NuttX is a real timed embedded operating system (RTOS).
Its goals are:

< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >
< td > < br > < / td >
< td >
< p >
Usable in all but the tightest micro-controller environments,
The focus is on the tiny-to-small, deeply embedded environment.

< b > Rich Feature OS Set< / b >
< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >
< td > < br > < / td >
< td >
< p >
The goal is to provide implementations of most standard POSIX OS interfaces
to support a rich, multi-threaded development environment for deeply embedded
processors.
< / p >
NON-GOALS: (1) It is not a goal to provide the level of OS features like those provided by Linux.
In order to work with smaller MCUs, small footprint must be more important than an extensive feature set.
But standard compliance is more important than small footprint.
Surely a smaller RTOS could be produced by ignoring standards.
Think of NuttX is a tiny Linux work-alike with a much reduced feature set.
(2) There is no MMU-based support for processes.
At present, NuttX assumes a flat address space.

< b > Highly Scalable< / b >
< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >
< td > < br > < / td >
< td >
< p >
Fully scalable from tiny (8-bit) to moderate embedded (32-bit).
Scalability with rich feature set is accomplished with:
Many tiny source files, link from static libraries, highly configurable, use of
weak symbols when available.

< b > Standards Compliance< / b >
< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >
< td > < br > < / td >
< td >
< p >
NuttX strives to achieve a high degree of standards compliance.
The primary governing standards are POSIX and ANSI standards.
Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOS's are
adopted for functionality not available under these standards
or for functionality that is not appropriate for the deeply-embedded
RTOS (such as < code > fork()< / code > ).
< / p >
< p >
Because of this standards conformance, software developed under other
standard OSs (such as Linux) should port easily to NuttX.

< b > Look at all those files and features... How can it be a tiny OS?< / b > .
The NuttX feature list (above) is fairly long and if you look at the NuttX
source tree, you will see that there are hundreds of source files comprising
NuttX. How can NuttX be a tiny OS with all of that?

< b > Lots of Features -- More can be smaller!< / b >
< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >

< td >
< p >
The philosophy behind that NuttX is that lots of features are great... < i > BUT< / i >
also that if you don't use those features, then you should not have to pay a penalty
for the unused features.
And, with NuttX, you don't! If you don't use a feature, it will not
be included in the final executable binary.
You only have to pay the penalty of increased footprint for the features
that you actually use.
< / p >
< p >
Using a variety of technologies, NuttX can scale from the very tiny to
the moderate-size system. I have executed NuttX with some simple applications
in as little as 32K < i > total< / i > memory (code and data).
On the other hand, typical, richly featured NuttX builds require more like 64K
(and if all of the features are used, this can push 100K).

One may be intimidated by the size NuttX source tree. There are hundreds of source files!
How can that be a tiny OS?
Actually, the large number of files is one of the tricks to keep NuttX small and
as scalable as possible.
Most files contain only a single function.
Sometimes just one tiny function with only a few lines of code.
Why?
< / p >
< ul >
< li >
< b > Static Libraries< / b > .
Because in the NuttX build processed, objects are compiled and saved into
< i > static libraries< / i > (< i > archives< / i > ).
Then, when the file executable is linked, only the object files that are needed
are extracted from the archive and added to the final executable.
By having many, many tiny source files, you can assure that no code that you do
not execute is ever included in the link.
And by having many, tiny source files you have better granularity --
if you don't use that tiny function of even just a few lines of code, it will
not be included in the binary.

< b > Other Tricks< / b >
< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >
< td > < br > < / td >
< td >
< p >
As mentioned above, the use of many, tiny source files and linking from static
libraries keeps the size of NuttX down.
Other tricks used in NuttX include:
< / p >
< ul >
< li >
< b > Configuration Files< / b > .
Before you build NuttX, you must provide a configuration file that specifies
what features you plan to use and which features you do not.
This configuration file contains a long list of settings that control
what is built into NuttX and what is not.
There are hundreds of such settings
(see the < a href = "NuttXPortingGuide.html#apndxconfigs" > NuttX Porting Guide< / a >
for a partial list that excludes platform specific settings).
These many, many configuration options allow NuttX to be highly tuned to
meet size requirements.
The downside to all of these configuration options is that it greatly
complicates the maintenance of NuttX -- but that is my problem, not yours.
< / li >
< li >
< b > Weak Symbols< / b >
The GNU toolchain supports < i > weak< / i > symbols and these also help to keep
the size of NuttX down.
Weak symbols prevent object files from being drawn into the link even if they
are accessed from source code.
Careful use of weak symbols is another trick for keep unused code out of the
final binary.

