Closest thing I've found so far is for HPUX 11i Version 2: http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-90848docs/B2355-90848docs.pdf
>>>> TIOCREMOTE This ioctl puts the STREAMS pty in and out of Remote Mode. When Remote Mode is on, input data will be flow-controlled and passed through ldterm without any input processing regardless of the terminal mode. When the pty master driver receives this ioctl, it will send an M_CTL message downstream to ldterm via ptm, pts, and ptem. The command in the M_CTL message is set to MC_NO_CANON or MC_DO_CANON depending whether to turn on or off the Remote Mode. The format of this ioctl is: int ioctl(master_fd, TIOCREMOTE, argument) where the argument is set to 1 to turn on Remote Mode and 0 to turn it off. Remote Mode is normally used when doing remote line editing in a window manager, or whenever flow-controlled input is required. Each write to the master device produces a record boundary for the process reading the slave devices. In normal usage, a write of data is like the data typed as a line on the terminal; a write of 0 (zero) bytes is like typing an EOF (End-of-File) character.
TIOCSIGNAL This ioctl allows the master process to send a signal to the slave process. The format of this ioctl is:
int ioctl(master_fd, TIOCSIGNAL, argument) where the argument is the signal number as defined in the header file <sys/signal.h>. For example the master process can send an SIGINT signal to the slave process by doing: ioctl(master_fd, TIOCSIGNAL, SIGINT) <<<<
TIOCREMOTE seems to be the SVR4 analogue to TIOCPKT without any of the useful parts; it doesn't include the prefix byte, so it doesn't provide any state change information.
