Development Environment
=======================
Either Linux or Cygwin on Windows can be used for the development environment.
The source has been built only using the GNU toolchain (see below). Other
toolchains will likely cause problems. Testing was performed using the Cygwin
environment because the Raisonance R-Link emulatator and some RIDE7 development tools
were used and those tools works only under Windows.
GNU Toolchain Options
=====================
The NuttX make system has been modified to support the following different
toolchain options.
1. The CodeSourcery GNU toolchain,
2. The devkitARM GNU toolchain,
3. Raisonance GNU toolchain, or
4. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below).
All testing has been conducted using the NuttX buildroot toolchain. However,
the make system is setup to default to use the devkitARM toolchain. To use
the CodeSourcery, devkitARM or Raisonance GNU toolchain, you simply need to
add one of the following configuration options to your .config (or defconfig)
file:
CONFIG_STM32_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
CONFIG_STM32_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
CONFIG_STM32_DEVKITARM=y : devkitARM under Windows
CONFIG_STM32_RAISONANCE=y : Raisonance RIDE7 under Windows
CONFIG_STM32_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin (default)
If you are not using CONFIG_STM32_BUILDROOT, then you may also have to modify
the PATH in the setenv.h file if your make cannot find the tools.
NOTE: the CodeSourcery (for Windows), devkitARM, and Raisonance toolchains are
Windows native toolchains. The CodeSourcey (for Linux) and NuttX buildroot
toolchains are Cygwin and/or Linux native toolchains. There are several limitations
to using a Windows based toolchain in a Cygwin environment. The three biggest are:
1. The Windows toolchain cannot follow Cygwin paths. Path conversions are
performed automatically in the Cygwin makefiles using the 'cygpath' utility
but you might easily find some new path problems. If so, check out 'cygpath -w'
2. Windows toolchains cannot follow Cygwin symbolic links. Many symbolic links
are used in Nuttx (e.g., include/arch). The make system works around these
problems for the Windows tools by copying directories instead of linking them.
But this can also cause some confusion for you: For example, you may edit
a file in a "linked" directory and find that your changes had not effect.
That is because you are building the copy of the file in the "fake" symbolic
directory. If you use a Windows toolchain, you should get in the habit of
making like this:
make clean_context all
An alias in your .bashrc file might make that less painful.
3. Dependencies are not made when using Windows versions of the GCC. This is
because the dependencies are generated using Windows pathes which do not
work with the Cygwin make.
Support has been added for making dependencies with the windows-native toolchains.
That support can be enabled by modifying your Make.defs file as follows:
- MKDEP = $(TOPDIR)/tools/mknulldeps.sh
+ MKDEP = $(TOPDIR)/tools/mkdeps.sh --winpaths "$(TOPDIR)"
If you have problems with the dependency build (for example, if you are not
building on C:), then you may need to modify tools/mkdeps.sh
NOTE 1: The CodeSourcery toolchain (2009q1) does not work with default optimization
level of -Os (See Make.defs). It will work with -O0, -O1, or -O2, but not with
-Os.
NOTE 2: The devkitARM toolchain includes a version of MSYS make. Make sure that
the paths to Cygwin's /bin and /usr/bin directories appear BEFORE the devkitARM
path or will get the wrong version of make.
IDEs
====
NuttX is built using command-line make. It can be used with an IDE, but some
effort will be required to create the project (There is a simple RIDE project
in the RIDE subdirectory).
Makefile Build
--------------
Under Eclipse, it is pretty easy to set up an "empty makefile project" and
simply use the NuttX makefile to build the system. That is almost for free
under Linux. Under Windows, you will need to set up the "Cygwin GCC" empty
makefile project in order to work with Windows (Google for "Eclipse Cygwin" -
there is a lot of help on the internet).
Native Build
------------
Here are a few tips before you start that effort:
1) Select the toolchain that you will be using in your .config file
2) Start the NuttX build at least one time from the Cygwin command line
before trying to create your project. This is necessary to create
certain auto-generated files and directories that will be needed.
3) Set up include pathes: You will need include/, arch/arm/src/stm32,
arch/arm/src/common, arch/arm/src/armv7-m, and sched/.
4) All assembly files need to have the definition option -D __ASSEMBLY__
on the command line.
Startup files will probably cause you some headaches. The NuttX startup file
is arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_vectors.S. With RIDE, I have to build NuttX
one time from the Cygwin command line in order to obtain the pre-built
startup object needed by RIDE.
