boards/mips/pic32mx/ubw32 README ==================== This README file discusses the port of NuttX to the Sparkfun UBW32 board. This port uses the original v2.5 board which is based on the MicroChip PIC32MX460F512L. See http://www.sparkfun.com/products/8971. This older version has been replaced with this board http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9713. See also http://www.schmalzhaus.com/UBW32/.

The mapping to the pins on the PCL Logic board are very simple, each pin is brought out to a connector label with the PIC32MX460F512L pin number. On board logic only manages power, crystal, and USB signals.

I am using the Windows version. The MicroChip toolchain is the only toolchain currently supported in these configurations, but it should be a simple matter to adapt to other toolchains by modifying the Make.defs file include in each configuration. C32 Toolchain Options: CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW - MicroChip full toolchain for Windows CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPL - MicroChip full toolchain for Linux CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW_LITE - MicroChip "Lite" toolchain for Windows CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPL_LITE - MicroChip "Lite" toolchain for Linux CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_PINGUINOL - Pinquino toolchain for Linux CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_PINGUINOW - Pinquino toolchain for Windows CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPOPENL - Microchip open toolchain for Linux CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_ELF - General mips-elf toolchain for Linux NOTE: The "Lite" versions of the toolchain does not support C++. Also certain optimization levels are not supported by the "Lite" toolchain. MicrochipOpen ------------- An alternative, build-it-yourself toolchain is available here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/microchipopen/ . These tools were last updated circa 2010. NOTE: C++ support still not available in this toolchain. Building MicrochipOpen (on Linux) 1) Get the build script from this location: http://microchipopen.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/microchipopen/ccompiler4pic32/buildscripts/trunk/ 2) Build the code using the build script, for example: ./build.sh -b v105_freeze This will check out the selected branch and build the tools. 3) Binaries will then be available in a subdirectory with a name something like pic32-v105-freeze-20120622/install-image/bin (depending on the current data and the branch that you selected. Note that the tools will have the prefix, mypic32- so, for example, the compiler will be called mypic32-gcc. Pinguino mips-elf Toolchain --------------------------- Another option is the mips-elf toolchain used with the Pinguino project. This is a relatively current mips-elf GCC and should provide free C++ support as well. This toolchain can be downloaded from the Pinguino website: http://wiki.pinguino.cc/index.php/Main_Page#Download . See also boards/mirtoo/README.txt. There is an experimental (untested) configuration for the Mirtoo platform in that directory. MPLAB/C32 vs MPLABX/X32 ----------------------- It appears that Microchip is phasing out the MPLAB/C32 toolchain and replacing it with MPLABX and XC32. At present, the XC32 toolchain is *not* compatible with the NuttX build scripts. Here are some of the issues that I see when trying to build with XC32: 1) Make.def changes: You have to change the tool prefix: -CROSSDEV=pic32- +CROSSDEV=xc32- 2) debug.ld/release.ld: The like expect some things that are not present in the current linker scripts (or are expected with different names). Here are some partial fixes: Rename: kseg0_progmem to kseg0_program_mem Rename: kseg1_datamem to kseg1_data_mem Even then, there are more warnings from the linker and some undefined symbols for non-NuttX code that resides in the unused Microchip libraries. You will have to solve at least this undefined symbol problem if you want to used the XC32 toolchain. Windows Native Toolchains ------------------------- NOTE: There are several limitations to using a Windows based toolchain in a Cygwin environment. The three biggest are: 1. The Windows toolchain cannot follow Cygwin paths. Path conversions are performed automatically in the Cygwin makefiles using the 'cygpath' utility but you might easily find some new path problems. If so, check out 'cygpath -w' 2. Windows toolchains cannot follow Cygwin symbolic links. Many symbolic links are used in Nuttx (e.g., include/arch). The make system works around these problems for the Windows tools by copying directories instead of linking them. But this can also cause some confusion for you: For example, you may edit a file in a "linked" directory and find that your changes had no effect. That is because you are building the copy of the file in the "fake" symbolic directory. If you use a Windows toolchain, you should get in the habit of making like this: make clean_context all An alias in your .bashrc file might make that less painful. Loading NuttX with PICkit2 ========================== NOTE: You need a PICKit3 if you plan to use the MPLAB debugger! The PICKit2 can, however, still be used to load programs. Instructions for the PICKit3 are similar. Intel Hex Forma Files: ---------------------- When NuttX is built it will produce two files in the top-level NuttX directory: 1) nuttx - This is an ELF file, and 2) nuttx.hex - This is an Intel Hex format file. This is controlled by the setting CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY in the .config file. The PICkit tool wants an Intel Hex format file to burn into FLASH. However, there is a problem with the generated nutt.hex: The tool expects the nuttx.hex file to contain physical addresses. But the nuttx.hex file generated from the top-level make will have address in the KSEG0 and KSEG1 regions. tools/pic32/mkpichex: ---------------------- There is a simple tool in the NuttX tools/pic32 directory that can be used to solve both issues with the nuttx.hex file. But, first, you must build the tool: cd tools/pic32 make -f Makefile.host Now you will have an executable file call mkpichex (or mkpichex.exe on Cygwin). This program will take the nutt.hex file as an input, it will convert all of the KSEG0 and KSEG1 addresses to physical address, and it will write the modified file, replacing the original nuttx.hex. To use this file, you need to do the following things: export PATH =??? # Add the NuttX tools/pic32 directory to your # PATH variable make # Build nuttx and nuttx.hex mkpichex $PWD # Convert addresses in nuttx.hex. $PWD is the path # to the top-level build directory. It is the only # required input to mkpichex. This procedure is automatically performed at the end of a build.
