- This release includes two partially completed ports, several new features, and a
- couple of important bug fixes. The two partially completed ports are:
- <ul>
- <li>The STMicro STR71x processor and configuration for the Olimex STR-P711 board, and</li>
- <li>The Hitachi SH-1 using the SH1_LCEVB1 (SH-1/US7032EVB1) board.</li>
- </ul>
-</p>
+ This release includes the following new feature:
<p>
- Progress on these ports is stalled (as detailed in the ChangeLog).
-</p>
-<p>
- The new features focus primarily on management of block devices and extensions of
- the NuttShell (NSH). These new features include:
- <ul>
- <li>A loop device that converts a file into a block device,</li>
- <li>A block to character (BCH) driver that allow access a block device as if it were character device, </li>
- <li>Added strcasecmp() and strncasecmp() libc functions, and </li>
- <li>Added the 'dd' and 'losetup' commands to NSH. These commands (along with mkfatfs and mount),
- give good managment of filesystems on the target.</li>
- </ul>
-</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Add <code>poll()</code> and <code>select()</code> APIs that may be used to monitor for data
+ availability on character devices or TCP/IP sockets.
+ </li>
+ <li>Implemented support TCP/IP connection backlog.
+ This allows <code>poll()</code>/<code>select()</code> to wake-up on new connections to a listener socket.
+ </li>
+ <li>Added definition of a framebuffer driver and implement framebuffer drivers for the
+ simulated platform and the TI DM320 (untested as of the inital check-in).
+ </li>
+ <li>Partially developed a graphics framework based on the framebuffer drivers, however,
+ this will not be ready for use for a few more release.
+ Currently this includes only a few color conversion routines and some rasteizing functions.
+ A tiny windowing system is under development but not ready for check-in yet.
+ <li>Added support for fixed precision math.
+ </li>
+ <li>Added support for outgoing multicast packets.
+ </li>
+</ul>
<p>
Several bugs were fixed, the most important of which are:
- <ul>
- <li>Fixd a race condition workaround delay in LPC214X SPI logic. This was also
- the cause of some bad MMC/SD performance on that platform.</li>
- <li>Fixed a recently introduced FAT file system problem: It would mount a (invalid)
- FAT file system even if the medium is not formatted!</li>
- <li>Corrected two iother important errors in the FAT lseek implementation:
- (1) the sectors-per-cluster value was being reset to "1" and (2) important
- lseek logic was omitted when the seek position was zero.</li>
- </ul>
</p>
+ <li>Fixed an important bug in the TCP/IP buffering logic.
+ When TCP/IP read-ahead is enabled and not recv() is in-place when a TCP/IP packet is received,
+ the packet is placed into a read-ahead buffer.
+ However, the old contents of the read-ahead buffer were not being cleared and old data would
+ contaminate the newly received buffer.
+ </li>
+ <li>Changed the behavior of the serial driver read.
+ It now returns data as it is available rather than waiting for the full requested read size.
+ This makes functions like <code>fgetc()</code> work much more smoothly.
+ </li>
<p>
- The FAT filesystem has had many bugs fixed in it and, I think, is now maturing
- and becoming stable.

- * Added port for the STMicro STR71x processor and configuration for the Olimex STR-P711
- board (STR71x testing is stalled because I have been unable to get OpenOCD to
- communicate with my JTAG wiggler on Linux).
- * Fix race condition workaround delay in LPC214X SPI logic. This was also the cause of the
- very bad MMC/SD performance.
- * Began port of the Hitachi SH-1 using the SH-1/US7032EVB1 board
- * Re-built all configurations that use SDCC and Zilog toolchains to make sure they still
- build (they didn't, but they do now).
- * Fixed several erroneous "list empty" checks in the CAN driver.
- * Hitachi SH-1 passes (reduced) examples/ostest; the examples/nsh test still fails.
- There are remaining instabilities that make the port un-usable. The nature of these is
- not understood; the behavior is that certain SH-1 instructions stop working as advertised.
- This could be a silicon problem, some pipeline issue that is not handled properly by the
- gcc 3.4.5 toolchain (which has very limit SH-1 support to begin with), or perhaps with the
- CMON debugger. At any rate, I have exhausted all of the energy that I am willing to put
- into this cool old processor for the time being.
- * Renamed configuration item CONFIG_PROC_STACK_SIZE as CONFIG_IDLETHREAD_STACKSIZE: It now
- only controls the size of the stack for the IDLE thread. Added CONFIG_USERMAIN_STACKSIZE:
- This is the size of stack used with the user_start() thread is created. The two stacks
- no longer have to be the same.
- * Add a loop device that converts a file into a block device.
- * Each NSH command can not be disabled through a configuration setting. All of these
- settings make the configuration of NSH potentially complex but also allow it to squeeze
- into very small memory footprints.
- * Added a block to character (BCH) driver. This is kind of the reverse of the loop
- device; it allows you access a block device like a character device.
- * NSH: Added the 'dd' command
- * NSH: Added the 'losetup' command
- * Fixed a FAT bug: After recent changes, it would mount a (invalid) FAT file system
- even if the medium is not formatted!
- * Corrected two important errors in FAT lseek implementation: (1) the sectors-per-cluster
- value was being reset to '1' and (2) important lseek logic was omitted when the seek
- position was zero.
- * Fixed a bug in getopt(). It would fail if on certain combinations of terminal argument
- types.

+ * Add examples/poll for testing poll() and select()
+ * Fix hostile behavior of getc, fgetc, getchar, etc.: the serial driver was waiting for a
+ full buffer of read data before return. This means that getc would stall when it needed
+ to refill the input buffer. The old behavior (read full blocks) might be useful in other
