waitpid() cannot be used in kernel mode unless SCHED_HAVE_PARENT is
selected -> add dependency if BUILD_KERNEL is selected.
Why? Because without SCHED_HAVE_PARENT waitpid() works in a non-standard
way, meaning it does not use SIGCHLD to wake the parent, as it should.
Also, returning the child status via stat_loc corrupts memory as stat_loc
points to the parent's address environment:
pid_t nxsched_waitpid(pid_t pid, int *stat_loc, int options)
{
...
group->tg_statloc = stat_loc;
...
}
And later when the status is returned, the child writes to tg_statloc,
which points to the parent's address environment -> random memory
corruption:
static inline void nxtask_exitwakeup(FAR struct tcb_s *tcb, int status)
{
...
if (group->tg_statloc != NULL)
{
*group->tg_statloc = status << 8;
}
...
}

README.md
Apache NuttX is a real-time operating system (RTOS) with an emphasis on standards compliance and small footprint. Scalable from 8-bit to 64-bit microcontroller environments, the primary governing standards in NuttX are POSIX and ANSI standards. Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOSs (such as VxWorks) are adopted for functionality not available under these standards, or for functionality that is not appropriate for deeply-embedded environments (such as fork()).
For brevity, many parts of the documentation will refer to Apache NuttX as simply NuttX.
Getting Started
First time on NuttX? Read the Getting Started guide! If you don't have a board available, NuttX has its own simulator that you can run on terminal.
Documentation
You can find the current NuttX documentation on the Documentation Page.
Alternatively, you can build the documentation yourself by following the Documentation Build Instructions.
The old NuttX documentation is still available in the Apache wiki.
Supported Boards
NuttX supports a wide variety of platforms. See the full list on the Supported Platforms page.
Contributing
If you wish to contribute to the NuttX project, read the Contributing guidelines for information on Git usage, coding standard, workflow and the NuttX principles.
