Additional bugfixes, name changes, and other differences as detailed in the ChangeLog. +NuttX-6.17 +^^^^^^^^^^ + +The 84th release of NuttX, Version 6.17, was made on April 14, 2012, +and is available for download from the SourceForge website. Note +that release consists of two tarballs: nuttx-6.17.tar.gz and +apps-6.17.tar.gz. Both may be needed (see the top-level nuttx/README.txt +file for build information). + +New features and extended functionality: + + * Networking: Additional low-level, thread-independent socket + interfaces (for NFS client support). + + * RTC: Added a new interface call clock_synchronize(). This function + will reload the system time from an RTC and is required when the + system re-awakens from certain deep-sleep modes. + + * Graphics: Add NxConsole. This is a character device driver that + wraps an NX window and can be re-directed for stdout. This allows, + for example, a pop-up graphics window that contains a NuttShell (NSH) + session. A test of NxConsole is available at apps/examples/nxconsole. + + * Watchdog Drivers: Added an interface definition an "upper half" + driver to support watchdog timers. + + * Calypso: Support for TI Calypso-based cellphones (as supported by + the Osmocom-BB project) was contributed by members of the Osmocom-BB + team. This includes configurations for the Compal e88 and e99 phones. + + * USB Device Interface: Needed to extend the USB device interface + because there was no mechanism for passing endpoint OUT data that + may need to accompany a setup request. + + * STM32 drivers: Added some power management controls for entering + reduced power consumption states. An OTG FS driver was completed + and partially verified (this driver seems to be functional but since + it has been test so lightly, it might better be listed in the + next section "Work in progress"). + + * PIC32 drivers: The PIC32 Ethernet driver is now stable. The PIC32 + USB device controller driver is now functional (but not yet stable). + + * PIC32 boards: Added support for the Sure DB-DP11212 PIC32 General + Purpose Demo Board. There is now a PIC32 Starter Kit that + provides NSH only through a Telnet connection. + + * Build System: Some header files were moved into include/nuttx. + The goal is to move any non-standard header files to include/nuttx + or include/arch. Moved include/math.h to include/nuttx/math.h; + this file is now only instantiated as the 'system' math.h if + CONFIG_ARCH_MATH_H=y is defined. + + * Tools: Added tools/cmpconfig.c, a tool for comparing two + configuration files. + +Work in progress. This release includes some partially completed +work that is still not ready for prime time. + + * NFS Client: Work is progressing on support for an NFS client + file system. This is a port of the BSD NFS client file system + that is being done by Jose Pablo Rojas V. + + * Automated Configuration: Automated configuration based on the + kconfig-frontends tool is being incorporated into the build + system. The configuration is still not complete enough for + general use in this release. + + * STM32 Drivers: Added files that will (eventually) hold an STM32 + OTG FS host driver. This is still a work in progress. + +Bugfixes: + + * Networking: Corrected a deadlock that only occurred when + executing the NSH 'ifconfig' command over Telnet. + + * File system: Fix incorrect return errno value from read() when + the file is opened write-only. + + * Graphics: Fix several compilation errors that have crept into the + multi-user NX server because of lack of use. + + * STM32: In order to use CAN2, both CAN1 and CAN2 clocking must be + enabled. Fixed a troublesome bug in the STM32 F4 I2C driver that + resulting in timeouts. + + * LPC17xx: Fixes for errors the crept in the LPC17xx DAC logic + Contributed by Lzyy). + + * Build System: Reordered the link command line to account for new + versions of libgcc.a that require symbols from the application + (abort()). |
