As is,
needsHardReset
is never set byreadLine
.If reads are failing, when
attempt
is finally zero and causes thewhile
loop to exit, it is also post-decremented and becomes 255 (since it is unsigned). Hence the condition to setneedsHardReset
is never met.In fact, the condition
attempts<=0
is true only when the last read attempt actually succeeded. In this case,attempt
was 1 and is decremented to 0 before the final call toreadBytesUntil
returns read>0. Thewhile
loop exits because!read
is false and the value ofattempt
remains at 0, unchanged, because of short-circuited&&
.Use https://godbolt.org/z/000v_I as a playground to prove this to yourself.
The solution is to ignore
attempts
after the loop. It did its job already. The important question is whetherread
is zero or not. If so, we need to reset the module.