Basic support is in place for both the LPC3152 MCU and the EA3152 board.

However, because of the high degree of compatibility between the LPC313x and LPC315x family, it
is very likely that the support is in place (or at least very close).
At this point, verification of the EA3152 port has been overcome by events and
may never happen.

Several drivers have been copied from the related LPC17xx port but require integration into the LPC43xx: ADC, DAC, GPDMA, I2C, SPI, and SSP.
The registers for these blocks are the same in both the LPC43xx and the LPC17xx and they should integrate into the LPC43xx very easily by simply adapting the clocking and pin configuration logic.
< / p >
< p >
Other LPC17xx drivers were not brought into the LPC43xx port because these peripherals have been completely redesigned: CAN, Ethernet, USB device, and USB host.
< / p >
< p >
So then there is no support for the following LPC43xx peripherals: SD/MMC, EMC, USB0,USB1, Ethernet, LCD, SCT, Timers 0-3, MCPWM, QEI, Alarm timer, WWDT, RTC, Event monitor, and CAN.
< / p >

Some of these can be leveraged from other MCUs that appear to support the same peripheral IP:

The LPC43xx USB0 peripheral appears to be the same as the USB OTG peripheral for the LPC31xx.
The LPC31xx USB0 device-side driver has been copied from the LPC31xx port but also integration into the LPC43xx (clocking and pin configuration).
It should be possible to complete poriting of this LPC31xx driver with a small porting effort.
< / li >
< li >
The Ethernet block looks to be based on the same IP as the STM32 Ethernet and, as a result, it should be possible to leverage the NuttX STM32 Ethernet driver with a little more effort.

< p > < b > AVR-Specific Issues< / b > .
The basic AVR port is solid and biggest issue for using AVR is its tiny SRAM memory and its Harvard architecture.
Because of the Harvard architecture, constant data that resides to flash is inaccessible using " normal" memory reads and writes (only SRAM data can be accessed " normally" ).
Special AVR instructions are available for accessing data in FLASH, but these have not been integrated into the normal, general purpose OS.
< / p >
< p >
Most NuttX test applications are console-oriented with lots of strings used for printf and debug output.
These strings are all stored in SRAM now due to these data accessing issues and even the smallest console-oriented applications can quickly fill a 4-8K memory.
So, in order for the AVR port to be useful, one of two things would need to be done:
< / p >
< ol >
< li >
Don't use console applications that required lots of strings.
The basic AVR port is solid and your typical deeply embedded application should work fine.
Or,
< / li >
< li >
Create a special version of printf that knows how to access strings that reside in FLASH (or EEPROM).

Current Status: I think I have a hardware problem with my serial port setup.
There is a good chance that the NSH port is complete and functional, but I am not yet able to demonstrate that.
At present, I get nothing coming in the serial RXD line (probably because the pins are configured wrong or I have the MAX232 connected wrong).

The port was verified using the OS and NuttShell (NSH) examples under QEMU.
The port is reported to be functional on the < a href = "http://bifferos.bizhat.com" > Bifferboard< / a > as well.
This is a great, stable starting point for anyone interest in fleshing out the x86 port!

RGMP stands for RTOS and GPOS on Multi-Processor.
RGMP is a project for running GPOS and RTOS simultaneously on multi-processor platforms
You can port your favorite RTOS to RGMP together with an unmodified Linux to form a hybrid operating system.
This makes your application able to use both RTOS and GPOS features.

This initial port of NuttX to RGMP was provided in NuttX-6.3.
This initial RGP port provides only minimal driver support and does not use the native NuttX interrupt system.
This is a great, stable starting point for anyone interest in working with NuttX under RGMP!

The basic port is code complete.
Two configurations are available:
(1) An OS test configuration and a (2) configuration that support the NuttShell (NSH).
The OS test configuration is fully functional and proves that we have a basically healthy NuttX port to the Mirtoo.
The NSH configuration includes support for a serial console and for the SST25 serial FLASH and the PGA117 amplifier/multiplexer on board the module.
The NSH configuration is set up to use the NuttX wear-leveling FLASH file system (NXFFS).
The PGA117, however, is not yet fully integrated to support ADC sampling.
See the < a href = "http://nuttx.sourceforge.net/NuttShell.html" > NSH User Guide< / a > for further information about NSH.
The first verified port to the Mirtoo module was available with the NuttX 6.20 release.

