Data Packet Format

┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│Field                       Length     C Datatype  │
├───────────────────────────────────────────────────┤

Returns

If the call is made with an invalid Parameter Packet pointer and a general failure error is reported, this function is not performed and valid information is not returned in the Data Packet.

Remarks

If a general failure is not returned, then the physical device driver stops generating a break signal. It is not considered an error if the physical device driver is not generating a break signal. The physical device driver then resumes transmitting characters, taking into account all the other reasons why characters might be transmitted.
