Clear a break condition on the serial line NOTE: Should be run at least one frame after set_break is called.

Close a file.

Returns

0 on success, negative error code on failure

Implements FileHandle.

Enable serial input.

If both serial input and serial output are disabled, the peripheral is freed. If either serial input or serial output is re-enabled, the peripheral is reinitialized.

On re-initialization rx interrupts will be enabled if a rx handler is attached. The rx handler is called once during re-initialization.

Enable or disable input.

Control enabling of device for input. This is primarily intended for temporary power-saving; the overall ability of the device to operate for input and/or output may be fixed at creation time, but this call can allow input to be temporarily disabled to permit power saving without losing device state.

Parameters

enabled

true to enable input, false to disable.

Returns

0 on success

Negative error code on failure

Reimplemented in UARTSerial.

Definition at line 236 of file FileHandle.h.

Enable serial output.

If both serial input and serial output are disabled, the peripheral is freed. If either serial input or serial output is re-enabled, the peripheral is reinitialized.

On re-initialization tx interrupts will be enabled if a tx handler is attached. The tx handler is called once during re-initialization.

Enable or disable output.

Control enabling of device for output. This is primarily intended for temporary power-saving; the overall ability of the device to operate for input and/or output may be fixed at creation time, but this call can allow output to be temporarily disabled to permit power saving without losing device state.

Parameters

enabled

true to enable output, false to disable.

Returns

Check for poll event flags You can use or ignore the input parameter.

You can return all events or check just the events listed in events. Call is nonblocking - returns instantaneous state of events. Whenever an event occurs, the derived class should call the sigio() callback).

bitmask of poll events we're interested in - POLLIN/POLLOUT etc.

Returns

bitmask of poll events that have occurred.

Reimplemented in UARTSerial.

Read the contents of a file into a buffer.

Devices acting as FileHandles should follow POSIX semantics:

• if no data is available, and nonblocking set, return -EAGAIN
• if no data is available, and blocking set, wait until some data is available
• If any data is available, call returns immediately

Parameters

buffer	The buffer to read in to
size	The number of bytes to read

Returns

The number of bytes read, 0 at end of file, negative error on failure

Implements FileHandle.

Begin asynchronous reading using 8bit buffer.

The read operation ends with any of the enabled events and invokes registered callback function (which can be NULL to not receive callback at all). Events that are not enabled by event argument are simply ignored. Operation has to be ended explicitly by calling abort_read() when no events are enabled. This function locks the deep sleep until any event has occurred.

Parameters

buffer	The buffer where received data will be stored
length	The buffer length in bytes
callback	The event callback function
event	The logical OR of RX events that should end operation
char_match	The matching character

Returns

Zero if new transaction was started, -1 if transaction is already on-going

Begin asynchronous reading using 16bit buffer.

The read operation ends with any of the enabled events and invokes registered callback function (which can be NULL to not receive callback at all). Events that are not enabled by event argument are simply ignored. Operation has to be ended explicitly by calling abort_read() when no events are enabled. This function locks the deep sleep until any event has occurred.

Parameters

buffer	The buffer where received data will be stored
length	The buffer length in bytes
callback	The event callback function
event	The logical OR of RX events that should end operation
char_match	The matching character

Returns

Zero if new transaction was started, -1 if transaction is already on-going

Definition depends on the subclass implementing FileHandle.

For example, if the FileHandle is of type Stream, readable() could return true when there is something available to read.

Returns

true when there is something available to read.

Definition at line 292 of file FileHandle.h.

Rewind the file position to the beginning of the file.

Note

This is equivalent to seek(0, SEEK_SET)

Reimplemented from FileHandle.

Move the file position to a given offset from from a given location.

Parameters

offset	The offset from whence to move to
whence	The start of where to seek SEEK_SET to start from beginning of file, SEEK_CUR to start from current position in file, SEEK_END to start from end of file

Returns

The new offset of the file, negative error code on failure

Implements FileHandle.

Generate a break condition on the serial line.

Set blocking or nonblocking mode of the file operation like read/write.

Definition depends on the subclass implementing FileHandle. The default is blocking.

Parameters

Returns

0 on success

Negative error code on failure

Reimplemented in UARTSerial.

Definition at line 209 of file FileHandle.h.

Generate a break condition on the serial line NOTE: Clear break needs to run at least one frame after set_break is called.

Set the flow control type on the serial port.

Parameters

type	the flow control type (Disabled, RTS, CTS, RTSCTS)
flow1	the first flow control pin (RTS for RTS or RTSCTS, CTS for CTS)
flow2	the second flow control pin (CTS for RTSCTS)

Set the flow control type on the serial port.

Parameters

type	the flow control type (Disabled, RTS, CTS, RTSCTS)
pinmap	reference to structure which holds static pinmap

Register a callback on state change of the file.

The specified callback will be called on state changes such as when the file can be written to or read from.

The callback may be called in an interrupt context and should not perform expensive operations.

Note! This is not intended as an attach-like asynchronous API, but rather as a building block for constructing such functionality.

The exact timing of when the registered function is called is not guaranteed and is susceptible to change. It should be used as a cue to make read/write/poll calls to find the current state.

Parameters

func	Function to call on state change

Reimplemented in UARTSerial.

Definition at line 314 of file FileHandle.h.
