+nuttx-5.10
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This is the 57th release of NuttX. This release includes a combination of
+some new features as well as several bugfixes. New features include:
+
+ * TI/Luminary Stellaris LM3S9B96. Header file changes contributed by
+ Tiago Maluta.
+ * TI/Luminary Stellaris LM3S8962. Header file changes and support for
+ the Stellaris LM3S8962 Ethernet+CAN Evaluation Board contributed by
+ Larry Arnold.
+ * On-Demand Paging Support. The basic logic for the On-Demand Paging
+ feature is complete, implemented for the NXP LPC3131, and partially
+ tested. See http://www.nuttx.org/NuttXDemandPaging.html. Some additional
+ test infrastructure will be needed in order to complete the verification.
+ See configs/ea3131/README.txt for details.
+ * Two Pass Build Support. The make system now supports a two pass build
+ where a relocatable, partially linked object is created on the first
+ pass and that object is linked with the NuttX libraris to produce the
+ final executable on the second pass. This two pass build is currently
+ only used to support the On-Demand paging feature: The first pass
+ link forces critical logic into the locked text region; the second pass
+ builds the NuttX executable more-or-less as normal.
+ * CONFIG_APP_DIR. Generalized the way in which applications are built
+ and linked with NuttX. The new configuration CONFIG_APP_DIR replaces
+ CONFIG_EXAMPLE. CONFIG_EXAMPLE used to identify the sub-directory within
+ the NuttX examples/ directory that held the example application to be
+ built. That made it awkward to configure to build an application that
+ resides outside of the NuttX examples/ directory. CONFIG_APP_DIR is
+ more general; it can be used to refer to any directory containing the
+ application to be built.
+
+ For people who have their own configurations and/or Makefiles,
+ you will need to make a couple of changes:
+
+ - Replace all occurrences of CONFIG_EXAMPLE=foobar with
+ CONFIG_APP_DIR=examples/foobar in all of the configuration
+ files.
+ - Replace any occurrences of examples/$(CONFIG_EXAMPLE) with
+ $(CONFIG_APP_DIR)
+ - Replace any occurrences of lib$(CONFIG_EXAMPLE)$(LIBEXT)
+ with libapp$(LIBEXT) in your Makefiles.
+ - Check any other occurrences of CONFIG_EXAMPLE.
+
+ * Several bugfixes are included as well as code changes to eliminate
+ some warnings. See the ChangeLog for details.
