# Examples ### Selecting Examples The examples directory contains several sample applications that can be linked with NuttX. The specific example is selected in the `boards////configs//defconfig` file via the `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_xyz` setting where `xyz` is the name of the example. For example: ```conf CONFIG_EXAMPLES_HELLO=y ``` Selects the `examples/hello` _Hello, World!_ example. ### Built-In Functions Some of the examples may be built as _built-in_ functions that can be executed at run time (rather than as NuttX _main_ programs). These _built-in_ examples can be also be executed from the NuttShell (NSH) command line. In order to configure these built-in NSH functions, you have to set up the following: - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Enable support for external registered, _named_ applications that can be executed from the NSH command line (see `apps/README.md` for more information). ## `adc` Read from ADC A mindlessly simple test of an ADC devices. It simply reads from the ADC device and dumps the data to the console forever. This test depends on these specific ADC/NSH configurations settings (your specific ADC settings might require additional settings). - `CONFIG_ADC` – Enabled ADC support. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the ADC test as an NSH built-in function. Default: Built as a standalone program. Specific configuration options for this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ADC_DEVPATH` – The default path to the ADC device. Default: `/dev/adc0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ADC_NSAMPLES` – This number of samples is collected and the program terminates. Default: Samples are collected indefinitely. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ADC_GROUPSIZE` – The number of samples to read at once. Default: `4`. ## `ajoystick` Analog Joystick This is a simple test of the analog joystick driver. See details about this driver in `nuttx/include/nuttx/input/ajoystick.h`. Configuration Pre-requisites: - `CONFIG_AJOYSTICK` – The analog joystick driver. Example Configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_AJOYSTICK` – Enabled the analog joystick example. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_AJOYSTICK_DEVNAME` – Joystick device name. Default `/dev/adjoy0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_AJOYSTICK_SIGNO` – Signal used to signal the test application.

Dependencies: - `CONFIG_RTC_DRIVER` – RTC driver must be initialized to allow user space access to the RTC. - `CONFIG_RTC_ALARM` – Support for RTC alarms must be enabled. Configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ALARM` – Enable the RTC driver alarm test. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ALARM_PROGNAME` – This is the name of the program that will be used when the NSH ELF program is installed. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ALARM_PRIORITY` – Alarm daemon priority. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ALARM_STACKSIZE` – Alarm daemon stack size. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ALARM_DEVPATH` – RTC device path (`/dev/rtc0`). - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ALARM_SIGNO` – Alarm signal. ## `apa102` Rainbow on `APA102` LED Strip Rainbow example for `APA102` LED Strip. ## `bastest` Bas BASIC Interpreter This directory contains a small program that will mount a ROMFS file system containing the BASIC test files extracted from the Bas `2.4` release. See `examples/bastest/README.md` for licensing and usage information. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BASTEST_DEVMINOR` – The minor device number of the ROMFS block driver. For example, the `N` in `/dev/ramN`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the BASIC files to be tested. Default: `0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BASTEST_DEVPATH` – The path to the ROMFS block driver device. This must match `EXAMPLES_BASTEST_DEVMINOR`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the BASIC files to be tested. Default: `/dev/ram0`. ## `bridge` Network Bridge A simple test of a system with multiple networks. It simply echoes all UDP packets received on network `1` and network `2` to network `2` and network `1`, respectively. Interface `1` and interface may or may not lie on the same network. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE` – Enables the simple UDP bridge test. There identical configurations for each of the two networks, `NETn` where `n` refers to the network being configured `n={1,2}`. Let `m` refer to the other network. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_IFNAME` – The register name of the network `n` device. Must match the previously registered driver name and must not be the same as other network device name, `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETm_IFNAME`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_RECVPORT` – Network `n` listen port number. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_SNDPORT` – Network `2` send port number. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_IOBUFIZE` – Size of the network `n` UDP send/receive I/O buffer. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_STACKSIZE` – Network `n` daemon stacksize. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_PRIORITY` – Network `n` daemon task priority. If used as a NSH add-on, then it is assumed that initialization of both networks was performed externally prior to the time that this test was started. Otherwise, the following options are available: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_NOMAC` – Select of the network `n` hardware does not have a built-in MAC address. If selected, the MAC address. provided by `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_MACADDR` will be used to assign the MAC address to the network n device. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_DHCPC` – Use DHCP Client to get the network n IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_IPADDR` – If `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_DHCPC` is not selected, then this is the fixed IP address for network `n`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_DRIPADDR` – Network `n` default router IP address (Gateway). - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_BRIDGE_NETn_NETMASK` – Network `n` mask. ## `buttons` Read GPIO Buttons To be provided. ## `can` CAN Device Test If the CAN device is configured in loopback mode, then this example can be used to test the CAN device in loop back mode. It simple sinces a sequence of CAN messages and verifies that those messages are returned exactly as sent. This test depends on these specific CAN/NSH configurations settings (your specific CAN settings might require additional settings). - `CONFIG_CAN` – Enables CAN support. - `CONFIG_CAN_LOOPBACK` – A CAN driver may or may not support a loopback mode for testing. The STM32 CAN driver does support loopback mode. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the CAN test as an NSH built-in function. Default: Built as a standalone program. Specific configuration options for this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_CAN_DEVPATH` – The path to the CAN device. Default: `/dev/can0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_CAN_NMSGS` – This number of CAN message is collected and the program terminates. Default: messages are sent and received indefinitely. The default behavior assumes loopback mode. Messages are sent, then read and verified. The behavior can be altered for other kinds of testing where the test only sends or received (but does not verify) can messages. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_CAN_READONLY` – Only receive messages. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_CAN_WRITEONLY` – Only send messages. ## `canard` Example application for `canutils/libcarnard`. ## `cctype` Verifies all possible inputs for all functions defined in the header file `cctype`. ## `chat` AT over TTY Demonstrates AT chat functionality over a TTY device. This is useful with AT modems, for example, to establish a `pppd` connection (see the related `pppd` example). Moreover, some AT modems – such as ones made by u-blox – have an internal TCP/IP stack, often with an implementation of TLS/SSL. In such cases the chat utility can be used to configure the internal TCP/IP stack, establish socket connections, set up security (e.g., download base64-encoded certificates to the modem), and perform data exchange through sockets over the TTY device. Useful configuration parameters: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_CHAT_PRESET[0..3]` – preset chat scripts. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_CHAT_TTY_DEVNODE` – TTY device node name. