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
|
||
=====================
|
||
|
||
Toolchain Configurations
|
||
------------------------
|
||
The NuttX make system has been modified to support the following different
|
||
toolchain options.
|
||
|
||
1. The CodeSourcery GNU toolchain,
|
||
2. The Atollic Toolchain,
|
||
3. The devkitARM GNU toolchain,
|
||
4. Raisonance GNU toolchain, or
|
||
5. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below).
|
||
|
||
All testing has been conducted using the CodeSourcery toolchain for Linux.
|
||
To use the Atollic, devkitARM, Raisonance GNU, or NuttX buildroot toolchain,
|
||
you simply need to add one of the following configuration options to your
|
||
.config (or defconfig) file:
|
||
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=n : CodeSourcery under Windows
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=y : The Atollic toolchain under Windows
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_DEVKITARM=n : devkitARM under Windows
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_RAISONANCE=y : Raisonance RIDE7 under Windows
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=n : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin (default)
|
||
|
||
If you change the default toolchain, then you may also have to modify the
|
||
PATH environment variable to include the path to the toolchain binaries.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: 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:
|
||
|
||
V=1 make clean_context all 2>&1 |tee mout
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
MKDEP = $(TOPDIR)/tools/mknulldeps.sh
|
||
|
||
The Atollic "Pro" and "Lite" Toolchain
|
||
--------------------------------------
|
||
One problem that I had with the Atollic toolchains is that the provide a gcc.exe
|
||
and g++.exe in the same bin/ file as their ARM binaries. If the Atollic bin/ path
|
||
appears in your PATH variable before /usr/bin, then you will get the wrong gcc
|
||
when you try to build host executables. This will cause to strange, uninterpretable
|
||
errors build some host binaries in tools/ when you first make.
|
||
|
||
Also, the Atollic toolchains are the only toolchains that have built-in support for
|
||
the FPU in these configurations. If you plan to use the Cortex-M4 FPU, you will
|
||
need to use the Atollic toolchain for now. See the FPU section below for more
|
||
information.
|
||
|
||
The Atollic "Lite" Toolchain
|
||
----------------------------
|
||
The free, "Lite" version of the Atollic toolchain does not support C++ nor
|
||
does it support ar, nm, objdump, or objdcopy. If you use the Atollic "Lite"
|
||
toolchain, you will have to set:
|
||
|
||
CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=n
|
||
|
||
In order to compile successfully. Otherwise, you will get errors like:
|
||
|
||
"C++ Compiler only available in TrueSTUDIO Professional"
|
||
|
||
The make may then fail in some of the post link processing because of some of
|
||
the other missing tools. The Make.defs file replaces the ar and nm with
|
||
the default system x86 tool versions and these seem to work okay. Disable all
|
||
of the following to avoid using objcopy:
|
||
|
||
CONFIG_RRLOAD_BINARY=n
|
||
CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY=n
|
||
CONFIG_MOTOROLA_SREC=n
|
||
CONFIG_RAW_BINARY=n
|
||
|
||
devkitARM
|
||
---------
|
||
The devkitARM toolchain includes a version of MSYS make. Make sure that the
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
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).
|
||
|
||
Using Sourcery CodeBench from http://www.mentor.com/embedded-software/sourcery-tools/sourcery-codebench/overview
|
||
Download and install the latest version (as of this writting it was
|
||
sourceryg++-2013.05-64-arm-none-eabi)
|
||
|
||
Import the project from git.
|
||
File->import->Git-URI, then import a Exiting code as a Makefile progject
|
||
from the working directory the git clone was done to.
|
||
|
||
Select the Sourcery CodeBench for ARM EABI. N.B. You must do one command line
|
||
build, before the make will work in CodeBench.
|
||
|
||
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 EABI "buildroot" Toolchain
|
||
================================
|
||
|
||
A GNU GCC-based toolchain is assumed. The PATH environment variable 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
|
||
Bitbucket download site (https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/buildroot/downloads/).
|
||
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 nucleo-f4x1re/f401-nsh)
|
||
$ make qconfig
|
||
$ V=1 make context all 2>&1 | tee mout
|
||
|
||
Use the f411-nsh configuration if you have the Nucleo-F411RE board.
|
||
|
||
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-eabi-defconfig-4.6.3 .config
|
||
|
||
6. make oldconfig
|
||
|
||
7. make
|
||
|
||
8. Make sure 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
|
||
details PLUS some special instructions that you will need to follow if you are
|
||
building a Cortex-M3 toolchain for Cygwin under Windows.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: Unfortunately, the 4.6.3 EABI toolchain is not compatible with the
|
||
the NXFLAT tools. See the top-level TODO file (under "Binary loaders") for
|
||
more information about this problem. If you plan to use NXFLAT, please do not
|
||
use the GCC 4.6.3 EABI toolchain; instead use the GCC 4.3.3 EABI toolchain.
|
||
|
||
NXFLAT Toolchain
|
||
================
|
||
|
||
If you are *not* using the NuttX buildroot toolchain and you want to use
|
||
the NXFLAT tools, then you will still have to build a portion of the buildroot
|
||
tools -- just the NXFLAT tools. The buildroot with the NXFLAT tools can
|
||
be downloaded from the NuttX Bitbucket download site
|
||
(https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/nuttx/downloads/).
|
||
|
||
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 lpcxpresso-lpc1768/<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-nxflat .config
|
||
|
||
6. make oldconfig
|
||
|
||
7. make
|
||
|
||
8. Make sure that the PATH variable includes the path to the newly built
|
||
NXFLAT binaries.
|
||
|
||
mbed
|
||
====
|
||
|
||
The Nucleo-F401RE includes boot loader from mbed:
|
||
|
||
https://mbed.org/platforms/ST-Nucleo-F401RE/
|
||
https://mbed.org/handbook/Homepage
|
||
|
||
Using the mbed loader:
|
||
|
||
1. Connect the Nucleo-F4x1RE to the host PC using the USB connector.
|
||
2. A new file system will appear called NUCLEO; open it with Windows
|
||
Explorer (assuming that you are using Windows).
|
||
3. Drag and drop nuttx.bin into the MBED window. This will load the
|
||
nuttx.bin binary into the Nucleo-L432kc. The NUCLEO window will
|
||
close then re-open and the Nucleo-L432KC will be running the new code.
|
||
|
||
Hardware
|
||
========
|
||
|
||
Buttons
|
||
-------
|
||
B1 USER: the user button is connected to the I/O PC13 (pin 2) of the STM32
|
||
microcontroller.
|
||
|
||
LEDs
|
||
----
|
||
The Nucleo F401RE and Nucleo F411RE provide a single user LED, LD2. LD2
|
||
is the green LED connected to Arduino signal D13 corresponding to MCU I/O
|
||
PA5 (pin 21) or PB13 (pin 34) depending on the STM32target.
|
||
|
||
- When the I/O is HIGH value, the LED is on.
|
||
- When the I/O is LOW, the LED is off.
|
||
|
||
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/sam_leds.c. The LEDs are used to encode OS-related
|
||
events as follows when the red LED (PE24) is available:
|
||
|
||
SYMBOL Meaning LD2
|
||
------------------- ----------------------- -----------
|
||
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started OFF
|
||
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF
|
||
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled OFF
|
||
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created ON
|
||
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt No change
|
||
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler No change
|
||
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed No change
|
||
LED_PANIC The system has crashed Blinking
|
||
LED_IDLE MCU is is sleep mode Not used
|
||
|
||
Thus if LD2, NuttX has successfully booted and is, apparently, running
|
||
normally. If LD2 is flashing at approximately 2Hz, then a fatal error
|
||
has been detected and the system has halted.
|
||
|
||
Serial Consoles
|
||
===============
|
||
|
||
USART1

