Include:
<altera_16550_uart.h>
Parameters:
context – device of the UART
Returns:
none
Description:
Interrupt handler to process UART interrupts to
process receiver/transmit interrupts.
Table 9-19: alt_16550_uart_rxirq
Prototype:
static void altera_16550_uart_rxirq (altera_16550_
uart_dev* dev, alt_u32
Include:
<altera_16550_uart.h>
Parameters:
context – device of the UART
Returns:
none
Description:
Process a receive interrupt. It transfers the incoming
character into the receiver circular buffer, and sets
the appropriate flags to indicate that there is data
ready to be processed.
Table 9-20: alt_16550_uart_txirq
Prototype:
static void altera_16550_uart_txirq (altera_16550_
uart_dev* dev, alt_u32 status
Include:
<altera_16550_uart.h>
Parameters:
context – device of the UART
Returns:
none
Description:
Process a transmit interrupt. It transfers data from
the transmit buffer to the device, and sets the
appropriate flags to indicate that there is data ready
to be processed.