This port is available as of release 0.3.18 of NuttX. The port is basically complete
and many examples run correctly. However, there are remaining instabilities that
make the port un-usable. The nature of these is not understood; the behavior is
that certain SH-1 instructions stop working as advertised. This could be a silicon
problem, some pipeline issue that is not handled properly by the gcc 3.4.5 toolchain
(which has very limit SH-1 support to begin with), or perhaps with the CMON debugger.
At any rate, I have exhausted all of the energy that I am willing to put into this cool

The SDCC compiler provides support for the 8051/2, z80, hc08, and other microcontrollers.

< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >

< td >
< p >
This is a tougher environment.
In this case, the Windows native toolchain is unaware of the
Cygwin < i > sandbox< / i > and, instead, operates in the native Windows environment.
The primary difficulties with this are:
< / p >
< ul >
< li >
< b > Paths< / b > .
Full paths for the native toolchain must follow Windows standards.
For example, the path < code > /home/my\ name/nuttx/include< / code > my have to be
converted to something like < code > 'C:\cygwin\home\my name\nuttx\include'< / code >
to be usable by the toolchain.
< / li >
< p >
Fortunately, this conversion is done simply using the < code > cygpath< / code > utility.
< / p >
< li >
< b > Symbolic Links< / b >
NuttX depends on symbolic links to install platform-specific directories in the build system.
On Linux, true symbolic links are used.
On Cygwin, emulated symbolic links are used.
Unfortunately, for native Windows applications that operate outside of the
Cygwin < i > sandbox< / i > , these symbolic links cannot be used.
< / li >
< p >
The NuttX make system works around this limitation by copying the platform
specific directories in place.
These copied directories make work a little more complex, but otherwise work well.
< / p >
< p > < small >
NOTE: In this environment, it should be possible to use the NTFS < code > mklink< / code > command to create links.
This should only require a minor modification to the build scripts (see < code > tools/winlink.sh< / code > script).
< / small > < / p >
< li >
< b > Dependencies< / b >
NuttX uses the GCC compiler's < code > -M< / code > option to generate make dependencies. These
dependencies are retained in files called < code > Make.deps< / code > throughout the system.
For compilers other than GCC, there is no support for making dependencies in this way.
For Windows native GCC compilers, the generated dependencies are windows paths and not
directly usable in the Cygwin make. By default, dependencies are surpressed for these
compilers as well.
< / li >
< p > < small >
NOTE: dependencies are suppress by setting the make variable < code > MKDEPS< / code > to point
to the do-nothing dependency script, < code > tools/mknulldeps.sh< / code > .
Dependencies can be enabled for the Windows native GCC compilers by setting
< code > MKDEPS< / code > to point to < code > $(TOPDIR)/tools/mkdeps.sh --winpaths $(TOPDIR)< / code > .
< / small > < / p >
< / ul >
< p >
< b > Supported Windows Native Toolchains< / b > .
At present, only the Zilog Z16F, z8Encore, and eZ80Acclaim ports use a non-GCC native Windows
toolchain(the Zilog ZDS-II toolchain).
Support for Windows native GCC toolchains (CodeSourcery and devkitARM) is currently implemented
for the NXP LPC214x, STMicro STR71x, and Luminary LMS6918 ARM ports.
(but could easily be extended to any other GCC-based platform with a small effort).

" I've installed ZDS-II 5.1.1 (IDE for ez80-based boards) on wine (windows emulator for UNIX) and to my surprise, not many changes were needed to make SVN snapshot of NuttX buildable...
I've tried nsh profile and build process completed successfully.
One remark is necessary: NuttX makefiles for ez80 are referencing < code > cygpath< / code > utility.
Wine provides similar thing called < code > winepath< / code > which is compatible and offers compatible syntax.
To use that, < code > winepath< / code > (which itself is a shell script) has to be copied as < code > cygpath< / code > somewhere in < code > $PATH< / code > , and edited as in following patch:

The primary environmental dependency of NuttX are (1) GNU make,
(2) bash scripting, and (3) Linux utilities (such as cat, sed, etc.).
If you have other platforms that support GNU make or make
utilities that are compatible with GNU make, then it is very
likely that NuttX would work in that environment as well (with some
porting effort). If GNU make is not supported, then some significant
modification of the Make system would be required.

< b > GNUWin32< / b > .
For example, with suitable make system changes, it should be possible to
use native GNU tools (such as those from
< a href = "http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32/" > GNUWin32< / a > )
to build NuttX.
However, that environment has not been used as of this writing.

