==========
This is the README file for the NuttX port to the ZiLog ZNEO MCU.
- Console output is on UART0.
- NOTE: My board has a 20MHz crystal, but I have heard of other boards with
18.432MHz crystals. If you board has a diff crystal installed, then
modify the system frequency in include/board.h.

ZDS-II Compiler Versions
========================
Version 4.10.2
The ZDS-II version 4.10.2 will not compile NuttX. It reports "internal
errors" on some of the files. Upgrades to ZDS-II are available for
download from the Zilog website: http://www.zilog.com/software/zds2.asp
Version 4.11.0
NuttX compiles correctly with the newer 4.11.0 version of the ZDS-II
toolchain. However, I have found a few issues:
- The code will not run without the -reduceopt option. There is,
apparently, some optimization related issue. This issue has not
been analyzed as of this writing.
- Not all NuttX logic will not run with the -regvars option. There is
at least one failure that has been reported to ZiLOG as incident 81400.
Version 4.11.1
As of this writing (30 September 2010), the latest release of ZDS-II for the
ZNEO is 4.11.1. It is unknown if this release includes fixes for incidents
81400 and 81459 or not. It is unknown if the code will run without -reduceopt
either. (Basically, it compiles with 4.11.1, but is untested with that version).
Version 4.12.0
Never tested
Version 5.0.0
Never tested
Version 5.0.1
On November 29, 2012, all of the z16f configurations were converted to use 5.0.1,
but have not been verified on a running target.
Paths were also updated that are specific to a 32-bit toolchain running on
a 64 bit windows platform. Change to a different toolchain, you will need
to modify the versioning in the Make.defs file; if you want to build
on a different platform, you will need to change the path in the ZDS binaries
in those that file and your PATH environment variable.
Version 5.2.1
On June 2, 2019, support for the 5.2.1 ZDS-II toolchain was added.
I started verification using 5.30 on June 2, 2019. To use this toolchain,
I had to suppress the gmtime() and gmtimer() because these were causing an
internal compiler error:
time\lib_gmtimer.c
P2: Internal Error(0xB47E59):
Please contact Technical Support
This is the change to suppress building these files:
diff --git a/libs/libc/time/Make.defs b/libs/libc/time/Make.defs
index 2a26d556ff..08fd0b7bcd 100644

+CSRCS += lib_mktime.c #lib_gmtime.c lib_gmtimer.c
endif
The consequence is, of course, that these interfaces will not be available
to applications.
Another issue is that the ZDS-II version of stdarg.h does not provide
va_copy(). This affects libs/libc/lib_sysloc.c.
There are a few outstanding build issues, but it seems close enough for
the time being.
Version 5.2.2
Verified April 29, 2020. No serious compilation issues were encountered.
Other Versions
If you use any version of ZDS-II or if you install ZDS-II at any location
other than the default location, you will have to modify
arch/z16/src/z16f/Kconfig and
boards/z16/z16f/z16f2800100zcog/scripts/Make.defs.
Simply edit that file, changing 5.0.1 to whatever.
Patches
=======
A bug has been found in the ZDS-II toolchain version 5.0.1. a patch is
available to work around the bug. A summary of the nature the bug and
instructions for applying the patch follow.
Parameters are passed different to variadic functions (i.e., functions
that accept a varying number of parameters) than to regular functions. For
most functions, parameters are passed in registers, beginning with R1. But
for variadic functions, all parameters must be passed on the stack.
The logic works correctly for global functions, local functions, and most
function pointers. It does not work correctly for the case where a variadic
function point is included within a structure. In that case, the caller
inappropriately passes the parameters in registers; the receiver will
attempt to recover the parameters from the stack and a failure then follows.
This bug prevents the use of NSH with the ZNEO. However, a patch has been
developed that works around the problem. That patch can be found at
boards/z16/z16f/z16f2800100zcog/tools/zneo-zdsii-5_0_1-variadic-func-fix.patch.
In that directory is also a bash script that will apply that patch for you.
The patch would be applied when NuttX is configured as follows:
tools/configure.sh z16f2800100zcog:nsh
dopatch.sh
make
The patch can also be removed with:
dopatch.sh -R
See the section "Selecting Configurations" below.
Serial Console
==============
By default, console output is on UART1 which corresponds to the DB9
connector labelled CONSOLE.
UART1 is also available on JP2:
MCU PIN GPIO JP2
Pin 86 TXD1 PD5 JP2 Pin 26
Pin 87 RXD1 PD4 JP2 Pin 27
Vcc JP2 Pin 59
GND JP2 Pins 19, 39, 46, 48, 56
Selecting Configurations
========================
Variations on the basic z8f162800100zcog configuration are maintained
in subdirectories. To configure any specific configuration, do the
following steps:
tools/configure.sh z16f2800100zcog:<sub-directory>
make
Where <sub-directory> is the specific board configuration that you
wish to build. The following board-specific configurations are
available. You may also need to apply a path to NuttX before making.
Please refer the section "Patches" above"
Configuration Sub-directories
=============================
source/ and include/
--------------------
These directories contain common logic for all z16f2800100zcog
configurations.
nsh
---
nsh:
This configuration directory will built the NuttShell (NSH). See
the NSH user manual in the documents directory (or online at apache.nuttx.org).
See also the README.txt file in the nsh sub-directory for information
about using ZDS-II.
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 assumes that you are using the
Cygwin environment on Windows. An option is to use the native
CMD.exe window build as described in the top-level README.txt
file. To set up that configuration:
-CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y
+CONFIG_WINDOWS_NATIVE=y
And after configuring, make sure that CONFIG_APPS_DIR uses
the back slash character. For example:
CONFIG_APPS_DIR="..\apps"
NOTES:
a. If you need to change the toolchain path used in Make.defs, you
will need to use the short 8.3 filenames to avoid spaces. On my
PC, C:\PROGRA~1\ is is C:\Program Files\ and C:\PROGRA~2\ is
C:\Program Files (x86)\
b. I have not tried to use this configuration with the native
Windows build, but I would expect the same issues as is listed
for the ostest configuration..
STATUS:
1. Note that you must apply the ZNEO patch if you are using ZDS-II 5.0.1.
See the README.txt file in the parent directory for more information.
The configuration will run correctly with the patch applied.
ostest
------
This builds the examples/ostest application for execution from FLASH.
See the README.txt file in the ostest sub-directory for information
about using ZDS-II. See also apps/examples/README.txt for information
about ostest.

C:\Program Files (x86)\
b. At present, the native Windows build fails at the final link stages.
The failure is due to problems in arch/z16/src/nuttx.linkcmd that
is autogenerated by arch/z16/src/Makefile. The basic problem
is the spurious spaces and and carriage returns are generated at
the end of the lines after a line continuation (\ ^M). If these
trailing bad characters are manually eliminated, then the build
will succeed on the next try.
