/*
 * Stream buffers are used to send a continuous stream of data from one task or
 * interrupt to another.  Their implementation is light weight, making them
 * particularly suited for interrupt to task and core to core communication
 * scenarios.
 *
 * ***NOTE***:  Uniquely among FreeRTOS objects, the stream buffer
 * implementation (so also the message buffer implementation, as message buffers
 * are built on top of stream buffers) assumes there is only one task or
 * interrupt that will write to the buffer (the writer), and only one task or
 * interrupt that will read from the buffer (the reader).  It is safe for the
 * writer and reader to be different tasks or interrupts, but, unlike other
 * FreeRTOS objects, it is not safe to have multiple different writers or
 * multiple different readers.  If there are to be multiple different writers
 * then the application writer must place each call to a writing API function
 * (such as xStreamBufferSend()) inside a critical section and set the send
 * block time to 0.  Likewise, if there are to be multiple different readers
 * then the application writer must place each call to a reading API function
 * (such as xStreamBufferReceive()) inside a critical section section and set the
 * receive block time to 0.

 * able to hold at any one time.
 *
 * @param xTriggerLevelBytes The number of bytes that must be in the stream
 * buffer before a task that is blocked on the stream buffer to wait for data is
 * moved out of the blocked state.  For example, if a task is blocked on a read
 * of an empty stream buffer that has a trigger level of 1 then the task will be
 * unblocked when a single byte is written to the buffer or the task's block
 * time expires.  As another example, if a task is blocked on a read of an empty
 * stream buffer that has a trigger level of 10 then the task will not be
 * unblocked until the stream buffer contains at least 10 bytes or the task's
 * block time expires.  If a reading task's block time expires before the
 * trigger level is reached then the task will still receive however many bytes
 * are actually available.  Setting a trigger level of 0 will result in a
 * trigger level of 1 being used.  It is not valid to specify a trigger level
 * that is greater than the buffer size.
 *
 * @param pxSendCompletedCallback Callback invoked when number of bytes at least equal to
 * trigger level is sent to the stream buffer. If the parameter is NULL, it will use the default
 * implementation provided by sbSEND_COMPLETED macro. To enable the callback,

 *
 * @param pxReceiveCompletedCallback Callback invoked when more than zero bytes are read from a
 * stream buffer. If the parameter is NULL, it will use the default
 * implementation provided by sbRECEIVE_COMPLETED macro. To enable the callback,
 * configUSE_SB_COMPLETED_CALLBACK must be set to 1 in FreeRTOSConfig.h.
 *
 * @return If NULL is returned, then the stream buffer cannot be created
 * because there is insufficient heap memory available for FreeRTOS to allocate
 * the stream buffer data structures and storage area.  A non-NULL value being
 * returned indicates that the stream buffer has been created successfully -
 * the returned value should be stored as the handle to the created stream
 * buffer.

 *
 * An interrupt safe version of the API function that receives bytes from a
 * stream buffer.
 *
 * Use xStreamBufferReceive() to read bytes from a stream buffer from a task.
 * Use xStreamBufferReceiveFromISR() to read bytes from a stream buffer from an
 * interrupt service routine (ISR).
 *
 * @param xStreamBuffer The handle of the stream buffer from which a stream
 * is being received.
 *
 * @param pvRxData A pointer to the buffer into which the received bytes are
 * copied.
 *
 * @param xBufferLengthBytes The length of the buffer pointed to by the
 * pvRxData parameter.  This sets the maximum number of bytes to receive in one
 * call.  xStreamBufferReceive will return as many bytes as possible up to a
 * maximum set by xBufferLengthBytes.
 *
 * @param pxHigherPriorityTaskWoken  It is possible that a stream buffer will
 * have a task blocked on it waiting for space to become available.  Calling
 * xStreamBufferReceiveFromISR() can make space available, and so cause a task
 * that is waiting for space to leave the Blocked state.  If calling
 * xStreamBufferReceiveFromISR() causes a task to leave the Blocked state, and
 * the unblocked task has a priority higher than the currently executing task
 * (the task that was interrupted), then, internally,
 * xStreamBufferReceiveFromISR() will set *pxHigherPriorityTaskWoken to pdTRUE.
 * If xStreamBufferReceiveFromISR() sets this value to pdTRUE, then normally a
 * context switch should be performed before the interrupt is exited.  That will
 * ensure the interrupt returns directly to the highest priority Ready state
 * task.  *pxHigherPriorityTaskWoken should be set to pdFALSE before it is
 * passed into the function.  See the code example below for an example.
 *
