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 CodeSourcery GNU toolchain,
2. The devkitARM GNU toolchain,
3. Raisonance GNU toolchain, or
4. 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, devkitARM or Raisonance GNU toolchain, you simply need to
add one of the following configuration options to your .config (or defconfig)
file:
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_DEVKITARM=y : devkitARM under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_RAISONANCE=y : Raisonance RIDE7 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 CodeSourcery (for Windows), 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
NOTE 1: 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.
NOTE 2: The devkitARM toolchain includes a version of MSYS make. Make sure that
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. You may have to build NuttX
one time from the Cygwin command line in order to obtain the pre-built
startup object needed by an IDE.
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 stm3210e-eval/<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.
DFU and JTAG
============
Enbling Support for the DFU Bootloader
--------------------------------------
The linker files in these projects can be configured to indicate that you
will be loading code using STMicro built-in USB Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU)
loader or via some JTAG emulator. You can specify the DFU bootloader by
adding the following line:
CONFIG_STM32_DFU=y
to your .config file. Most of the configurations in this directory are set
up to use the DFU loader.
If CONFIG_STM32_DFU is defined, the code will not be positioned at the beginning
of FLASH (0x08000000) but will be offset to 0x08003000. This offset is needed
to make space for the DFU loader and 0x08003000 is where the DFU loader expects
to find new applications at boot time. If you need to change that origin for some
other bootloader, you will need to edit the file(s) ld.script.dfu for the
configuration.
The DFU SE PC-based software is available from the STMicro website,
http://www.st.com. General usage instructions:
1. Convert the NuttX Intel Hex file (nuttx.hex) into a special DFU
file (nuttx.dfu)... see below for details.
2. Connect the STM3210E-EVAL board to your computer using a USB
cable.
3. Start the DFU loader on the STM3210E-EVAL board. You do this by
resetting the board while holding the "Key" button. Windows should
recognize that the DFU loader has been installed.
3. Run the DFU SE program to load nuttx.dfu into FLASH.
What if the DFU loader is not in FLASH? The loader code is available
inside of the Demo dirctory of the USBLib ZIP file that can be downloaded
from the STMicro Website. You can build it using RIDE (or other toolchains);
you will need a JTAG emulator to burn it into FLASH the first time.
In order to use STMicro's built-in DFU loader, you will have to get
the NuttX binary into a special format with a .dfu extension. The
DFU SE PC_based software installation includes a file "DFU File Manager"
conversion program that a file in Intel Hex format to the special DFU
format. When you successfully build NuttX, you will find a file called
nutt.hex in the top-level directory. That is the file that you should
provide to the DFU File Manager. You will end up with a file called
nuttx.dfu that you can use with the STMicro DFU SE program.
Enabling JTAG
-------------
If you are not using the DFU, then you will probably also need to enable
JTAG support. By default, all JTAG support is disabled but there NuttX
configuration options to enable JTAG in various different ways.
These configurations effect the setting of the SWJ_CFG[2:0] bits in the AFIO
MAPR register. These bits are used to configure the SWJ and trace alternate function I/Os. The SWJ (SerialWire JTAG) supports JTAG or SWD access to the
Cortex debug port. The default state in this port is for all JTAG support
to be disable.
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_FULL_ENABLE - sets SWJ_CFG[2:0] to 000 which enables full
SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_NOJNTRST_ENABLE - sets SWJ_CFG[2:0] to 001 which enable
full SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP) but without JNTRST.
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_SW_ENABLE - sets SWJ_CFG[2:0] to 010 which would set JTAG-DP
disabled and SW-DP enabled
The default setting (none of the above defined) is SWJ_CFG[2:0] set to 100
which disable JTAG-DP and SW-DP.
