You have to use a string:
set (s1, "parity", "none");

See here:
octave:4> s = serial ("/dev/ttyS0", 115200)
s =

  Serial Port Object
    open:     1
    port:     /dev/ttyS0
    baudrate: 115200
    parity:   None
    bytesize: 8
    stopbits: 1
    timeout:  -1


octave:5> set (s, "parity", "o")
octave:6> s
s =

  Serial Port Object
    open:     1
    port:     /dev/ttyS0
    baudrate: 115200
    parity:   Odd
    bytesize: 8
    stopbits: 1
    timeout:  -1


octave:7> set (s, "parity", "n")
octave:8> s
s =

  Serial Port Object
    open:     1
    port:     /dev/ttyS0
    baudrate: 115200
    parity:   None
    bytesize: 8
    stopbits: 1
    timeout:  -1