NOTE: One of the members on the < a href = "http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/nuttx/" > NuttX forum< / a >
reported that they successful built NuttX using such a GNUWin32-based, Windows native environment.
They reported that the only necessary change was to the use the NTFS mklink command to create links
(see < code > tools/winlink.sh< / code > script).

nuttx-6.22 2012-09-29 Gregory Nutt < gnutt@nuttx.org>
* include/semaphore.h, sched/sem_holders.c, and lib/semaphore/sem_init.c:
Fix some strange (and probably wrong) list handling when
CONFIG_PRIORITY_INHERITANCE and CONFIG_SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS are defined.
This list handling was probably causing errors reported by Mike Smith
* sched/sched_waitpid.c: Fix a possible issue with logic logic that
should be brought into a critical section (suggested by Mike Smith)
* sched/sched_setuptaskfiles.c: Should be 'struct socket' not
'struct sockets'. How did this compile before? (found by Kate)
* syscall/syscall.csv: Fix prototype for usleep() and prctl() (also
from Kate).
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_ethernet.c: Conditionally elide setting PHY
speed/duplex. This does not work for certain PHYs. Still some unresolved
issues (also from Kate).
* tools/Config.mk, Makefile, configs/*/Make.defs: Add a new Makefile
fragment to de-quote certain strings from the Kconfig logic that
need to be used at path segments (Richard Cochran).
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_usbotghost.c: The STM32 USB host driver only
works with debug turned on. The problem appears to be that with debug
OFF, there are more NAKs occuring in more places than before and this
reveals a variety of errors. This check in improves NAK robustness
for control transfers but does not resolve all of the issues.
* configs/stm3220g-eval/*/defconfig: Calibrated delay loop. It had
never been calibrated was way off.
* sched/sem_holder.c: Add logic to handler some priority inheritance
cases when sem_post() is called from an interrupt handler. The
logic is clearly wrong, but it is not known if this is the
cause of any known bugs.
* lib/stdio/lib_perror(): Add perror(). Contributed by Kate.
* lib/string/lib_strerror(): Add option CONFIG_LIBC_STRERROR that
is now required to enabled strerror(). Add an option
CONFIG_LIBC_STRERROR_SHORT that can be used to output shortened
strings by strerror().
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_usbotghost.c: Finally... the USB OTG FS
appears to handle NAKing correctly.
* configs/stm32f4discovery/*: Added and verifed support for USB OTG FS
host on the STM32F4Discovery board.
* configs/*/defconfig: Remove configuration documentation from config
files. It is redundant, error-prone, and difficult to maintain.
Configuration documentation is available in configs/README.txt for
common configurations and in configs/*/README.txt for board and MCU-
specific configurations.
* configs/stm3240g-eval: Add USB host support.
* sched/os_bring.c, configs/*/defconfig, tools/mkconfig.c, and others: Added
configuration variable CONFIG_USER_ENTRYPOINT that may be used to change
the default entry from user_start to some other symbol. Contributed by
Kate. NOTE: This change does introduce a minor backward incompatibility.
For example, if your application uses NSH as its start-up program, then your
build will now fail because it will be unable to find " user_start" . The fix
for this link failure is to add the following to your configuration file:
CONFIG_USER_ENTRYPOINT=" nsh_main" .
* libs/stdio/lib_libfread.c and lib_*flush*.c: Correct a couple of
error cases where the lib semaphore was not be released on error
exits (thanks Ronen Vainish). Also, improved some error reporting:
the generic ERROR was being used instead of the specific errno
value; the errno variable was not always set correctly.
* tools/mkfsdata.pl: The uIP web server CGI image making perl script was
moved from apps/netutils/webserver/makefsdata to nuttx/tools/mkfsdata.pl
(Part of a larger change submitted by Max Holtzberg).
* configs/stm3240g-eval/script/ld.script: All of the identical ld.script
files for the STM3240G-EVAL were replaced by one version in this directory.
* configs/stm3240g-eval/webserver: Configuration submitted by Max Holtzberg
for testing the changes to the uIP web server (see apps/ChangeLog.txt).
* lib/stdio/lib_perror.c: Remove CONFIG_LIBC_PERROR_DEVNAME. What was I
thinking? Arbitrary streams cannot be shared by different tasks.
* tools/mksyscall.c, csvparser.c, and csvparser.h: Separate CSV parsing
logic from mksyscall.c into files where it can be shared.
* tools/mksymtab.c: Add a tool that can be used to convert a CSV file
into a NuttX-style symbol table.
* sched/work_cancel.c: Fix a bad assertion (reported by Mike Smith)
* configs/stm3210e-eval/src/up_idle.c: Correct some power management
compilation errors (reported by Diego Sanchez).
* include/nuttx/wqueue.h, sched/work*, and others: Added logic to support
a second, lower priority work queue (CONFIG_SCHED_LPWORK).
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_dma.c, chip/stm32*_memorymap.h: FSMC SRAM is
