<p>
The goal is to provide implementations of most standard POSIX OS interfaces
to support a rich, multi-threaded development environment for deeply embedded
processors.
</p>
NON-GOALS: (1) It is not a goal to provide the rich level of OS
features like those provided with Linux.
Small footprint is more important than features.
Standard compliance is more important than small footprint.
(2) There is no MMU-based support for processes.
At present, NuttX assumes a flat address space.

<p>
NuttX strives to achieve a high degree of standards compliance.
The primary governing standards are POSIX and ANSI standards.
Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOS's are
adopted for functionality not available under these standards
or for functionality that is not appropriate for the deeply-embedded
RTOS (such as <code>fork()</code>).
</p>
<p>
Because of this standards conformance, software developed under other
standard OSs (such as Linux) should port easily to NuttX.

<b>Look at all those files and features... How can it be a tiny OS?</b>.
The NuttX feature list (above) is fairly long and if you look at the NuttX
source tree, you will see that there are hundreds of source files comprising
NuttX. How can NuttX be a tiny OS with all of that?

<b>Lots of Features -- More can be smaller!</b>

<p>
The philosophy behind that NuttX is that lots of features are great... <i>BUT</i>
also that if you don't use those features, then you should not have to pay a penalty
for the unused features.
And, with NuttX, you don't! If you don't use a feature, it will not
be included in the final executable binary.
You only have to pay the penalty of increased footprint for the features
that you actually use.
</p>
<p>
Using a variety of technologies, NuttX can scale from the very tiny to
the moderate-size system. I have executed NuttX with some simple applications
in as little as 32Kb <i>total</i> memory (code and data).
On the other hand, typical, richly featured NuttX builds require more like 64Kb
(and if all of the features are used, this can push 100Kb).

<p>
One may be intimidated by the size NuttX source tree. There are hundreds of source files!
How can that be a tiny OS?
Actually, the large number of files is one of the tricks to keep NuttX small and
as scalable as possible.
Most files contain only a single function.
Sometimes just one tiny function with only a few lines of code.
Why?
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Static Libraries</b>.
Because in the NuttX build processed, objects are compiled and saved into
<i>static libraries</i> (<i>archives</i>).
Then, when the file executable is linked, only the object files that are needed
are extracted from the archive and added to the final executable.
By having many, many tiny source files, you can assure that no code that you do
not execute is ever included in the link.
And by having many, tiny source files you have better granularity --
if you don't use that tiny function of even just a few lines of code, it will
not be included in the binary.
</li>
</ul>

<b>Other Tricks</b>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><br></td>
<td>
<p>
As mentioned above, the use of many, tiny source files and linking from static
libraries keeps the size of NuttX down.
Other tricks used in NuttX include:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Configuration Files</b>.
Before you build NuttX, you must provide a configuration file that specifies
what features you plan to use and which features you do not.
This configuration file contains a long list of settings that control
what is built into NuttX and what is not.
There are hundreds of such settings
(see the <a href="NuttxPortingGuide.html#apndxconfigs">NuttX Porting Guide</a>
for a partial list that excludes platform specific settings).
These many, many configuration options allow NuttX to be highly tuned to
meet size requirements.
The downside to all of these configuration options is that it greatly
complicates the maintenance of NuttX -- but that is my problem, not yours.
</li>
<li>
<b>Weak Symbols</b>
The GNU toolchain supports <i>weak</i> symbols and these also help to keep
the size of NuttX down.
Weak symbols prevent object files from being drawn into the link even if they
are accessed from source code.
Careful use of weak symbols is another trick for keep unused code out of the
final binary.

