I can use for stoping printng?

Hi,

I don't think we have any functions for this as usually, we would want to avoid printf blocking to the output terminal.

Hope this clarifies your doubts.

Thanks.

Best,
