Function Documentation

serial_manager_status_t SerialManager_Init ( serial_handle_t  serialHandle,
const serial_manager_config_t config 
)

This function configures the Serial Manager module with user-defined settings. The user can configure the configuration structure. The parameter serialHandle is a pointer to point to a memory space of size SERIAL_MANAGER_HANDLE_SIZE allocated by the caller. The Serial Manager module supports three types of serial port, UART (includes UART, USART, LPSCI, LPUART, etc), USB CDC and swo. Please refer to serial_port_type_t for serial port setting. These three types can be set by using serial_manager_config_t.

Example below shows how to use this API to configure the Serial Manager. For UART,

* #define SERIAL_MANAGER_RING_BUFFER_SIZE (256U)
* static SERIAL_MANAGER_HANDLE_DEFINE(s_serialHandle);
* static uint8_t s_ringBuffer[SERIAL_MANAGER_RING_BUFFER_SIZE];
*
* serial_port_uart_config_t uartConfig;
* config.ringBuffer = &s_ringBuffer[0];
* config.ringBufferSize = SERIAL_MANAGER_RING_BUFFER_SIZE;
* uartConfig.instance = 0;
* uartConfig.clockRate = 24000000;
* uartConfig.baudRate = 115200;
* uartConfig.parityMode = kSerialManager_UartParityDisabled;
* uartConfig.stopBitCount = kSerialManager_UartOneStopBit;
* uartConfig.enableRx = 1;
* uartConfig.enableTx = 1;
* uartConfig.enableRxRTS = 0;
* uartConfig.enableTxCTS = 0;
* config.portConfig = &uartConfig;
* SerialManager_Init((serial_handle_t)s_serialHandle, &config);
*

For USB CDC,

* #define SERIAL_MANAGER_RING_BUFFER_SIZE (256U)
* static SERIAL_MANAGER_HANDLE_DEFINE(s_serialHandle);
* static uint8_t s_ringBuffer[SERIAL_MANAGER_RING_BUFFER_SIZE];
*
* config.ringBuffer = &s_ringBuffer[0];
* config.ringBufferSize = SERIAL_MANAGER_RING_BUFFER_SIZE;
* config.portConfig = &usbCdcConfig;
* SerialManager_Init((serial_handle_t)s_serialHandle, &config);
*
Parameters
serialHandlePointer to point to a memory space of size SERIAL_MANAGER_HANDLE_SIZE allocated by the caller. The handle should be 4 byte aligned, because unaligned access doesn't be supported on some devices. You can define the handle in the following two ways: SERIAL_MANAGER_HANDLE_DEFINE(serialHandle); or uint32_t serialHandle[((SERIAL_MANAGER_HANDLE_SIZE + sizeof(uint32_t) - 1U) / sizeof(uint32_t))];
configPointer to user-defined configuration structure.
Return values
kStatus_SerialManager_ErrorAn error occurred.
kStatus_SerialManager_SuccessThe Serial Manager module initialization succeed.
serial_manager_status_t SerialManager_Deinit ( serial_handle_t  serialHandle)

This function de-initializes the serial manager module instance. If the opened writing or reading handle is not closed, the function will return kStatus_SerialManager_Busy.

Parameters
serialHandleThe serial manager module handle pointer.
Return values
kStatus_SerialManager_SuccessThe serial manager de-initialization succeed.
kStatus_SerialManager_BusyOpened reading or writing handle is not closed.
serial_manager_status_t SerialManager_OpenWriteHandle ( serial_handle_t  serialHandle,
serial_write_handle_t  writeHandle 
)

This function Opens a writing handle for the serial manager module. If the serial manager needs to be used in different tasks, the task should open a dedicated write handle for itself by calling SerialManager_OpenWriteHandle. Since there can only one buffer for transmission for the writing handle at the same time, multiple writing handles need to be opened when the multiple transmission is needed for a task.

Parameters
serialHandleThe serial manager module handle pointer. The handle should be 4 byte aligned, because unaligned access doesn't be supported on some devices.
writeHandleThe serial manager module writing handle pointer. The handle should be 4 byte aligned, because unaligned access doesn't be supported on some devices. You can define the handle in the following two ways: SERIAL_MANAGER_WRITE_HANDLE_DEFINE(writeHandle); or uint32_t writeHandle[((SERIAL_MANAGER_WRITE_HANDLE_SIZE + sizeof(uint32_t) - 1U) / sizeof(uint32_t))];
Return values
kStatus_SerialManager_ErrorAn error occurred.
kStatus_SerialManager_HandleConflictThe writing handle was opened.
kStatus_SerialManager_SuccessThe writing handle is opened.

Example below shows how to use this API to write data. For task 1,

* static SERIAL_MANAGER_WRITE_HANDLE_DEFINE(s_serialWriteHandle1);
* static uint8_t s_nonBlockingWelcome1[] = "This is non-blocking writing log for task1!\r\n";
* SerialManager_InstallTxCallback((serial_write_handle_t)s_serialWriteHandle1,
* Task1_SerialManagerTxCallback,
* s_serialWriteHandle1);
* SerialManager_WriteNonBlocking((serial_write_handle_t)s_serialWriteHandle1,
* s_nonBlockingWelcome1,
* sizeof(s_nonBlockingWelcome1) - 1U);
*

For task 2,

* static SERIAL_MANAGER_WRITE_HANDLE_DEFINE(s_serialWriteHandle2);
* static uint8_t s_nonBlockingWelcome2[] = "This is non-blocking writing log for task2!\r\n";
* SerialManager_InstallTxCallback((serial_write_handle_t)s_serialWriteHandle2,
* Task2_SerialManagerTxCallback,
* s_serialWriteHandle2);
* SerialManager_WriteNonBlocking((serial_write_handle_t)s_serialWriteHandle2,
* s_nonBlockingWelcome2,
* sizeof(s_nonBlockingWelcome2) - 1U);
*
serial_manager_status_t SerialManager_CloseWriteHandle ( serial_write_handle_t  writeHandle)

This function Closes a writing handle for the serial manager module.

Parameters
writeHandleThe serial manager module writing handle pointer.

You can define the handle in the following two ways: SERIAL_MANAGER_READ_HANDLE_DEFINE(readHandle); or uint32_t readHandle[((SERIAL_MANAGER_READ_HANDLE_SIZE + sizeof(uint32_t) - 1U) / sizeof(uint32_t))];
Return values
kStatus_SerialManager_ErrorAn error occurred.

kStatus_SerialManager_BusyPrevious reading handle is not closed.

Example below shows how to use this API to read data.

* static SERIAL_MANAGER_READ_HANDLE_DEFINE(s_serialReadHandle);
* static uint8_t s_nonBlockingBuffer[64];
* SerialManager_InstallRxCallback((serial_read_handle_t)s_serialReadHandle,