</ul>

<p><b>AVR-Specific Issues</b>.
The basic AVR port is solid and biggest issue for using AVR is its tiny SRAM memory and its Harvard architecture.
Because of the Harvard architecture, constant data that resides to flash is inaccessible using "normal" memory reads and writes (only SRAM data can be accessed "normally").
Special AVR instructions are available for accessing data in FLASH, but these have not been integrated into the normal, general purpose OS.
</p>
<p>
Most NuttX test applications are console-oriented with lots of strings used for printf and debug output.
These strings are all stored in SRAM now due to these data accessing issues and even the smallest console-oriented applications can quickly fill a 4-8Kb memory.
So, in order for the AVR port to be useful, one of two things would need to be done:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
Don't use console applications that required lots of strings.
The basic AVR port is solid and your typical deeply embedded application should work fine.
Or,
</li>
<li>
Create a special version of printf that knows how to access strings that reside in FLASH (or EEPROM).
</li>
</ol>

<b>STATUS:</b>
This port is has completed all basic development, but there is more that needs to be done.
All code is complete for the basic NuttX port including header files for all AT32UC3* peripherals.
The untested AVR32 code was present in the 5.12 release of NuttX.
Since then, the basic RTOS port has solidified:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
The port successfully passes the NuttX OS test (apps/examples/ostest).
</li>
<li>
A NuttShell (NSH) configuration is in place (see the <a href="http://www.nuttx.org/NuttShell.html">NSH User Guide</a>).
Testing of that configuration has been postponed (because it got bumped by the Olimex LPC1766-STK port).
Current Status: I think I have a hardware problem with my serial port setup.
There is a good chance that the NSH port is complete and functional, but I am not yet able to demonstrate that.
At present, I get nothing coming in the serial RXD line (probably because the pins are configured wrong or I have the MAX232 connected wrong).
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The basic, port (including the verified apps/examples/ostest configuration) was be released in NuttX-5.13.
A complete port will include drivers for additional AVR32 UC3 devices -- like SPI and USB --- and will be available in a later release,
time permitting.

<b>Cygwin + GNU <code>make</code> + Windows Native Toolchain</b>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><br></td>

<p>
This is a tougher environment.
In this case, the Windows native toolchain is unaware of the
Cygwin <i>sandbox</i> and, instead, operates in the native Windows environment.
The primary difficulties with this are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Paths</b>.
Full paths for the native toolchain must follow Windows standards.
For example, the path <code>/home/my\ name/nuttx/include</code> my have to be
converted to something like <code>'C:\cygwin\home\my name\nuttx\include'</code>
to be usable by the toolchain.
</li>
<p>
Fortunately, this conversion is done simply using the <code>cygpath</code> utility.
</p>
<li>
<b>Symbolic Links</b>
NuttX depends on symbolic links to install platform-specific directories in the build system.
On Linux, true symbolic links are used.
On Cygwin, emulated symbolic links are used.
Unfortunately, for native Windows applications that operate outside of the
Cygwin <i>sandbox</i>, these symbolic links cannot be used.
</li>
<p>
The NuttX make system works around this limitation by copying the platform
specific directories in place.
These copied directories make work a little more complex, but otherwise work well.
</p>
<p><small>
NOTE: In this environment, it should be possible to use the NTFS <code>mklink</code> command to create links.
This should only require a minor modification to the build scripts (see <code>tools/winlink.sh</code> script).
</small></p>
<li>
<b>Dependencies</b>
NuttX uses the GCC compiler's <code>-M</code> option to generate make dependencies. These
dependencies are retained in files called <code>Make.deps</code> throughout the system.
For compilers other than GCC, there is no support for making dependencies in this way.
For Windows native GCC compilers, the generated dependencies are windows paths and not
directly usable in the Cygwin make. By default, dependencies are surpressed for these
compilers as well.
</li>
<p><small>
NOTE: dependencies are suppress by setting the make variable <code>MKDEPS</code> to point
to the do-nothing dependency script, <code>tools/mknulldeps.sh</code>.
Dependencies can be enabled for the Windows native GCC compilers by setting
<code>MKDEPS</code> to point to <code>$(TOPDIR)/tools/mkdeps.sh --winpaths $(TOPDIR)</code>.
</small></p>
</ul>
<p>
<b>Supported Windows Native Toolchains</b>.
At present, only the Zilog Z16F, z8Encore, and eZ80Acclaim ports use a non-GCC native Windows
toolchain(the Zilog ZDS-II toolchain).
Support for Windows native GCC toolchains (CodeSourcery and devkitARM) is currently implemented
for the NXP LPC214x, STMicro STR71x, and Luminary LMS6918 ARM ports.
(but could easily be extended to any other GCC-based platform with a small effort).

