UART HAL

The UART HAL definitions is in dev_uart.h, it provide interfaces for uart driver to implement. Here is a diagram for the uart interface.

UART HAL

Definitions

group DEVICE_HAL_UART_DEVSTRUCT

Contains definitions of uart device interface structure.

This structure will be used in user implemented code, which was called Device Driver Implement Layer for uart to use in implementation code. Application developer should use the UART API provided here to access to UART devices. BSP developer should follow the API definition to implement UART device drivers.

Defines

DEV_UART_INFO_SET_EXTRA_OBJECT(uart_info_ptr, extra_info)

Set extra information pointer of uart info

DEV_UART_INFO_GET_EXTRA_OBJECT(uart_info_ptr)

Get extra information pointer of uart info

Typedefs

typedef struct dev_uart_info DEV_UART_INFO

UART information struct definition.

informations about uart open count, working status, baudrate, uart registers and ctrl structure, uart dps format

typedef struct dev_uart_info *DEV_UART_INFO_PTR
typedef struct dev_uart DEV_UART

UART device interface definition.

Define uart device interface, like uart information structure, provide functions to open/close/control uart, send/receive data by uart

Note

All this details are implemented by user in user porting code

typedef struct dev_uart *DEV_UART_PTR

Variables

int32_t (*uart_open)(uint32_t baud)

Open uart device

open an uart device with defined baudrate

Parameters

baud – [in] initial baudrate of uart, must > 0

Returns

  • E_OK – Open successfully without any issues

  • E_OPNED – If device was opened before with different parameters, then just increase the opn_cnt and return E_OPNED

  • E_OBJ – Device object is not valid

  • E_PAR – Parameter is not valid

  • E_NOSPT – Open settings are not supported

int32_t (*uart_close)(void)

Close uart device

close an uart device, just decrease the opn_cnt, if opn_cnt equals 0, then close the device

Returns

  • E_OK – Close successfully without any issues(including scenario that device is already closed)

  • E_OPNED – Device is still opened, the device opn_cnt decreased by 1

  • E_OBJ – Device object is not valid

int32_t (*uart_control)(uint32_t ctrl_cmd, void *param)

Control uart device

control an uart device by ctrl_cmd, with passed param. you can control uart device using predefined uart control commands defined using DEV_SET_SYSCMD (which must be implemented by bsp developer), such as change baudrate, flush output and more. And you can also control uart device using your own specified commands defined using DEV_SET_USRCMD, but these specified commands should be defined in your own uart device driver implementation.

Parameters

  • ctrl_cmd – [in] control command, to change or get some thing related to uart

  • param – [inout] parameters that maybe argument of the command, or return values of the command

Returns

  • E_OK – Control device successfully

  • E_CLSED – Device is not opened

  • E_OBJ – Device object is not valid or not exists

  • E_PAR – Parameter is not valid for current control command

  • E_SYS – Control device failed, due to hardware issues, such as device is disabled

  • E_CTX – Control device failed, due to different reasons like in transfer state

  • E_NOSPT – Control command is not supported or not valid

int32_t (*uart_write)(const void *data, uint32_t len)

Send data by uart device(blocked)

send data through uart with defined len(blocked).

Parameters

  • data – [in] pointer to data need to send by uart, must not be NULL

  • len – [in] length of data to be sent, must > 0

Returns

  • >0 – Byte count that was successfully sent for poll method

  • E_OBJ – Device object is not valid or not exists

  • E_PAR – Parameter is not valid

  • E_SYS – Can’t write data to hardware due to hardware issues, such as device is disabled

int32_t (*uart_read)(void *data, uint32_t len)

Read data from uart device(blocked)

receive data of defined len through uart(blocked).

Parameters

  • data – [out] pointer to data need to received by uart, must not be NULL

  • len – [in] length of data to be received, must > 0

Returns

  • >0 – Byte count that was successfully received for poll method

  • E_OBJ – Device object is not valid or not exists

  • E_PAR – Parameter is not valid

  • E_SYS – Can’t receive data from hardware due to hardware issues, such as device is disabled

struct dev_uart_info
#include <dev_uart.h>

UART information struct definition.

informations about uart open count, working status, baudrate, uart registers and ctrl structure, uart dps format

struct dev_uart
#include <dev_uart.h>

UART device interface definition.

Define uart device interface, like uart information structure, provide functions to open/close/control uart, send/receive data by uart

Note

All this details are implemented by user in user porting code
