to the preceding `read()` or `peek()` call, and is undefined if they report

## Checking for correct pin selection / configuration
In general, most pins on the ESP8266 and ESP32 devices can be used by EspSoftwareSerial,
however each device has a number of pins that have special functions or require careful
handling to prevent undesirable situations, for example they are connected to the
on-board SPI flash memory or they are used to determine boot and programming modes
after powerup or brownouts. These pins are not able to be configured by this library.
The exact list for each device can be found in the
[ESP32 data sheet](https://www.espressif.com/sites/default/files/documentation/esp32_datasheet_en.pdf)
in sections 2.2 (Pin Descriptions) and 2.4 (Strapping pins). There is a discussion
dedicated to the use of GPIO12 in this
[note about GPIO12](https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tree/release/v3.2/examples/storage/sd_card#note-about-gpio12).
Refer to the `isValidPin()`, `isValidRxPin()` and `isValidTxPin()`
functions in the `EspSoftwareSerial::GpioCapabilities` class for the GPIO restrictions
enforced by this library by default.
The easiest and safest method is to test the object returned at runtime, to see if
it is valid. For example:
```
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
#define MYPORT_TX 12
#define MYPORT_RX 13
EspSoftwareSerial::UART myPort;
[...]
Serial.begin(115200); // Standard hardware serial port
myPort.begin(38400, SWSERIAL_8N1, MYPORT_RX, MYPORT_TX, false);
if (!myPort) { // If the object did not initialize, then its configuration is invalid
Serial.println("Invalid EspSoftwareSerial pin configuration, check config");
while (1) { // Don't continue with invalid configuration
delay (1000);
}
}
[...]
```
