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.

The unit test does not test this issue either:
