Comments on: pipe and FIFO…?? https://www.emblogic.com/blog/01/pipe-and-fifo/ Embedded System and ARM Training Mon, 07 Oct 2013 04:00:03 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.9.1 By: pushpa https://www.emblogic.com/blog/01/pipe-and-fifo/#comment-567 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:06:29 +0000 http://emblogic.org/blog/?p=1745#comment-567 i dont know if we have special command to flush FIFO.bt what i believe is that if we read all the information in FIFO then there will be nothing inside the fifo.si it will be flushed.

FIFO max size is 4096 defined in PIPE_BUF.if we make a loop in our pgm so that it reads all the characters till PIPE_BUF then it may work as flushing FIFO contents.

I hope my suggestion might help you.guide me if i m wrong
