    size_t xStreamBufferSendFromISR( StreamBufferHandle_t xStreamBuffer,
                                     const void *pvTxData,
                                     size_t xDataLengthBytes,

       Interrupt safe version of the API function that sends a stream of bytes to
       the stream buffer.

       ***NOTE***:  Uniquely among FreeRTOS objects, the stream buffer
       implementation (so also the message buffer implementation, as message buffers
       are built on top of stream buffers) assumes there is only one task or
       interrupt that will write to the buffer (the writer), and only one task or
       interrupt that will read from the buffer (the reader).  It is safe for the
       writer and reader to be different tasks or interrupts, but, unlike other
       FreeRTOS objects, it is not safe to have multiple different writers or
       multiple different readers.  If there are to be multiple different writers
       then the application writer must place each call to a writing API function
       (such as xStreamBufferSend()) inside a critical section and set the send
       block time to 0.  Likewise, if there are to be multiple different readers
       then the application writer must place each call to a reading API function
       (such as xStreamBufferRead()) inside a critical section and set the receive
       block time to 0.

       Use xStreamBufferSend() to write to a stream buffer from a task.  Use
       xStreamBufferSendFromISR() to write to a stream buffer from an interrupt
       service routine (ISR).

    Parameters

        xStreamBufferThe handle of the stream buffer to which a stream is
       being sent.
        pvTxDataA pointer to the data that is to be copied into the stream
       buffer.
        xDataLengthBytesThe maximum number of bytes to copy from pvTxData
       into the stream buffer.
        pxHigherPriorityTaskWokenIt is possible that a stream buffer will
       have a task blocked on it waiting for data.  Calling
       xStreamBufferSendFromISR() can make data available, and so cause a task that
       was waiting for data to leave the Blocked state.  If calling
       xStreamBufferSendFromISR() causes a task to leave the Blocked state, and the
       unblocked task has a priority higher than the currently executing task (the
       task that was interrupted), then, internally, xStreamBufferSendFromISR()
       will set *pxHigherPriorityTaskWoken to pdTRUE.  If
       xStreamBufferSendFromISR() sets this value to pdTRUE, then normally a
       context switch should be performed before the interrupt is exited.  This will
       ensure that the interrupt returns directly to the highest priority Ready
       state task.  *pxHigherPriorityTaskWoken should be set to pdFALSE before it
       is passed into the function.  See the example code below for an example.

    ReturnsThe number of bytes actually written to the stream buffer, which will
       be less than xDataLengthBytes if the stream buffer didn't have enough free
       space for all the bytes to be written.
    Example use:

    // A stream buffer that has already been created.
    StreamBufferHandle_t xStreamBuffer;

    void vAnInterruptServiceRoutine( void )
    {
    size_t xBytesSent;
    char *pcStringToSend = "String to send";
    BaseType_t xHigherPriorityTaskWoken = pdFALSE; // Initialised to pdFALSE.

        // Attempt to send the string to the stream buffer.
        xBytesSent = xStreamBufferSendFromISR( xStreamBuffer,
                                               ( void * ) pcStringToSend,
                                               strlen( pcStringToSend ),
                                               &xHigherPriorityTaskWoken );

        if( xBytesSent != strlen( pcStringToSend ) )
        {
            // There was not enough free space in the stream buffer for the entire
            // string to be written, ut xBytesSent bytes were written.
        }

        // If xHigherPriorityTaskWoken was set to pdTRUE inside
        // xStreamBufferSendFromISR() then a task that has a priority above the
        // priority of the currently executing task was unblocked and a context
        // switch should be performed to ensure the ISR returns to the unblocked
        // task.  In most FreeRTOS ports this is done by simply passing
        // xHigherPriorityTaskWoken into taskYIELD_FROM_ISR(), which will test the
        // variables value, and perform the context switch if necessary.  Check the
        // documentation for the port in use for port specific instructions.
        taskYIELD_FROM_ISR( xHigherPriorityTaskWoken );
    }
