Board-Specific Configurations
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The NuttX configuration consists of:
o Processor architecture specific files. These are the files contained
in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory.
o Chip/SoC specific files. Each processor processor architecture
is embedded in chip or System-on-a-Chip (SoC) architecture. The
full chip architecture includes the processor architecture plus
chip-specific interrupt logic, general purpose I/O (GIO) logic, and
specialized, internal peripherals (such as UARTs, USB, etc.).
These chip-specific files are contained within chip-specific
sub-directories in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory and are selected
via the CONFIG_ARCH_name selection
o Board specific files. In order to be usable, the chip must be
contained in a board environment. The board configuration defines
additional properties of the board including such things as
peripheral LEDs, external peripherals (such as network, USB, etc.).
These board-specific configuration files can be found in the
configs/<board-name>/ sub-directories and are discussed in this
README. Additional configuration information maybe available in
board-specific configs/<board-name>/README.txt files.
The configs/ subdirectory contains configuration data for each board. These
board-specific configurations plus the architecture-specific configurations in
the arch/ subdirectory completely define a customized port of NuttX.
Directory Structure
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The configs directory contains board specific configurationlogic. Each
board must provide a subdirectory <board-name> under configs/ with the
following characteristics:
<board-name>
|-- include/
| `-- (board-specific header files)
|-- src/
| |-- Makefile
| `-- (board-specific source files)
|-- <config1-dir>
| |-- Make.defs
| |-- defconfig
| `-- setenv.sh
|-- <config2-dir>
| |-- Make.defs
| |-- defconfig
| `-- setenv.sh
...
Summary of Files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
include/ -- This directory contains board specific header files. This
directory will be linked as include/arch/board at configuration time and
can be included via '#include <arch/board/header.h>'. These header file
can only be included by files in arch/<arch-name>include/ and
arch/<arch-name>/src
src/ -- This directory contains board specific drivers. This
directory will be linked as arch/<arch-name>/src/board at configuration
time and will be integrated into the build system.
src/Makefile -- This makefile will be invoked to build the board specific
drivers. It must support the following targets: libext$(LIBEXT), clean,
and distclean.
A board may have various different configurations using these common source
files. Each board configuration is described by three files: Make.defs,
defconfig, and setenv.sh. Typically, each set of configuration files is
retained in a separate configuration sub-directory (<config1-dir>,
<config2-dir>, .. in the above diagram).
Make.defs -- This makefile fragment provides architecture and
tool-specific build options. It will be included by all other
makefiles in the build (once it is installed). This make fragment
should define:
Tools: CC, LD, AR, NM, OBJCOPY, OBJDUMP
Tool options: CFLAGS, LDFLAGS
COMPILE, ASSEMBLE, ARCHIVE, CLEAN, and MKDEP macros
When this makefile fragment runs, it will be passed TOPDIR which
is the path to the root directory of the build. This makefile
fragment may include ${TOPDIR}/.config to perform configuration
specific settings. For example, the CFLAGS will most likely be
different if CONFIG_DEBUG=y.
defconfig -- This is a configuration file similar to the Linux
configuration file. In contains variable/value pairs like:
CONFIG_VARIABLE=value
This configuration file will be used at build time:
(1) as a makefile fragment included in other makefiles, and
(2) to generate include/nuttx/config.h which is included by
most C files in the system.
The following variables are recognized by the build (you may
also include architecture/board-specific settings).
Architecture selection:
CONFIG_ARCH - Identifies the arch/ subdirectory
CONFIG_ARCH_name - For use in C code
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP - Identifies the arch/*/chip subdirectory

handle and enables the API mm_addregion(start, end);
CONFIG_TICKS_PER_MSEC - The default system timer is 100Hz
or TICKS_PER_MSEC=10. This setting may be defined to
inform NuttX that the processor hardware is providing
system timer interrupts at some interrupt interval other
than 10 msec.