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_CHAT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` – default receive timeout. ## `configdata` This is a Unit Test for the MTD configuration data driver. ## `cpuhog` Keep CPU Busy Attempts to keep the system busy by passing data through a pipe in loop back mode. This may be useful if you are trying run down other problems that you think might only occur when the system is very busy. ## `cordic` A simple test of the CORDIC character driver. ## `dac` Write to DAC This is a tool for writing values to DAC device. ## `dhcpd` DHCP Server This examples builds a tiny DHCP server for the target system. **Note**: For test purposes, this example can be built as a host-based DHCPD server. This can be built as follows: ```bash cd examples/dhcpd make -f Makefile.host TOPDIR= ``` NuttX configuration settings: - `CONFIG_NET=y` – of course. - `CONFIG_NET_UDP=y` – UDP support is required for DHCP (as well as various other UDP-related configuration settings). - `CONFIG_NET_BROADCAST=y` – UDP broadcast support is needed. - `CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y` – The networking library is needed. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DHCPD_NOMAC` – (May be defined to use software assigned MAC) See also `CONFIG_NETUTILS_DHCPD_*` settings described elsewhere and used in `netutils/dhcpd/dhcpd.c`. These settings are required to described the behavior of the daemon. ## `discover` UDP Discover Daemon This example exercises `netutils/discover` utility. This example initializes and starts the UDP discover daemon. This daemon is useful for discovering devices in local networks, especially with DHCP configured devices. It listens for UDP broadcasts which also can include a device class so that groups of devices can be discovered. It is also possible to address all classes with a kind of broadcast discover. This example will automatically be built as an NSH built-in if `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` is selected. Otherwise, it will be a standalone program with entry point `discover_main`. NuttX configuration settings: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DISCOVER_DHCPC` – DHCP Client. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DISCOVER_NOMAC` – Use canned MAC address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DISCOVER_IPADDR` – Target IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DISCOVER_DRIPADDR` – Router IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DISCOVER_NETMASK` – Network Mask. ## `djoystick` Discrete Joystick This is a simple test of the discrete joystick driver. See details about this driver in `nuttx/include/nuttx/input/djoystick.h`. Configuration Pre-requisites: - `CONFIG_INPUT_DJOYSTICK` – The discrete joystick driver. Example Configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DJOYSTICK` – Enabled the discrete joystick example. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DJOYSTICK_DEVNAME` – Joystick device name. Default `/dev/djoy0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_DJOYSTICK_SIGNO` – Signal used to signal the test application. Default `13`. ## `elf` ELF loader This example builds a small ELF loader test case. This includes several test programs under `examples/elf` tests. These tests are build using the relocatable ELF format and installed in a ROMFS file system. At run time, each program in the ROMFS file system is executed. Requires `CONFIG_ELF`. Other configuration options: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ELF_DEVMINOR` – The minor device number of the ROMFS block driver. For example, the `N` in `/dev/ramN`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ELF_DEVPATH` – The path to the ROMFS block driver device. This must match `EXAMPLES_ELF_DEVMINOR`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `/dev/ram0`. **Notes**: 1. `CFLAGS` should be provided in `CELFFLAGS`. RAM and FLASH memory regions may require long allcs. For ARM, this might be: ```makefile CELFFLAGS = $(CFLAGS) -mlong-calls ``` Similarly for C++ flags which must be provided in `CXXELFFLAGS`. 2. Your top-level `nuttx/Make.defs` file must also include an appropriate definition, `LDELFFLAGS`, to generate a relocatable ELF object. With GNU LD, this should include `-r` and `-e main` (or `_main` on some platforms). ```makefile LDELFFLAGS = -r -e main ``` If you use GCC to link, you make also need to include `-nostdlib` or `-nostartfiles` and `-nodefaultlibs`. 3. This example also requires `genromfs`. `genromfs` can be build as part of the nuttx toolchain. Or can built from the `genromfs` sources that can be found in the NuttX tools repository (`genromfs-0.5.2.tar.gz`). In any event, the `PATH` variable must include the path to the genromfs executable. 4. ELF size: The ELF files in this example are, be default, quite large because they include a lot of _build garbage_. You can greatly reduce the size of the ELF binaries are using the `objcopy --strip-unneeded` command to remove un-necessary information from the ELF files. 5. Simulator. You cannot use this example with the NuttX simulator on Cygwin. That is because the Cygwin GCC does not generate ELF file but rather some Windows-native binary format. If you really want to do this, you can create a NuttX x86 buildroot toolchain and use that be build the ELF executables for the ROMFS file system. 6. Linker scripts. You might also want to use a linker scripts to combine sections better. An example linker script is at `nuttx/binfmt/libelf/gnu-elf.ld`. That example might have to be tuned for your particular linker output to position additional sections correctly. The GNU LD `LDELFFLAGS` then might be: ```makefile LDELFFLAGS = -r -e main -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libelf/gnu-elf.ld ``` ## `fb` Framebuffer A simple test of the framebuffer character driver. ## `flash_test` SMART Flash This example performs a SMART flash block device test. This test performs a sector allocate, read, write, free and garbage collection test on a SMART MTD block device. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FLASH_TEST=y` – Enables the FLASH Test. Dependencies: - `CONFIG_MTD_SMART=y` – SMART block driver support. - `CONFIG_BUILD_PROTECTED=n` and `CONFIG_BUILD_KERNEL=n` – This test uses internal OS interfaces and so is not available in the NUTTX kernel builds. ## `foc` FOC motor controller A FOC motor controller based on the NuttX FOC driver and the NuttX FOC library. See `apps/foc/README.md` for more information. ## `flowc` Serial Hardware Flow Control A simple test of serial hardware flow control. ## `ft80x` FT80x GUI Chip This examples has ports of several FTDI demos for the FTDI/BridgeTek FT80x GUI chip. As an example configuration, see `nuttx/boards/arm/stm32/viewtool-stm32f107/configs/ft80x/defconfig`. ## `ftpc` FTP Client This is a simple FTP client shell used to exercise the capabilities of the FTPC library (`apps/netutils/ftpc`). From NSH, the startup command sequence is as follows. This is only an example, your configuration could have different mass storage devices, mount paths, and FTP directories: ``` nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /tmp # Mount the SD card at /tmp nsh> cd /tmp # cd into the /tmp directory nsh> ftpc # Start the FTP client nfc> login # Log into the FTP server nfc> help # See a list of FTP commands ``` where `` is the IP address or hostname of the FTP server and `` is an optional port number. **Note**: By default, FTPC uses `readline` to get data from `stdin`. So your defconfig file must have the following build path: ```conf CONFIG_SYSTEM_READLINE=y ``` **Note**: If you use the ftpc task over a telnet NSH connection, then you should set the following configuration item: ```conf CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPC_FGETS=y ``` By default, the FTPC client will use `readline()` to get characters from the console. Readline includes and command-line editor and echos characters received in stdin back through `stdout`. Neither of these behaviors are desire-able if Telnet is used. You may also want to define the following in your configuration file. Otherwise, you will have not feedback about what is going on: ```conf CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES=y CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y CONFIG_DEBUG_FTPC=y ``` ## `ftpd` FTP daemon This example exercises the FTPD daemon at `apps/netutils/ftpd`. Below are configurations specific to the FTPD example (the FTPD daemon itself may require other configuration options as well). - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD` – Enable the FTPD example. