Console
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The LPC4337-ws default console is the USART2.
|
|
|
|
Status
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
This is the current status of the LPC43xx port:
|
|
|
|
- The basic OS test configuration and the basic NSH configurations
|
|
are present and fully verified. This includes: SYSTICK system time,
|
|
pin and GPIO configuration, and serial console support. A SPIFI
|
|
MTD driver is also in place but requires further verification.
|
|
|
|
- The following drivers have been copied from the LPC17xx port, but
|
|
require integration into the LPC43xx. This integration should
|
|
consist of:
|
|
|
|
- Remove LPC17xx power, clocking, and pin configuration logic.
|
|
- Adding of clock source and frequency to the board.h file.
|
|
- Adding of LPC43 clock connection and pin configuration logic.
|
|
|
|
Within any luck, these drivers should come up very quickly:
|
|
|
|
- lpc43_adc.c,
|
|
- lpc43_dac.c,
|
|
- lpc43_gpdma.c,
|
|
- lpc43_i2c.c,
|
|
- lpc43_spi.c, and
|
|
- lpc43_ssp.c
|
|
|
|
These LPC17xx drivers were not brought into the LPC43xx port because
|
|
it appears the these peripherals have been completely redesigned:
|
|
|
|
- CAN,
|
|
- Ethernet,
|
|
- USB device, and
|
|
- USB host.
|
|
|
|
The following LPC43xx peripherals are unsupported. Some may be
|
|
compatible with the LPC17xx, but there is no LPC17xx driver to be
|
|
ported:
|
|
|
|
- SD/MMC,
|
|
- EMC,
|
|
- USB0,
|
|
- USB1,
|
|
- Ethernet,
|
|
- LCD,
|
|
- SCT,
|
|
- Timers 0-3
|
|
- MCPWM,
|
|
- QEI,
|
|
- Alarm timer,
|
|
- WWDT,
|
|
- RTC,
|
|
- Event monitor, and
|
|
- CAN,
|
|
|
|
For the missing drivers some of these can be leveraged from other
|
|
MCUs that appear to support the same peripheral IP.
|
|
|
|
- USB0 appears to be the same as the USB OTG peripheral for the
|
|
LPC31xx. It should be possible to drop in the LPC31xx driver
|
|
with a small porting effort.
|
|
|
|
- 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 STM32 Ethernet driver with a little more effort.
|
|
|
|
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. Testing was performed using the Cygwin
|
|
environment.
|
|
|
|
GNU Toolchain Options
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
The NuttX make system has been modified to support the following different
|
|
toolchain options.
|
|
|
|
1. The Code Red GNU toolchain,
|
|
2. The CodeSourcery GNU toolchain,
|
|
3. The Atollic Toolchain,
|
|
4. The devkitARM GNU toolchain,
|
|
5. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below).
|
|
|
|
All testing has been conducted using the NuttX buildroot toolchain. However,
|
|
the make system is setup to default to use the devkitARM toolchain. To use
|
|
the CodeSourcery or devkitARM toolchain, you simply need add one of the
|
|
following configuration options to your .config (or defconfig) file:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODEREDW=y : Code Red "RedSuite" under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=y : The Atollic toolchain under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_DEVKITARM=y : devkitARM under Windows
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin (default)
|
|
|
|
If you are not using CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT, then you may also have to modify
|
|
the PATH in the setenv.h file if your make cannot find the tools.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: the Code Red, CodeSourcery (for Windows), Atollic and devkitARM toolchains
|
|
are Windows native toolchains. The CodeSourcery (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.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
Also, the Atollic toolchains are the only toolchains that have built-in support for
|
|
the FPU in these configurations. If you plan to use the Cortex-M4 FPU, you will
|
|
need to use the Atollic toolchain for now. See the FPU section below for more
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
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/lpc43xx,
|
|
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/common/up_vectors.S.
|

