README
======
This README discusses issues unique to NuttX configurations for the
STMicro STM32F429I-DISCO development board featuring the STM32F429ZIT6
MCU. The STM32F429ZIT6 is a 180MHz Cortex-M4 operation with 2Mbit Flash
memory and 256kbytes. The board features:
- On-board ST-LINK/V2 for programming and debugging,
- On-board 64 Mbits (8 Mbytes) External SDRAM (1 Mbit x 16-bit x 4-bank)
- LIS302DL, ST MEMS motion sensor, 3-axis digital output accelerometer,
- TFT 2.4" LCD, 262K color RGB, 240 x 320 pixels
- Touchscreen controller
- Two user LEDs and two push-buttons,
- USB OTG FS with micro-AB connector, and
- Easy access to most MCU pins.
NOTE: Includes basic NSH command support with full 8MByte SDRAM + the
internal 256K. Unsupported are the LCD and USB interfaces.
The board pin configuration to support on-board SDRAM and LCD
prevents use of the OTG FS module which is normally used for USB
NSH sessions. Instead, the board routes the OTG HS pins to the
USB OTG connector.
The NSH configuration / testing that has been done so far was
performed by connecting an external RS-232 line driver to pins
PA9 (TX) and PA10 (RX) and configuring UART1 as the NSH console.
Refer to the http://www.st.com website for further information about this
board (search keyword: 429i-disco)

Development Environment
=======================
The Development environments for the STM32F429I-DISCO board are identical
to the environments for other STM32F boards. For full details on the
environment options and setup, see the README.txt file in the
config/stm32f4discovery directory.
LEDs
====
The STM32F429I-DISCO board has two user LEDs; green, and red on the board
board. These LEDs are not used by the board port unless CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS is
defined. In that case, the usage by the board port is defined in
include/board.h and src/up_leds.c. The LEDs are used to encode OS-related
events as follows:
SYMBOL Meaning LED1* LED2
green red
------------------- ----------------------- ------- -------
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started ON OFF
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF ON
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled ON ON
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created OFF ON
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt** ON ON
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler N/C ON
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed ON ON
LED_PANIC The system has crashed ON BLINK
LED_IDLE STM32 is is sleep mode (Optional, not used)
* In normal mode, LED1 will be on and LED2 might flicker a bit as IRQs
and SIGNALS are processed.
* If LED1 is on and LED2 is blinking, then NuttX probably failed to boot
or is in a PANIC condition.
UARTs
=====
On the STM32F429I-DISCO board, because of pin mappings to support the
onboard SDRAM and LCD, the only UARTs that has both RX and TX pins
avilalbe are USART1 and UART5. Other USARTS could be used for RX or TX
only, or they could be used for full-duplex if the other pin functions
aren't being used (i.e. LCD or SDRAM).

FPU
===
FPU Configuration Options
-------------------------
There are two version of the FPU support built into the STM32 port.
1. Lazy Floating Point Register Save.
This is an untested implementation that saves and restores FPU registers
only on context switches. This means: (1) floating point registers are
not stored on each context switch and, hence, possibly better interrupt
performance. But, (2) since floating point registers are not saved,
you cannot use floating point operations within interrupt handlers.
This logic can be enabled by simply adding the following to your .config
file:
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
2. Non-Lazy Floating Point Register Save
Mike Smith has contributed an extensive re-write of the ARMv7-M exception
handling logic. This includes verified support for the FPU. These changes
have not yet been incorporated into the mainline and are still considered
experimental. These FPU logic can be enabled with:
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
CONFIG_ARMV7M_CMNVECTOR=y
You will probably also changes to the ld.script in if this option is selected.
This should work:
-ENTRY(_stext)
+ENTRY(__start) /* Treat __start as the anchor for dead code stripping */
+EXTERN(_vectors) /* Force the vectors to be included in the output */
CFLAGS
------
Only recent GCC toolchains have built-in support for the Cortex-M4 FPU. You will see
the following lines in each Make.defs file:
ifeq ($(CONFIG_ARCH_FPU),y)
ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-m4 -mthumb -march=armv7e-m -mfpu=fpv4-sp-d16 -mfloat-abi=hard
else
ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-m3 -mthumb -mfloat-abi=soft
endif
Configuration Changes
---------------------
Below are all of the configuration changes that I had to make to configs/stm3240g-eval/nsh2
in order to successfully build NuttX using the Atollic toolchain WITH FPU support:
-CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=n : Enable FPU support
+CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
-CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : Disable the CodeSourcery toolchain
+CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=n
-CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=n : Enable the Atollic toolchain
+CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=y :
-CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=y : Suppress generation FLASH download formats
+CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=n : (Only necessary with the "Lite" version)
-CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=y : Suppress generation of C++ code
+CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=n : (Only necessary with the "Lite" version)
See the section above on Toolchains, NOTE 2, for explanations for some of
the configuration settings. Some of the usual settings are just not supported
by the "Lite" version of the Atollic toolchain.