OpenOCD
=======
I have also used OpenOCD with the STM3210E-EVAL. In this case, I used
the Olimex USB ARM OCD. See the script in configs/stm3210e-eval/tools/oocd.sh
for more information. Using the script:
1) Start the OpenOCD GDB server
cd <nuttx-build-directory>
configs/stm3210e-eval/tools/oocd.sh $PWD
2) Load Nuttx
cd <nuttx-built-directory>
arm-none-eabi-gdb nuttx
gdb> target remote localhost:3333
gdb> mon reset
gdb> mon halt
gdb> load nuttx
3) Running NuttX
gdb> mon reset
gdb> c
LEDs
====
The STM3210E-EVAL board has four LEDs labeled LD1, LD2, LD3 and LD4 on the
board.. These LEDs are 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 LEDs are used to encode OS-related
events as follows:
SYMBOL Meaning LED1* LED2 LED3 LED4
---------------- ----------------------- ----- ----- ----- -----
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started ON OFF OFF OFF
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF ON OFF OFF
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled ON ON OFF OFF
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created OFF OFF ON OFF
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt** ON N/C N/C OFF
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler*** N/C ON N/C OFF
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed ON ON N/C OFF
LED_PANIC The system has crashed N/C N/C N/C ON
LED_IDLE STM32 is is sleep mode (Optional, not used)
* If LED1, LED2, LED3 are statically on, then NuttX probably failed to boot
and these LEDs will give you some indication of where the failure was
** The normal state is LED3 ON and LED1 faintly glowing. This faint glow
is because of timer interupts that result in the LED being illuminated
on a small proportion of the time.
*** LED2 may also flicker normally if signals are processed.
Temperature Sensor
==================
LM-75 Temperature Sensor Driver
-------------------------------
Support for the on-board LM-75 temperature sensor is available. This
support has been verified, but has not been included in any of the
available the configurations. To set up the temperature sensor, add the
following to the NuttX configuration file
Drivers -> Sensors
CONFIG_LM75=y
CONFIG_I2C_LM75=y
Then you can implement logic like the following to use the temperature
sensor:
#include <nuttx/sensors/lm75.h>
#include <arch/board/board.h>
ret = stm32_lm75initialize("/dev/temp"); /* Register the temperature sensor */
fd = open("/dev/temp", O_RDONLY); /* Open the temperature sensor device */
ret = ioctl(fd, SNIOC_FAHRENHEIT, 0); /* Select Fahrenheit */
bytesread = read(fd, buffer, 8*sizeof(b16_t)); /* Read temperature samples */
More complex temperature sensor operations are also available. See the
IOCTL commands enumerated in include/nuttx/sensors/lm75.h. Also read the
escriptions of the stm32_lm75initialize() and stm32_lm75attach()
interfaces in the arch/board/board.h file (sames as
configs/stm3210e-eval/include/board.h).
NSH Command Line Application
----------------------------
There is a tiny NSH command line application at examples/system/lm75 that
will read the current temperature from an LM75 compatible temperature sensor
and print the temperature on stdout in either units of degrees Fahrenheit or
Centigrade. This tiny command line application is enabled with the following
configuration options:
Library
CONFIG_LIBM=y
CONFIG_LIBC_FLOATINGPOINT=y
Applications -> NSH Library
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y
Applications -> System Add-Ons
CONFIG_SYSTEM_LM75=y
CONFIG_SYSTEM_LM75_DEVNAME="/dev/temp"
CONFIG_SYSTEM_LM75_FAHRENHEIT=y (or CENTIGRADE)
CONFIG_SYSTEM_LM75_STACKSIZE=1024
CONFIG_SYSTEM_LM75_PRIORITY=100
RTC
===
The STM32 RTC may configured using the following settings.
CONFIG_RTC - Enables general support for a hardware RTC. Specific
architectures may require other specific settings.
CONFIG_RTC_HIRES - The typical RTC keeps time to resolution of 1
second, usually supporting a 32-bit time_t value. In this case,
the RTC is used to "seed" the normal NuttX timer and the
NuttX timer provides for higher resoution time. If CONFIG_RTC_HIRES
is enabled in the NuttX configuration, then the RTC provides higher
resolution time and completely replaces the system timer for purpose of
date and time.
CONFIG_RTC_FREQUENCY - If CONFIG_RTC_HIRES is defined, then the
frequency of the high resolution RTC must be provided. If CONFIG_RTC_HIRES
is not defined, CONFIG_RTC_FREQUENCY is assumed to be one.
CONFIG_RTC_ALARM - Enable if the RTC hardware supports setting of an alarm.
A callback function will be executed when the alarm goes off
In hi-res mode, the STM32 RTC operates only at 16384Hz. Overflow interrupts
are handled when the 32-bit RTC counter overflows every 3 days and 43 minutes.
A BKP register is incremented on each overflow interrupt creating, effectively,
a 48-bit RTC counter.
In the lo-res mode, the RTC operates at 1Hz. Overflow interrupts are not handled
(because the next overflow is not expected until the year 2106.
