Detailed Description

Debug I/O Interface.

This struct represents a single dbgio interface. This should represent a generic pollable console interface. We will store an ordered list of these statically linked into the program and fall back from one to the next until one returns true for detected(). Note that the last device in this chain is the null console, which will always return true.

Field Documentation

detected

int(* dbgio_handler_t::detected) (void)

Detect this debug interface.

Return values

1	If the device is available and usable
0	If the device is unavailable

flush

int(* dbgio_handler_t::flush) (void)

Flush any queued output.

Return values

0	On success
-1	On error (set errno as appropriate)

init

int(* dbgio_handler_t::init) (void)

Initialize this debug interface with default parameters.

Return values

0	On success
-1	On failure

name

const char* dbgio_handler_t::name

Name of the dbgio handler.

read

int(* dbgio_handler_t::read) (void)

Read one character from the console.

Return values

0	On success
-1	On failure (set errno as appropriate)

read_buffer

int(* dbgio_handler_t::read_buffer) (uint8 *data, int len)

Read an entire buffer of data from the console.

Parameters

data	The buffer to read into
len	The length of the buffer

Returns

Number of characters read on success, or -1 on failure (set errno as appropriate)

set_irq_usage

int(* dbgio_handler_t::set_irq_usage) (int mode)

Set either polled or IRQ usage for this interface.

Parameters

mode	1 for IRQ-based usage, 0 for polled I/O

Return values

0	On success
-1	On failure

shutdown

int(* dbgio_handler_t::shutdown) (void)

Shutdown this debug interface.

Return values

0	On success
-1	On failure

write

int(* dbgio_handler_t::write) (int c)

Write one character to the console.

Parameters

c	The character to write

Return values

1	On success
-1	On error (set errno as appropriate)

Note

Interfaces may require a call to flush() before the output is actually flushed to the console.

write_buffer

int(* dbgio_handler_t::write_buffer) (const uint8 *data, int len, int xlat)

Write an entire buffer of data to the console.

Parameters

data	The buffer to write
len	The length of the buffer
xlat	If non-zero, newline transformations may occur

Returns

Number of characters written on success, or -1 on failure (set errno as appropriate)