FMC SDRAM
=========
On-board SDRAM
--------------
The STM32F429I-DISCO has 8 MBytes on-board SDRAM connected to the MCU's
SDRAM Bank 2 connections (Bank 6 of the FSMC). This means the 8 MBytes
(when enabled) is mapped to address 0xD0000000-0xD07FFFFF. The port for
the STM32F429I-DISCO board includes support for using the onboard 8M SDRAM.
Configuration Options
---------------------
Internal SRAM is available in all members of the STM32 family. The F4 family
also contains internal CCM SRAM. This SRAM is different because it cannot
be used for DMA. So if DMA needed, then the following should be defined
to exclude CCM SRAM from the heap:
CONFIG_STM32_CCMEXCLUDE : Exclude CCM SRAM from the HEAP
In addition to internal SRAM, SRAM may also be available through the FSMC.
In order to use FSMC SRAM, the following additional things need to be
present in the NuttX configuration file:
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC=y : Enables the FSMC and the 8MByte SDRAM
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC_SRAM=y : Indicates that SRAM is available via the
FSMC (as opposed to an LCD or FLASH).
CONFIG_HEAP2_BASE : The base address of the SRAM in the FSMC
address space. This should be 0xD0000000.
CONFIG_HEAP2_SIZE : The size of the SRAM in the FSMC
address space. This should be 8388608.
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS : Must be set to a large enough value to
include the FSMC SDRAM (1, 2 or 3 depending
if the CCM RAM and/or FSCM SDRAM are enabled).
SRAM Configurations
--------------------
There are 4 possible SRAM configurations:
Configuration 1. System SRAM (only)
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS == 1
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC_SRAM NOT defined
CONFIG_STM32_CCMEXCLUDE defined
Configuration 2. System SRAM and CCM SRAM
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS == 2
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC_SRAM NOT defined
CONFIG_STM32_CCMEXCLUDE NOT defined
Configuration 3. System SRAM and FSMC SRAM
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS == 2
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC_SRAM defined
CONFIG_STM32_CCMEXCLUDE defined
Configuration 4. System SRAM, CCM SRAM, and FSMC SRAM
CONFIG_MM_REGIONS == 3
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC_SRAM defined
CONFIG_STM32_CCMEXCLUDE NOT defined
STM32F429I-DISCO-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_CORTEXM4=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_STM32F407VG=y
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG - Enables special STM32 clock
configuration features.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG=n

hence, the board that supports the particular chip or SoC.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD=STM32F429I-DISCO (for the STM32F429I-DISCO development board)
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_name - For use in C code
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32F4_DISCOVERY=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_RAM_SIZE - Describes the installed DRAM (SRAM in this case):
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=0x00010000 (64Kb)
CONFIG_RAM_START - The start address of installed DRAM
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x20000000
CONFIG_STM32_CCMEXCLUDE - Exclude CCM SRAM from the HEAP
In addition to internal SRAM, SRAM may also be available through the FSMC.
In order to use FSMC SRAM, the following additional things need to be
present in the NuttX configuration file:
CONFIG_STM32_FSMC_SRAM - Indicates that SRAM is available via the
FSMC (as opposed to an LCD or FLASH).
CONFIG_HEAP2_BASE - The base address of the SRAM in the FSMC address space (hex)
CONFIG_HEAP2_SIZE - The size of the SRAM in the FSMC address space (decimal)
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU - The STM32F429I-DISCO supports a floating point unit (FPU)
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=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.

Timer devices may be used for different purposes. One special purpose is
to generate modulated outputs for such things as motor control. If CONFIG_STM32_TIMn
is defined (as above) then the following may also be defined to indicate that
the timer is intended to be used for pulsed output modulation, ADC conversion,
or DAC conversion. Note that ADC/DAC require two definition: Not only do you have
to assign the timer (n) for used by the ADC or DAC, but then you also have to
configure which ADC or DAC (m) it is assigned to.
