uart_read_bytes timeout problem
Posted: Thu Oct 15, 2020 5:25 pm
Hello
I found a strange behavior on uart_read_bytes. I am using IDF 3.3.2 but tried on the IDF 4.1 and got the same result.
When I pass the timeout as 0 if thereis anything on the receiver buffer it reads it and immediately returns (0.040ms) what is correct, but when I pass any other timeout if there is anything on the receiver buffer it takes almost 9ms to return.
If there is nothing on the receiver buffer the timeout works correctly.
Am I missing something?
The following code demonstrate that