NuttX buildroot Toolchain
=========================
A GNU GCC-based toolchain is assumed. The files */setenv.sh should
be modified to point to the correct path to the Cortex-M3 GCC toolchain (if
different from the default in your PATH variable).
If you have no Cortex-M3 toolchain, one can be downloaded from the NuttX
SourceForge download site (https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=189573).
This GNU toolchain builds and executes in the Linux or Cygwin environment.
1. You must have already configured Nuttx in <some-dir>/nuttx.
cd tools
./configure.sh stm3210e-eval/<sub-dir>
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
3. unpack the buildroot tarball. The resulting directory may
have versioning information on it like buildroot-x.y.z. If so,
rename <some-dir>/buildroot-x.y.z to <some-dir>/buildroot.
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
5. cp configs/cortexm3-defconfig-4.3.3 .config
6. make oldconfig
7. make
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
the path to the newly built binaries.
See the file configs/README.txt in the buildroot source tree. That has more
detailed PLUS some special instructions that you will need to follow if you are
building a Cortex-M3 toolchain for Cygwin under Windows.
DFU
===
The linker files in these projects can be configured to indicate that you
will be loading code using STMicro built-in USB Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU)
loader or via some JTAG emulator. You can specify the DFU bootloader by
adding the following line:
CONFIG_STM32_DFU=y
to your .config file. Most of the configurations in this directory are set
up to use the DFU loader.
If CONFIG_STM32_DFU is defined, the code will not be positioned at the beginning
of FLASH (0x08000000) but will be offset to 0x08003000. This offset is needed
to make space for the DFU loader and 0x08003000 is where the DFU loader expects
to find new applications at boot time. If you need to change that origin for some
other bootloader, you will need to edit the file(s) ld.script.dfu for each
configuration.
The DFU SE PC-based software is available from the STMicro website,
http://www.st.com. General usage instructions:
1. Convert the NuttX Intel Hex file (nuttx.ihx) into a special DFU
file (nuttx.dfu)... see below for details.
2. Connect the STM3210E-EVAL board to your computer using a USB
cable.
3. Start the DFU loader on the STM3210E-EVAL board. You do this by
resetting the board while holding the "Key" button. Windows should
recognize that the DFU loader has been installed.
3. Run the DFU SE program to load nuttx.dfu into FLASH.
What if the DFU loader is not in FLASH? The loader code is available
inside of the Demo dirctory of the USBLib ZIP file that can be downloaded
from the STMicro Website. You can build it using RIDE (or other toolchains);
you will need a JTAG emulator to burn it into FLASH the first time.
In order to use STMicro's built-in DFU loader, you will have to get
the NuttX binary into a special format with a .dfu extension. The
DFU SE PC_based software installation includes a file "DFU File Manager"
conversion program that a file in Intel Hex format to the special DFU
format. When you successfully build NuttX, you will find a file called
nutt.ihx in the top-level directory. That is the file that you should
provide to the DFU File Manager. You will need to rename it to nuttx.hex
in order to find it with the DFU File Manager. You will end up with
a file called nuttx.dfu that you can use with the STMicro DFU SE program.
LEDs
====
The STM3210E-EVAL board has four LEDs labeled LD1, LD2, LD3 and LD4 on the
board. Usage of these LEDs is defined in include/board.h and src/up_leds.c.
They are encoded as follows:
SYMBOL Meaning LED1* LED2 LED3 LED4
------------------- ----------------------- ------- ------- ------- ------
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started ON OFF OFF OFF
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF ON OFF OFF
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled ON ON OFF OFF
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created OFF OFF ON OFF
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt** ON N/C N/C OFF
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler*** N/C ON N/C OFF
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed ON ON N/C OFF
LED_PANIC The system has crashed N/C N/C N/C ON
LED_IDLE STM32 is is sleep mode (Optional, not used)
* If LED1, LED2, LED3 are statically on, then NuttX probably failed to boot
and these LEDs will give you some indication of where the failure was
** The normal state is LED3 ON and LED1 faintly glowing. This faint glow
is because of timer interupts that result in the LED being illuminated
on a small proportion of the time.
