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.
GNU Toolchain Options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The NuttX make system has been modified to support the following different
toolchain options.
1. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below),
2. The ARM EABI GNU toolchain, or
3. The devkitARM GNU toolchain.
All testing has been conducted using the NuttX buildroot toolchain. To use
the CodeSourcery or devkitARM GNU toolchain, you simply need to build the
system as follows:
make # Will build for the NuttX buildroot toolchain
make CROSSDEV=arm-eabi- # Will build for the devkitARM toolchain
make CROSSDEV=arm-none-eabi- # Will build for the ARM EABI GCC toolchain
make CROSSDEV=arm-nuttx-elf- # Will build for the NuttX buildroot toolchain
Of course, hard coding this CROSS_COMPILE value in Make.defs file will save
some repetitive typing.
NOTE: the CodeSourcery and devkitARM toolchains are Windows native toolchains.
The NuttX buildroot toolchain is a Cygwin toolchain. 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 no 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; make CROSSDEV=arm-none-eabi-
An alias in your .bashrc file might make that less painful.
NOTE 1: The CodeSourcery toolchain (2009q1) may 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.
NuttX buildroot Toolchain
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A GNU GCC-based toolchain is assumed. The PATH environment variable should
be modified to point to the correct path to the ARM toolchain (if
different from the default).
If you have no ARM toolchain, one can be downloaded from the NuttX
Bitbucket download site (https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/buildroot/downloads/).
1. You must have already configured NuttX in <some-dir>nuttx.
tools/configure.sh olimex-strp711:<sub-dir>
2. Download the latest buildroot package into <some-dir>
3. unpack
4. cd <some-dir>/buildroot
5. cp boards/arm-defconfig .config
or
cp boards/arm7tdmi-defconfig-4.3.3 .config (Last tested with this toolchain)
6. make oldconfig
7. make
8. Make sure that the PATH variable includes the path to the newly built
binaries.
Linux OpenOCD with Wiggler JTAG
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For a debug environment, I am using OpenOCD with a Wiggler-clone JTAG interface. The
following steps worked for me with a 20081028 OpenOCD snapshot.
GENERAL STEPS:
1. Check out OpenOCD
svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk openocd
2. Build OpenOCD
Read the INSTALL file from the files you just downloaded. You probably just need
to run:
./bootstrap
Then configure OpenOCD using the configure script created by ./bootstrap.
./configure --enable-parport
Build OpenOCD with:
make
Install OpenOCD. Since we used the default configuration the code will be
installed at /usr/local/bin/openocd. Other files will be installed at
/usr/local/lib/openocd (configuration files, scripts, etc.) and /usr/local/share/info
(online documentation accessible via 'info openocd'). You need root privileges
to do the following:
make install.
3. Setup
OpenOCD reads its configuration from the file openocd.cfg in the current directory
when started. You have two different options:
* Create a symbolic link named openocd.cfg to one of the configuration files in
/usr/local/lib/openocd, or
* Use a custom configuration file specified with the ‘-f <conf.file>’ command line
switch opeion when starting OpenOCD.
For the STR-P711, I have included bash scripts in the scripts sub-directory.
4. Running OpenOCD
Make sure the ARM7TDMI board is powered and the JTAG cable is connected
Run 'src/openocd -d' (might be required to be root) and check for any errors
reported. The '-d' option enables debugging info.
5. Telnet interface
telnet into port 4444 to get a command interface: 'telnet localhost 4444'
6. GDB
start arm-nuttx-elf-gdb
type 'file <executable.elf>' to load the executable
type 'set debug remote 1' to enable tracing of gdb protocol (if required)
type 'target remote localhost:3333' to connect to the target
The same commands from the telnet interface can now be accessed through the
'monitor' command, e.g. 'monitor help'
Windows OpenOCD will Olimex JTAG
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I have been using the Olimex ARM-USB-OCD JTAG debugger with the STR-P711
(http://www.olimex.com). The OpenOCD configuration file is here:
scripts/oocd_ft2xx.cfg. There is also a script on the scripts/ directory that
I used to start the OpenOCD daemon on my system called oocd.sh. That
script would probably require some modifications to work in another
environment:
- possibly the value of OPENOCD_PATH
- If you are working under Linux you will need to change any
occurrences of `cygpath -w blablabla` to just blablabla
If you have $PATH and other environment variables set up, then you should
be able to start the OpenOCD daemon like:
oocd.sh
To use the Windows Olimex USB JTAG (or 'oocd.sh pp' to use the Wriggler
JTAG) where it is assumed that you are executing oocd.sh from the top level
level NuttX directory.
