Set the size of a character device

Synopsis:

#define DCMD_CHR_SETSIZE    __DIOT(_CMD_IOCTL_TTY, 103, struct winsize) /* TIOCSWINSZ */

Arguments to devctl():

Argument Value
filedes A file descriptor that you obtained by opening the device.
dcmd DCMD_CHR_SETSIZE
dev_data_ptr A pointer to a struct winsize (see below)
n_bytes sizeof(struct winsize)
dev_info_ptr NULL

Description:

This command sets the size of a character device. It's also implemented as the TIOCSSIZE or TIOCSWINSZ ioctl() command.

Note:
This command is for internal use, and you shouldn't use it directly. Instead use the tcsetsize() cover function.

Input:

The winsize structure is defined in <sys/ioctl.h> as follows: 

struct winsize {
        unsigned short  ws_row;
        unsigned short  ws_col; 
        unsigned short  ws_xpixel;
        unsigned short  ws_ypixel; 
};

Output:

None.