Code Red IDE/Tools
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Booting the LPCLink
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
The first step is to activate the LPCLink's boot mode. Some general
|
|
instructions to do this are provided here:
|
|
|
|
http://support.code-red-tech.com/CodeRedWiki/BootingLPCLink
|
|
|
|
For my RedSuite installation path, that can be done using the following
|
|
steps in a Cygwin bash shell:
|
|
|
|
$ /cygdrive/c/code_red/RedSuite_4.2.3_379/redsuite/bin/Scripts/bootLPCXpresso.cmd winusb
|
|
Booting LPC-Link with LPCXpressoWIN.enc
|
|
Press any key to continue . . .
|
|
|
|
The same file logic can be found the less restrictive LPCXpresso package at:
|
|
|
|
/cygdrive/c/nxp/LPCXpresso_4.2.3_292/lpcxpresso/bin
|
|
|
|
(The "free" RedSuite version has a download limit of 8K; the "free" LPCXpresso
|
|
version has a download limit of 128K).
|
|
|
|
NOTE that the following alias is defined in the setenv.sh file and
|
|
can be used to enter the boot mode with a simpler command:
|
|
|
|
alias lpc43xx='${SCRIPT_BIN}/Scripts/bootLPCXpresso.cmd winusb'
|
|
|
|
Be default, the setenv.sh scripts uses the LPCXpresso path shown above.
|
|
Once setenv.sh has been sources, then entering boot mode becomes simply:
|
|
|
|
$ lpc43xx
|
|
Booting LPC-Link with LPCXpressoWIN.enc
|
|
Press any key to continue . . .
|
|
|
|
Using GDB
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
The underlying debugger within Red Suite/LPCXpresso is GDB. That GDB
|
|
used from the command line. The GDB configuration details for command
|
|
line use are on Code Red Wiki:
|
|
|
|
http://support.code-red-tech.com/CodeRedWiki/UsingGDB
|
|
|
|
and is also summarized here (see the full Wiki for additional details
|
|
and options).
|
|
|
|
The Code Red Debug Driver implements the GDB "remote" protocol to allow
|
|
connection to debug targets. To start a debug session using GDB, use
|
|
following steps:
|
|
|
|
arm-none-eabi-gdb executable.axf : Start GDB and name the debug image
|
|
target extended-remote | <debug driver> <options> : Start debug driver, connect to target
|
|
load : Load image and download to target
|
|
|
|
The where <debug driver> is crt_emu_lpc18_43_nxp for LPC18xx and LPC43xx.
|
|
Your PATH variable should be set up so that the debug driver executable
|
|
can be found. For my installation, the driver for the LPC18xx and LPC43xx
|
|
is located at:
|
|
|
|
/cygdrive/c/code_red/RedSuite_4.2.3_379/redsuite/bin/crt_emu_lpc18_43_nxp.exe, OR
|
|
/cygdrive/c/nxp/LPCXpresso_4.2.3_292/lpcxpresso/bin/crt_emu_lpc18_43_nxp.exe
|
|
|
|
And <options> are:
|
|
|
|
-n set information level for the debug driver. n should be 2, 3 or 4.
|
|
2 should be sufficient in most circumstances
|
|
|
|
-p<part> is the target device to connect to and you should use
|
|
<part>=LPC4337.
|
|
|
|
-wire=<probe> specifies the debug probe. For LPCLink on Windows 7 use
|
|
<probe>=winusb. The 128K free version only supports the LPC-Link
|
|
and RedProbe debug probes. Other JTAG interfaces are supported in
|
|
the full version.
|
|
|
|
Thus the correct invocation for the LPC4337 under Windows7 would be:
|
|
|
|
target extended-remote | crt_emu_lpc18_43_nxp -2 -pLPC4337 -wire=winusb
|
|
|
|
DDD. This command can be used to start GDB under the graphics front-end
|
|
DDD:
|
|
|
|
$ ddd --debugger arm-none-eabi-gdb nuttx &
|
|
|
|
NOTE 1: Don't forget to put the LPCLink in boot mode as described above
|
|
before starting GDB. So a typical session might look like this:
|
|
|
|
$ lpc43xx
|
|
Booting LPC-Link with LPCXpressoWIN.enc
|
|
Press any key to continue . . .
|
|
|
|
$ arm-none-eabi-gdb nuttx
|
|
(gdb) target extended-remote | crt_emu_lpc18_43_nxp -2 -pLPC4337 -wire=winusb
|
|
(gdb) load
|
|
(gdb) r
|
|
(gdb) c
|
|
|
|
NOTE 2: Don't forget to enable CONFIG_DEBUG_SYMBOLS=y in your NuttX
|
|
configuration file when you build NuttX. That option is necessary to build
|
|
in debugging symbols.