only 16-bits wide and the SDIO DMA must be set up differently.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_dma.c: Back out the 16-bit DMA change. It
is incorrect.
* configs/: Make use of UART4/5 vs USART4/5 consistent in all places.
* Kconfig: Serial 2STOP setting must be integer 0/1, not a boolean.
* lib/misc/sendfile.c and include/sys/sendfile.h: Add a Linux style
sendfile() (non-standard!)
* Kconfig: Refactor serial settings (moved from chip to drivers/serial).
AVR " teensy" now builds with Kconfig (contributed by Richard Cochran).
* Kconfig: Add configuration settings for the LPC17xx
* Kconfig: Add configuration settings for the LM3S (from Richard Cochran).
* Kconfig: Verify configuration settings for the STM32. This includes
changes in the way that the external SRAM is configured: Define
CONFIG_HEAP2_SIZE (decimal) instead of CONFIG_HEAP2_END (hex).
* tools/configure.sh: Don't append the apps directory path setting
if the correct setting is already in defined in the defconfig file.
* fs/fat/fs_utils.c: Improperly constructed bool expression. This
would cause many unnecessary writes to FLASH (Thanks Ronen Vainish).
* Kconfig: Verify configuration settings for the LPC43xx. This includes
some corrections to configuration variable names and defconfig settings.
* Kconfig: Add and verify configuration settings for the LPC31xx.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_uart.h and stm32_serial.c: Add logic to
re-initialize the console UART as needed to enable DMA on the
console UART (contributed by Mike Smith).
* net/recvfrom.c, net/Kconfig, include/nuttx/net/uipopt.h: Remove delay
after receiving data. That has historical reasons to be there (it
was needed before read-ahead buffering was added), but kills performance.
(Noted by Max Holtzberg).
* configs/shenzhou: Add beginnings of a board configuration for the
Shenzhou STM32107 board (see www.armjishu.com). Very little is in
place as of this initial check-in.
* QEMU: Fixes from Richard Cochran to build QEMU with Kconfig files.
* arch/*/src/Makefile: Remove some old logic that was kicked off
when CONFIG_BOOT_RUNFROMFLASH=y. The old logic used to use
objcopy to move sections. Newer logic changes the load position
of sections in the the linker script. As far as I can tell, there
is nothing in the source tree now that depends on the old way of
doing things (if I am wrong, they will need a change to the linker
script).
* configs/fire-stm32v2: Configuration for the M3 Wildfire board. I
don't know very much about this board other than is has an
STM32F103VET6 chip, LCD, touchscreen, and ENC28J60 network. Very
little is in place on the initial check-in.
* configs/shenzhou: Coding for the Shenzhou board port is complete,
but tested has been deferred until I get the right tools.
* arch/arc/include/stm32/chip.h and arch/arm/src/stm32/chip.h:
Add support for the STM32F103VET6.
* fs/fs_fdopen.c: Bad check for failure to allocate memory. (Noted
by Ronen Vainish).
* drivers/mmcsd/mmcsd_sdio.c: If the MMC/SD driver were ever
uninitialized then there would be a double release of memory
(Noted by Ronen Vainish).
* fs/mmap/fs_rammap.c: Fix logic error and errno check (contributed
by Kate).
* arch/avr/src: Fixes from AVR32 build errors that have crept in
over the time; incorporated Kconfig for AVR3 (Richard Cochran).
* fs/fat and include/nuttx/fs/fat.h: The FAT file system allocates
memory for sector I/O buffers used to exchange data with the
configured block driver. In some contexts, the block driver may
require DMA-capable memory. If CONFIG_FAT_DMAMEMORY is defined,
then the FAT FS will use platform-provided DMA memory allocators
to allocate the block driver I/O buffers.
* CONFIG_NET_ENC28J60 renamed CONFIG_ENC28J60 to be consistent
in all places.
* drivers/enc28j60.c, include/nuttx/net/enc28j60.h, and
olimex-strp711/src/up_enc28j60.c: No longer passes IRQ number
as a parameter. Instead now passes a call table to manage
ENC28J60 GPIO interrupts. That is because GPIO interrupts are
handled in different ways by different MCUs and some do not
support IRQ numbers for GPIO interrupts.
* mm/mm_gran* and include/nuttx/gran.h: Add a simple granule-
based allocator. The intent of this allocator is to support
simple allocation of DMA I/O buffers. The initial check-in
is code complete but untested (not event built into the
mm/Makefile yet.
* confgs/fire-stm32v2: The board port is basically functional.
Not all features have been verified. The ENC28J60 network
is not yet functional.
* configs/stm3240g-eval/discover: A configuration for testing
the UDP discovery utility. Contributed by Max Holtzberg.
* mm/README.txt: Add a new README file.
* include/nuttx/usb/usb.h, arch/*/src/*usb.c, and arch/*/src/*otg*.c:
Add hooks to to use common, external DMA buffer allocation
implementation.
* net/recvfrom.c: Don't block in recvfrom if (1) read-ahead buffering
is enabled and (2) some data was obtained from read-ahead buffers.
Blocking is a bad idea in that case because there is no timeout!
(submitted by Max Holtzberg).
* configs/stm3240g-eval/xmlrpc: An example configuration for the
Embeddable Lightweight XML-RPC Server at apps/examples/xmlrpc.