"Better solution would be replacing all <code>cygpath</code> references in <code>Makefiles </code> with <code>$(CONVPATH)</code> (or <code>${CONVPATH}</code> in shell scripts) and setting <code>CONVPATH</code> to <code>cygpath</code> or <code>winepath</code> regarding to currently used environment.

<p>
<b>Environment Dependencies</b>.
The primary environmental dependency of NuttX are (1) GNU make,
(2) bash scripting, and (3) Linux utilities (such as cat, sed, etc.).
If you have other platforms that support GNU make or make
utilities that are compatible with GNU make, then it is very
likely that NuttX would work in that environment as well (with some
porting effort). If GNU make is not supported, then some significant
modification of the Make system would be required.
</p>
<p>
<b>GNUWin32</b>.
For example, with suitable make system changes, it should be possible to
use native GNU tools (such as those from
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32/">GNUWin32</a>)
to build NuttX.
However, that environment has not been used as of this writing.
</p>
<p><small>
NOTE: One of the members on the <a href="http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/nuttx/">NuttX forum</a>
reported that they successful built NuttX using such a GNUWin32-based, Windows native environment.
They reported that the only necessary change was to the use the NTFS mklink command to create links
(see <code>tools/winlink.sh</code> script).

nuttx-6.7 2011-08-02 Gregory Nutt <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
* Makefile: Added a export target that will bundle up all of the NuttX
libraries, header files, and the startup object into an export-able
tarball.
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_can.h: Correct some typos in the CAN
register definitions.
* drivers/serial/serialirq.c: Correct an error that can occur if the
serial RX buffer becomes full. Data is now discarded in that case;
before, leaving data in the hardware would cause infinite interrupts
one most MCUs since you must read the data in order to clear the
interrupt.
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_can.c: Added a CAN driver contributed by
Li Zhuoyi (Lzyy).
* include/stddefs.h and sys/types: Added type wchar_t.
* fs/fat/fat_fat32dirent.c: Move all FAT directory operations to this
new file; Implement VFAT long file name support.
* fs/fat/fat_fat32dirent.c: The configuration CONFIG_FAT_LCNAMES has
been around for some time but never tested until now. This setting
will mimic the NT 8.3 file name behavior: File names or extensions
may be all upper or all lower case (but not mixed). If
CONFIG_FAT_LCNAMES is not selected, all filenames are strictly upper
case.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh2: Console is back on UART1; Added
examplex/nx as an NSH "built-in" command as a demonstration.
* fs/fat/fs_fat32dirent.c: Fix an important bug in the directory
allocation (fat_allocatedirentry()). I looks like it could be
initializing the wrong sectors! NOTE: This function was in
fs_fat32utils.c in earlier releases.
* arch/arm/src/stm32_sdio.c: Correct an important DMA-related bug;
SDIO transfer completion events and DMA completion eventes were
not being coordinated correctly.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh2: Enable FAT long file name support
* sched/sem_timedwait.c: Add the standard sem_timedwait() interface.
* graphics/nxfonts/nxfonts_getfont.c, nxfonts_bitmap.c,
Makefile.source, and include/nuttx/nxfonts.h: Support for multiple
fonts included. A new interface, nxf_getfonthandle() takes a font
ID and returns a handle that is now used at all other font interfaces
to specify which of the multiple fonts to use.
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_syscon.h: Fix typo (reported by Li Zhuoyi).
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh2: Extended to support two new commands:
'msconn' will connect the USB mass storage device; 'msdis' will
disconnect the USB storage device.
* tools/bdf-converter.c. This C file is used to build the bdf-converter
program. The bdf-converter program be used to convert fonts in Bitmap
