This README discusses issues unique to NuttX configurations for the STMicro
|
|
STM32F100RC generic board. This "generic" configuration is not very usable
|
|
out-of-box, but can be used as a starting point to creating new configs with
|
|
similar STM32 high-density value line chips. As a bare-minimum this config only
|
|
specifies one LED (on PA0) and one button (on PA1), you should change that to
|
|
match your hardware (some details below and in source files).

Development Environment
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Either Linux or Cygwin on Windows can be used for the development environment.
|
|
The source has been built only using the GNU toolchain (see below). Other
|
|
toolchains will likely cause problems.
|
|
|
|
GNU Toolchain Options
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Toolchain Configurations
|
|
------------------------
|
|
The NuttX make system has been modified to support the following different
|
|
toolchain options.
|
|
|
|
1. The CodeSourcery GNU toolchain,
|
|
2. The Atollic Toolchain,
|
|
3. The devkitARM GNU toolchain,
|
|
4. Raisonance GNU toolchain, or
|
|
5. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below).
|
|
|
|
All testing has been conducted using the CodeSourcery toolchain for Windows. To use
|
|
the Atollic, devkitARM, Raisonance GNU, or NuttX buildroot toolchain, you simply need to
|
|
add one of the following configuration options to your .config (or defconfig)
|
|
file:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_ATOLLIC_LITE=y : The free, "Lite" version of Atollic toolchain under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_ATOLLIC_PRO=y : The paid, "Pro" version of Atollic toolchain under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_DEVKITARM=y : devkitARM under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_RAISONANCE=y : Raisonance RIDE7 under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin (default)
|
|
|
|
If you change the default toolchain, then you may also have to modify the PATH in
|
|
the setenv.sh file if your make cannot find the tools.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: the CodeSourcery (for Windows), Atollic, devkitARM, and Raisonance toolchains are
|
|
Windows native toolchains. The CodeSourcey (for Linux) and NuttX buildroot
|
|
toolchains are Cygwin and/or Linux native toolchains. 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.
|
|
|
|
3. Dependencies are not made when using Windows versions of the GCC. This is
|
|
because the dependencies are generated using Windows pathes which do not
|
|
work with the Cygwin make.
|
|
|
|
MKDEP = $(TOPDIR)/tools/mknulldeps.sh
|
|
|
|
The CodeSourcery Toolchain (2009q1)
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
The CodeSourcery toolchain (2009q1) does not work with default optimization
|
|
level of -Os (See Make.defs). It will work with -O0, -O1, or -O2, but not with
|
|
-Os.
|
|
|
|
The Atollic "Pro" and "Lite" Toolchain
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
One problem that I had with the Atollic toolchains is that the provide a gcc.exe
|
|
and g++.exe in the same bin/ file as their ARM binaries. If the Atollic bin/ path
|
|
appears in your PATH variable before /usr/bin, then you will get the wrong gcc
|
|
when you try to build host executables. This will cause to strange, uninterpretable
|
|
errors build some host binaries in tools/ when you first make.
|
|
|
|
The Atollic "Lite" Toolchain
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
The free, "Lite" version of the Atollic toolchain does not support C++ nor
|
|
does it support ar, nm, objdump, or objdcopy. If you use the Atollic "Lite"
|
|
toolchain, you will have to set:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=n
|
|
|
|
In order to compile successfully. Otherwise, you will get errors like:
|
|
|
|
"C++ Compiler only available in TrueSTUDIO Professional"
|
|
|
|
The make may then fail in some of the post link processing because of some of
|
|
the other missing tools. The Make.defs file replaces the ar and nm with
|
|
the default system x86 tool versions and these seem to work okay. Disable all
|
|
of the following to avoid using objcopy:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_RRLOAD_BINARY=n
|
|
CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=n
|
|
CONFIG_MOTOROLA_SREC=n
|
|
CONFIG_RAW_BINARY=n
|
|
|
|
devkitARM
|
|
---------
|
|
The devkitARM toolchain includes a version of MSYS make. Make sure that the
|
|
the paths to Cygwin's /bin and /usr/bin directories appear BEFORE the devkitARM
|
|
path or will get the wrong version of make.