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_PRIO` – Priority of the FTP daemon. Default: `SCHED_PRIORITY_DEFAULT`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_STACKSIZE` – Stack size allocated for the FTP daemon. Default: `2048`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_NONETINIT` – Define to suppress configuration of the network by `apps/examples/ftpd`. You would need to suppress network configuration if the network is configuration prior to running the example. NSH always initializes the network so if `CONFIG_NSH_NETINIT` is defined, so is `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_NONETINIT` (se it does not explicitly need to be defined in that case): - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the FTPD daemon example test as an NSH built-in function. By default the FTPD daemon will be built as a standalone application. If `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_NONETINIT` is not defined, then the following may be specified to customized the network configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_NOMAC` – If the hardware has no MAC address of its own, define this `=y` to provide a bogus address for testing. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_IPADDR` – The target IP address. Default `10.0.0.2`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_DRIPADDR` – The default router address. Default: `10.0.0.1`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_FTPD_NETMASK` – The network mask. Default: `255.255.255.0`. TCP networking support is required. So are pthreads so this must be set to 'n': - `CONFIG_DISABLE_PTHREAD` – `pthread` support is required. Other FTPD configuration options they may be of interest: - `CONFIG_FTPD_VENDORID` – The vendor name to use in FTP communications. Default: `NuttX`. - `CONFIG_FTPD_SERVERID` – The server name to use in FTP communications. Default: `NuttX FTP Server`. - `CONFIG_FTPD_CMDBUFFERSIZE` – The maximum size of one command. Default: `512` bytes. - `CONFIG_FTPD_DATABUFFERSIZE` – The size of the I/O buffer for data transfers. Default: `2048` bytes. - `CONFIG_FTPD_WORKERSTACKSIZE` – The stacksize to allocate for each FTP daemon worker thread. Default: `2048` bytes. The following netutils libraries should be enabled in your `defconfig` file: ```conf CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y CONFIG_NETUTILS_FTPD=y ``` ## `gpio` GPIO Read and Write A simple `test/example` of the NuttX GPIO driver. ## `hello` Hello World This is the mandatory, _Hello, World!!_ example. It is little more than `examples/null` with a single `printf` statement. Really useful only for bringing up new NuttX architectures. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the _Hello, World_ example as an NSH built-in application. ## `helloxx` Hello World in C++ This is C++ version of the _Hello, World!!_ example. It is intended only to verify that the C++ compiler is functional, that basic C++ library support is available, and that class are instantiated correctly. NuttX configuration prerequisites: - `CONFIG_HAVE_CXX` – Enable C++ Support. Optional NuttX configuration settings: - `CONFIG_HAVE_CXXINITIALIZE` – Enable support for static constructors (may not be available on all platforms). NuttX configuration settings specific to this example: - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the helloxx example as a _built-in_ that can be executed from the NSH command line. Also needed: - `CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=y` And you may have to tinker with the following to get libxx to compile properly: - `CCONFIG_ARCH_SIZET_LONG=y` or `=n`. The argument of the `new` operators should take a type of `size_t`. But `size_t` has an unknown underlying. In the nuttx `sys/types.h` header file, `size_t` is typed as `uint32_t` (which is determined by architecture-specific logic). But the C++ compiler may believe that `size_t` is of a different type resulting in compilation errors in the operator. Using the underlying integer type Instead of `size_t` seems to resolve the compilation issues. ## `hidkbd` USB Host HID keyboard This is a simple test to `debug/verify` the USB host HID keyboard class driver. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_HIDKBD_DEFPRIO` – Priority of _waiter_ thread. Default: `50`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_HIDKBD_STACKSIZE` – Stacksize of _waiter_ thread. Default `1024`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_HIDKBD_DEVNAME` – Name of keyboard device to be used. Default: `/dev/kbda`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_HIDKBD_ENCODED` – Decode special key press events in the user buffer. In this case, the example coded will use the interfaces defined in `include/nuttx/input/kbd_codec.h` to decode the returned keyboard data. These special keys include such things as up/down arrows, home and end keys, etc. If this not defined, only 7-bit printable and control ASCII characters will be provided to the user. Requires `CONFIG_HIDKBD_ENCODED` and `CONFIG_LIBC_KBDCODEC`. ## `igmp` Trivial IGMP This is a trivial test of the NuttX IGMP capability. It present it does not do much of value – Much more is needed in order to verify the IGMP features! - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_IGMP_NOMAC` – Set if the hardware has no MAC address; one will be assigned. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_IGMP_IPADDR` – Target board IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_IGMP_DRIPADDR` – Default router address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_IGMP_NETMASK` – Network mask. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_IGMP_GRPADDR` – Multicast group address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NETLIB` – The networking library is needed. ## `i2cchar` Transfer Through I2C A mindlessly simple test of an I2C driver. It reads an write garbage data to the I2C transmitter and/or received as fast possible. This test depends on these specific I2S/AUDIO/NSH configurations settings (your specific I2S settings might require additional settings). - `CONFIG_I2S` – Enabled I2S support. - `CONFIG_AUDIO` – Enabled audio support. - `CONFIG_DRIVERS_AUDIO` – Enable audio device support. - `CONFIG_AUDIO_I2SCHAR` – Enabled support for the I2S character device. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the I2S test as an NSH built-in function. Default: Built as a standalone program. Specific configuration options for this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR` – Enables the I2C test. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_DEVPATH` – The default path to the ADC device. Default: `/dev/i2schar0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_TX` – This should be set if the I2S device supports a transmitter. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_TXBUFFERS` – This is the default number of audio buffers to send before the TX transfers terminate. When both TX and RX transfers terminate, the task exits (and, if an NSH builtin, the `i2schar` command returns). This number can be changed from the NSH command line. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_TXSTACKSIZE` – This is the stack size to use when starting the transmitter thread. Default `1536`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_RX` – This should be set if the I2S device supports a transmitter. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_RXBUFFERS` – This is the default number of audio buffers to receive before the RX transfers terminate. When both TX and RX transfers terminate, the task exits (and, if an NSH builtin, the `i2schar` command returns). This number can be changed from the NSH command line. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_RXSTACKSIZE` – This is the stack size to use when starting the receiver thread. Default `1536`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_BUFSIZE` – The size of the data payload in one audio buffer. Applies to both TX and RX audio buffers. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_I2SCHAR_DEVINIT` – Define if architecture-specific I2S device initialize is available. If defined, the platform specific code must provide a function `i2schar_devinit()` that will be called each time that this test executes. Not available in the kernel build mode. ## `ina219` Current/Power Monitor `INA219` This is a simple infinite loop that polls the `INA219` sensor and displays the measurements. ## `ipforward` IP Forwarding Using TUN A simple test of IP forwarding using TUN devices. This can be used on any platform, but was intended for use on the simulation platform because it performs a test of IP forwarding without the use of hardware. ## `json` cJSON This example exercises the cJSON implementation at `apps/netutils/json`. This example contains logic taken from the cJSON project: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cjson/ The example corresponds to SVN revision `r42` (with lots of changes for NuttX coding standards). As of `r42`, the SVN repository was last updated on `2011-10-10` so I presume that the code is stable and there is no risk of maintaining duplicate logic in the NuttX repository. ## `leds` Toggle LEDs This is a simple test of the board LED driver at `nuttx/drivers/leds/userled_*.c`. ## `lis2csh_reader` `LIS3DSH` Accelerometer A simple reader example for the `LIS3DSH` acceleration sensor as found on STM32F4Discovery rev. C. ## `hts221_reader` `HTS221` Humidity Sensor A simple reader example for the `HTS221` humidity sensor. ## `lsm303_reader` `LSM303` Accelerometer/Magnetometer A simple reader example for the `LSM303` acc-mag sensor. ## `lsm6dsl_reader` `LSM6DSL` Accelerometer/Gyroscope A simple reader example for the `LSM6DSL` acc-gyro sensor. ## `media` The media test simply writes values onto the media hidden behind a character driver and verifies that the media can be successfully written and read. This low level test is useful in the early phases of the bringup of a new block or mtd driver because it avoids the complexity of a file system. This test uses a character driver and cannot directly access block or mtd drivers. This test is suitable for use EEPROM character drivers (see `nuttx/drivers/eeprom`), or with block drivers wrapped as character drivers (see `nuttx/drivers/bch`) ```c int ret = bchdev_register(, , false); ``` MTD drivers need an additional wrapper layer, the FTL wrapper must first be used to convert the MTD driver to a block device: ```c int ret = ftl_initialize(, mtd); ret = bchdev_register(/dev/mtdblock, , false); ``` ## `module` Loadable Module This example builds a small loadable module test case. This includes a character driver under `examples/module/drivers`. This driver is built using the relocatable ELF format and installed in a ROMFS file system. At run time, the driver module is loaded and exercised. Requires `CONFIG_MODULE`. Other configuration options: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ELF_DEVMINOR` – The minor device number of the ROMFS block driver. For example, the `N` in `/dev/ramN`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ELF_DEVPATH` – The path to the ROMFS block driver device. This must match `EXAMPLES_ELF_DEVMINOR`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `/dev/ram0`. **Notes**: 1. `CFLAGS` should be provided in `CMODULEFLAGS`. RAM and FLASH memory regions may require long allcs. For ARM, this might be: ```makefile CMODULEFLAGS = $(CFLAGS) -mlong-calls ``` Similarly for C++ flags which must be provided in `CXXMODULEFLAGS`. 2. Your top-level `nuttx/Make.defs` file must also include an appropriate definition, LDMODULEFLAGS, to generate a relocatable ELF object. With GNU LD, this should include `-r` and `-e `. ```makefile LDMODULEFLAGS = -r -e module_initialize ``` If you use GCC to link, you make also need to include `-nostdlib` or `-nostartfiles` and `-nodefaultlibs`. 3. This example also requires `genromfs`. `genromfs` can be build as part of the nuttx toolchain. Or can built from the `genromfs` sources that can be found in the NuttX tools repository (`genromfs-0.5.2.tar.gz`). In any event, the PATH variable must include the path to the `genromfs` executable. 4. ELF size: The ELF files in this example are, be default, quite large because they include a lot of _build garbage_. You can greatly reduce the size of the ELF binaries are using the `objcopy --strip-unneeded` command to remove un-necessary information from the ELF files. 5. Simulator. You cannot use this example with the NuttX simulator on Cygwin. That is because the Cygwin GCC does not generate ELF file but rather some Windows-native binary format. If you really want to do this, you can create a NuttX x86 `buildroot` toolchain and use that be build the ELF executables for the ROMFS file system. 6. Linker scripts. You might also want to use a linker scripts to combine sections better. An example linker script is at `nuttx/libc/modlib/gnu-elf.ld`. That example might have to be tuned for your particular linker output to position additional sections correctly. The GNU LD `LDMODULEFLAGS` then might be: ```makefile LDMODULEFLAGS = -r -e module_initialize -T$(TOPDIR)/libc/modlib/gnu-elf.ld ``` ## `modbus` FreeModbus This is a port of the FreeModbus Linux demo. It derives from the demos/LINUX directory of the FreeModBus version `1.5.0` (June 6, 2010) that can be downloaded in its entirety from http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6120. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MODBUS_PORT`, Default `0` (for `/dev/ttyS0`). - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MODBUS_BAUD`, Default B`38400`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MODBUS_PARITY`, Default `MB_PAR_EVEN`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MODBUS_REG_INPUT_START`, Default `1000`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MODBUS_REG_INPUT_NREGS`, Default `4`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MODBUS_REG_HOLDING_START`, Default `2000`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MODBUS_REG_HOLDING_NREGS`, Default `130`. The FreeModBus library resides at `apps/modbus`.

Default: `32`. ## `nximage` Display NuttX Logo This is a simple example that just puts the NuttX logo image in the center of the display. This only works for `RGB23` (`888`), `RGB16` (`656`), `RGB8` (`332`), and 8-bit greyscale for now. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the `NXIMAGE` example as a _built-in_ that can be executed from the NSH command line. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_VPLANE` – The plane to select from the frame- buffer driver for use in the test.

Valid options include `8`, `16` and `24`. Default is `16`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_XSCALEp5`, `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_XSCALE1p5` or `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_XSCALE2p0` – The logo image width is 160 columns. One of these may be defined to rescale the image horizontally by .5, 1.5 or 2.0. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_YSCALEp5`, `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_YSCALE1p5` or `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_YSCALE2p0` – The logo image height is 160 rows. One of these may be defined to rescale the image vertically by .5, 1.5 or 2.0. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXIMAGE_GREYSCALE` – Grey scale image. Default: `RGB`. How was that run-length encoded image produced? 1. I used GIMP output the image as a `.c` file. 2. I added some C logic to palette-ize the RGB image in the GIMP `.c` file. 3. Then I add some simple run-length encoding to palette-ized image. But now there is a tool that can be found in the NxWidgets package at `NxWidgets/tools/bitmap_converter.py` that can be used to convert any graphics format to the NuttX RLE format. **Note**: As of this writing, most of the pixel depth, scaling options, and combinations thereof have not been tested. ## `nxlines` NX Line Drawing A very simple graphics example that just exercised the NX line drawing logic. The following configuration options can be selected: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXLINES_VPLANE` – The plane to select from the frame- buffer driver for use in the test.

Default is `16`. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the NX lines examples as an NSH built-in function. ## `nxtext` Display NX Text This directory contains another simple test of a subset of the NX APIs defined in `include/nuttx/nx/nx.h`. This text focuses on text displays on the display background combined with pop-up displays over the text. The text display will continue to update while the pop-up is visible. **Note**: This example will **only** work with FB drivers and with LCD drivers that support reading the contents of the internal LCD memory **unless** you define `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_NOGETRUN`. If you notice garbage on the display or a failure at the point where the display should scroll, it is probably because you have an LCD driver that is write-only. The following configuration options can be selected: - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the `NXTEXT` example as a _built-in_ that can be executed from the NSH command line. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BGCOLOR` – The color of the background.

Default depends on `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BPP`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BPP` – Pixels per pixel to use. Valid options include `2`, `4`, `8`, `16`, `24` and `32`. Default is `32`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_NOGETRUN` – If your display is read-only OR if reading is not reliable, then select this configuration to avoid reading from the display. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NXTEXT_BMCACHE` – The maximum number of characters that can be put in the background window.

