Serializer

This program served as an exercise in concurrent data serialization and deserialization.

Task Description

The objective of this task is to implement a basic serializer capable of serializing and deserializing three types of data: uint8_t, uint16_t, and uint32_t. The process involves two threads: one responsible for serializing the defined structure into a buffer and storing it as an element of a container, and another thread responsible for reading elements from the same container and deserializing the data.

Key points

• Ensure synchronization through locking mechanisms to prevent memory access violations and leaks, thereby avoiding unexpected crashes.
• Maintain FIFO (First-In-First-Out) order during reading.
• Optimize for memory usage.

Defined structures and macros

#define MAX_DATA_LEN 10

struct data {
	uint32_t id;
	uint16_t data_length;
	uint8_t data[MAX_DATA_LEN];
};
