prog_uint8_t (3avr)

#include <avr/io.h>
#include <avr/pgmspace.h>

The functions in this module provide interfaces for a program to access data stored in program space (flash memory) of the device. In order to use these functions, the target device must support either the LPM or ELPM instructions.

Note:

These functions are an attempt to provide some compatibility with header files that come with IAR C, to make porting applications between different compilers easier. This is not 100% compatibility though (GCC does not have full support for multiple address spaces yet).

If you are working with strings which are completely based in ram, use the standard string functions described in <string.h>: Strings.

If possible, put your constant tables in the lower 64 KB and use pgm_read_byte_near() or pgm_read_word_near() instead of pgm_read_byte_far() or pgm_read_word_far() since it is more efficient that way, and you can still use the upper 64K for executable code. All functions that are suffixed with a _P require their arguments to be in the lower 64 KB of the flash ROM, as they do not use ELPM instructions. This is normally not a big concern as the linker setup arranges any program space constants declared using the macros from this header file so they are placed right after the interrupt vectors, and in front of any executable code. However, it can become a problem if there are too many of these constants, or for bootloaders on devices with more than 64 KB of ROM. All these functions will not work in that situation.

For Xmega devices, make sure the NVM controller command register (NVM.CMD or NVM_CMD) is set to 0x00 (NOP) before using any of these functions.

int memcmp_PF (const void *s1, \fBuint_farptr_t\fPs2, size_tlen)

Compare memory areas. The memcmp_PF() function compares the first len bytes of the memory areas s1 and flash s2. The comparision is performed using unsigned char operations.

Parameters:

dst A pointer to the destination string in SRAM

src A far pointer to the source string in Flash

n The total number of bytes allocated to the destination string

Returns:

The strlcat_PF() function returns strlen(src) + MIN(n, strlen(initial dst)). If retval >= n, truncation occurred. The contents of RAMPZ SFR are undefined when the funcion returns

size_t strlcpy_PF (char *dst, \fBuint_farptr_t\fPsrc, size_tsiz)

s1 A pointer to a string in SRAM

s2 A far pointer to a string in Flash

n The maximum number of bytes to compare

Returns:

The strncasecmp_PF() function returns an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if s1 (or the first n bytes thereof) is found, respectively, to be less than, to match, or be greater than s2. The contents of RAMPZ SFR are undefined when the function returns

char * strncat_PF (char *dst, \fBuint_farptr_t\fPsrc, size_tn)

Concatenate two strings. The strncat_PF() function is similar to strncat(), except that the src string must be located in program space (flash) and is addressed using a far pointer

Duplicate a string until a limited length. The strncpy_PF() function is similar to strcpy_PF() except that not more than n bytes of src are copied. Thus, if there is no null byte among the first n bytes of src, the result will not be null-terminated

In the case where the length of src is less than that of n, the remainder of dst will be padded with nulls

Parameters:

dst A pointer to the destination string in SRAM

src A far pointer to the source string in Flash

n The maximum number of bytes to copy

Returns:

The strncpy_PF() function returns a pointer to the destination string dst. The contents of RAMPZ SFR are undefined when the function returns

size_t strnlen_PF (\fBuint_farptr_t\fPs, size_tlen)

Determine the length of a fixed-size string. The strnlen_PF() function is similar to strnlen(), except that s is a far pointer to a string in program space

Parameters:

s A far pointer to the string in Flash

len The maximum number of length to return

Returns:

The strnlen_PF function returns strlen_P(s), if that is less than len, or len if there is no '\0' character among the first len characters pointed to by s. The contents of RAMPZ SFR are undefined when the function returns

char * strstr_PF (const char *s1, \fBuint_farptr_t\fPs2)

Locate a substring. The strstr_PF() function finds the first occurrence of the substring s2 in the string s1. The terminating '\0' characters are not compared. The strstr_PF() function is similar to strstr() except that s2 is a far pointer to a string in program space.

Returns:

The strstr_PF() function returns a pointer to the beginning of the substring, or NULL if the substring is not found. If s2 points to a string of zero length, the function returns s1. The contents of RAMPZ SFR are undefined when the function returns

char* strtok_P (char *s, \fBPGM_P\fPdelim)

Parses the string into tokens. strtok_P() parses the string s into tokens. The first call to strtok_P() should have s as its first argument. Subsequent calls should have the first argument set to NULL. If a token ends with a delimiter, this delimiting character is overwritten with a '\0' and a pointer to the next character is saved for the next call to strtok_P(). The delimiter string delim may be different for each call.

The strtok_P() function is similar to strtok() except that delim is pointer to a string in program space.

Returns:

The strtok_P() function returns a pointer to the next token or NULL when no more tokens are found.

Note:

strtok_P() is NOT reentrant. For a reentrant version of this function see strtok_rP().
