Hi Titus,
You are opening your port with O_NDELAY, which means that you want
non-blocking IO. That means that if the port is currently unable to
accept data, write will return zero and not write anything. Your code
is failing to check that case. This probably works in the debugger
because you are slowing things way down, allowing buffers to empty
before you do the next write.
You either want to make your write blocking, or you need some strategy
for retrying the write if it didn't send the data.