See http://www.drdobbs.com/web-development/\
an-embeddable-lightweight-xml-rpc-server/184405364 for more info.
Contributed by Max Holtzberg.
* configs/*/nxwm/defconfig and sched/task_exithook.c: Fixes for
bugs that crept in during recent changes. (Submitted by Max
Holtzberg).
* arch/arm/include/armv7-m/irq.h: Fix a critical bug in irqsave().
It looks like sometimes the compile will re-order some instructions
inapproapriately. This end result is that interrupts will get
stuck off.
* drivers/mtd/w25.c: Beginning of a driver for the Windbond SPI
FLASH family (W25x16, W25x32, and W25x64). The initial check-in
is basically just the SST25 driver with some name changes.
* arch/arm/include/armv7-m/irq.h and arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_spi.c:
Back out the last change in irq.h. It is (most likely) fine the
way it was. The really interrupt related problem was in stm32_spi.c:
When SPI3 is not enabled, then the irqrestore() falls in the
else clause.
* include/nuttx/compiler.h and other files: Moved always_inline
and noinline __attributes__ here. Also replaced all occurrences
of explicit __atributes__ in other files with definitions from
this header file.
* drivers/mtd/w25.c: The Windbond SPI FLASH W25 FLASH driver is
code complete (but still untested).
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_i2c.c: I2C improvements from Mike Smith.
Unified configuration logic; dynamic timeout calculations;
I2C reset logic to recover from locked devices on the bus.
* configs/*/*/Make.defs, tools/Config.mk, Makefile: Refactor all
common make definitions from the various Make.defs files into
the common tools/Config.mk. Add support for a verbosity options:
Specify V=1 on the make command line in order to see the exact
commands used in the build (Contributed by Richard Cochran).
* drivers/net/enc28j60.c: The ENC28J60 Ethernet driver is
now functional.
* configs/fire-stm32v2: Add support or the fire-stm32v3 board as
well (untested because I do not have a v3 board).
* lib/stdio/lib_sscanf.c: Add %n psuedo-format (from Kate).
* lib/stdio/lib_sscanf.c: There is an issue of handling input
when (1) no fieldwidth is provided and (2) there is no space
seperating the input values. No solutions is in place for this
case now (either space or a fieldwidth must be provided). But
at least some of the bad logic that attempted to handle this
case has been removed (noted by Kate).
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_eth.c: DMA buffer sizes must be an
even multiple of 4, 8, or 16 bytes.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_idle.c: Fixes STM32F107 DMA issues:
We cannot go into sleep mode while Ethernet is actively DMAing.
* configs/shenzhou/src/up_ssd1289.c: Add infrastructure to support
SSD1289 LCD. Initial checkin is just a clone of the
STM32F4Discovery's FSMC-based LCD interface. The Shenzhou
will need a completely need bit-banging interface; this
initial check-in is only for the framework.
* configs/shenzhou/src/up_ssd1289.c: Bit-banging driver is
code complete.
* configs/shenzhou/src/up_lcd.c: Oops. Shenzhou LCD does not
have an SSD1289 controller. Its an ILI93xx. Ported the
STM3240G-EVAL ILI93xx driver to work on the Shenzhou board.
* configs/shenzhou/nxwm: Added an NxWM configuration for the
Shenzhou board. This is untested on initial check-in. It will
be used to verify the Shenzhou LCD driver (and eventually the
touchscreen driver).
* configs/shenzhou/src/up_touchscreen.c: Add ADS7843E touchscreen
support for the Shenzhou board. The initial check-in is untested
and basically a clone of the the touchscreen support for the SAM-3U.
* tools/cfgparser.c: There are some NxWidget configuration
settings that must be de-quoted.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/Kconfig: There is no SPI4. Some platforms
support SPI3 and some do not (still not clear).
* nuttx/configs/shenzhou: Various fixes to build new NxWM
configuration.
* configs/shenzhou: Oops. The Shenzhou LCD is and SSD1289,
not an ILI93xx.
* configs/shenzhou/src/up_ssd1289.c: The LCD is basically functional
on the Shenzhou board.
* graphics/nxmu: Correct some bad parameter checking that caused
failures when DEBUG was enabled.
* arch/arm/src/armv7-m/nvic.h: Add bit definitions for the AIRCR
register.
* drivers/input/ads7843.c: Need semaphore protection in logic
that samples the position.
* drivers/lcd/ssd1289.c: On some platforms we are unable to
read the device ID -- reason unknown; workaround in place.
* drivers/input/ads7843.c: Add thresholding options and an
option to swap X and Y positions. Fix some logic errors in
the SPI locking/selecting logic.
* arch/arm/src/armv7-m/up_systemreset.c: Add logic to reset
the Cortex-Mx using the AIRCR register. Contributed by Darcy
Gong.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/up_eth.c: Add logic specifically for the
DM9161 PHY. If the DM9161 failed to initialize, then use the
up_sysemreset() logic to reset the MCU. Contributed by Darcy
Gong.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_gpio.c: Add missing logic to set bit
for SPI3 remap. This fixes the XPT2046 touchscreen driver using
drivers/input/ads7843.c