|
|
|
|
NOTE 3: There are few things that NuttX has to do differently if you
|
|
are using a debugger. Make sure that you also set CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES=y. Nothing
|
|
also is needed and no debug output will be generated; but NuttX will
|
|
use CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES=y to mean that a debugger is attached and will deal
|
|
with certain resets and debug controls appropriately.
|
|
|
|
So you should have:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES=y
|
|
CONFIG_DEBUG_SYMBOLS=y
|
|
|
|
NOTE 4: Every time that you control-C out of the command line GDB, you
|
|
leave a copy of the Code Red debugger (crt_emu_lpc18_43_nxp) running. I
|
|
have found that if you have these old copies of the debugger running,
|
|
hen strange things can happen when start yet another copy of the
|
|
debugger (I suspect that GDB may be talking with the wrong debugger).
|
|
|
|
If you exit GDB with quit (not control-C), it seems to clean-up okay.
|
|
But I have taken to keeping a Process Explorer window open all of the
|
|
time to keep track of how many of these bad processes have been created.
|
|
|
|
NOTE 5: There is also a certain function that is causing some problems.
|
|
The very first thing that the start-up logic does is call a function
|
|
called lpc43_softreset() which resets most of the peripherals. But it
|
|
also causes some crashes... I think because the resets are causing some
|
|
interrupts.
|
|
|
|
I put a big delay in the soft reset logic between resetting and clearing
|
|
pending interrupts and that seems to help some but I am not confident
|
|
that that is a fix. I think that the real fix might be to just eliminated
|
|
this lpc43_softreset() function if we determine that it is not needed.
|
|
|
|
If you step over lpc43_softreset() after loading the coding (using the 'n'
|
|
command), then everything seems work okay.
|
|
|
|
Troubleshooting
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
This page provides some troubleshooting information that you can use to
|
|
verify that the LPCLink is working correctly:
|
|
|
|
http://support.code-red-tech.com/CodeRedWiki/LPCLinkDiagnostics
|
|
|
|
Command Line Flash Programming
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The LPC18xx/LPC43xx debug driver can also be used to program the LPC43xx
|
|
flash directly from the command line. The script flash.sh that may be
|
|
found in the configs/LPC4337-ws/scripts directory can do that with
|
|
a single command line command.
|
|
|
|
Executing from SPIFI
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
By default, the configurations here assume that you are executing directly
|
|
from SRAM.
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_LPC43_BOOT_SRAM=y : Executing in SRAM
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODEREDW=y : Code Red under Windows
|
|
|
|
To execute from SPIFI, you would need to set:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_LPC43_BOOT_SPIFI=y : Executing from SPIFI
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=(128*1024) : SRAM Bank0 size
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x10000000 : SRAM Bank0 base address
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_OFFSET=(512*1024) : SPIFI file system offset
|
|
|
|
To boot the LPC4337-ws from SPIFI the DIP switches should be 1-OFF,
|
|
2-ON, 3-ON, 4-ON (LOW LOW LOW HIGH in Table 19, MSB to LSB).
|
|
|
|
If the code in flash hard faults after reset and crt_emu_lpc18_43_nxp
|
|
can't reset the MCU, an alternative is to temporarily change switch 1
|
|
to ON and press the reset button so it enters UART boot mode. Then
|
|
change it back to OFF and reset to boot again from flash.
|
|
|
|
# Use -wire to specify the debug probe in use:
|
|
# (empty) Red Probe+
|
|
# -wire=winusb LPC-Link on Windows XP
|
|
# -wire=hid LPC-Link on Windows Vista/ Windows 7
|
|
# Add -g -4 for verbose output

