I am trying to flush the audio device to which I have previously written a large no of bytes on a SUN SparcStation 1. However, the ioctl fails with an "invalid argument" error. My sample code is as follows: #include <fcntl.h> #include <stropts.h> char notes[20000]; main() { int i,fdaudio; fdopen ((fdaudio = open("/dev/audio",O_WRONLY)),"w"); fill_notes_array(); write (fdaudio,notes,20000); if ((ioctl (fdaudio,I_FLUSH,FLUSHW)) < 0) { /*this is where it fails !*/ perror ("Fatal Error: ioctl failed"); exit (-1); } else printf ("ioctl succeeded! \n"); } Any help would be appreciated !!!