|
|
|
|
IDEs
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
NuttX is built using command-line make. It can be used with an IDE, but some
|
|
effort will be required to create the project.
|
|
|
|
Makefile Build
|
|
--------------
|
|
Under Eclipse, it is pretty easy to set up an "empty makefile project" and
|
|
simply use the NuttX makefile to build the system. That is almost for free
|
|
under Linux. Under Windows, you will need to set up the "Cygwin GCC" empty
|
|
makefile project in order to work with Windows (Google for "Eclipse Cygwin" -
|
|
there is a lot of help on the internet).
|
|
|
|
Native Build
|
|
------------
|
|
Here are a few tips before you start that effort:
|
|
|
|
1) Select the toolchain that you will be using in your .config file
|
|
2) Start the NuttX build at least one time from the Cygwin command line
|
|
before trying to create your project. This is necessary to create
|
|
certain auto-generated files and directories that will be needed.
|
|
3) Set up include pathes: You will need include/, arch/arm/src/stm32,
|
|
arch/arm/src/common, arch/arm/src/armv7-m, and sched/.
|
|
4) All assembly files need to have the definition option -D __ASSEMBLY__
|
|
on the command line.
|
|
|
|
Startup files will probably cause you some headaches. The NuttX startup file
|
|
is arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_vectors.S. With RIDE, I have to build NuttX
|
|
one time from the Cygwin command line in order to obtain the pre-built
|
|
startup object needed by RIDE.
|
|
|
|
NuttX EABI "buildroot" Toolchain
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
A GNU GCC-based toolchain is assumed. The files */setenv.sh should
|
|
be modified to point to the correct path to the Cortex-M3 GCC toolchain (if
|
|
different from the default in your PATH variable).
|
|
|
|
If you have no Cortex-M3 toolchain, one can be downloaded from the NuttX
|
|
SourceForge download site (https://sourceforge.net/projects/nuttx/files/buildroot/).
|
|
This GNU toolchain builds and executes in the Linux or Cygwin environment.
|
|
|
|
1. You must have already configured Nuttx in <some-dir>/nuttx.
|
|
|
|
cd tools
|
|
./configure.sh stm32f100rc_generic/<sub-dir>
|
|
|
|
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
|
|
|
|
3. unpack the buildroot tarball. The resulting directory may
|
|
have versioning information on it like buildroot-x.y.z. If so,
|
|
rename <some-dir>/buildroot-x.y.z to <some-dir>/buildroot.
|
|
|
|
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
|
|
|
|
5. cp configs/cortexm3-eabi-defconfig-4.6.3 .config
|
|
|
|
6. make oldconfig
|
|
|
|
7. make
|
|
|
|
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
|
|
the path to the newly built binaries.
|
|
|
|
See the file configs/README.txt in the buildroot source tree. That has more
|
|
details PLUS some special instructions that you will need to follow if you are
|
|
building a Cortex-M3 toolchain for Cygwin under Windows.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Unfortunately, the 4.6.3 EABI toolchain is not compatible with the
|
|
the NXFLAT tools. See the top-level TODO file (under "Binary loaders") for
|
|
more information about this problem. If you plan to use NXFLAT, please do not
|
|
use the GCC 4.6.3 EABI toochain; instead use the GCC 4.3.3 OABI toolchain.
|
|
See instructions below.
