CMSIS Version 5

The branch master of this GitHub repository contains the CMSIS Version 5.4.0. The documentation is available under http://arm-software.github.io/CMSIS_5/General/html/index.html

Use Issues to provide feedback and report problems for CMSIS Version 5.

Note: The branch develop of this GitHub repository reflects our current state of development and is constantly updated. It gives our users and partners contiguous access to the CMSIS development. It allows you to review the work and provide feedback or create pull requests for contributions.

A pre-built documentation is updated from time to time, but may be also generated using the instructions under Generate CMSIS Pack for Release.

Implemented Enhancements

• CMSIS-Core-A, RTX5: implementation for Cortex-A5/A7/A9
• Support for Armv8-M Architecture (Mainline and Baseline) as well as devices Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33
• CMSIS-RTOS2: RTX 5 is now available for IAR, GCC, Arm Compiler 5, Arm Compiler 6
• CMSIS-RTOS2: FreeRTOS adoption (release) is available https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS-FreeRTOS
• CMSIS-NN: Bare metal Neural Network function library.
• CMSIS-DAP v2: with WinUSB for faster communication and separate pipe for SWO support
• Config Wizard extension: access enum’s for configuration information

Further Planned Enhancements

• CMSIS-Zone: management of complex system
• CMSIS-Pack:
  • System Description SDF Format: describe more complex debug topologies than with a Debug Description in a tool agnostic way
  • Github based workflow: allows to develop software packs using github infra-structure
  • Flash algorithm via debugger: Some TurstZone enable devices cannot execute RAM. Commands that allow flash programming will be added to Debug Description.
  • CPDSC project file format: allows project templates that are agnostic of an IDE
  • Minimize need for IDE specific settings: CMSIS-Pack supports IDE specific parameters. Analyze and minimize

Generate CMSIS Pack for Release

This GitHub development repository contains already pre-built libraries of various software components (DSP, RTOS, RTOS2). These libraries are validated for release.

To build a complete CMSIS pack for installation the following additional tools are required:

• doxygen.exe Version: 1.8.6 (Documentation Generator)
• mscgen.exe Version: 0.20 (Message Sequence Chart Converter)
• 7z.exe (7-Zip) Version: 16.02 (File Archiver)

Using these tools, you can generate on a Windows PC:

• CMSIS Software Pack using the batch file gen_pack.bat (located in ./CMSIS/Utilities). This batch file also generates the documentation.

• CMSIS Documentation using the batch file genDoc.bat (located in ./CMSIS/Doxygen).

The file ./CMSIS/DoxyGen/How2Doc.txt describes the rules for creating API documentation.

Issues and Labels

Please feel free to raise an issue on GitHub to report misbehavior (i.e. bugs) or start discussions about enhancements. This is your best way to interact directly with the maintenance team and the community. We encourage you to append implementation suggestions as this helps to decrease the workload of the very limited maintenance team.

We will be monitoring and responding to issues as best we can. Please attempt to avoid filing duplicates of open or closed items when possible. In the spirit of openness we will be tagging issues with the following:

• bug – We consider this issue to be a bug that will be investigated.

• wontfix - We appreciate this issue but decided not to change the current behavior.

• enhancement – Denotes something that will be implemented soon.

• future - Denotes something not yet schedule for implementation.

• out-of-scope - We consider this issue loosely related to CMSIS. It might by implemented outside of CMSIS. Let us know about your work.

• question – We have further questions to this issue. Please review and provide feedback.

• documentation - This issue is a documentation flaw that will be improved in future.

• review - This issue is under review. Please be patient.

• DONE - We consider this issue as resolved - please review and close it. In case of no further activity this issues will be closed after a week.