The example also expects the following settings and will generate an error if they are not as expected: ```conf CONFIG_DISABLE_MQUEUE=n CONFIG_DISABLE_PTHREAD=n CONFIG_NX_BLOCKING=y ``` ## `null` This is the do nothing application. It is only used for bringing up new NuttX architectures in the most minimal of environments. ## `obd2` A simple test of `apps/canutils/libobd2`. ## `oneshot` Oneshot Timer Simple test of a oneshot driver. ## `pca9635` `PCA9635PW` LED A simple test of the `PCA9635PW` LED driver. ## `pdcurses` This directory contains the `demo/test` programs that accompany the public domain cursors package (`pdcurses`) that can be found at `apps/graphics/pdcurs34`. ## `pipe` A test of the `mkfifo()` and `pipe()` APIs. Requires `CONFIG_PIPES` - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PIPE_STACKSIZE` – Sets the size of the stack to use when creating the child tasks. The default size is `1024`. ## `poll` A test of the `poll()` and `select()` APIs using FIFOs and, if available, `stdin`, and a TCP/IP socket. In order to use the TCP/IP select test, you must have the following things selected in your NuttX configuration file: - `CONFIG_NET` – Defined for general network support. - `CONFIG_NET_TCP` – Defined for TCP/IP support. - `CONFIG_NET_NTCP_READAHEAD_BUFFERS` – Defined to be greater than zero. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_POLL_NOMAC` – (May be defined to use software assigned MAC) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_POLL_IPADDR` – Target IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_POLL_DRIPADDR` – Default router IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_POLL_NETMASK` – Network mask. In order to for select to work with incoming connections, you must also select: - `CONFIG_NET_TCPBACKLOG` – Incoming connections pend in a backlog until `accept()` is called. In additional to the target device-side example, there is also a host-side application in this directory. It can be compiled under Linux or Cygwin as follows: ```makefile cd examples/usbserial make -f Makefile.host TOPDIR= TARGETIP= ``` Where `` is the IP address of your target board. This will generate a small program called 'host'. Usage: 1. Build the `examples/poll` target program with TCP/IP poll support and start the target. 2. Then start the host application: ```bash ./host ``` The host and target will exchange are variety of small messages. Each message sent from the host should cause the select to return in target. The target example should read the small message and send it back to the host. The host should then receive the echo'ed message. If networking is enabled, applications using this example will need to provide the following definition in the `defconfig` file to enable the networking library: - `CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y` ## `posix_spawn` This is a simple test of the `posix_spawn()` API. The example derives from `examples/elf`. As a result, these tests are built using the relocatable ELF format installed in a ROMFS file system. At run time, the test program in the ROMFS file system is spawned using `posix_spawn()`. Requires: - `CONFIG_BINFMT_DISABLE=n` – Don't disable the binary loader. - `CONFIG_ELF=y` – Enable ELF binary loader. - `CONFIG_LIBC_EXECFUNCS=y` – Enable support for posix_spawn. - `CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_SYMTAB_ARRAY="g_spawn_exports"` – The name of the symbol table created by the test. - `CONFIG_EXECFUNCS_NSYMBOLS_VAR="g_spawn_nexports"` – Name of variable holding the number of symbols. - `CONFIG_POSIX_SPAWN_STACKSIZE=768` – This default setting. Test-specific configuration options: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_POSIXSPAWN_DEVMINOR` – The minor device number of the ROMFS block. driver. For example, the `N` in `/dev/ramN`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_POSIXSPAWN_DEVPATH` – The path to the ROMFS block driver device. This must match `EXAMPLES_POSIXSPAWN_DEVMINOR`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `/dev/ram0`. **Notes**: 1. `CFLAGS` should be provided in `CELFFLAGS`. RAM and FLASH memory regions may require long allcs. For ARM, this might be: ```makefile CELFFLAGS = $(CFLAGS) -mlong-calls ``` Similarly for C++ flags which must be provided in `CXXELFFLAGS`. 2. Your top-level `nuttx/Make.defs` file must also include an appropriate definition, `LDELFFLAGS`, to generate a relocatable ELF object. With GNU LD, this should include `-r` and `-e main` (or `_main` on some platforms). ```makefile LDELFFLAGS = -r -e main ``` If you use GCC to link, you make also need to include `-nostdlib` or `-nostartfiles` and `-nodefaultlibs`. 3. This example also requires `genromfs`. `genromfs` can be build as part of the nuttx toolchain. Or can built from the `genromfs` sources that can be found in the NuttX tools repository (`genromfs-0.5.2.tar.gz`). In any event, the `PATH` variable must include the path to the `genromfs` executable. 4. ELF size: The ELF files in this example are, be default, quite large because they include a lot of _build garbage_. You can greatly reduce the size of the ELF binaries are using the `objcopy --strip-unneeded` command to remove un-necessary information from the ELF files. 5. Simulator. You cannot use this example with the NuttX simulator on Cygwin. That is because the Cygwin GCC does not generate ELF file but rather some Windows-native binary format. If you really want to do this, you can create a NuttX x86 buildroot toolchain and use that be build the ELF executables for the ROMFS file system. 6. Linker scripts. You might also want to use a linker scripts to combine sections better. An example linker script is at `nuttx/binfmt/libelf/gnu-elf.ld`. That example might have to be tuned for your particular linker output to position additional sections correctly. The GNU LD `LDELFFLAGS` then might be: ```makefile LDELFFLAGS = -r -e main -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libelf/gnu-elf.ld ``` ## `powerled` This is a powerled driver example application. This application support three operation modes which can be selected from NSH command line: 1. Demo mode. 2. Continuous mode. 3. Flash mode. ## `pty_test` Pseudo-Terminals A test of NuttX pseudo-terminals. Provided by Alan Carvalho de Assis. ## `pwfb` A graphics example using pre-window frame buffers. The example shows three windows containing text moving around, crossing each other from _above_ and from _below_. The example application is NOT updating the windows any anyway! The application is only changing the window position. The windows are being updated from the per-winidow framebuffers automatically. This example is reminiscent of Pong: Each window travels in straight line until it hits an edge, then it bounces off. The window is also raised when it hits the edge (gets _focus_). This tests all combinations of overap. **Note**: A significant amount of RAM, usually external SDRAM, is required to run this demo. At 16bpp and a 480x272 display, each window requires about 70Kb of RAM for its framebuffer. ## `pwm` General PWM A test of a PWM device driver. It simply enables a pulsed output for a specified frequency and duty for a specified period of time. This example can ONLY be built as an NSH built-in function. This test depends on these specific PWM/NSH configurations settings (your specific PWM settings might require additional settings). - `CONFIG_PWM` – Enables PWM support. - `CONFIG_PWM_PULSECOUNT` – Enables PWM pulse count support (if the hardware supports it). - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the PWM test as an NSH built-in function.