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_PWM Reserve timer n for use by PWM, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADC Reserve timer n for use by ADC, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_ADCm Reserve timer n to trigger ADCm, n=1,..,14, m=1,..,3
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_DAC Reserve timer n for use by DAC, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32_TIMn_DACm Reserve timer n to trigger DACm, n=1,..,14, m=1,..,2
For each timer that is enabled for PWM usage, we need the following additional
configuration settings:
CONFIG_STM32_TIMx_CHANNEL - Specifies the timer output channel {1,..,4}
NOTE: The STM32 timers are each capable of generating different signals on
each of the four channels with different duty cycles. That capability is
not supported by this driver: Only one output channel per timer.
JTAG Enable settings (by default only SW-DP is enabled):
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_FULL_ENABLE - Enables full SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_NOJNTRST_ENABLE - Enables full SWJ (JTAG-DP + SW-DP)
but without JNTRST.
CONFIG_STM32_JTAG_SW_ENABLE - Set JTAG-DP disabled and SW-DP enabled
STM32F429I-DISCO specific device driver settings
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_SERIAL_CONSOLE - selects the USARTn (n=1,2,3) or UART
m (m=4,5) for the console and ttys0 (default is the USART1).
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_RXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered as received.
This specific the size of the receive buffer
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_TXBUFSIZE - Characters are buffered before
being sent. This specific the size of the transmit buffer
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_BAUD - The configure BAUD of the UART. Must be
CONFIG_U[S]ARTn_BITS - The number of bits. Must be either 7 or 8.

CONFIG_CAN - Enables CAN support (one or both of CONFIG_STM32_CAN1 or
CONFIG_STM32_CAN2 must also be defined)
CONFIG_CAN_EXTID - Enables support for the 29-bit extended ID. Default
Standard 11-bit IDs.
CONFIG_CAN_FIFOSIZE - The size of the circular buffer of CAN messages.
Default: 8
CONFIG_CAN_NPENDINGRTR - The size of the list of pending RTR requests.
Default: 4
CONFIG_CAN_LOOPBACK - A CAN driver may or may not support a loopback
mode for testing. The STM32 CAN driver does support loopback mode.
CONFIG_CAN1_BAUD - CAN1 BAUD rate. Required if CONFIG_STM32_CAN1 is defined.
CONFIG_CAN2_BAUD - CAN1 BAUD rate. Required if CONFIG_STM32_CAN2 is defined.
CONFIG_CAN_TSEG1 - The number of CAN time quanta in segment 1. Default: 6
CONFIG_CAN_TSEG2 - the number of CAN time quanta in segment 2. Default: 7
CONFIG_CAN_REGDEBUG - If CONFIG_DEBUG is set, this will generate an
dump of all CAN registers.
STM32F429I-DISCO SPI Configuration

Configurations
==============
Each STM32F429I-DISCO configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
can be selected as follow:
cd tools
./configure.sh STM32F429I-DISCO/<subdir>
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
If this is a Windows native build, then configure.bat should be used
instead of configure.sh:
configure.bat STM32F429I-DISCO\<subdir>
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
ltdc:
----
STM32F429I-DISCO LTDC Framebuffer demo example. See
configs/stm32f429i-disco/ltdc/README.txt for additional information.
nsh:
---
Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at apps/examples/nsh. The
Configuration enables the serial interfaces on UART2. Support for
builtin applications is enabled, but in the base configuration no
builtin applications are selected (see NOTES below).
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change this configuration using that tool, you should:
a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt
see additional README.txt files in the NuttX tools repository.
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. By default, this configuration uses the CodeSourcery toolchain
for Windows and builds under Cygwin (or probably MSYS). That
can easily be reconfigured, of course.
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Builds under Windows
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Using Cygwin
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery for Windows
3. This example supports the PWM test (apps/examples/pwm) but this must
be manually enabled by selecting:
CONFIG_PWM=y : Enable the generic PWM infrastructure
CONFIG_STM32_TIM4=y : Enable TIM4
CONFIG_STM32_TIM4_PWM=y : Use TIM4 to generate PWM output
See also apps/examples/README.txt
Special PWM-only debug options:
CONFIG_DEBUG_PWM
5. This example supports the Quadrature Encode test (apps/examples/qencoder)
but this must be manually enabled by selecting:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_QENCODER=y : Enable the apps/examples/qencoder
CONFIG_SENSORS=y : Enable support for sensors
CONFIG_QENCODER=y : Enable the generic Quadrature Encoder infrastructure
CONFIG_STM32_TIM8=y : Enable TIM8
CONFIG_STM32_TIM2=n : (Or optionally TIM2)
CONFIG_STM32_TIM8_QE=y : Use TIM8 as the quadrature encoder
CONFIG_STM32_TIM2_QE=y : (Or optionally TIM2)
See also apps/examples/README.txt. Special debug options:
CONFIG_DEBUG_SENSORS
6. This example supports the watchdog timer test (apps/examples/watchdog)
but this must be manually enabled by selecting:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG=y : Enable the apps/examples/watchdog
CONFIG_WATCHDOG=y : Enables watchdog timer driver support
CONFIG_STM32_WWDG=y : Enables the WWDG timer facility, OR
CONFIG_STM32_IWDG=y : Enables the IWDG timer facility (but not both)
The WWDG watchdog is driven off the (fast) 42MHz PCLK1 and, as result,
has a maximum timeout value of 49 milliseconds. for WWDG watchdog, you
should also add the fillowing to the configuration file:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG_PINGDELAY=20
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT=49
The IWDG timer has a range of about 35 seconds and should not be an issue.
