  @mainpage SmartFusion2 MSS UART Bare Metal Driver.
  ==============================================================================
  @section intro_sec Introduction
  ==============================================================================
  The SmartFusion2 microcontroller subsystem (MSS) includes two multi-mode UART
  (MMUART) peripherals for serial communication. This driver provides a set of
  functions for controlling the MSS MMUARTs  as part of a bare metal system
  where no operating system is available. These drivers can be adapted for use
  as part of an operating system, but the implementation of the adaptation layer
  between this driver and the operating system's driver model is outside the
  scope of this driver.
  Note: MSS UART is synonymous with MSS MMUART in this document.
  
  ==============================================================================
  @section hw_dependencies Hardware Flow Dependencies
  ==============================================================================
  The configuration of all features of the MSS MMUART peripherals is covered by
  this driver with the exception of the SmartFusion2 IOMUX configuration.
  SmartFusion2 allows multiple non-concurrent uses of some external pins through
  IOMUX configuration. This feature allows optimization of external pin usage by
  assigning external pins for use by either the microcontroller subsystem or the
  FPGA fabric. The MSS MMUART serial signals are routed through IOMUXs to the
  SmartFusion2 device external pins. The MSS MMUART serial signals may also be
  routed through IOMUXs to the SmartFusion2 FPGA fabric. For more information on
  IOMUX, refer to the IOMUX section of the SmartFusion2 Microcontroller
  Subsystem (MSS) User’s Guide.
  The IOMUXs are configured using the SmartFusion2 MSS configurator tool. You
  must ensure that the MSS MMUART peripherals are enabled and configured in the
  SmartFusion2 MSS configurator if you wish to use them. For more information on
  IOMUXs, refer to the IOMUX section of the SmartFusion2 Microcontroller
  Subsystem (MSS) User’s Guide.
  The base address, register addresses and interrupt number assignment for the
  MSS MMUART peripherals are defined as constants in the SmartFusion2 CMSIS HAL.
  You must ensure that the latest SmartFusion2 CMSIS HAL is included in the
  project settings of the software tool chain used to build your project and
  that it is generated into your project.

  @section theory_op Theory of Operation
  ==============================================================================
  The MSS MMUART driver functions are grouped into the following categories:
    - Initialization and configuration functions
    - Polled transmit and receive functions
    - Interrupt driven transmit and receive functions
    
  --------------------------------
  Initialization and Configuration
  --------------------------------
  The MSS MMUART supports the following four broad modes of operation:
    - UART or USART mode
    - LIN mode
    - IrDA mode
    - Smartcard or ISO 7816 mode
  The MSS MMUART driver provides the MSS_UART_init(), MSS_UART_lin_init(),
  MSS_UART_irda_init() and MSS_UART_smartcard_init() functions to initialize the
  MSS MMUARTs for operation in one of these modes. One of these initialization
  functions must be called before any other MSS MMUART driver functions can be
  called. The MSS MMUART operating modes are mutually exclusive; therefore only
  one of the initialization functions must be called. The first parameter of the
  initialization functions is a pointer to one of two global data structures
  used to store state information for each MSS MMUART. A pointer to these data
  structures is also used as the first parameter to many of the driver functions
  to identify which MSS MMUART will be used by the called function. The names of
  these two data structures are g_mss_uart0 and g_mss_uart1. Therefore, any call
  to an MSS MMUART function should be of the form 
  MSS_UART_function_name( &g_mss_uart0, ... ) or
  MSS_UART_function_name( &g_mss_uart1, ... ).
  
  UART or USART Mode
  For the UART or USART modes of operation, the MSS MMUART driver is initialized
  through a call to the MSS_UART_init() function. This function takes the UART’s
  configuration as its parameters. The MSS_UART_init() function must be called
  before any other MSS MMUART driver functions can be called.
  The MSS_UART_init() function configures the baud rate based on the input baud
  rate parameter and if possible uses a fractional baud rate for greater
  precision. This function disables the LIN, IrDA and SmartCard modes.
  