Distribution Format (BDF) into fonts that can be used in the NX graphics
system.
* include/nuttx/nx: Move all NX header files from include/nuttx to
include/nuttx/nx.
* drivers/usbdev/usbdev_usbstorage.c and arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_usbdev.c:
Correct a memory leak when the USB mass storage driver is connected and
then disconnected from the target. The write requests were not being
freed. NOTE that the unregister logic in the STM32 needed to call
stm32_reset() in order to return the write requests to the USB mass
storage driver; it is possible that a similar but could exist for other
architectures.
* graphics/nxfonts/nxfonts_*.h: Add serveral more new fonts
* arch/z80/src/ez80/ez80_serial.c: Fix some errors in serial driver
setup for UART1 (submitted by Paul Osmialowski).
* drivers/input/tsc2007.c and include/nuttx/input/*: Add a generic NuttX
touchscreen interface. Add a driver for the TI TSC2007 touchscreen
controller.
* graphics/nxglib/lcd and fb: Add low level routines to set single pixels.
* lib/math/lib_b16atan2.c: Add a fixed precision atan2() function
* graphics/nxglib/nxglib_splitline.c: Add logic to divide a wide line into
trapezoidal components.
* graphics/nxmu/nx_drawline.c, graphics/nxsu/nx_drawline.c,
graphics/nxtk/nxtk_drawlinewindow.c, graphics/nxtk/nxtk_drawlinetoolbar.c:
Add new line drawing interfaces (untested).
apps-6.7 2011-08-02 Gregory Nutt <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
* apps/examples/nx and nxtext: These examples can now be built as NSH
"built-in" commands.
* apps/examples/nxhello: The simplest graphics example: It just says
"Hello, World!" in the center of the display. This example can also be
built as an NSH "built-in" command.
* apps/examples/nx, ntext, and nxhello: All updated to use the new
NuttX font interfaces.
* apps/examples/nximage: Another super simple graphics example: It just puts
the NuttX logo in the center of the display. This example can also be
built as an NSH "built-in" command.
* apps/examples/usbstorage: Can now be built as two NSH "built-in" commands:
'msconn' will connect the USB mass storage device; 'msdis' will disconnect
the USB storage device.
* apps/examples/nx*: All NX header files moved from nuttx/include/nuttx to
nuttx/include/nuttx/nx.
* apps/examples/usbstorage: Added instrumentation to monitor memory usage
to check for memory leaks in the USB storage driver.
* apps/examples/nxhello/nxhello_bkgd.c: Fix handling of allocated glyph
memory.
pascal-1.0 2011-05-15 Gregory Nutt <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
* nuttx/: The Pascal add-on module now installs and builds under the
apps/interpreters directory. This means that the pascal-2.1 module is
incompatible with will all releases of NuttX prior to nuttx-6.0 where the
apps/ module was introduced.
buildroot-1.10 2011-05-06 <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
* Add patch submitted by Dimiter Georgiev to work around problems in building
GDB 6.8 with versions of Cygwin > 1.7.
* configs/i486-defconfig-4.3.3 - Builds an i486 cross development toolchain
using gcc 4.3.3. Why wouldyou want such a thing? On Linux, of course,
such a thing is not needed because you can use the installed GCC to build
i486 ELF binaries. But that will not work under Cygwin! The Cygwin
toolchain (and probably MinGW), build DOS MZ format executables (i.e.,
.exe files). That is probably not usable for most NuttX targets.
Instead, you should use this i486-elf-gcc to generate true ELF binaries
under Cygwin.
* Makefile - Alter copy arguments to avoid permissions problems when
copying NuttX header files.
* toolchain/nxflat/nxflat.mk and Makefile - Fix include paths.
* toolchain/gcc/3.3.6 - Added a patch to fixed compilation error on Ubuntu
9.10.
* toolchain/nxflat/Makefile - Correct static library link order.
* configs/arm920t-defconfig-4.3.3 - Enable support for NXFLAT tools.
* toolchain/binutils/2.21 and toolchain/gcc/4.5.2 - Add support for GCC
4.5.2 with binutils 2.21.
* configs/arm920t-eabi-defconfig-4.5.2 - Add a configuration to build a
GCC 4.5.2 EABI ARM toolchain for the ARM920t.
