rpmsg_lite_dev RPMsg-Lite instance pointer

Returns: RL_TRUE when link up, RL_FALSE when down.

uint32_t rpmsg_lite_wait_for_link_up	(	struct rpmsg_lite_instance *	rpmsg_lite_dev,

int32_t rpmsg_lite_release_rx_buffer	(	struct rpmsg_lite_instance *	rpmsg_lite_dev,
		void *	rxbuf
	)

Releases the rx buffer for future reuse in vring. This API can be called at process context when the message in rx buffer is processed.

Parameters

rpmsg_lite_dev	RPMsg-Lite instance
rxbuf	Rx buffer with message payload

Returns: Status of function execution, RL_SUCCESS on success.

void* rpmsg_lite_alloc_tx_buffer	(	struct rpmsg_lite_instance *	rpmsg_lite_dev,
		uint32_t *	size,
		uintptr_t	timeout
	)

Allocates the tx buffer for message payload.

This API can only be called at process context to get the tx buffer in vring. By this way, the application can directly put its message into the vring tx buffer without copy from an application buffer. It is the application responsibility to correctly fill the allocated tx buffer by data and passing correct parameters to the rpmsg_lite_send_nocopy() function to perform data no-copy-send mechanism.

Parameters

	rpmsg_lite_dev	RPMsg-Lite instance
[in]	size	Pointer to store maximum payload size available
[in]	timeout	Integer, wait upto timeout ms or not for buffer to become available

Returns: The tx buffer address on success and RL_NULL on failure.

int32_t rpmsg_lite_send_nocopy	(	struct rpmsg_lite_instance *	rpmsg_lite_dev,
		struct rpmsg_lite_endpoint *	ept,
		uint32_t	dst,
		void *	data,
		uint32_t	size
	)

Sends a message in tx buffer allocated by rpmsg_lite_alloc_tx_buffer()

This function sends txbuf of length len to the remote dst address, and uses ept->addr as the source address. The application has to take the responsibility for:

tx buffer allocation (rpmsg_lite_alloc_tx_buffer())
filling the data to be sent into the pre-allocated tx buffer
not exceeding the buffer size when filling the data
data cache coherency

After the rpmsg_lite_send_nocopy() function is issued the tx buffer is no more owned by the sending task and must not be touched anymore unless the rpmsg_lite_send_nocopy() function fails and returns an error.

Parameters

	rpmsg_lite_dev	RPMsg-Lite instance
[in]	ept	Sender endpoint pointer
[in]	dst	Destination address
[in]	data	TX buffer with message filled
[in]	size	Length of payload

Returns: 0 on success and an appropriate error value on failure.
