nuttx-6.7 2011-08-02 Gregory Nutt &lt;spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr&gt;
* drivers/mtd/ramtron.c, net/net_checksd.c, fs/fs_fdopen.c, and include/nuttx/mii.h:
Several structural changes made to get a clean compile under the ez80 ZDS-II
toolchain (no design changes).
* drivers/usbhost/usbhost_storage.c: Incorpated bugfixes reported by Sheref H.
Younan: (1) Read capacity logic read largest block, not the number of blocks
and was, therefore, off by one, and (2) Some devices stall of get Max LUN request
if they support only a single LUN. Logic now assumes a single LUN if the get
Max LUN request fails.
* include/nuttx/arch.h, lib/stdio/lib_libvsprintf.c, lib/stdio/lib_fputs.c: Add
a new configuration option to support extracting strings from FLASH or EEPROM
or other memories where the string data cannot be accessed by simply de-referencing
a string pointer.
* arch/sim/src/up_romgetc.c: Used to test the basic logic to access strings
without directly de-referencing a string pointer.
* arch/avr/src/avr/up_romget.c: Used to access strings that lie in the first
64Kb of FLASH (But I still haven't figured out how to get strings to reside in
FLASH without using the PROGMEM attribute).
* configs/teensy/src/up_spi.c: Correct reading of SD CD and WP pins (was reading
the wrong register. AVR SPI now appears to be functional.
* arch/avr/src/at90usb/at90usb_usbdev.c: Correct USB initialization. Interrupts
were being enabled BEFORE the interrupt handler was attached.
* configs/sure-pic32mx: Add a configuration for the Sure Electronics, &quot;Advanced USB
Storage Demo Board,&quot; Model DB-DP11215 (http://www.sureelectronics.net/goods.php?id=1168).
This board features the MicroChip PIC32MX440F512H MCU. (Untested on initial
check-in).
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh2: Add another NSH configuration for the STM32 with
some different properties.
* CONFIG_NSH_CONDEV: Add a configuration option to allow using a different character
device (such a a different UART) for the NSH interface. This allows, for example,
debug output to come from the console device while using another device for NSH.
There are some issues on initial check-in: NuttX doesn't have termios and the
console device has special properties that make using NSH awkward. Examples:
No CR-LF expansion, no character echoing, no command line editting.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_lowputc.c and stm32_serial.c. Correct seversl bugs
involving serial port configuration. These bugs are only critical if you
are trying to using multiple UARTs on STM32.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/src/up_lcd.c: Add a driver for the STM3210E-EVAL's LCD.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nx: Add NX configuration for the STM3210E-EVAL.
* configs/nuttx/arch.h (and arch/arm/src/stm32, configs/*/src/up_buttons.c):
Standardize interfaces exported for button support and button interrupts.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/src/up_buttons.c: Add interrupting button support.
Also fixes a few errors in STM3210E-EVAL button decoding.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/buttons: Add a configuration to exercise STM3210E-EVAL
buttons.
* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_gpio.c: GPIO interrupt handling for pin
numbers were being aliased: 5-9 together and 10-15 together. Extended
the logic to peform decoding of GPIO interrupts and unique dispatching
for all 16 pins.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nxtext: Add a configuration for the apps/examples/nxtext
example. This example focuses on placing text on the background while
pop-up windows occur. Text should continue to update normally with or without
the popup windows present.
* arch/arm/src/common/up_checkstack.c: ARM stack overflow checking submitted
by Hal Glenn.
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx: Changes to compile successfully with no serial console
(also submitted by Hal Glenn).
* graphics/nxfonts/nxfonts_convert.c: Fixed a critical bug that caused
when renderer some fonts with bits-per-pixel &gt 8
* graphics/nxbe/nxbe_move.c: Fixed an error in the graphics move logic (This
was a previously untested interface). Basically, there is some confusion
between use of (x,y) as a relative offset or as an absolute position.
* graphics/nxbe/nxbe_close.c: Fixed an important graphics system bug:
When a window is closed, the display was not being updated. The old
window graphic was left on the display for a time.
* Makefile: Added a export target that will bundle up all of the NuttX
libraries, header files, and the startup object into an export-able
tarball.
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_can.h: Correct some typos in the CAN
register definitions.
* drivers/serial/serialirq.c: Correct an error that can occur if the
serial RX buffer becomes full. Data is now discarded in that case;
before, leaving data in the hardware would cause infinite interrupts
one most MCUs since you must read the data in order to clear the
interrupt.
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_can.c: Added a CAN driver contributed by
Li Zhuoyi (Lzyy).
* include/stddefs.h and sys/types: Added type wchar_t.
* fs/fat/fat_fat32dirent.c: Move all FAT directory operations to this
new file; Implement VFAT long file name support.