  LIN mode
  For the LIN mode of operation, the MSS MMUART driver is initialized through a
  call to the MSS_UART_lin_init() function. This function takes the LIN node’s
  configuration as its parameters. The MSS_UART_lin_init() function must be
  called before any other MSS MMUART driver functions can be called. The
  MSS_UART_lin_init() function configures the baud rate based on the input baud
  rate parameter and if possible uses a fractional baud rate for greater
  precision. This function disables the IrDA and SmartCard modes.
  The driver also provides the following LIN mode configuration functions:
    - MSS_UART_set_break()
    - MSS_UART_clear_break()
    - MSS_UART_set_pidpei_handler()
    - MSS_UART_set_linbreak_handler()
    - MSS_UART_set_linsync_handler()
  Note: These LIN mode configuration functions can only be called after the
  MSS_UART_lin_init() function is called.
  
  IrDA mode
  For the IrDA mode of operation, the driver is initialized through a call to
  the MSS_UART_irda_init() function. This function takes the IrDA node’s
  configuration as its parameters. The MSS_UART_irda_init() function must be
  called before any other MSS MMUART driver functions can be called. The
  MSS_UART_irda_init() function configures the baud rate based on the input baud
  rate parameter and if possible uses a fractional baud rate for greater
  precision. This function disables the LIN and SmartCard modes.
  
  Smartcard or ISO 7816 mode
  For the Smartcard or ISO 7816 mode of operation, the driver is initialized
  through a call to the MSS_UART_smartcard_init() function. This function takes
  the smartcard configuration as its parameters. The MSS_UART_smartcard_init()
  function must be called before any other MSS MMUART driver functions can be
  called. The MSS_UART_smartcard_init() function configures the baud rate based
  on the input baud rate parameter and if possible uses a fractional baud rate
  for greater precision. This function disables the LIN and IrDA modes.
  The driver also provides the following Smartcard mode configuration functions:
    - MSS_UART_enable_halfduplex()
    - MSS_UART_disable_halfduplex()
    - MSS_UART_set_nack_handler()
  Note: These Smartcard mode configuration functions can only be called after
  the MSS_UART_smartcard_init() function is called.
  
  Common Configuration Functions
  The driver also provides the configuration functions that can be used with all
  MSS MMUART operating modes. These common configuration functions are as
  follows:
    - MSS_UART_set_rx_endian()
    - MSS_UART_set_tx_endian()
    - MSS_UART_enable_afclear()
    - MSS_UART_disable_afclear()
    - MSS_UART_enable_rx_timeout()
    - MSS_UART_disable_rx_timeout()
    - MSS_UART_enable_tx_time_guard()
    - MSS_UART_disable_tx_time_guard()
    - MSS_UART_set_address()
    - MSS_UART_set_ready_mode()
    - MSS_UART_set_usart_mode()
    - MSS_UART_set_filter_length()
    - MSS_UART_enable_afm()
    - MSS_UART_disable_afm()
  Note: These configuration functions can only be called after one of the
        MSS_UART_init(), MSS_UART_lin_init(), MSS_UART_irda_init() or
        MSS_UART_smartcard_init() functions is called.
  
  --------------------------------------  
  Polled Transmit and Receive Operations
  --------------------------------------
  The driver can be used to transmit and receive data once initialized. 
  Data is transmitted using the MSS_UART_polled_tx() function. This function is
  blocking, meaning that it will only return once the data passed to the
  function has been sent to the MSS MMUART hardware transmitter. Data received
  by the MSS MMUART hardware receiver can be read by the MSS_UART_get_rx()
  function.
  The MSS_UART_polled_tx_string() function is provided to transmit a NULL (‘\0’)
  terminated string in polled mode. This function is blocking, meaning that it
  will only return once the data passed to the function has been sent to the MSS
  MMUART hardware transmitter.
  The MSS_UART_fill_tx_fifo() function fills the MSS MMUART hardware transmit
  FIFO with data from a buffer passed as a parameter and returns the number of
  bytes transferred to the FIFO. If the transmit FIFO is not empty when the
  MSS_UART_fill_tx_fifo() function is called it returns immediately without
  transferring any data to the FIFO.
  
  ---------------------------
  Interrupt Driven Operations
  ---------------------------
  The driver can also transmit or receive data under interrupt control, freeing
  your application to perform other tasks until an interrupt occurs indicating
  that the driver’s attention is required.
  
