Matti Katila added the comment: Linux Programmer’s Manual for ptmx and pts - pseudo-terminal master and slave states:
"Data written to the slave is presented on the master descriptor as input. Data written to the master is presented to the slave as input." The data can be read from slave to master but not from master to slave.