WARNING: Overflow interrupts are lost whenever the STM32 is powered down. The
overflow interrupt may be lost even if the STM32 is powered down only momentarily.
Therefore hi-res solution is only useful in systems where the power is always on.
FSMC SRAM
=========
The 8-Mbit SRAM is connected to the STM32 at PG10 which will be FSMC_NE3, Bank1
SRAM3. This memory will appear at address 0x68000000.
The on-board SRAM can be configured by setting
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC=y : Enables the FSMC
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC_SRAM=y : Enable external SRAM support
CONFIG_HEAP2_BASE=0x68000000 : SRAM will be located at 0x680000000
CONFIG_HEAP2_SIZE=1048576 : The size of the SRAM is 1Mbyte
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS=2 : There will be two memory regions
: in the heap
STM3210E-EVAL-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_STM32F103ZE
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=stm3210e_eval (for the STM3210E-EVAL development board)
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_name - For use in C code
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM3210E_EVAL=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=0x00010000 (64Kb)
CONFIG_RAM_START - The start address of installed DRAM
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x20000000
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to boards that
have LEDs
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_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to board architecture.
CONFIG_ARCH_CALIBRATION - 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 and I2C devices may need to the following to force power to be applied
unconditionally at power up. (Otherwise, the device is powered when it is
initialized).
CONFIG_STM32_FORCEPOWER
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,..,8
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADC Reserve timer n for use by ADC, n=1,..,8
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADCm Reserve timer n to trigger ADCm, n=1,..,8, m=1,..,3
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_DAC Reserve timer n for use by DAC, n=1,..,8
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_DACm Reserve timer n to trigger DACm, n=1,..,8, 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.
Alternate pin mappings. The STM3210E-EVAL board requires only CAN1 remapping
On the STM3210E-EVAL board pin PB9 is wired as TX and pin PB8 is wired as RX.
Which then makes the proper connection through the CAN transiver SN65HVD230
out to the CAN D-type 9-pn male connector where pin 2 is CANL and pin 7 is CANH.

adjustable backlight will be provided using timer 1 to generate
various pulse widthes. The granularity of the settings is
determined by CONFIG_LCD_MAXPOWER. If CONFIG_STM3210E_LCD_PWM (or
CONFIG_STM32_TIM1) is not defined, then a simple on/off backlight
is provided.
CONFIG_STM3210E_LCD_RDSHIFT - When reading 16-bit gram data, there appears
to be a shift in the returned data. This value fixes the offset.
Default 5.
The LCD driver dynamically selects the LCD based on the reported LCD
ID value. However, code size can be reduced by suppressing support for
individual LCDs using:
CONFIG_STM3210E_AM240320_DISABLE
CONFIG_STM3210E_SPFD5408B_DISABLE
CONFIG_STM3210E_R61580_DISABLE
Configurations
==============
Each STM3210E-EVAL configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
can be selected as follow:
cd tools
./configure.sh stm3210e-eval/<subdir>
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
buttons:
--------
Uses apps/examples/buttons to exercise STM3210E-EVAL buttons and
button interrupts.
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
composite
---------
This configuration exercises a composite USB interface consisting
of a CDC/ACM device and a USB mass storage device. This configuration
uses apps/system/composite.
nsh and nsh2:
------------
Configure the NuttShell (nsh) located at examples/nsh.
Differences between the two NSH configurations:

(1) You will probably need to modify nsh/setenv.sh or nsh2/setenv.sh
to set up the correct PATH variable for whichever toolchain you
may use.
(2) Since DfuSe is assumed, this configuration may only work under
Cygwin without modification.
(3) When any other device other than /dev/console is used for a user
interface, (1) linefeeds (\n) will not be expanded to carriage return
/ linefeeds \r\n). You will need to configure your terminal program
to account for this. And (2) input is not automatically echoed so
you will have to turn local echo on.
(4) Microsoft holds several patents related to the design of
long file names in the FAT file system. Please refer to the
details in the top-level COPYING file. Please do not use FAT
long file name unless you are familiar with these patent issues.
(5) When built as an NSH add-on command (CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS=y),
Caution should be used to assure that the SD drive is not in use when
the USB storage device is configured. Specifically, the SD driver
should be unmounted like:
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sdcard # Card is mounted in NSH
...
nsh> umount /mnd/sdcard # Unmount before connecting USB!!!
nsh> msconn # Connect the USB storage device
...
nsh> msdis # Disconnect USB storate device
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sdcard # Restore the mount
Failure to do this could result in corruption of the SD card format.