|
|
|
|
NuttX OABI "buildroot" Toolchain
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
The older, OABI buildroot toolchain is also available. To use the OABI
|
|
toolchain:
|
|
|
|
1. When building the buildroot toolchain, either (1) modify the cortexm3-eabi-defconfig-4.6.3
|
|
configuration to use EABI (using 'make menuconfig'), or (2) use an exising OABI
|
|
configuration such as cortexm3-defconfig-4.3.3
|
|
|
|
2. Modify the Make.defs file to use the OABI conventions:
|
|
|
|
+CROSSDEV = arm-nuttx-elf-
|
|
+ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mtune=cortex-m3 -march=armv7-m -mfloat-abi=soft
|
|
+NXFLATLDFLAGS2 = $(NXFLATLDFLAGS1) -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libnxflat/gnu-nxflat-gotoff.ld -no-check-sections
|
|
-CROSSDEV = arm-nuttx-eabi-
|
|
-ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-m3 -mthumb -mfloat-abi=soft
|
|
-NXFLATLDFLAGS2 = $(NXFLATLDFLAGS1) -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libnxflat/gnu-nxflat-pcrel.ld -no-check-sections
|
|
|
|
NXFLAT Toolchain
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
If you are *not* using the NuttX buildroot toolchain and you want to use
|
|
the NXFLAT tools, then you will still have to build a portion of the buildroot
|
|
tools -- just the NXFLAT tools. The buildroot with the NXFLAT tools can
|
|
be downloaded from the NuttX SourceForge download site
|
|
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/nuttx/files/).
|
|
|
|
This GNU toolchain builds and executes in the Linux or Cygwin environment.
|
|
|
|
1. You must have already configured Nuttx in <some-dir>/nuttx.
|
|
|
|
cd tools
|
|
./configure.sh lpcxpresso-lpc1768/<sub-dir>
|
|
|
|
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
|
|
|
|
3. unpack the buildroot tarball. The resulting directory may
|
|
have versioning information on it like buildroot-x.y.z. If so,
|
|
rename <some-dir>/buildroot-x.y.z to <some-dir>/buildroot.
|
|
|
|
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
|
|
|
|
5. cp configs/cortexm3-defconfig-nxflat .config
|
|
|
|
6. make oldconfig
|
|
|
|
7. make
|
|
|
|
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
|
|
the path to the newly builtNXFLAT binaries.

LEDs
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
It is asumed that STMicro STM32F100RC generic board board has one LED on PA0.
|
|
You should configure the port and pin number in
|
|
configs/stm32f100rc_generic/src/stm32f100rc_internal.h. This LED is not used by
|
|
the board port unless CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS is defined. In that case, the usage by
|
|
the board port is defined in include/board.h and src/up_leds.c. The LED is used
|
|
to encode OS-related events as follows:
|
|
|
|
SYMBOL Meaning LED1*
|
|
green
|
|
------------------- ----------------------- -------
|
|
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started ON
|
|
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated ON
|
|
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled ON
|
|
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created ON
|
|
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt ON
|
|
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler ON
|
|
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed OFF
|
|
LED_PANIC The system has crashed OFF
|
|
|
|
So basically if the LED is off it means that there is a problem.
|
|
|
|
UART
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
Default USART/UART Configuration
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
USART2 is enabled in all configurations (see */defconfig). RX and TX are
|
|
configured on pins PA3 and PA2, respectively.
|
|
|
|
"STMicro STM32F100RC generic" specific Configuration Options
|
|
============================================================
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH - Identifies the arch/ subdirectory. This should
|
|
be set to:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH=arm
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_family - For use in C code:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_ARM=y
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_architecture - For use in C code:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_CORTEXM3=y
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP - Identifies the arch/*/chip subdirectory
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP=stm32
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_name - For use in C code to identify the exact
|
|
chip:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_STM32F100RC=y
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG - Enables special STM32 clock
|
|
configuration features.
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG=n
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD - Identifies the configs subdirectory and
|
|
hence, the board that supports the particular chip or SoC.