Default: `/dev/pwm0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PWM_FREQUENCY` – The initial PWM frequency. Default: `100` Hz - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PWM_DUTYPCT` – The initial PWM duty as a percentage. Default: `50`%. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PWM_DURATION` – The initial PWM pulse train duration in seconds. Used only if the current pulse count is zero (pulse count is only supported if `CONFIG_PWM_PULSECOUNT` is defined). Default: `5` seconds. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_PWM_PULSECOUNT` – The initial PWM pulse count. This option is only available if `CONFIG_PWM_PULSECOUNT` is non-zero. Default: `0` (i.e., use the duration, not the count). ## `qencoder` Quadrature Encoder This example is a simple test of a Quadrature Encoder driver. It simply reads positional data from the encoder and prints it., This test depends on these specific QE/NSH configurations settings (your specific PWM settings might require additional settings). - `CONFIG_SENSORS_QENCODER` – Enables quadrature encoder support (upper-half driver). - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the QE test as an NSH built-in function. Default: Built as a standalone program. Additional configuration options will mostly likely be required for the board- specific lower-half driver. See the `README.txt` file in your board configuration directory. Specific configuration options for this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_QENCODER_DEVPATH` – The path to the QE device. Default: `/dev/qe0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_QENCODER_NSAMPLES` – This number of samples is collected and the program terminates. Default: Samples are collected indefinitely. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_QENCODER_DELAY` – This value provides the delay (in milliseconds) between each sample. Default: `100` milliseconds. ## `random` Random Numbers This is a very simply test of `/dev/random`. It simple collects random numbers and displays them on the console. Prerequistes: - `CONFIG_DEV_RANDOM` – Support for `/dev/random` must be enabled in order to select this example. Configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_RANDOM` – Enables the `/dev/random` test. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_MAXSAMPLES` – This is the size of the `/dev/random` I/O buffer in units of 32-bit samples. Careful! This buffer is allocated on the stack as needed! Default `64`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_NSAMPLES` – When you execute the `rand` command, a number of samples ranging from `1` to `EXAMPLES_MAXSAMPLES` may be specified. If no argument is specified, this is the default number of samples that will be collected and displayed. Default `8`. ## `relays` Relays Requires `CONFIG_ARCH_RELAYS`. Contributed by Darcy Gong. **Note**: This test exercises internal relay driver interfaces. As such, it relies on internal OS interfaces that are not normally available to a user-space program. As a result, this example cannot be used if a NuttX is built as a protected, supervisor kernel (`CONFIG_BUILD_PROTECTED` or `CONFIG_BUILD_KERNEL`). ## `rfid_readuid` RFID RFID `READUID` example. ## `rgbled` RGB LED Using PWM This example demonstrates the use of the RGB led driver to drive an RGB LED with PWM outputs so that all color characteristcs of RGB LED can be controlled. ## `romfs` File System This example exercises the romfs filesystem. Configuration options include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ROMFS_RAMDEVNO` – The minor device number to use for the ROM disk. The default is `1` (meaning `/dev/ram1`). - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ROMFS_SECTORSIZE` – The ROM disk sector size to use. Default is `64`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_ROMFS_MOUNTPOINT` – The location to mount the ROM disk. Default: `/usr/local/share`. ## `sendmail` SMTP Client This examples exercises the uIP SMTP logic by sending a test message to a selected recipient. This test can also be built to execute on the Cygwin/Linux host environment: ```bash cd examples/sendmail make -f Makefile.host TOPDIR= ``` Settings unique to this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAIL_NOMAC` – May be defined to use software assigned MAC (optional) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAIL_IPADDR` – Target IP address (required) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAIL_DRIPADDR` – Default router IP address (required) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAILT_NETMASK` – Network mask (required) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAIL_RECIPIENT` – The recipient of the email (required) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAIL_SENDER` – Optional. Default: `nuttx-testing@example.com` - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAIL_SUBJECT` – Optional. Default: `Testing SMTP from NuttX` - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SENDMAIL_BODY` – Optional. Default: `Test message sent by NuttX` **Note 1**: This test has not been verified on the NuttX target environment. As of this writing, unit-tested in the Cygwin/Linux host environment. **Note 2**: This sendmail example only works for the simplest of environments. Virus protection software on your host may have to be disabled to allow you to send messages. Only very open, unprotected recipients can be used. Most will protect themselves from this test email because it looks like SPAM. Applications using this example will need to enable the following netutils libraries in their defconfig file: ```conf CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y CONFIG_NETUTILS_SMTP=y ``` ## `serialblaster` Sends a repeating pattern (the alphabet) out a serial port continuously. This may be useful if you are trying run down other problems that you think might only occur when the serial port usage is high. ## `serialrx` Constant receives serial data. This is the complement to `serialblaster`. This may be useful if you are trying run down other problems that you think might only occur when the serial port usage is high. ## `serloop` Serial Loopback This is a mindlessly simple loopback test on the console. Useful for testing new serial drivers. Configuration options include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SERLOOP_BUFIO` – Use C buffered I/O (`getchar`/`putchar`) vs. raw console I/O (read/read). ## `slcd` Alphanumeric Segment LCD A simple test of alphanumeric, segment LCDs (SLCDs). - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SLCD` – Enable the SLCD test ## `smps` Switched-Mode Power Supply This is a SMPS (Switched-mode power supply) driver example application. ## `sotest` Shared Library Module Test This example builds a small shared library module test case. The test shared library is built using the relocatable ELF format and installed in a ROMFS file system. At run time, the shared library is installed and exercised. Requires `CONFIG_LIBC_DLFCN`. Other configuration options: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SOTEST_DEVMINOR` – The minor device number of the ROMFS block driver. For example, the `N` in `/dev/ramN`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SOTEST_DEVPATH` – The path to the ROMFS block driver device. This must match `EXAMPLES_ELF_DEVMINOR`. Used for registering the RAM block driver that will hold the ROMFS file system containing the ELF executables to be tested. Default: `/dev/ram0`. **Notes**: 1. `CFLAGS` should be provided in `CMODULEFLAGS`. RAM and FLASH memory regions may require long allcs. For ARM, this might be: ```makefile CMODULEFLAGS = $(CFLAGS) -mlong-calls ``` Similarly for C++ flags which must be provided in `CXXMODULEFLAGS`. 2. Your top-level `nuttx/Make.defs` file must also include an appropriate definition, `LDMODULEFLAGS`, to generate a relocatable ELF object. With GNU LD, this should include `-r` and `-e `. ```makefile LDMODULEFLAGS = -r -e module_initialize ``` If you use GCC to link, you make also need to include `-nostdlib` or `-nostartfiles` and `-nodefaultlibs`. 3. This example also requires `genromfs`. `genromfs` can be build as part of the nuttx toolchain. Or can built from the `genromfs` sources that can be found in the NuttX tools repository (`genromfs-0.5.2.tar.gz`). In any event, the `PATH` variable must include the path to the `genromfs` executable. 4. ELF size: The ELF files in this example are, be default, quite large because they include a lot of _build garbage_. You can greatly reduce the size of the ELF binaries are using the `objcopy --strip-unneeded` command to remove un-necessary information from the ELF files. 5. Simulator. You cannot use this example with the NuttX simulator on Cygwin. That is because the Cygwin GCC does not generate ELF file but rather some Windows-native binary format. If you really want to do this, you can create a NuttX x86 buildroot toolchain and use that be build the ELF executables for the ROMFS file system. 6. Linker scripts. You might also want to use a linker scripts to combine sections better. An example linker script is at `nuttx/libc/modlib/gnu-elf.ld`. That example might have to be tuned for your particular linker output to position additional sections correctly. The GNU LD `LDMODULEFLAGS` then might be: ```makefile LDMODULEFLAGS = -r -e module_initialize -T$(TOPDIR)/libc/modlib/gnu-elf.ld ``` ## `stat` A simple test of `stat()`, `fstat()`, and `statfs()`. This is useful primarily for bringing up a new file system and verifying the correctness of these operations. ## `sx127x_demo` `SX127X` Radio This example demonstrates the use of the `SX127X` radio. ## `system` This is a simple test of the `system()` command. The test simply executes this `system` command: ```c ret = system("ls -Rl /"); ``` ## `tcpblaster` TCP Performance Test The `tcpblaster` example derives from the `nettest` example and basically duplicates that example when the `nettest` PERFORMANCE option is selected. `tcpblaster` has a little better reporting of performance stats, however. ## `tcpecho` TCP Echo Server Simple single threaded, poll based TCP echo server. This example implements the TCP Echo Server from W. Richard Stevens _UNIX Network Programming_ Book. Contributed by Max Holtberg.