* fs/fat/fat_fat32dirent.c: The configuration CONFIG_FAT_LCNAMES has
been around for some time but never tested until now. This setting
will mimic the NT 8.3 file name behavior: File names or extensions
may be all upper or all lower case (but not mixed). If
CONFIG_FAT_LCNAMES is not selected, all filenames are strictly upper
case.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh2: Console is back on UART1; Added
examplex/nx as an NSH &quot;built-in&quot; command as a demonstration.
* fs/fat/fs_fat32dirent.c: Fix an important bug in the directory
allocation (fat_allocatedirentry()). I looks like it could be
initializing the wrong sectors! NOTE: This function was in
fs_fat32utils.c in earlier releases.
* arch/arm/src/stm32_sdio.c: Correct an important DMA-related bug;
SDIO transfer completion events and DMA completion eventes were
not being coordinated correctly.
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh2: Enable FAT long file name support
* sched/sem_timedwait.c: Add the standard sem_timedwait() interface.
* graphics/nxfonts/nxfonts_getfont.c, nxfonts_bitmap.c,
Makefile.source, and include/nuttx/nxfonts.h: Support for multiple
fonts included. A new interface, nxf_getfonthandle() takes a font
ID and returns a handle that is now used at all other font interfaces
to specify which of the multiple fonts to use.
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_syscon.h: Fix typo (reported by Li Zhuoyi).
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nsh2: Extended to support two new commands:
'msconn' will connect the USB mass storage device; 'msdis' will
disconnect the USB storage device.
* tools/bdf-converter.c. This C file is used to build the bdf-converter
program. The bdf-converter program be used to convert fonts in Bitmap
Distribution Format (BDF) into fonts that can be used in the NX graphics
system.
* include/nuttx/nx: Move all NX header files from include/nuttx to
include/nuttx/nx.
* drivers/usbdev/usbdev_usbstorage.c and arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_usbdev.c:
Correct a memory leak when the USB mass storage driver is connected and
then disconnected from the target. The write requests were not being
freed. NOTE that the unregister logic in the STM32 needed to call
stm32_reset() in order to return the write requests to the USB mass
storage driver; it is possible that a similar but could exist for other
architectures.
* graphics/nxfonts/nxfonts_*.h: Add serveral more new fonts
* arch/z80/src/ez80/ez80_serial.c: Fix some errors in serial driver
setup for UART1 (submitted by Paul Osmialowski).
* drivers/input/tsc2007.c and include/nuttx/input/*: Add a generic NuttX
touchscreen interface. Add a driver for the TI TSC2007 touchscreen
controller.
* graphics/nxglib/lcd and fb: Add low level routines to set single pixels.
* lib/math/lib_b16atan2.c: Add a fixed precision atan2() function
* graphics/nxglib/nxglib_splitline.c: Add logic to divide a wide line into
trapezoidal components.
* graphics/nxmu/nx_drawline.c, graphics/nxsu/nx_drawline.c,
graphics/nxtk/nxtk_drawlinewindow.c, graphics/nxtk/nxtk_drawlinetoolbar.c:
Add new line drawing interfaces (untested).

apps-6.7 2011-08-02 Gregory Nutt &lt;spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr&gt;
* Make.defs, namedapp/namedapp.c: Several structural changes made to get a
clean compile under the ez80 ZDS-II toolchain (no design changes).
* apps/examples/buttons: Add a test for the new standardized button interfaces
* apps/examples/nxtext: Add another NX graphics test. This one focus on
placing text on the background while pop-up windows occur. Text should
continue to update normally with or without the popup windows present.
* apps/examples/nx and nxtext: These examples can now be built as NSH
&quot;built-in&quot; commands.
* apps/examples/nxhello: The simplest graphics example: It just says
&quot;Hello, World!&quot; in the center of the display. This example can also be
built as an NSH &quot;built-in&quot; command.
* apps/examples/nx, ntext, and nxhello: All updated to use the new
NuttX font interfaces.
* apps/examples/nximage: Another super simple graphics example: It just puts
the NuttX logo in the center of the display. This example can also be
built as an NSH &quot;built-in&quot; command.
* apps/examples/usbstorage: Can now be built as two NSH &quot;built-in&quot; commands:
'msconn' will connect the USB mass storage device; 'msdis' will disconnect
the USB storage device.
* apps/examples/nx*: All NX header files moved from nuttx/include/nuttx to
nuttx/include/nuttx/nx.
* apps/examples/usbstorage: Added instrumentation to monitor memory usage
to check for memory leaks in the USB storage driver.
* apps/examples/nxhello/nxhello_bkgd.c: Fix handling of allocated glyph
memory.
