"ctrl+c" disabled!

[Bill J.Xu]

hello everyone,

when I connect linux through serial port,and run a program such as "ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx",then I can not stop it by using "ctrl+c".and the only way is to telnet it,and kill that progress

why?

How do you 'connect' through the serial port? You need to use a
serial `getty` that properly sets up the terminal. The 'mini-getty'
used on recent distributions doesn't bother.
Also, if you are not using a real terminal, you need to use a terminal
program that actually sends a ^C.

I use the serial line to connect my computer with linux box, and I use the SecureCRT.
The following is the corresponding configuration of linux box' inittab file.

# Serial lines
s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L 9600 ttyS0 vt100
s2:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 9600 ttyS1 vt100

Thank you, dear Dick Johnson

Try this attached software. I was never satisfied with the
'getties' supplied by distributors when trying to use
RS-232C terminals.

Try:

  stty -a

and check the intr setting.  Maybe it's set to DEL (^?).
You can correct it with:

  stty intr "^c"

Ciao, ET.

Re: "ctrl+c" disabled!

[Bill J.Xu]

The following is the stty' result, I think it's right
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
bash-2.05# stty -a

intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^X; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;

Hmm... looks fine.  intr set to ^C and isig enabled.  Maybe you should check what
the terminal program is actually sending:

  od -tx1

Then type Ctrl-C Ctrl-D.  Should print "00000000 03".

How do you kill the process from telnet?  kill -9 <pid> or kill -2 <pid>?
Maybe sigint is ignored (possible if bash was started with ignored sigint -
broken/strange getty).  Is job control (^Z/fg) working?

Ciao, ET.

Re: "ctrl+c" disabled!

[Bill J.Xu]

after run od -tx1, the following is the result
------------------------------------------------
bash-2.05# ./od -tx1
0000000
------------------------------------------------
and I use "killall xxx_appname" to kill the progress after telnet the linux box.

That's after you pressed ^C in your terminal program? What you have 
there shows that od has not received any characters.

Pick another control character, and use 'stty intr' to set that as your 
interrupt character. I don't have any experience with SecureCRT, but it 
may use ^C to implement the Windows Edit->Copy function.

Re: "ctrl+c" disabled!

[Bill J.Xu]

Yeah,that is the result after pressing ctrl+c, ctrl+d. maybe od do not get the "ctrl+c" signal.
But I use SecureCRT with the same configration at the same PC to telnet the linux box,everything is OK.
So I think that if there is some thing wrong with linux kernel?

Check /proc/tty/driver/serial for framing errors.

Also check that both ends of your serial link are appropriately configured.

Either terminal sends nothing or line-discipline caught ^C correctly
but sent signal to wrong process or process ignores sigint.

Check whether "killall -INT xxx_appname" is able to kill the process.

Try killing the process via Ctrl-Z and then "kill %%".

Ciao, ET.

Re: "ctrl+c" disabled!

[Bill J.Xu]

Thanks all of you for helping me to resole the problem of "ctrl+c disable".

and now, the problem has been resolved.At the very start,when the system start,it give the user a shell prompt directly,at this instance,the "ctrl+c" disable. Afterward,I change the file of "/etc/inittab" as this:"s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 9600 ttyS0 vt100",then the problem is resolved.Maybe this is a apish a mistake.
:-)

thanks

Bill