CONFIG_GREGORIAN_TIME - Enables Gregorian time conversions.
You would only need this if you are concerned about accurate
time conversions in the past or in the distant future.
CONFIG_JULIAN_TIME - Enables Julian time conversions. You
would only need this if you are concerned about accurate
time conversion in the distand past. You must also define
CONFIG_GREGORIAN_TIME in order to use Julian time.
CONFIG_DEV_CONSOLE - Set if architecture-specific logic
provides /dev/console. Enables stdout, stderr, stdin.
CONFIG_MUTEX_TYPES - Set to enable support for recursive and
errorcheck mutexes. Enables pthread_mutexattr_settype().

priority inheritance on mutexes and semaphores.
CONFIG_SEM_PREALLOCHOLDERS: This setting is only used if priority
inheritance is enabled. It defines the maximum number of
different threads (minus one) that can take counts on a
semaphore with priority inheritance support. This may be
set to zero if priority inheritance is disabled OR if you
are only using semaphores as mutexes (only one holder) OR
if no more than two threads participate using a counting
semaphore.
CONFIG_SEM_NNESTPRIO. If priority inheritance is enabled,
then this setting is the maximum number of higher priority
threads (minus 1) than can be waiting for another thread
to release a count on a semaphore. This value may be set
to zero if no more than one thread is expected to wait for
a semaphore.
CONFIG_FDCLONE_DISABLE. Disable cloning of all file descriptors
by task_create() when a new task is started. If set, all
files/drivers will appear to be closed in the new task.
CONFIG_FDCLONE_STDIO. Disable cloning of all but the first

This format will support execution of NuttX binaries located
in a ROMFS filesystem (see examples/nxflat).
The following can be used to disable categories of APIs supported
by the OS. If the compiler supports weak functions, then it
should not be necessary to disable functions unless you want to
restrict usage of those APIs.
There are certain dependency relationships in these features.
o mq_notify logic depends on signals to awaken tasks
waiting for queues to become full or empty.
o pthread_condtimedwait() depends on signals to wake
up waiting tasks.
CONFIG_DISABLE_CLOCK, CONFIG_DISABLE_POSIX_TIMERS, CONFIG_DISABLE_PTHREAD.

pattern will be executed. In fact, if this value is not defined
then no CGI logic will be built.
CONFIG_THTTPD_CGI_PRIORITY - Provides the priority of CGI child tasks
CONFIG_THTTPD_CGI_STACKSIZE - Provides the initial stack size of
CGI child task (will be overridden by the stack size in the NXFLAT
header)
CONFIG_THTTPD_CGI_BYTECOUNT - Byte output limit for CGI tasks.
CONFIG_THTTPD_CGI_TIMELIMIT - How many seconds to allow CGI programs
to run before killing them.
CONFIG_THTTPD_CHARSET- The default character set name to use with
text MIME types.
CONFIG_THTTPD_IOBUFFERSIZE -
CONFIG_THTTPD_INDEX_NAMES - A list of index filenames to check. The
files are searched for in this order.
CONFIG_AUTH_FILE - The file to use for authentication. If this is
defined then thttpd checks for this file in the local directory
before every fetch. If the file exists then authentication is done,
otherwise the fetch proceeds as usual. If you leave this undefined
then thttpd will not implement authentication at all and will not
check for auth files, which saves a bit of CPU time. A typical
value is ".htpasswd"
CONFIG_THTTPD_LISTEN_BACKLOG - The listen() backlog queue length.
CONFIG_THTTPD_LINGER_MSEC - How many milliseconds to leave a connection
open while doing a lingering close.

CONFIG_THTTPD_IDLE_SEND_LIMIT_SEC - How many seconds before an
idle connection gets closed.
CONFIG_THTTPD_TILDE_MAP1 and CONFIG_THTTPD_TILDE_MAP2 - Tilde mapping.
Many URLs use ~username to indicate a user's home directory. thttpd
provides two options for mapping this construct to an actual filename.
1) Map ~username to <prefix>/username. This is the recommended choice.
Each user gets a subdirectory in the main web tree, and the tilde
construct points there. The prefix could be something like "users",
or it could be empty.
2) Map ~username to <user's homedir>/<postfix>. The postfix would be
the name of a subdirectory off of the user's actual home dir,
something like "public_html".
You can also leave both options undefined, and thttpd will not do
anything special about tildes. Enabling both options is an error.
Typical values, if they're defined, are "users" for
CONFIG_THTTPD_TILDE_MAP1 and "public_html"forCONFIG_THTTPD_TILDE_MAP2.

Configuring NuttX
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Configuring NuttX requires only copying
configs/<board-name>/<config-dir>/Make.def to ${TOPDIR}/Make.defs
configs/<board-name>/<config-dir>/setenv.sh to ${TOPDIR}/setenv.sh
configs/<board-name>/<config-dir>/defconfig to ${TOPDIR}/.config
tools/configure.sh
There is a script that automates these steps. The following steps will