  Interrupt Handlers
  The MSS MMUART driver supports all types of interrupt triggered by the MSS
  MMUART. The driver’s internal top level interrupt handler identifies the
  source of the MSS MMUART interrupt and calls the corresponding lower level
  handler function that you previously registered with the driver through calls
  to the MSS_UART_set_rx_handler(), MSS_UART_set_tx_handler(),
  MSS_UART_set_rxstatus_handler(), and MSS_UART_set_modemstatus_handler()
  functions. You are responsible for creating these lower level interrupt
  handlers as part of your application program and registering them with the
  driver.
  Note: The SmartFusion2 CMSIS-PAL defines the UART0_IRQHandler() and
        UART1_IRQHandler() functions (with weak linkage) and assigns them as the
        interrupt service routines (ISR) for the MSS MMUART interrupt inputs to
        the Cortex-M3 NVIC. The MSS MMUART driver provides the implementation
        functions for both of these ISRs from which it calls its own internal
        top level, interrupt handler function.
  The MSS_UART_enable_irq() and MSS_UART_disable_irq() functions are used to
  enable or disable the received line status, received data available/character
  timeout, transmit holding register empty and modem status interrupts at the
  MSS MMUART level. The MSS_UART_enable_irq() function also enables the MSS
  MMUART instance interrupt at the Cortex-M3 level.
  
  Transmitting Data
  Interrupt-driven transmit is initiated by a call to MSS_UART_irq_tx(),
  specifying the block of data to transmit. Your application is then free to
  perform other tasks and inquire later whether transmit has completed by
  calling the MSS_UART_tx_complete() function. The MSS_UART_irq_tx() function
  enables the UART’s transmit holding register empty (THRE) interrupt and then,
  when the interrupt goes active, the driver’s default THRE interrupt handler
  transfers the data block to the UART until the entire block is transmitted.
  Note: You can use the MSS_UART_set_tx_handler() function to assign an
        alternative handler to the THRE interrupt. In this case, you must not
        use the MSS_UART_irq_tx() function to initiate the transmit, as this
        will re-assign the driver’s default THRE interrupt handler to the THRE
        interrupt. Instead, your alternative THRE interrupt handler must include
        a call to the MSS_UART_fill_tx_fifo() function to transfer the data to
        the UART.
  
  Receiving Data
  Interrupt-driven receive is performed by first calling
  MSS_UART_set_rx_handler() to register a receive handler function that will be
  called by the driver whenever receive data is available. You must provide this
  receive handler function which must include a call to the MSS_UART_get_rx()
  function to actually read the received data.
  
  -----------
  UART Status
  -----------
  The function MSS_UART_get_rx_status() is used to read the receiver error
  status. This function returns the overrun, parity, framing, break, and FIFO
  error status of the receiver.
  The function MSS_UART_get_tx_status() is used to read the transmitter status.
  This function returns the transmit empty (TEMT) and transmit holding register
  empty (THRE) status of the transmitter.
  The function MSS_UART_get_modem_status() is used to read the modem status
  flags. This function returns the current value of the modem status register.
  
  --------
  Loopback
  --------
  The MSS_UART_set_loopback() function can be used to locally loopback the Tx
  and Rx lines of a UART. This is not to be confused with the loopback of UART0
  to UART1, which can be achieved through the microcontroller subsystem’s system
  registers.

  buffer, or just enough data from the FIFO to fill the receive buffer,
  dependent upon the size of the receive buffer passed by the buff_size
  parameter. The MSS_UART_get_rx() function returns the number of bytes copied
  into the receive buffer .This function is non-blocking and will return 0
  immediately if no data has been received.

  Note:     The MSS_UART_get_rx() function reads and accumulates the receiver
  status of the MSS UART instance before reading each byte from the receiver's
  data register/FIFO. This allows the driver to maintain a sticky record of any
  receiver errors that occur as the UART receives each data byte; receiver
  errors would otherwise be lost after each read from the receiver's data register.
  A call to the MSS_UART_get_rx_status() function returns any receiver errors
  accumulated during the execution of the MSS_UART_get_rx() function.

