Under certain circumstances, it might be necessary to send a serial-break sequence to
the platform OS (for example, to simulate the SysRq key when
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ is defined and enabled in a Linux kernel).
To perform this operation, use the following sequence:
^Ecl0
(Control-E, followed by the lowercase letter “C”, the lowercase letter “L” and the
digit “0”.)
The platform console command responds by displaying the string [halt
sent]
, confirming that the break sequence has been generated.
In the event that console output becomes corrupted, ^Ecd ^Eco usually restores
proper operation; this problem is normally due to flow-control issues.