Also, make sure that you have the following set in the NuttX configuration file or else the performance will be very bad (because there will be only one character per TCP transfer): - `CONFIG_STDIO_BUFFER_SIZE` – Some value `>= 64` - `CONFIG_STDIO_LINEBUFFER=y` ## `termios` Simple Termios interface test This directory contains a simple application that uses the termios interface to change serial parameters. Just import a `nsh` config and enable the following symbols: - `CONFIG_SERIAL_TERMIOS` – Enable the termios support. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TERMIOS` – Enable the example itself. ## `thttpd` THTTPD server An example that builds `netutils/thttpd` with some simple NXFLAT CGI programs. See `boards/README.txt` for most THTTPD settings. In addition to those, this example accepts: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_THTTPD_NOMAC` – (May be defined to use software assigned MAC) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_THTTPD_DRIPADDR` – Default router IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_THTTPD_NETMASK` – Network mask. Applications using this example will need to enable the following `netutils` libraries in the `defconfig` file: ```conf CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y CONFIG_NETUTILS_THTTPD=y ``` ## `tiff` This is a simple unit test for the TIFF creation library at `apps/graphic/tiff`. It is configured to work in the Linux user-mode simulation and has not been tested in any other environment. At a minimum, to run in an embedded environment, you will probably have to change the configured paths to the TIFF files defined in the example. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TIFF_OUTFILE` – Name of the resulting TIFF file. Default is `/tmp/result.tif`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TIFF_TMPFILE1/2` – Names of two temporaries files that will be used in the file creation. Defaults are `/tmp/tmpfile1.dat` and `/tmp/tmpfile2.dat`. The following must also be defined in your `apps/` configuration file: ```conf CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TIFF=y CONFIG_GRAPHICS_TIFF=y ``` ## `timer` This is a simple test of the timer driver (see `include/nuttx/timers/timer.h`). Dependencies: - `CONFIG_TIMER` – The timer driver must be selected Example configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TIMER_DEVNAME` – This is the name of the timer device that will be tested. Default: `/dev/timer0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TIMER_INTERVAL` – This is the timer interval in microseconds.

Default: `timer`. ## `timer_gpout` This example uses the timer interrupt to periodically change the state of a digital output. The digital output may be a relay, a led or anything else. This example can be very useful to validate timer drivers by using a logic analyzer connected to the digital output. This example, mainly differs from the timer example because it waits on a sigwaitinfo() instead of using a signal handler. This approach ensures a deterministic wake-up time when the signal occurs. Dependencies: - `CONFIG_TIMER` – The timer driver must be selected. - `CONFIG_DEV_GPIO` – The GPIO driver must be selected. Note: You should also select one timer instance and have gpout proper configured in your board logic. Example configuration: - `EXAMPLES_TIMER_GPOUT_TIM_DEVNAME` – This is the name of the timer device that will be used. Default: `/dev/timer0`. - `EXAMPLES_TIMER_GPOUT_GPOUT_DEVNAME` – This is the name of the gpout device that will be used. Default: `/dev/gpout0`. - `EXAMPLES_TIMER_GPOUT_INTERVAL` – This is the timer interval in microseconds. Default: `1000000`. - `EXAMPLES_TIMER_GPOUT_SIGNO` – This is the signal number that is used to notify that a timer interrupt occurred. Default: `17`. - `EXAMPLES_TIMER_GPOUT_STACKSIZE` – This is the stack size allocated when the timer task runs. Default: `2048`. - `EXAMPLES_TIMER_GPOUT_PRIORITY` – This is the priority of the timer task. Default: `255`. - `EXAMPLES_TIMER_GPOUT_PROGNAME` – This is the name of the program that will be used from the nsh. Default: `timer_gpout`. ## `touchscreen` Touchscreen Events This configuration implements a simple touchscreen test at `apps/examples/touchscreen`. This test will create an empty X11 window and will print the touchscreen output as it is received from the simulated touchscreen driver. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the touchscreen test as an NSH built-in function. Default: Built as a standalone program. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSCREEN_MINOR` – The minor device number. Minor `N` corresponds to touchscreen device `/dev/inputN`. Note this value must with `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSCREEN_DEVPATH`. Default `0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSCREEN_DEVPATH` – The path to the touchscreen device. This must be consistent with `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSCREEN_MINOR`. Default: `/dev/input0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSCREEN_NSAMPLES` – This number of samples is collected and the program terminates. Default: Samples are collected indefinitely. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSCREEN_MOUSE` – The touchscreen test can also be configured to work with a mouse driver by setting this option. The following additional configurations must be set in the NuttX configuration file: - `CONFIG_INPUT=y` (plus any touchscreen-specific settings) The following must also be defined in your apps configuration file: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSREEN=y` This example code will call `boardctl()` to setup the touchscreen driver for texting. The implementation of `boardctl()` will require that board- specific logic provide the following interfaces that will be called by the `boardctl()` in order to initialize the touchscreen hardware: ```c int board_tsc_setup(int minor); ``` ## `udp` Client/Server Over UDP This is a simple network test for verifying client- and server- functionality over UDP. Applications using this example will need to enabled the following `netutils` libraries in the `defconfig` file: - `CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y` Possible configurations: - Server on target hardware; client on host. - Client on target hardware; Server on host. - Server and Client on different targets. ## `udpblaster` This is a simple network test for stressing UDP transfers. It simply sends UDP packets from both the host and the target and the highest possible rate. ## `unionfs` Union File System This is at trivial test of the Union File System. See `nuttx/fs/unionfs/README.txt`. Dependencies: - `CONFIG_DISABLE_MOUNTPOINT` – Mountpoint support must not be disabled. - `CONFIG_FS_ROMFS` – ROMFS support is required. - `CONFIG_FS_UNIONFS` – Union File System support is required. Configuration options.

See the `README.txt` file at `nuttx/boards/sim/sim/sim/README.txt` for a walk-through of the output of this text. ## `usbserial` USB Serial Hello World ### Target configuration This is another implementation of _Hello, World_ but this one uses a USB serial driver. Configuration options can be used to simply the test. These options include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_INONLY` – Only verify IN (device-to-host) data transfers. Default: both. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_OUTONLY` – Only verify OUT (host-to-device) data transfers. Default: both. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_ONLYSMALL` – Send only small, single packet messages. Default: Send large and small. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_ONLYBIG` – Send only large, multi-packet messages. Default: Send large and small. If `CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE` is enabled (or `CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES` and `CONFIG_DEBUG_USB`), then the example code will also manage the USB trace output. The amount of trace output can be controlled using: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACEINIT` – Show initialization events. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACECLASS` – Show class driver events. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACETRANSFERS` – Show data transfer events. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACECONTROLLER` – Show controller events. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSERIAL_TRACEINTERRUPTS` – Show interrupt-related events. Error results are always shown in the trace output. ### Host-side test program In additional to the target device-side example, there is also a host-side application in this directory. This host side application must be executed on a Linux host in order to perform the `USBSERIAL` test. The host application can be compiled under Linux (or Cygwin?) as follows: ```bash cd examples/usbserial make -f Makefile.host TOPDIR= ``` ### Running the test This will generate a small program called `host`. Usage: 1. Build the `examples/usbserial` target program and start the target. 2. Wait a bit, then do enter: ```shell dmesg ``` At the end of the dmesg output, you should see the serial device was successfully idenfied and assigned to a tty device, probably `/dev/ttyUSB0` or `/dev/ttyACM0` (depending on the configured USB serial driver). 