  Note:     If you need to read the error status for each byte received, set
  the buff_size to 1 and read the receive line error status for each byte
  using the MSS_UART_get_rx_status() function.
  The MSS_UART_get_rx() function can be used in polled mode, where it is called
  at regular intervals to find out if any data has been received, or in interrupt
  driven-mode, where it is called as part of a receive handler that is called
  by the driver as a result of data being received.

  Note:     In interrupt driven mode you should call the MSS_UART_get_rx()
  function as part of the receive handler function that you register with
  the MSS UART driver through a call to MSS_UART_set_rx_handler().

  @param this_uart
    The this_uart parameter is a pointer to an mss_uart_instance_t
    structure identifying the MSS UART hardware block that will perform
    the requested function. There are two such data structures,
    g_mss_uart0 and g_mss_uart1, associated with MSS UART0 and MSS UART1.
    This parameter must point to either the g_mss_uart0 or g_mss_uart1
    global data structure defined within the UART driver.

  @param rx_buff
    The rx_buff parameter is a pointer to a buffer where the received
    data is copied.

  @param buff_size
    The buff_size parameter specifies the size of the receive buffer in bytes.

  @return
    This function returns the number of bytes that were copied into the
    rx_buff buffer. It returns 0 if no data has been received.

  Polled mode example:
  @code
   int main( void )
   {
      uint8_t rx_buff[RX_BUFF_SIZE];
      uint32_t rx_idx  = 0;

      MSS_UART_init(&g_mss_uart0,

  Note:     The MSS_UART_set_modemstatus_handler() function enables both the MS
  interrupt in the UART and the MSS UART instance interrupt in the Cortex-M3 NVIC
  as part of its implementation.

  Note:     You can disable the MS interrupt when required by calling the

  FIFO with the data found in the transmitter buffer that is passed via the
  tx_buffer function parameter. If the transmitter FIFO is not empty when
  the function is called, the function returns immediately without transferring
  any data to the FIFO; otherwise, the function transfers data from the
  transmitter buffer to the FIFO until it is full or until the complete
  contents of the transmitter buffer have been copied into the FIFO. The
  function returns the number of bytes copied into the UART's transmitter FIFO.

  Note:     This function reads the UART’s line status register (LSR) to check
  for the active state of the transmitter holding register empty (THRE) bit
  before transferring data from the data buffer to the transmitter FIFO. If
  THRE is 0, the function returns immediately, without transferring any data
  to the FIFO. If THRE is 1, the function transfers up to 16 bytes of data
  to the FIFO and then returns.

  Note:     The actual transmission over the serial connection will still be

  The MSS_UART_get_rx_status() function returns the receiver error status of the
  MSS UART instance. It reads both the current error status of the receiver from
  the UART’s line status register (LSR) and the accumulated error status from
  preceding calls to the MSS_UART_get_rx() function, and it combines them using
  a bitwise OR. It returns the cumulative overrun, parity, framing, break and
  FIFO error status of the receiver, since the previous call to
  MSS_UART_get_rx_status(), as an 8-bit encoded value.

  Note:     The MSS_UART_get_rx() function reads and accumulates the receiver
  status of the MSS UART instance before reading each byte from the receiver’s
  data register/FIFO. The driver maintains a sticky record of the cumulative
  receiver error status, which persists after the MSS_UART_get_rx() function
  returns. The MSS_UART_get_rx_status() function clears the driver’s sticky
  receiver error record before returning.

  Note:     The driver’s transmit functions also read the line status
  register (LSR) as part of their implementation. When the driver reads the
  LSR, the UART clears any active receiver error bits in the LSR. This could
  result in the driver losing receiver errors. To avoid any loss of receiver
  errors, the transmit functions also update the driver’s sticky record of the
  cumulative receiver error status whenever they read the LSR.

  @return
    This function returns the UART’s receiver error status as an 8-bit unsigned
    integer. The returned value is 0 if no receiver errors occurred. The driver
    provides a set of bit mask constants that should be compared with and/or
    used to mask the returned value to determine the receiver error status.
    When the return value is compared to the following bit masks, a non-zero
