nuttx-6.9 2011-08-19 Gregory Nutt <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
|
||||
|
||||
* 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 "built-in" 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).
|
||||
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/chip.h: Fix some chip memory configuration errors
|
||||
for the LPC1764, LPC1756, and LPC1754 (submitted by Li Zhuoy (Lzzy))
|
||||
* arch/arm/src/lpc17xx/lpc17_can.h: Revised CAN driver submitted by
|
||||
Li Zhuoy (Lzzy). The driver now supports both CAN1 and CAN2.
|
||||
* arch/arm/sim/up_lcd.c: Add a simulated LCD driver.
|
||||
* configs/stm3210e-eval/nxlines: Added a configuration to build
|
||||
examples/nxlines.
|
||||
* arch/graphics: Used apps/examples/nxlines to (finally) verify the NX
|
||||
trapezoid drawing functions and (wide) line drawing functions.
|
||||
* arch/rgmp and configs/rgmp. Yu Qiang has ported RGMP to the OMAP4430 (arm)
|
||||
pandaboard and release the new RGMP 0.3 version. The main changes are: (1)
|
||||
Separate configs/rgmp/x86 and configs/rgmp/arm configuration directory, and
|
||||
(2) Extract architecture dependent code in arch/rgmp/include and
|
||||
arch/rgmp/src into corresponding x86/ and arm/ directories.
|
||||
* arch/arm/src/kinetis, arch/arm/include/kinetis, configs/kwikstick-k40:
|
||||
Add a directory structure to support the port to the Kinetis KwikStik-K40.
|
||||
There is no real substance in the initial check-in; only the directory
|
||||
structure and skeleton files (Code complete on 8/15/11).
|
||||
* arch/arm/include/armv7-m, arch/arm/src/armv7-m, etc.: Rename all cortexm3
|
||||
directories and files to armv7-m; Change name of of all CORTEXM3 constants
|
||||
to ARMV7M. This is a major namespace change needed to cleanly support the
|
||||
ARM Cortex-M4 which is also in the ARMv7 M Series (specifically, ARMv7E-M).
|
||||
* sched/sig_initialize.c, sig_received.c, and mq_waitirq.c. Fixed several
|
||||
critical bugs related to signal handling initialization and for signals
|
||||
the wake up tasks that are waiting to send or receive message queues. In
|
||||
the first two files, errors would prevent proper allocation of signal-related
|
||||
structures from interrupt handlers. In the second, there was missing
|
||||
"clean-up" logic after a signal occurred, leaving the message queue in
|
||||
a bad state and resulting in PANICs. All are important. (submitted by
|
||||
hkwilton).
|
||||
* arch/arm/src/kinetis: Added header files defining all Kinetis registers
|
||||
and bit fields within all Kinetis registers.
|
||||
* configs/twr-k60n512: Add support for the Kinetis K60 Tower board
|
||||
(TWR-K60N512).
|
||||
* drivers/can.c: Fixe a semaphore overflow problem in the CAN driver
|
||||
(reported by Li Zhouy (Lzzy)).
|
||||
* 8/18/2011: The basic port to the FreeScale Kinetics TWR-K60N512 board is
|
||||
now functional.
|
||||
* confgs/twr-k60n512: Add Kinetics TWR-K60N512 NSH configuration.
|
||||
* drivers/analog and include/nuttx/analog: Add ADC driver infrastructure
|
||||
and TI ADS1255 driver developed and submitted by Li Zhouy (Lzzy)).
|
||||
* arch/arm/stm32/stm32_sdio.h and drivers/mmcsd/mmcsd.c: Add logic to
|
||||
multiplex usage of the GPIO pins (contributed by Uros Platise).
|
||||
* configs/twr-k60n512/nsh: Added and verified a NuttShell (NSH)
|
||||
configuration for the Freescale, Kinetis TWR-K60N512 board.

|
||||
apps-6.9 2011-08-19 Gregory Nutt <spudmonkey@racsa.co.cr>
|
||||
|
||||
* apps/examples/nx and nxtext: These examples can now be built as NSH
|
||||
"built-in" commands.
|
||||
* apps/examples/nxhello: The simplest graphics example: It just says
|
||||
"Hello, World!" in the center of the display. This example can also be
|
||||
built as an NSH "built-in" 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 "built-in" command.
|
||||
* apps/examples/usbstorage: Can now be built as two NSH "built-in" 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.
|
||||
* apps/examples/nxlines: Added a test for NX line drawing capabilities.
