This "generic" configuration is not very usable +out-of-box, but can be used as a starting point to creating new configs with +similar STM32 high-density value line chips. As a bare-minimum this config only +specifies one LED (on PA0) and one button (on PA1), you should change that to +match your hardware (some details below and in source files). + +Contents +======== + + - Development Environment + - GNU Toolchain Options + - IDEs + - NuttX EABI "buildroot" Toolchain + - NuttX OABI "buildroot" Toolchain + - NXFLAT Toolchain + - LEDs + - UARTs + - "STMicro STM32F100RC generic" specific Configuration Options + - Configurations + +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. + +GNU Toolchain Options +===================== + + Toolchain Configurations + ------------------------ + The NuttX make system has been modified to support the following different + toolchain options. + + 1. The CodeSourcery GNU toolchain, + 2. The Atollic Toolchain, + 3. The devkitARM GNU toolchain, + 4. Raisonance GNU toolchain, or + 5. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below). + + All testing has been conducted using the CodeSourcery toolchain for Windows. To use + the Atollic, devkitARM, Raisonance GNU, or NuttX buildroot 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_ATOLLIC=y : The Atollic toolchain under Windows + 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 change the default toolchain, then you may also have to modify the PATH in + the setenv.sh file if your make cannot find the tools. + + NOTE: the CodeSourcery (for Windows), Atollic, 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 + + The CodeSourcery Toolchain (2009q1) + ----------------------------------- + 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. + + The Atollic "Pro" and "Lite" Toolchain + -------------------------------------- + One problem that I had with the Atollic toolchains is that the provide a gcc.exe + and g++.exe in the same bin/ file as their ARM binaries. If the Atollic bin/ path + appears in your PATH variable before /usr/bin, then you will get the wrong gcc + when you try to build host executables. This will cause to strange, uninterpretable + errors build some host binaries in tools/ when you first make. + + The Atollic "Lite" Toolchain + ---------------------------- + The free, "Lite" version of the Atollic toolchain does not support C++ nor + does it support ar, nm, objdump, or objdcopy. If you use the Atollic "Lite" + toolchain, you will have to set: + + CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=n + + In order to compile successfully. Otherwise, you will get errors like: + + "C++ Compiler only available in TrueSTUDIO Professional" + + The make may then fail in some of the post link processing because of some of + the other missing tools. The Make.defs file replaces the ar and nm with + the default system x86 tool versions and these seem to work okay. Disable all + of the following to avoid using objcopy: + + CONFIG_RRLOAD_BINARY=n + CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=n + CONFIG_MOTOROLA_SREC=n + CONFIG_RAW_BINARY=n + + devkitARM + --------- + The devkitARM toolchain includes a version of MSYS make. Make sure that the + 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. With RIDE, I have to build NuttX + one time from the Cygwin command line in order to obtain the pre-built + startup object needed by RIDE. + +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 stm32f100rc_generic/<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. + +LEDs +==== + +It is asumed that STMicro STM32F100RC generic board board has one LED on PA0. +You should configure the port and pin number in +configs/stm32f100rc_generic/src/stm32f100rc_internal.h. This LED is 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 LED is used +to encode OS-related events as follows: + + SYMBOL Meaning LED1* + green + ------------------- ----------------------- ------- + LED_STARTED NuttX has been started ON + LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated ON + LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled ON + LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created ON + LED_INIRQ In an interrupt ON + LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler ON + LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed OFF + LED_PANIC The system has crashed OFF + +So basically if the LED is off it means that there is a problem. + +UART +==== + +Default USART/UART Configuration +-------------------------------- + +USART2 is enabled in all configurations (see */defconfig).