1. Both configurations use the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change these configurations using that tool, you should:
a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt
and misc/tools/
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. The nsh2 contains support for some built-in applications that can be
enabled by make some additional minor changes:
a. examples/can. The CAN test example can be enabled by changing the
following settings in nsh2/defconfig:
CONFIG_CAN=y : Enable CAN "upper-half" driver support
CONFIG_STM32_CAN1=y : Enable STM32 CAN1 "lower-half" driver support
The default CAN settings may need to change in your board board
configuration:
CONFIG_CAN_EXTID=y : Support extended IDs
CONFIG_CAN1_BAUD=250000 : Bit rate: 250 KHz
CONFIG_CAN_TSEG1=12 : 80% sample point
CONFIG_CAN_TSEG2=3
nx:
---
An example using the NuttX graphics system (NX). This example
focuses on general window controls, movement, mouse and keyboard
input.
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
CONFIG_LCD_RPORTRAIT=y : 240x320 reverse portrait
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
and misc/tools/
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. If you configured the multi-used NX server (which is disabled
by default), then you would also need:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_CLIENTPRIO=80
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_NOTIFYSIGNO=4
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_SERVERPRIO=120
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX_STACKSIZE=2048
3. This example provides a framework for a number of other standalone
graphics tests.
a. apps/examples/nxlines: The NXLINES graphic example illustrates
drawing of fat lines in various orientations. You can modify
this configuration so to support the NXLINES example by making
the following modifications to the NuttX configuration file:
Provide the new start-up entry point:
CONFIG_USER_ENTRYPOINT="nxlines_main"
Disable apps/examples/nx:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX=n
Enable and configure apps/nxlines/nxlines:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES=y
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_VPLANE=0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_DEVNO=0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_DEFAULT_COLORS=n
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_BGCOLOR=0x0320
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_LINEWIDTH=16
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_LINECOLOR=0xffe0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_BORDERWIDTH=4
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_BORDERCOLOR=0xffe0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_CIRCLECOLOR=0xf7bb
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_BPP=16
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_EXTERNINIT=n
b. apps/examples/nxtext: Another example using the NuttX graphics
system (NX). This example focuses on placing text on the
background while pop-up windows occur. Text should continue to
update normally with or without the popup windows present.
You can modify this configuration so to support the NXLINES
example by making the following modifications to the NuttX
configuration file:
Provide the new start-up entry point:
CONFIG_USER_ENTRYPOINT="nxtext_main"
Disable apps/examples/nx:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NX=n
Enable an NX font:
CONFIG_NXFONT_SERIF22X28B=y
Enable and configure apps/nxlines/nxtext:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT=y
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_VPLANE=0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_DEVNO=0
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BPP=16
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BMCACHE=512
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_GLCACHE=16
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_DEFAULT_COLORS=n
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BGCOLOR=0x0011
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BGFONTCOLOR=0xffdf
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_PUCOLOR=0xfd20
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_PUFONTCOLOR=0x001f
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_DEFAULT_FONT=n
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BGFONTID=11
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_PUFONTID=1
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_EXTERNINIT=n
If you configured the multi-used NX server (which is disabled
by default), then you would also need:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_STACKSIZE=2048
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_CLIENTPRIO=80
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_SERVERPRIO=120
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_NOTIFYSIGNO=4
c. Others could be similar configured: apps/examples/nxhello,
nximage, ...
4. The nsh configuration was used to verify the discrete joystick
(DJoystick driver). If you would like to duplicate this test, below
are the configuration changes needed to setup the DJoystick driver
(see nuttx/drivers/input/djoystick.c) and the DJoystick test (see
apps/examples/djoystick):
Pre-requisites:
CONFIG_DISABLE_POLL=n # Don't disable poll()
CONFIG_BUILTIN=y # Enable support for built-in applications
CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS=y # Enable NSH built-in applications
Enable the DJoystick driver:
CONFIG_INPUT=y # Enable input driver support
CONFIG_DJOYSTICK=y # Enable the joystick drivers
# (default parmeters should be okay)
Enable the DJoystick Example:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DJOYSTICK=y # Enable the DJoystick example
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DJOYSTICK_DEVNAME="/dev/djoy0"
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DJOYSTICK_SIGNO=13
When running the configuration, you should see the built-in
application 'djoy'. Just typo 'djoy' at the NSH command prompt.
