So I tried to open /dev/ttyp4 with O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY. The issue is permission denied: ``` 16<--34(pid2144)->dir_lookup ("dev/ttyp4" 3 0) = 0x4000000d (Permission denied) 31<--28(pid2144)->io_stat_request () = 0 {14 1097 0 0 0 1686195791 0 8397200 1 1001 5 0 0 1738811410 0 1738811410 0 1738811410 0 512 8 0 0 0 132145264 102787024 132262720 132147840 102788912 494940384 132323120 132272016} 25<--40(pid2144)->io_write_request ("open() failed\n" -1)open() failed ``` When I run with sudo, it hanged.
