You can get the number of bytes available to read with the
CYG_IO_GET_CONFIG_SERIAL_BUFFER_INFO key to cyg_io_get_config(). Or you can
set the driver to non-blocking mode which will always only return the
number of bytes available.

The generic level part of the serial driver system is at
io/serial/current/src/common/serial.c
The hardware specific portion is at devs/serial/arm/sa11x0/current/src/
