This release fixes several bugs:
The nuttx-0.3.12 release includes some minor bugfixes as well as a few new features.
Bugs fixed include:
<ul>
<li>Corrected an error in recursive mutex implementation.</li>
<li>task_create() was only dup'in the first three file descriptors.</li>
<li>Fixed driver open reference counting errors in dup(), dup2(), and exit().</li>
<li>Fixed error handling logic in fflush().</li>
</ul>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Two POSIX timer bugs: a memory leak as well a fatal sequencing error.</li>
<li>Several FAT filesystem errors.</li>
<li>A deadlock that can occur in <code>opendir()</code></li>
</ul>
<p>
A few new features were also added:
New features were also added:
<ul>
<li>Pipes and pipe() API</li>
<li>FIFOs and mkfifo() API</li>
<li>mkfatfs() API can be used to format FAT file systems.</li>
</ul>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Support for recursive mutexes</li>
<li>Added a RAM disk block driver</li>
<li>The host simulator no longer uses direct Linux system calls and now also works on Cygwin.</li>
<li>The OS test was strengthen and now runs as an endurance test</li>
</ul>
<p>
As usual, any feedback about bugs or suggestions for improvement would be greatly appreciated.

0.3.12 2008-08-10 Gregory Nutt <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
* Add support for recursive mutexes.
* Eliminate a memory leak -- contained watchdog instance was not being
deleted with a POSIX timer was deleted reported by kwonsk.
* Eliminate a deadlock condition in opendir() reported by kwonsk.
* Fix several FAT filesystem problems reported by kwonsk (Changes not yet
verified).
* Host simulator no longer uses Linux system calls directly; Now works with Cygwin.
* Fix an error that occurs when a POSIX timer is deleted by the timer signal handler.
* Add logic to allow the examples/ostest to be run repetitively as an endurance test.
* Add a ramdisk block driver
* Improved solution to POSIX timer lifetime controls bug fixed in 0.3.11.
* Add test for recursive mutexes
* Correct bug in recursive mutex logic
* Add mkfifo()
* Add pipe() and test for both pipes and fifos
* Attempts to open a FIFO will now block until there is at least one writer
* Add test/Fixed errors in FIFO reader/writer interlocks
* Removed limitation: task_create() was only dup'ing 3 file descriptors (now
dups all open file descriptors).
* Added a test for redirection of stdio through pipes
* Fixed error in dup and dup2: Must call open/close methods in fs/driver so that
driver can correctly maintain open reference counts.
* Same issue on closing file descriptors in exit()
* Fixed in error in stdio flush logic. Needed ssize_t vs size_t for error
check.
* Moved all FAT related files from fs to fs/fat
* Implemented mkfatfs(), a non-standard API to create a FAT filesystem on a
block device (not yet tested).
* Added a test for mkfatfs() on a RAM disk in examples/mount and verified
basic mkfatfs functionality for FAT12.