* configs/shenzhou/src/up_ssd1289.c: Fix naming error in
conditional compilation.
* configs/shenzhou/nxwm/defconfig: Disable reading from the LCD.
This does not work. The hardware and the driver support the
capability, but there is some bug that causes memory corruption.
The work around for now: Just disable reading from the LCD.
* drivers/lcd/ssd1289.c: Add some logic to reduce the amount of
output when CONFIG_DEBUG_LCD is enabled.
* configs/shenzhou/nxwm/defconfig: Bug found and fixed... The
original configuration had too much stuff turned on. Reducing
stack sizes, some features, and buffer sizes made the
configuration reliable (Reading from the LCD is still disabled).
* net/uip/uip_icmpping.c: Fix problem that prevented ping from
going outside of local network. Submitted by Darcy Gong
apps-6.22 2012-09-29 Gregory Nutt < gnutt@nuttx.org>
* apps/netutils/thttpd/thttpd_cgi.c: Missing NULL in argv[]
list (contributed by Kate).
* apps/nshlib/nsh_parse.c: CONFIG_NSH_DISABLE_WGET not CONFIG_NSH_DISABLE_GET
in one location (found by Kate).
* apps/examples/ostest/prioinherit.c: Limit the number of test
threads to no more than 3 of each priority. Bad things happen
when the existing logic tried to created several hundred test
treads!
* apps/nshlib/nsh.h: Both CONFIG_LIBC_STRERROR and CONFIG_NSH_STRERROR
must be defined to use strerror() with NSH.
* apps/examples/*/*_main.c, system/i2c/i2c_main.c, and others: Added
configuration variable CONFIG_USER_ENTRYPOINT that may be used to change
the default entry from user_start to some other symbol. Contributed by
Kate.
* apps/netutils/webserver/httpd/c: Fix a typo that as introduced in
version r4402: 'lese' instead of 'else' (Noted by Max Holtzberg).
* tools/mkfsdata.pl: The uIP web server CGI image making perl script was
moved from apps/netutils/webserver/makefsdata to nuttx/tools/mkfsdata.pl
(Part of a larger change submitted by Max Holtzberg).
* apps/netutils/webserver, apps/examples/uip, and apps/include/netutils/httpd.h:
The " canned" version of the uIP web servers content that was at
netutils/webserver/httpd_fsdata.c has been replaced with a dynamically
built configuration located at apps/examples/uip (Contributed by
Max Holtzberg).
* apps/netutils/webserver: Several inenhancements from Kate including the
ability to elide scripting and SERVER headers and the ability to map
files into memory before transferring them.
* apps/netutils/webserver: Add ability to map a URL to CGI function.
Contributed by Kate.
* apps/nshlib/nsh_mntcmds.c: The changes of 6.21 introduced holes in the
error handling: Now the number of arguments to mount can be 0 or 4.
Additional parameter checking is required to prevent mysterious errors
(submiteed by Kate).
* apps/netutils/webserver/httpd_mmap.c: Fix errors when the mmap()
length is zero (submitted by Kate).
* apps/netutils/webserver/httpd_sendfile.c: Add and option,
CONFIG_NETUTILS_HTTPD_SENDFILE to transfer files using the NuttX
sendfile() interface.
* apps/netutils/discover: A UDP network discovery utility contributed
by Max Holtzberg.
* apps/examples/discover: A test example for the UDP network discovery
utility (also contribed by Max Holtzberg).
* apps/examples/*/main.c: Too many files called main.c. Each renamed
to something unique so that they will not collide in the archive.
* apps/netutils/xmlrpc: The Embeddable Lightweight XML-RPC Server
discussed at http://www.drdobbs.com/web-development/\
an-embeddable-lightweight-xml-rpc-server/184405364. Contributed by
Max Holtzberg.
* apps/netutils/uip_listenon.c: Logic in uip_server.c that creates
the listening socket was moved to this new file to support re-use.
Contributed by Kate.
* apps/netutils/webserver/httpd.c: The option CONFIG_NETUTILS_HTTPD_SINGLECONNECT
can now be used to limit the server to a single thread. Option
CONFIG_NETUTILS_HTTPD_TIMEOUT can be used to generate HTTP 408 errors.
Both from Kate.
* apps/netutils/webserver/httpd.c: Improvements to HTTP parser from
Kate.
* apps/netutils/webserver/httpd.c: Add support for Keep-alive connections
(from Kate).
* apps/NxWidget/Kconfig: This is a kludge. I created this NxWidgets
directory that ONLY contains Kconfig. NxWidgets does not live in
either the nuttx/ or the apps/ source trees. This kludge makes it
possible to configure NxWidgets/NxWM without too much trouble (with
the tradeoff being a kind ugly structure and some maintenance issues).
* apps/examples/Make.defs: Missing support for apps/examples/watchdog.
* apps/NxWidgets/Kconfig: Add option to turn on the memory monitor
feature of the NxWidgets/NxWM unit tests.
NxWidgets-1.3 2012-09-29 Gregory Nutt < gnutt@nuttx.org>
* UnitTests/*/main.cxx: Change entry point name to be consistent
with with entry point naming conventions introduced in NuttX
6.22.
* Kconfig: Added a mconfig configuration file. Eventually, NxWidgets
needs to get hooked into the NuttX mconf configuration. Still not
exactly sure how to do that.
* libnxwidgets/Makefile and NxWidgets/nxwm/Makefile: Need updates
for consistency with recent changes to NuttX build system (> = 6.22)
* Kconfig: Add option to turn on the memory monitor feature of the
NxWidgets/NxWM unit tests.