3. Then start the host application: ```bash ./host [] ``` Where: - `` is the USB TTY device to use. The default is `/dev/ttyUSB0` (for the PL2303 emulation) or `/dev/ttyACM0` (for the CDC/ACM serial device). The host and target will exchange are variety of very small and very large serial messages. ## `userfs` UserFS File System A simple test of the UserFS file system. ## `ustream` Unix Datagram Sockets This is the same test as `examples/udp` and similar to `examples/ustream`, but using Unix domain datagram sockets. Dependencies: - `CONFIG_NET_LOCAL` – Depends on support for Unix domain sockets. Configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_UDGRAM` – Enables the Unix domain socket example. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_UDGRAM_ADDR` – Specifics the Unix domain address. Default: `/dev/fifo`. ## `ustream` Unix Stream Sockets This is the same test as `examples/udp` and similar to `examples/udgram`, but using Unix domain stream sockets. Dependencies: - `CONFIG_NET_LOCAL` – Depends on support for Unix domain sockets. Configuration: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USTREAM` – Enables the Unix domain socket example. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USTREAM_ADDR` – Specifics the Unix domain address. Default: `/dev/fifo`. ## `watchdog` Watchdog Timer A simple test of a watchdog timer driver. Initializes starts the watchdog timer. It pings the watchdog timer for a period of time then lets the watchdog timer expire... resetting the CPU is successful. This example can ONLY be built as an NSH built-in function. This test depends on these specific Watchdog/NSH configurations settings (your specific watchdog hardware settings might require additional settings). - `CONFIG_WATCHDOG` – Enables watchdog timer support support. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build the watchdog time test as an NSH built-in function. Specific configuration options for this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG_DEVPATH` – The path to the Watchdog device. Default: `/dev/watchdog0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG_PINGTIME` – Time in milliseconds that the example will ping the watchdog before letting the watchdog expire. Default: `5000` milliseconds. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG_PINGDELAY` – Time delay between pings in milliseconds. Default: `500` milliseconds. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT` – The watchdog timeout value in milliseconds before the watchdog timer expires. Default: `2000` milliseconds. ## `watcher` Watcher & Watched The watcher and watched examples are designed to work together. The watched example will only appear after watcher is selected. The watcher is a task that will monitor other tasks that subscribe to be watched. If a watched task doesn't signal the watcher during the watchdog time period, the watchdog timer will expire and the watcher will print the tasks that did not signal and the ones that signaled. The tasks that did not signal will be printed as the tasks that starved the dog and the tasks that signaled will be printed as the tasks that fed the dog. The watcher task will only feed the watchdog timer when all subscribed tasks have asked to feed dog. To start the watcher, just run: `watcher` The watched example is not required to use the watcher. The watched example is simply a task that creates 4 tasks that will subscribe to be watched. The first and fourth will not feed the dog to expose the functionality. This example will show the user how to subscribe, to feed the dog and to unsubscribe. To start the watched, just run: `watched` P.S: This example will only be supported by the chips that support interrupt on timeout, i.e., which have the \"capture\" command implemented. This test depends on these specific configurations settings (your specific watchdog hardware settings might require additional settings). - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHER` – Includes this example. - `CONFIG_WATCHDOG` – Enables watchdog timer support. - `CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS` – Build this example an NSH built-in function. - `CONFIG_DRIVER_NOTE` and `CONFIG_SCHED_INSTRUMENTATION` – Allows the watcher to get the tasks' names. - `CONFIG_FS_FAT` – Allows the creation of a FAT filesystem on the ramdisk to create a file with all the necessary info for the watched tasks. Specific configuration options for the `watcher` example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHER_PRIORITY` – Watcher Task Priority. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHER_STACKSIZE` – Watcher Task Stack Size. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHER_DEVPATH` – The path to the Watchdog device used by the Watcher. Default: `/dev/watchdog0`. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHER_TIMEOUT` – The watchdog timeout value in milliseconds. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHER_SIGNAL` – This is the Signal Number used for communication between the watcher task and the watched tasks. Specific configuration options for the `watched` example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHED_PRIORITY` – Watched Task Priority. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHED_STACKSIZE` – Watched Task Stack Size. ## `webserver` Simple Webserver This is a port of uIP tiny webserver example application. Settings specific to this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WEBSERVER_NOMAC` (may be defined to use software assigned MAC) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WEBSERVER_IPADDR` – Target IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WEBSERVER_DRIPADDR` – Default router IP address. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WEBSERVER_NETMASK` – Network mask. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WEBSERVER_DHCPC` – Select to get IP address via DHCP. If you use DHCPC, then some special configuration network options are required. These include: - `CONFIG_NET=y` – of course. - `CONFIG_NET_UDP=y` – UDP support is required for DHCP (as well as various other UDP-related configuration settings). - `CONFIG_NET_BROADCAST=y` – UDP broadcast support is needed. - `CONFIG_NET_ETH_PKTSIZE=650` or larger. Per RFC2131 (p. 9), the DHCP client must be prepared to receive DHCP messages of up to `576` bytes (excluding Ethernet, IP, or UDP headers and FCS). **Note** that the actual MTU setting will depend upon the specific link protocol. Here Ethernet is indicated. Other configuration items apply also to the selected `webserver` net utility. Additional relevant settings for the uIP `webserver` net utility are: - `CONFIG_NETUTILS_HTTPDSTACKSIZE` - `CONFIG_NETUTILS_HTTPDFILESTATS` - `CONFIG_NETUTILS_HTTPDNETSTATS` Applications using this example will need to enable the following `netutils` libraries in their `defconfig` file: ```conf CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y CONFIG_NETUTILS_DHCPC=y CONFIG_NETDB_DNSCLIENT=y CONFIG_NETUTILS_WEBSERVER=y ``` **Note**: This example does depend on the `perl` script at `nuttx/tools/mkfsdata.pl`. You must have `perl` installed on your development system at `/usr/bin/perl`. ## `wget` Web Client A simple web client example. It will obtain a file from a server using the HTTP protocol. Settings unique to this example include: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WGET_URL` – The URL of the file to get - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WGET_NOMAC` – (May be defined to use software assigned MAC) - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WGET_IPADDR` – Target IP address - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WGET_DRIPADDR` – Default router IP address - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WGET_NETMASK` – Network mask This example uses `netutils/webclient`. Additional configuration settings apply to that code as follows (but built-in defaults are probably OK): - `CONFIG_WEBCLIENT_GETMIMETYPE` - `CONFIG_WEBCLIENT_MAXHTTPLINE` - `CONFIG_WEBCLIENT_MAXMIMESIZE` - `CONFIG_WEBCLIENT_MAXHOSTNAME` - `CONFIG_WEBCLIENT_MAXFILENAME` Of course, the example also requires other settings including `CONFIG_NET` and `CONFIG_NET_TCP`. The example also uses the uIP resolver which requires `CONFIG_UDP`. **Warning**: As of this writing, `wget` is untested on the target platform. At present it has been tested only in the host-based configuration described in the following note. The primary difference is that the target version will rely on the also untested uIP name resolver. **Note**: For test purposes, this example can be built as a host-based `wget` function. This can be built as follows: ```bash cd examples/wget make -f Makefile.host ``` Applications using this example will need to enable the following `netutils` libraries in the `defconfig` file: ```conf CONFIG_NETUTILS_NETLIB=y CONFIG_NETDB_DNSCLIENT=y CONFIG_NETUTILS_WEBCLIENT=y ``` ## `wgetjson` GET JSON Using `wget` Uses `wget` to get a JSON encoded file, then decodes the file. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WDGETJSON_MAXSIZE` – Max. JSON Buffer Size. - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_EXAMPLES_WGETJSON_URL` – `wget` URL ## `xmlrpc` XML-RPC Server This example exercises the _Embeddable Lightweight XML-RPC Server_ which is discussed at: http://www.drdobbs.com/web-development/an-embeddable-lightweight-xml-rpc-server/184405364 Configuration options: - `CONFIG_EXAMPLES_XMLRPC_BUFFERSIZE` – HTTP buffer size.
