UART async API with fifo / workqueue

[sleeper]

Hi

I'm using the UART async API and want to pass the received data to a fifo or workqueue to them process this received data.

There does not seem to be any examples of doing this with the async API, so where can i find something ?

What needs to be changed ?

From the top of my head, the include paths is wrong. I would recommend comparing them to one of the examples I have linked you. In NCS 2.0 Zephyr 3.0 was introduced and with it:  

"All Zephyr public headers have been moved to include/zephyr, meaning they must be prefixed with <zephyr/...> when included. Because this change can potentially break many applications or libraries, CONFIG_LEGACY_INCLUDE_PATH is provided to allow using the old include path."

You might be lucky and that is the only thing you have to care about.

this is my code, it seems to work, can you check to see if you think i'm missing anything ?

Hi, 

It looks fine to me other then I can't see that you are calling your init functions anywhere.

gnss_init() is called from C main.