7. USB Support (CDC/ACM device)
CONFIG_STM32_OTGFS=y : STM32 OTG FS support
CONFIG_USBDEV=y : USB device support must be enabled
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : The CDC/ACM driver must be built
CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS=y : NSH built-in application support must be enabled
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : To perform USB initialization
8. Using the USB console.
The STM32F429I-DISCO NSH configuration can be set up to use a USB CDC/ACM
(or PL2303) USB console. The normal way that you would configure the
the USB console would be to change the .config file like this:
CONFIG_STM32_OTGFS=y : STM32 OTG FS support
CONFIG_USART2_SERIAL_CONSOLE=n : Disable the USART2 console
CONFIG_DEV_CONSOLE=n : Inhibit use of /dev/console by other logic
CONFIG_USBDEV=y : USB device support must be enabled
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : The CDC/ACM driver must be built
CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE=y : Enable the CDC/ACM USB console.
NOTE: When you first start the USB console, you have hit ENTER a few
times before NSH starts. The logic does this to prevent sending USB data
before there is anything on the host side listening for USB serial input.
9. Here is an alternative USB console configuration. The following
configuration will also create a NSH USB console but this version
will use /dev/console. Instead, it will use the normal /dev/ttyACM0
USB serial device for the console:
CONFIG_STM32_OTGFS=y : STM32 OTG FS support
CONFIG_USART2_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y : Keep the USART2 console
CONFIG_DEV_CONSOLE=y : /dev/console exists (but NSH won't use it)
CONFIG_USBDEV=y : USB device support must be enabled
CONFIG_CDCACM=y : The CDC/ACM driver must be built
CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE=n : Don't use the CDC/ACM USB console.
CONFIG_NSH_USBCONSOLE=y : Instead use some other USB device for the console
The particular USB device that is used is:
CONFIG_NSH_USBCONDEV="/dev/ttyACM0"
The advantage of this configuration is only that it is easier to
bet working. This alternative does has some side effects:
- When any other device other than /dev/console is used for a user
interface, linefeeds (\n) will not be expanded to carriage return /
linefeeds (\r\n). You will need to set your terminal program to account
for this.
- /dev/console still exists and still refers to the serial port. So
you can still use certain kinds of debug output (see include/debug.h, all
of the interfaces based on lowsyslog will work in this configuration).
- But don't enable USB debug output! Since USB is console is used for
USB debug output and you are using a USB console, there will be
infinite loops and deadlocks: Debug output generates USB debug
output which generatates USB debug output, etc. If you want USB
debug output, you should consider enabling USB trace
(CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE) and perhaps the USB monitor (CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMONITOR).
See the usbnsh configuration below for more information on configuring
USB trace output and the USB monitor.
10. USB OTG FS Host Support. The following changes will enable support for
a USB host on the STM32F429I-DISCO, including support for a mass storage
class driver:
Device Drivers ->
CONFIG_USBDEV=n : Make sure tht USB device support is disabled
CONFIG_USBHOST=y : Enable USB host support
CONFIG_USBHOST_ISOC_DISABLE=y
Device Drivers -> USB Host Driver Support
CONFIG_USBHOST_MSC=y : Enable the mass storage class
System Type -> STM32 Peripheral Support
CONFIG_STM32_OTGHS=y : Enable the STM32 USB OTG FH block (FS mode)
CONFIG_STM32_SYSCFG=y : Needed for all USB OTF HS support
RTOS Features -> Work Queue Support
CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE=y : High priority worker thread support is required
CONFIG_SCHED_HPWORK=y : for the mass storage class driver.
File Systems ->
CONFIG_FS_FAT=y : Needed by the USB host mass storage class.
