Bug#797479: write(2): returns success but discards the data



Control: severity -1 important
Control: reassign -1 manpages-dev

This behaviour applies only to tty (serial/pty/vt) devices in
'canonical' mode, and is intentional:
https://sources.debian.net/src/linux/3.16.7-ckt11-1%2Bdeb8u3/drivers/tty/n_tty.c/#L1682

This isn't mentioned in termios(3), though, so I'm reassigning it
 accordingly.

Ben.

Life would be so much easier if we could look at the source code.
