UART_Open Function
Header: #include <applibs/uart.h>
Opens and configures a UART, and returns a file descriptor to use for subsequent calls.
int UART_Open(UART_Id uartId, const UART_Config * uartConfig);
Parameters
uartId
The ID of the UART to open.uartConfig
A pointer to a UART_Config struct that defines the configuration of the UART. Call UART_InitConfig to get a UART_Config with default settings.
Errors
Returns -1 if an error is encountered and sets errno
to the error value.
EACCES: access to UART_Id is not permitted as the
uartId
is not listed in the Uart field of the application manifest.ENODEV: the
uartId
is invalid.EINVAL: the
uartConfig
represents an invalid configuration.EBUSY: the
uartId
is already open.EFAULT: the
uartConfig
is NULL.
Any other errno
may also be specified; such errors aren't deterministic and the same behavior might not be retained through system updates.
Return value
Returns the file descriptor of the UART if it was opened successfully, or -1 for failure, in which case errno
is set to the error value.
Application manifest requirements
To access individual UARTs, your application must identify them in the Uart field of the application manifest.
