this function is part of the hal device driver for the uart (please correct me if i am wrong).
to access files or character-mode devices you should use the newlib functions or the unix-style interface provided by the hal.
refer to "nios ii software developer's handbook" and "altera embedded peripherals handbook" for more information.
