name |
name of the pin | ||
dir |
The direction of the pin, from the viewpoint of the component. It may be one of HAL_IN, HAL_OUT, or HAL_IO. Any number of HAL_IN or HAL_IO pins may be connected to the same signal, but at most one HAL_OUT pin is permitted. A component may assign a value to a pin that is HAL_OUT or HAL_IO, but may not assign a value to a pin that is HAL_IN. |
data_ptr_addr
The address of the pointer-to-data, which must lie within memory allocated by hal_malloc.
comp_id
HAL component identifier returned by an earlier call to hal_init.
fmt,
printf-style format string and arguments
type
The type of the param, as specified in
hal_type_t(3hal).
The hal_pin_new family of functions create a new pin object. Once a pin has been created, it can be linked to a signal object using hal_link. A pin contains a pointer, and the component that owns the pin can dereference the pointer to access whatever signal is linked to the pin. (If no signal is linked, it points to a dummy signal.)
There are functions for each of the data types that the HAL supports. Pins may only be linked to signals of the same type.
Returns 0 on success, or a negative errno value on failure.