*** LED2 may also flicker normally if signals are processed.
STM3210E-EVAL-specific Configuration Options
============================================
CONFIG_ARCH - Identifies the arch/ subdirectory. This should
be set to:
CONFIG_ARCH=arm
CONFIG_ARCH_family - For use in C code:
CONFIG_ARCH_ARM=y
CONFIG_ARCH_architecture - For use in C code:
CONFIG_ARCH_CORTEXM3=y
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP - Identifies the arch/*/chip subdirectory
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP=stm32
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_name - For use in C code to identify the exact
chip:
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_STM32F103ZET6
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG - Enables special STM32 clock
configuration features.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG=n
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD - Identifies the configs subdirectory and
hence, the board that supports the particular chip or SoC.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD=stm3210e_eval (for the STM3210E-EVAL development board)
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_name - For use in C code
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM3210E_EVAL=y
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC - Must be calibrated for correct operation
of delay loops
CONFIG_ENDIAN_BIG - define if big endian (default is little
endian)
CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE - Describes the installed DRAM (SRAM in this case):
CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE=0x00010000 (64Kb)
CONFIG_DRAM_START - The start address of installed DRAM
CONFIG_DRAM_START=0x20000000
CONFIG_DRAM_END - Last address+1 of installed RAM
CONFIG_DRAM_END=(CONFIG_DRAM_START+CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE)
CONFIG_ARCH_IRQPRIO - The STM32F103Z supports interrupt prioritization
CONFIG_ARCH_IRQPRIO=y
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to boards that
have LEDs
CONFIG_ARCH_INTERRUPTSTACK - This architecture supports an interrupt
stack. If defined, this symbol is the size of the interrupt
stack in bytes. If not defined, the user task stacks will be
used during interrupt handling.
CONFIG_ARCH_STACKDUMP - Do stack dumps after assertions
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to board architecture.
CONFIG_ARCH_CALIBRATION - Enables some build in instrumentation that
cause a 100 second delay during boot-up. This 100 second delay
serves no purpose other than it allows you to calibratre
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC. You simply use a stop watch to measure
the 100 second delay then adjust CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC until
the delay actually is 100 seconds.

Configurations
==============
Each STM3210E-EVAL configuration is maintained in a sudirectory and
can be selected as follow:
cd tools
./configure.sh stm3210e-eval/<subdir>
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
buttons:
--------
Uses apps/examples/buttons to exercise STM3210E-EVAL buttons and
button interrupts.
CONFIG_STM32_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
nsh and nsh2:
------------
Configure the NuttShell (nsh) located at examples/nsh.
Differences between the two NSH configurations:
=========== ======================= ================================
nsh nsh2
=========== ======================= ================================
Toolchain: NuttX buildroot for Codesourcery for Windows (1)
Linux or Cygwin (1,2)
----------- ----------------------- --------------------------------
Loader: DfuSe DfuSe
----------- ----------------------- --------------------------------
Serial Debug output: USART1 Debug output: USART1
Console: NSH output: USART1 NSH output: USART1 (3)
----------- ----------------------- --------------------------------
microSD Yes Yes

----------- ----------------------- --------------------------------
Support for No Yes
Built-in
Apps
----------- ----------------------- --------------------------------
Built-in None apps/examples/nx
Apps apps/examples/nxhello
apps/examples/usbstorage (5)
=========== ======================= ================================
(1) You will probably need to modify nsh/setenv.sh or nsh2/setenv.sh
to set up the correct PATH variable for whichever toolchain you
may use.
(2) Since DfuSe is assumed, this configuration may only work under
Cygwin without modification.
(3) When any other device other than /dev/console is used for a user
interface, (1) linefeeds (\n) will not be expanded to carriage return
/ linefeeds \r\n). You will need to configure your terminal program
to account for this. And (2) input is not automatically echoed so
you will have to turn local echo on.
(4) Microsoft holds several patents related to the design of
long file names in the FAT file system. Please refer to the
details in the top-level COPYING file. Please do not use FAT
long file name unless you are familiar with these patent issues.
(5) When built as an NSH add-on command (CONFIG_EXAMPLES_USBSTRG_BUILTIN=y),
Caution should be used to assure that the SD drive is not in use when
the USB storage device is configured. Specifically, the SD driver
should be unmounted like:
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sdcard # Card is mounted in NSH
...
nsh> umount /mnd/sdcard # Unmount before connecting USB!!!
nsh> msconn # Connect the USB storage device
...
nsh> msdis # Disconnect USB storate device
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/mmcsd0 /mnt/sdcard # Restore the mount
Failure to do this could result in corruption of the SD card format.
