A learning summary post for myself~~ whaosoft aiot http://143ai.com Here is only the second season of embedded related codes in c language
1. Efficiently parse protocol frames of variable length
The flexibility of the protocol is considered in the communication design, and the protocol is often designed as "indefinite length". An example is shown in the figure below: the communication protocol frame of RMI LoRa terminal. If a system receives the above-mentioned "indefinite length" protocol frame, there will be a challenge - how to efficiently receive and parse it.
In order to simplify the system design, we strongly recommend that you use a "state machine" to parse the UART data frame, and put the parsing work in the ISR (Interrupt Service Routine) to complete, and only when the last byte (0x0D) is received, the entire The data frame is submitted to the process for processing. The principle of the parsing state machine is shown in the figure below: So is it too late for the ISR to process this state machine? The answer is: so easy! Because it only has 3 actions, the amount of calculation is very small:
Compare received data -> update state variables -> store received data, there are only 3 statements in C language, and no more than 10 machine instructions when translated.
The code listing is as follows:
/**
* @brief Status of received communication frame
*/
typedef enum
{
STATUS_IDLE = (uint8_t)0,
STATUS_HEAD, /* Rx Head=0x3C */
STATUS_TYPE, /* Rx Type */
STATUS_DATA, /* Data filed */
STATUS_TAIL, /* Tail=0x0D */
STATUS_END, /* End of this frame */
} COMM_TRM_STATUS_TypeDef;
/**
* @brief Data object for received communication frame
*/
typedef struct
{
uint8_t byCnt; /* Count of 1 field */
uint8_t byDataLen; /* Length of data field */
uint8_t byFrameLen; /* Length of frame */
COMM_TRM_STATUS_TypeDef eRxStatus;
uint8_t a_byRxBuf[MAX_LEN_COMM_TRM_DATA];
} COMM_TRM_DATA;
/**
* @brief Data object for received communication frame.
* @note Prevent race condition that accessed by both ISR and process.
*/
static COMM_TRM_DATA s_stComm2TrmData;
/**
* @brief Put a data that received by UART into buffer.
* @note Prevent race condition this called by ISR.
* @param uint8_t byData: the data received by UART.
* @retval None
*/
void comm2trm_RxUartData(uint8_t byData)

/* Update status according to the received data */
switch (s_stComm2TrmData.eRxStatus)
{
case STATUS_IDLE:

{
s_stComm2TrmData.eRxStatus = STATUS_HEAD;