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
|
|
Bitbucket download site (https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/buildroot/downloads/).
|
|
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 LPC4337-ws/<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 Bitbucket download site
|
|
(https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/nuttx/downloads/).
|
|
|
|
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.

LED and Pushbuttons
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
LED
|
|
---
|
|
The LPC4337-ws has one user-controllable LED labelled D6 controlled
|
|
by the signal LED_3V3:
|
|
|
|
LED SIGNAL MCU
|
|
D6 LED_3V3 PE_& GPIO7[7]
|
|
|
|
A low output illuminates the LED.
|
|
|
|
If CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS is defined, the LED will be controlled as follows
|
|
for NuttX debug functionality (where NC means "No Change").
|
|
|
|
-------------------------- ---------
|
|
LED
|
|
-------------------------- ---------
|
|
LED_STARTED OFF
|
|
LED_HEAPALLOCATE OFF

LED_INIRQ NC
|
|
LED_SIGNAL NC
|
|
LED_ASSERTION NC
|
|
LED_PANIC Flashing
|
|
-------------------------- ---------
|
|
|
|
If CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS is not defined, then the LEDs are completely under
|
|
control of the application. The following interfaces are then available
|
|
for application control of the LEDs:
|
|
|
|
void board_userled_initialize(void);
|
|
void board_userled(int led, bool ledon);
|
|
void board_userled_all(uint8_t ledset);

FPU

|
|
|
|
FPU Configuration Options
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
There are two version of the FPU support built into the most NuttX Cortex-M4
|
|
ports. The current LPC43xx port support only one of these options, the "Non-
|
|
Lazy Floating Point Register Save". As a consequence, CONFIG_ARMV7M_CMNVECTOR
|
|
must be defined in *all* LPC43xx configuration files.
|
|
|
|
1. Lazy Floating Point Register Save.
|
|
|
|
This is an untested implementation that saves and restores FPU registers
|
|
only on context switches. This means: (1) floating point registers are
|
|
not stored on each context switch and, hence, possibly better interrupt
|
|
performance. But, (2) since floating point registers are not saved,
|
|
you cannot use floating point operations within interrupt handlers.
|
|
|
|
This logic can be enabled by simply adding the following to your .config
|
|
file:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
|
|
|
|
2. Non-Lazy Floating Point Register Save
|
|
|
|
Mike Smith has contributed an extensive re-write of the ARMv7-M exception
|
|
handling logic. This includes verified support for the FPU. These changes
|
|
have not yet been incorporated into the mainline and are still considered
|
|
experimental. These FPU logic can be enabled with:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_CMNVECTOR=y
|
|
|
|
You will probably also changes to the ld.script in if this option is selected.
|
|
This should work:
|
|
|
|
-ENTRY(_stext)
|
|
+ENTRY(__start) /* Treat __start as the anchor for dead code stripping */
|
|
+EXTERN(_vectors) /* Force the vectors to be included in the output */
|
|
|
|
CFLAGS
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
Only the recent toolchains have built-in support for the Cortex-M4 FPU. You will see
|
|
the following lines in each Make.defs file:
|
|
|
|
ifeq ($(CONFIG_ARCH_FPU),y)
|
|
ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-m4 -mthumb -march=armv7e-m -mfpu=fpv4-sp-d16 -mfloat-abi=hard
|
|
else
|
|
ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-m3 -mthumb -mfloat-abi=soft
|
|
endif
|
|
|
|
Configuration Changes
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Below are all of the configuration changes that I had to make to configs/stm3240g-eval/nsh2
|
|
in order to successfully build NuttX using the Atollic toolchain WITH FPU support:
|
|
|
|
-CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=n : Enable FPU support
|
|
+CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
|
|
|
|
-CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : Disable the CodeSourcery toolchain
|
|
+CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=n
|
|
|
|
-CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=n : Enable the Atollic toolchains
|
|
+CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=y :
|
|
|
|
-CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=y : Suppress generation FLASH download formats
|
|
+CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=n : (Only necessary with the "Lite" version)
|
|
|
|
-CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=y : Suppress generation of C++ code
|
|
+CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=n : (Only necessary with the "Lite" version)
|
|
|
|
See the section above on Toolchains, NOTE 2, for explanations for some of
|
|
the configuration settings. Some of the usual settings are just not supported
|
|
by the "Lite" version of the Atollic toolchain.

