chipKIT Wi-FIRE board
(https://chipkit.net/wiki/index.php?title=ChipKIT_Wi-Fire) features
the Microchip PIC32MZ2048EFG100 MCU, Microchip MRF24WG0MA Wi-Fi module,
USB 2.0 Full-Speed / Hi-Speed OTG controller, Micro SD card connector etc.
The PIC32MZ2048EFG100 is a 200 MHz 32-bit MIPS M5150 operation with 2MB Flash
memory and 512KB RAM.

Toolchain
=========
The following Toolchain options have been tested and confirmed to work:
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_PINGUINOL - Pinquino Toolchain
for Linux
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_SOURCERY_CODEBENCH_LITE - Sourcery CodeBench Lite
Toolchain for Linux
Pinquino Toolchain can be downloaded here:
https://github.com/PinguinoIDE/pinguino-compilers
Sourcery CodeBench Lite Toolchain for Linux can be downloaded and
installed as follows:
$ wget https://sourcery.mentor.com/GNUToolchain/package12725/public/mips-sde-elf/mips-2014.05-24-mips-sde-elf-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
$ sudo tar xvjf mips-2014.05-24-mips-sde-elf-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2 \
-C /usr/local
Building NuttX for the chipKIT Wi-FIRE board
============================================
$ cd nuttx
$ make apps_distclean
$ make distclean
$ ./tools/configure.sh -l chipkit-wifire:nsh
$ make
Programming Flash
=================
CAUTION:
Currently the pre-installed bootloader of the chipKIT Wi-FIRE board
is not supported in this NuttX configuration. Doing the following
steps will erase the factory installed bootloader in the Flash
memory! If you are going to recover the bootloader later on your
chipKIT Wi-FIRE board, the original chipKIT bootloader can be found here:
https://reference.digilentinc.com/_media/chipkit_wifire/chipkit-wifire-v01000303.zip
Flash memory can be programmed by pic32prog utility
(https://github.com/sergev/pic32prog.git) and PICkit 2 programmer
(via 6-pin ICSP (JP1) of chipKIT Wi-FIRE board) as follows:
$ sudo pic32prog nuttx.hex
Serial console
==============
Connect USB cable from your PC to connector J1 (labeled "UART") of
the chipKIT Wi-FIRE board.
Then use some serial console client (minicom, picocom, teraterm, etc)
configured to 115200 8n1 without software or hardware flow control.
Reset the board and you should see NuttX starting in the serial.