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD=stm32f100rc_generic
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_name - For use in C code
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32F100RC_GENERIC=y
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC - Must be calibrated for correct operation
|
|
of delay loops
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ENDIAN_BIG - define if big endian (default is little
|
|
endian)
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE - Describes the installed DRAM (SRAM in this case):
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=24576 (24kB)
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_START - The start address of installed DRAM
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x20000000
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_IRQPRIO - STM32F100RC chip supports interrupt prioritization
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_IRQPRIO=y
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LED to show state. Unique to boards that have LED(s)
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_INTERRUPTSTACK - This architecture supports an interrupt
|
|
stack. If defined, this symbol is the size of the interrupt
|
|
stack in bytes. If not defined, the user task stacks will be
|
|
used during interrupt handling.
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_STACKDUMP - Do stack dumps after assertions
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_CALIBRATION - when used togeter with CONFIG_DEBUG enables some
|
|
build in instrumentation that cause a 100 second delay during boot-up.
|
|
This 100 second delay serves no purpose other than it allows you to
|
|
calibratre CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC. You simply use a stop watch to
|
|
measure the 100 second delay then adjust CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC until
|
|
the delay actually is 100 seconds.

Timer devices may be used for different purposes. One special purpose is
|
|
to generate modulated outputs for such things as motor control. If CONFIG_STM32_TIMn
|
|
is defined (as above) then the following may also be defined to indicate that
|
|
the timer is intended to be used for pulsed output modulation, ADC conversion,
|
|
or DAC conversion. Note that ADC/DAC require two definition: Not only do you have
|
|
to assign the timer (n) for used by the ADC or DAC, but then you also have to
|
|
configure which ADC or DAC (m) it is assigned to.
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_PWM Reserve timer n for use by PWM, n=1,..,17
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADC Reserve timer n for use by ADC, n=1,..,17
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADC1 Reserve timer n to trigger ADCm, n=1,..,17
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_DAC Reserve timer n for use by DAC, n=1,..,17
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_DACm Reserve timer n to trigger DACm, n=1,..,17, m=1,..,2
|
|
|
|
For each timer that is enabled for PWM usage, we need the following additional
|
|
configuration settings:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_TIMx_CHANNEL - Specifies the timer output channel {1,..,4}
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The STM32 timers are each capable of generating different signals on
|
|
each of the four channels with different duty cycles. That capability is
|
|
not supported by this driver: Only one output channel per timer.
|
|
|
|
JTAG Enable settings (by default full SWJ is enabled):
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_FULL_ENABLE - Enables full SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_NOJNTRST_ENABLE - Enables full SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
|
|
but without JNTRST.
|
|
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_SW_ENABLE - Set JTAG-DP disabled and SW-DP enabled
|
|
|
|
STMicro STM32F100RC generic specific device driver settings
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_SERIAL_CONSOLE - selects the USARTn (n=1,2,3) or UART
|
|
m (m=4,5) for the console and ttys0 (default is the USART1).
|
|
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_RXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered as received.
|
|
This specific the size of the receive buffer
|
|
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_TXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered before
|
|
being sent. This specific the size of the transmit buffer
|
|
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_BAUD - The configure BAUD of the UART. Must be
|
|
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_BITS - The number of bits. Must be either 7 or 8.
|
|
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_PARTIY - 0=no parity, 1=odd parity, 2=even parity
|
|
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_2STOP - Two stop bits
|
|
|
|
Configurations
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Each STMicro STM32F100RC generic configuration is maintained in a sub-directory
|
|
and can be selected as follow:
|
|
|
|
cd tools
|
|
./configure.sh stm32f100rc_generic/<subdir>
|
|
cd -
|
|
. ./setenv.sh
|
|
|
|
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
|
|
|
|
ostest:
|
|
------
|
|
This configuration directory, performs a simple OS test using
|
|
apps/examples/ostest.
|
|
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
|
|
1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To
|
|
change this configuration using that tool, you should:
|
|
|
|
a. Build and install the mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt and
|
|
misc/tools/
|
|
|
|
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
|
|
reconfiguration process.
|
|
