UART Functions
Functions for UART hardware. Like SPI & I2C actual communications can be handled with a transaction, but there is also direct read and write available as serial comms across UARTs is not always transaction based.
uint32_t librpipUartConfigWrite(uint32_t id, uint32_t baud, uint32_t csize, uint32_t parity, uint32_t stop, uint32_t mode);
uint32_t librpipUartConfigRead(uint32_t id, uint32_t* baud, uint32_t* csize, uint32_t* parity, uint32_t* stop, uint32_t* mode);