pascal-3.0 2011-05-15 Gregory Nutt < gnutt@nuttx.org>
* nuttx/: The Pascal add-on module now installs and builds under the
apps/interpreters directory. This means that the pascal-2.1 module is
incompatible with will all releases of NuttX prior to nuttx-6.0 where the
apps/ module was introduced.
buildroot-1.10 2011-05-06 < gnutt@nuttx.org>
* Add patch submitted by Dimiter Georgiev to work around problems in building
GDB 6.8 with versions of Cygwin > 1.7.
* configs/i486-defconfig-4.3.3 - Builds an i486 cross development toolchain
using gcc 4.3.3. Why wouldyou want such a thing? On Linux, of course,
such a thing is not needed because you can use the installed GCC to build
i486 ELF binaries. But that will not work under Cygwin! The Cygwin
toolchain (and probably MinGW), build DOS MZ format executables (i.e.,
.exe files). That is probably not usable for most NuttX targets.
Instead, you should use this i486-elf-gcc to generate true ELF binaries
under Cygwin.
* Makefile - Alter copy arguments to avoid permissions problems when
copying NuttX header files.
* toolchain/nxflat/nxflat.mk and Makefile - Fix include paths.
* toolchain/gcc/3.3.6 - Added a patch to fixed compilation error on Ubuntu
9.10.
* toolchain/nxflat/Makefile - Correct static library link order.
* configs/arm920t-defconfig-4.3.3 - Enable support for NXFLAT tools.
* toolchain/binutils/2.21 and toolchain/gcc/4.5.2 - Add support for GCC
4.5.2 with binutils 2.21.
* configs/arm920t-eabi-defconfig-4.5.2 - Add a configuration to build a
GCC 4.5.2 EABI ARM toolchain for the ARM920t.