Once the OpenOCD daemon has been started, you can connect to it via
GDB using the following GDB command:
arm-nuttx-elf-gdb
(gdb) target remote localhost:3333
And you can load the NuttX ELF file into FLASH:
(gdb) load nuttx
(There are also some files in the scripts/ directory that I used to
get OpenOCD working with a Wriggler clone... I never got that stuff
working).
MMC/SD Slot

P1.15/HTXD 13/15 CP P1.15 input
Use of SPI1 doesn't conflict with anything. WP conflicts USB; CP conflicts
with NTXD.
ENC28J60 Module
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ENC28J60 module does not come on the Olimex-STR-P711, but this describes
how I have connected it. NOTE that the ENC28J60 requires an external interrupt
(XTI) pin. The only easily accessible XTI pins are on SPI0/1 so you can't have
both SPI0 and 1 together with this configuration.
Module CON5 QFN ENC2860 Description
--------------- -------------------------------------------------------
1 J8-1 NET CS 5 ~CS Chip select input pin for SPI interface (active low)
2 2 SCK 4 SCK Clock in pin for SPI interface
3 3 MOSI 3 SI Data in pin for SPI interface
4 4 MISO 2 SO Data out pin for SPI interface
5 5 GND -- --- ---
10 J9-1 3V3 -- --- ---
9 2 WOL 1 ~WOL Unicast WOL filter
8 3 NET INT 28 ~INT Interrupt output pin (active low)
7 4 CLKOUT 27 CLKOUT Programmable clock output pin
6 5 NET RST 6 ~RESET Active-low device Reset input
For the Olimex STR-P711, the ENC28J60 module is placed on SPI0 and uses
P0.3 for CS, P0.6 for an interrupt, and P0.4 as a reset:
Module CON5 Olimex STR-P711 Connection
--------------- -------------------------------------------------------
1 J8-1 NET CS SPI0-2 P0.3 output P0.3/S0.SS/I1.SDA
2 2 SCK SPI0-5 SCLK0 P0.2/S0.SCLK/I1.SCL
3 3 MOSI SPI0-3 MOSI0 P0.0/S0.MOSI/U3.RX
4 4 MISO SPI0-4 MISO0 P0.1/S0.MISO/U3.TX
5 5 GND SPI0-1 GND
10 J9-1 3V3 SPI0-6 3.3V
9 2 WOL NC
8 3 NET INT SPI1-5 P0.6 XTI 11 P0.6/S1.SCLK
7 4 CLKOUT NC
6 5 NET RST SPI1-4 P0.4 output P0.4/S1.MISO
UART3, I2C cannot be used with SPI0. The GPIOs selected for the ENC28J60
interrupt conflict with TIM1.
NOTE: As of this writing, the ENC28J60 does not function on the board.
The board just locks up when the ENC29J60 is powered. Most likely,
in sufficient current is provided via USB to power both the board and
the ENC28J60 (And I don't have the correct wall wart to power the
the board).
Common Configuration Notes:
---------------------------
1. Each Olimex STRP711 configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
can be selected as follow:
tools/configure.sh olimex-strp711:<subdir>
Where <subdir> is one of the configuration sub-directories described in
the following paragraph.
2. These configurations use the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change a configurations 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.
3. By default, all configurations assume the NuttX Buildroot toolchain
under Linux (should work under Windows with Cygwin as well). This
is easily reconfigured:
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y
CONFIG_ARM_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y
Configuration Sub-Directories:
------------------------------
nettest:
This configuration directory may be used to enable networking using the
an Microchip ENC28J60 SPI Ethernet module (see above for connection to
STR-P711).
nsh:
Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at examples/nsh. The
Configuration enables both the serial and telnetd NSH interfaces.