Board Selection ->
CONFIG_LIB_BOARDCTL=y : Needed for CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT
Application Configuration -> NSH Library
CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y : Architecture specific USB initialization
: is needed for NSH
With those changes, you can use NSH with a FLASH pen driver as shown
belong. Here NSH is started with nothing in the USB host slot:
NuttShell (NSH) NuttX-x.yy
nsh> ls /dev
/dev:
console
null
ttyS0
After inserting the FLASH drive, the /dev/sda appears and can be
mounted like this:
nsh> ls /dev
/dev:
console
null
sda
ttyS0
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/stuff
nsh> ls /mnt/stuff
/mnt/stuff:
-rw-rw-rw- 16236 filea.c
And files on the FLASH can be manipulated to standard interfaces:
nsh> echo "This is a test" >/mnt/stuff/atest.txt
nsh> ls /mnt/stuff
/mnt/stuff:
-rw-rw-rw- 16236 filea.c
-rw-rw-rw- 16 atest.txt
nsh> cat /mnt/stuff/atest.txt
This is a test
nsh> cp /mnt/stuff/filea.c fileb.c
nsh> ls /mnt/stuff
/mnt/stuff:
-rw-rw-rw- 16236 filea.c
-rw-rw-rw- 16 atest.txt
-rw-rw-rw- 16236 fileb.c
To prevent data loss, don't forget to un-mount the FLASH drive
before removing it:
nsh> umount /mnt/stuff
11. I used this configuration to test the USB hub class. I did this
testing with the following changes to the configuration (in addition
to those listed above for base USB host/mass storage class support):
Drivers -> USB Host Driver Support
CONFIG_USBHOST_HUB=y : Enable the hub class
CONFIG_USBHOST_ASYNCH=y : Asynchonous I/O supported needed for hubs
Board Selection ->
CONFIG_STM32F429IDISCO_USBHOST_STACKSIZE=2048 (bigger than it needs to be)
RTOS Features -> Work Queue Support
CONFIG_SCHED_LPWORK=y : Low priority queue support is needed
CONFIG_SCHED_LPNTHREADS=1
CONFIG_SCHED_LPWORKSTACKSIZE=1024
NOTES:
1. It is necessary to perform work on the low-priority work queue
(vs. the high priority work queue) because deferred hub-related
work requires some delays and waiting that is not appropriate on
the high priority work queue.
2. Stack usage make increase when USB hub support is enabled because
the nesting depth of certain USB host class logic can increase.
STATUS:

Appears to be fully functional.
extflash:
---------
This is another NSH example. If differs from other 'nsh' configurations
in that this configuration defines an external 8 MByte SPI FLASH (the
SST25VF064C part from Silicon Storage Technology, Inc.) which must be
be connected to the Discovery board's SPI4 pins on the expansion pins.
Additionally, this demo uses UART1 for the console
NOTES:
1. This configuration assumes an SST25VF064C 8Mbyte SPI FLASH is
connected to SPI4 on the following Discovery board Pins:
SCK: Port PE2 Board Connector P1, Pin 15
MOSI: Port PE6 Board Connector P1, Pin 11
MISO: Port PE5 Board Connector P1, Pin 14
CS: Port PE4 Board Connector P1, Pin 13
2. This configuration does have UART1 output enabled and set up as
the system logging device. To use this UART, you must add an
external RS-232 line driver to the UART1 pins of the DISCO board
on PA9 and PA10 of connector P1.
usbnsh:
------
This is another NSH example. If differs from other 'nsh' configurations
in that this configurations uses a USB serial device for console I/O.
Such a configuration is useful on the stm32f429i-disco which has no
builtin RS-232 drivers.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change this configuration using that tool, you should:
a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt
see additional README.txt files in the NuttX tools repository.
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. This configuration does have UART1 output enabled and set up as
the system logging device. To use this UART, you must add an
external RS-232 line driver to the UART1 pins of the DISCO board
on PA9 and PA10 of connector P1.
usbmsc:
------
This is an example of enabling the FS OTG port on the DISCO board for
mass storage use. It provides an NSH session on UART1 to allow
accessing the connected USB mass storage device. Such a configuration
is useful on the stm32f429i-disco which has no onboard SD card or mass
storage solution.
NOTES:
1. This configuration uses UART1 as the system console. To use this
UART, you must add an external RS-232 line driver to the UART1 pins
of the DISCO board on PA9 and PA10 of connector P1.
2. The mass storage device will appear as /dev/sda and supports FAT
formatted "thumb" flash drives with:
nsh> mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mount_name
