psp-uart-library

About

This is the source for the psp-uart-library. It is designed to simplify communication with the PlayStation Portable's UART hardware for serial I/O.

Building

All that is required to build is the PSPSDK. Run make in the root directory to build the libpspuart.a binary.

When including this library be sure to also include -lpsphprm_driver.

For examle LIBS = ./libs/libpspuart.a -lpsphprm_driver.

Building as a PRX

Currently this library is configured as an Archive (.a) but it can be compiled into a standalone PRX which could be imported into a user mode EBOOT. Note an exports.exp has already been provided and configured.

To do so follow these steps:

• Add the following to main.c

PSP_MODULE_INFO("pspUART", 0x1006, 1, 1);
PSP_NO_CREATE_MAIN_THREAD();

int module_start(SceSize args, void *argp) {
    return 0;
}

int module_stop(void) {
    return 0;
}

• Comment out alib = libpspuart.a in the makefile
• Comment out option -mno-crt0 in the LDFLAGS section of the makefile

A PRX will now be generated which can be imported using KUBridge for example.

Usage

See the header file for a list of functions to interface with the UART hardware.

Extra Credits

psp-uart-library is a fork of DavisDev's SioDriver library, designed to be cleaner and more concise. The following are the extra credits listed under the SioDriver source header.

• Tyranid - SIO based on psplink

• Jean - initial SIO driver
