Description

I'm trying to use the new feature of v2.0.3

After setting TX buffer size with HardwareSerial::setTxBufferSize the function HardwareSerial::availableForWrite still always return 128 keeping track only of the free space in the TxFIFO without accounting of the newly allocated buffer for transmission

Sketch

#define NO_GLOBAL_SERIAL
#include <Arduino.h>

HardwareSerial SerialTest{1};

void setup(){
  SerialTest.setRxBufferSize(4096);
  SerialTest.setTxBufferSize(4096);
  SerialTest.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
  log_e("availableForWrite:\t%d\n", SerialTest.availableForWrite());
}

Debug Message

availableForWrite: 128
availableForWrite: 128
availableForWrite: 128
availableForWrite: 128
availableForWrite: 128
availableForWrite: 128
....

@imwhocodes - Issue confirmed. Along the changes this fuction was left behind.
availableForWrite() only looks into the FIFO space. It has to be updated/fixed.

Thanks for reporting. I'll set a PR to fix it.

I just looked into the code.... there is a big problem.
IDF has no function to get the left space in TX Ring Buffer associated to setTxBufferSize(size).
The Ring Buffer is created by IDF, but it can't be read, neither accessed.

I'll investigate it further, but it looks like there is no way to fix it at this time.