Configurations
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Each LPC4337-ws configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and can be selected
|
|
as follow:
|
|
|
|
cd tools
|
|
./configure.sh LPC4337-ws/<subdir>
|
|
cd -
|
|
. ./setenv.sh
|
|
|
|
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
|
|
|
|
nsh:
|
|
----
|
|
This configuration is the NuttShell (NSH) example at examples/nsh/.
|
|
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
|
|
1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To
|
|
change this configurations using that tool, you should:
|
|
|
|
a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt
|
|
see additional README.txt files in the NuttX tools repository.
|
|
|
|
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
|
|
reconfiguration process.
|
|
|
|
2. The project can exucute directly from SRAM with NuttX loaded by a debugger
|
|
by setting the following configuration options.
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_LPC43_BOOT_SRAM=y : Executing in SRAM
|
|
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODEREDW=y : Code Red under Windows
|
|
|
|
3. To execute from SPIFI, you would need to set:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_LPC43_BOOT_SPIFI=y : Executing from SPIFI
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=(128*1024) : SRAM Bank0 size
|
|
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x10000000 : SRAM Bank0 base address
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_OFFSET=(512*1024) : SPIFI file system offset
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS should also be increased if you want to other SRAM banks
|
|
to the memory pool.
|
|
|
|
4. This configuration an also be used create a block device on the SPIFI
|
|
FLASH. CONFIG_LPC43_SPIFI=y must also be defined to enable SPIFI setup
|
|
support:
|
|
|
|
SPIFI device geometry:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_OFFSET - Offset the beginning of the block driver this many
|
|
bytes into the device address space. This offset must be an exact
|
|
multiple of the erase block size (CONFIG_SPIFI_BLKSIZE). Default 0.
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_BLKSIZE - The size of one device erase block. If not defined
|
|
then the driver will try to determine the correct erase block size by
|
|
examining that data returned from spifi_initialize (which sometimes
|

Other SPIFI options
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_SECTOR512 - If defined, then the driver will report a more
|
|
FAT friendly 512 byte sector size and will manage the read-modify-write
|
|
operations on the larger erase block.
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_READONLY - Define to support only read-only operations.
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_LIBRARY - Don't use the LPC43xx ROM routines but, instead,
|
|
use an external library implementation of the SPIFI interface.
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_VERIFY - Verify all spifi_program() operations by reading
|
|
from the SPI address space after each write.
|
|
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPIFI_DUMP - Debug option to dump read/write buffers. You
|
|
probably do not want to enable this unless you want to dig through a
|
|
*lot* of debug output! Also required CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES, CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO,
|
|
and CONFIG_DEBUG_FS,
|
|
|
|
5. In my experience, there were some missing function pointers in the LPC43xx
|
|
SPIFI ROM routines and the SPIFI configuration could only be built with
|
|
CONFIG_SPIFI_LIBRARY=y. The SPIFI library is proprietary and cannot be
|
|
provided within NuttX open source repository; SPIFI library binaries can
|
|
be found on the lpcware.com website. In this build sceneario, you must
|
|
also provide the patch to the external SPIFI library be defining the make
|
|
variable EXTRA_LIBS in the top-level Make.defs file. Good luck!

6. By default the LPC4337-ws port is configured to run from the onboard flash
|
|
bank A at 0x1a000000. In order to achieve this, the resulting NuttX binary
|
|
will need to have a checksum computed over the vector table and then be
|
|
converted to a hex file which can then be flashed using a debugger such as
|
|
the Uws through Keil.
|
|
|
|
The checksum can be computed using the checksum binary provided with the
|
|
LPCXpresso IDE software suite as follows:
|
|
|
|
./checksum nuttx.bin -p LPC4337 -v
|
|
|
|
This will modify the binary file, appending the checksum to the correct place
|
|
at the end of the vector table.
|
|
|
|
The binary must now be converted to a hex file, which can be achieved using
|
|
the srec_cat utility, which is part of the SRecord package (srecord.sourceforge.net)
|
|
as follows:
|
|
|
|
srec_cat nuttx.bin -binary -offset 0x1a000000 -o nuttx.hex -intel --line-length=44
|
|
|
|
Now the hex file can be loaded using a debugger, and the code will execute from
|
|
flash.