The test will simply should the joystick position and will exect when
the joystick select indication is received (when the joystick button
is push downward).
nxterm:
----------
This is yet another NSH configuration. This NSH configuration differs
from the other, however, in that it uses the NxTerm driver to host
the NSH shell.
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
and misc/tools/
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. Some of the differences in this configuration include these settings
in the defconfig file:
These select NX Multi-User mode:
CONFG_NX_MULTIUSER=y
CONFIG_DISABLE_MQUEUE=n
The following definition in the defconfig file to enables the NxTerm
driver:
CONFIG_NXTERM=y
And this selects apps/examples/nxterm instead of apps/examples/nsh:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTERM=y
Other configuration settings of interest:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : with Cygwin
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin
CONFIG_LCD_LANDSCAPE=y : 320x240 landscape
pm:
--
This is a configuration that is used to test STM32 power management, i.e.,
to test that the board can go into lower and lower states of power usage
as a result of inactivity. This configuration is based on the nsh2
configuration with modifications for testing power management. This
configuration should provide some guideline for power management in your
STM32 application.
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
and misc/tools/
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. Default configuration is Cygwin under windows using the CodeSourcery
toolchain:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Cygwin
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
3. CONFIG_ARCH_CUSTOM_PMINIT and CONFIG_ARCH_IDLE_CUSTOM are necessary
parts of the PM configuration:
CONFIG_ARCH_CUSTOM_PMINIT=y
CONFIG_ARCH_CUSTOM_PMINIT moves the PM initialization from
arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_pminitialiaze.c to configs/stm3210-eval/src/stm32_pm.c.
This allows us to support board-specific PM initialization.
CONFIG_ARCH_IDLE_CUSTOM=y
The bulk of the PM activities occur in the IDLE loop. The IDLE loop
is special because it is what runs when there is no other task running.
Therefore when the IDLE executes, we can be assure that nothing else
is going on; this is the ideal condition for doing reduced power
management.
The configuration CONFIG_ARCH_IDLE_CUSTOM allows us to "steal" the
normal STM32 IDLE loop (of arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_idle.c) and replace
this with our own custom IDLE loop (at configs/stm3210-eval/src/up_idle.c).
4. Here are some additional things to note in the configuration:
CONFIG_PM_BUTTONS=y
CONFIG_PM_BUTTONS enables button support for PM testing. Buttons can
drive EXTI interrupts and EXTI interrrupts can be used to wakeup for
certain reduced power modes (STOP mode). The use of the buttons here
is for PM testing purposes only; buttons would normally be part the
application code and CONFIG_PM_BUTTONS would not be defined.
CONFIG_RTC_ALARM=y
The RTC alarm is used to wake up from STOP mode and to transition to
STANDBY mode. This used of the RTC alarm could conflict with other
uses of the RTC alarm in your application.
usbserial:
---------
This configuration directory exercises the USB serial class
driver at examples/usbserial. See examples/README.txt for
more information.
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin
USB debug output can be enabled as by changing the following
settings in the configuration file:
-CONFIG_DEBUG=n
-CONFIG_DEBUG_VERBOSE=n
-CONFIG_DEBUG_USB=n
+CONFIG_DEBUG=y
+CONFIG_DEBUG_VERBOSE=y
+CONFIG_DEBUG_USB=y
-CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACEINIT=n
-CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACECLASS=n
-CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACETRANSFERS=n
-CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACECONTROLLER=n
-CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACEINTERRUPTS=n
+CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACEINIT=y
+CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACECLASS=y
+CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACETRANSFERS=y
+CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACECONTROLLER=y
+CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACEINTERRUPTS=y
By default, the usbserial example uses the Prolific PL2303
serial/USB converter emulation. The example can be modified
to use the CDC/ACM serial class by making the following changes
to the configuration file:
-CONFIG_PL2303=y
+CONFIG_PL2303=n
-CONFIG_CDCACM=n
+CONFIG_CDCACM=y
The example can also be converted to use the alternative
USB serial example at apps/examples/usbterm by changing the
following:
-CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL=y
+CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL=n
-CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBTERM=n
+CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBTERM=y
usbmsc:
-------
This configuration directory exercises the USB mass storage
class driver at system/usbmsc. See examples/README.txt for
more information.
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
and misc/tools/
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. Build environment (can be easily reconfigured):
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y : Linux (or Cygwin)
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin
