Detailed Description

Various types and definitions available to all applications when using SoftDevice.

Macro Definition Documentation

#define ANON_UNIONS_DISABLE   _Pragma("pop")

Macro to disable anonymous unions from a certain point in the code.

Note
Call only after first calling ANON_UNIONS_ENABLE.
#define ANON_UNIONS_ENABLE
Value:
_Pragma("push") \
_Pragma("anon_unions")

Macro to enable anonymous unions from a certain point in the code.

#define CONTROL_nPRIV_Msk   (1UL /*<< CONTROL_nPRIV_Pos*/)

CONTROL: nPRIV Mask

#define CRITICAL_REGION_ENTER ( )    app_util_critical_region_enter(NULL)

Macro for entering a critical region.

Note
Due to implementation details, there must exist one and only one call to CRITICAL_REGION_EXIT() for each call to CRITICAL_REGION_ENTER(), and they must be located in the same scope.
#define CRITICAL_REGION_EXIT ( )    app_util_critical_region_exit(0)

Macro for leaving a critical region.

Note
Due to implementation details, there must exist one and only one call to CRITICAL_REGION_EXIT() for each call to CRITICAL_REGION_ENTER(), and they must be located in the same scope.
#define IPSR_ISR_Msk   (0x1FFUL /*<< IPSR_ISR_Pos*/)

IPSR: ISR Mask

Enumeration Type Documentation

The interrupt priorities available to the application while the SoftDevice is active.

Enumerator
APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_THREAD 

"Interrupt level" when running in Thread Mode.

Function Documentation

static __INLINE uint8_t current_int_priority_get ( void  )
static

Function for finding the current interrupt level.

Returns
Current interrupt level.
Return values
APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_HIGHWe are running in Application High interrupt level.
APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_LOWWe are running in Application Low interrupt level.
APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_THREADWe are running in Thread Mode.

< IPSR: ISR Mask

static __INLINE uint8_t privilege_level_get ( void  )
static

Function for finding out the current privilege level.

Returns
Current privilege level.
Return values
APP_LEVEL_UNPRIVILEGEDWe are running in unprivileged level.
APP_LEVEL_PRIVILEGEDWe are running in privileged level.