|
||
|
||
NOTE: You may need to edit the include/board.h to select different USART1
|
||
pin selections.
|
||
|
||
TTL to RS-232 converter connection:

||
Pin 33 PA10 USART1_TX some RS-232 converters
|
||
Pin 20 GND
|
||
Pin 8 U5V

CONFIG_USART1_PARITY=0
|
||
CONFIG_USART1_2STOP=0
|
||
|
||
USART2
|
||
-----
|
||
Pins and Connectors:
|
||
|
||
RXD: PA3 CN9 pin 1 (See SB13, 14, 62, 63). CN10 pin 37
|
||
PD6
|
||
TXD: PA2 CN9 pin 2(See SB13, 14, 62, 63). CN10 pin 35
|
||

|
||
|

UART2 is the default in all of these configurations.
|
||
|
||
TTL to RS-232 converter connection:
|
||
|
||
Nucleo CN9 STM32F4x1RE
|
||
----------- ------------
|
||
Pin 1 PA3 USART2_RX *Warning you make need to reverse RX/TX on
|
||
Pin 2 PA2 USART2_TX some RS-232 converters
|
||
|
||
Solder Bridges. This configuration requires:
|
||
|
||
- SB62 and SB63 Closed: PA2 and PA3 on STM32 MCU are connected to D1 and D0
|
||
(pin 7 and pin 8) on Arduino connector CN9 and ST Morpho connector CN10
|
||
as USART signals. Thus SB13 and SB14 should be OFF.
|
||
|
||
- SB13 and SB14 Open: PA2 and PA3 on STM32F103C8T6 (ST-LINK MCU) are
|
||
disconnected to PA3 and PA2 on STM32 MCU.
|
||
|
||
To configure USART2 as the console:
|
||
|
||
CONFIG_STM32_USART2=y
|
||
CONFIG_USART2_SERIALDRIVER=y
|
||
CONFIG_USART2_SERIAL_CONSOLE=y
|
||
CONFIG_USART2_RXBUFSIZE=256

CONFIG_USART2_TXBUFSIZE=256
|

CONFIG_USART2_BAUD=115200
|
||
CONFIG_USART2_BITS=8
|
||
CONFIG_USART2_PARITY=0
|
||
CONFIG_USART2_2STOP=0
|
||
|
||
Virtual COM Port
|
||
----------------
|
||
Yet another option is to use UART2 and the USB virtual COM port. This
|
||
option may be more convenient for long term development, but is painful
|
||
to use during board bring-up.
|
||
|
||
Solder Bridges. This configuration requires:
|
||
|
||
- SB62 and SB63 Open: PA2 and PA3 on STM32 MCU are disconnected to D1
|
||
and D0 (pin 7 and pin 8) on Arduino connector CN9 and ST Morpho
|
||
connector CN10.
|
||
|
||
- SB13 and SB14 Closed: PA2 and PA3 on STM32F103C8T6 (ST-LINK MCU) are
|
||
connected to PA3 and PA2 on STM32 MCU to have USART communication
|
||
between them. Thus SB61, SB62 and SB63 should be OFF.
|
||
|
||
Configuring USART2 is the same as given above.
|
||
|
||
Question: What BAUD should be configure to interface with the Virtual
|
||
COM port? 115200 8N1?
|
||
|
||
Default
|
||
-------
|
||
As shipped, SB62 and SB63 are open and SB13 and SB14 closed, so the
|
||
virtual COM port is enabled.
|
||
|
||
Configurations
|
||
==============
|
||
|
||
nsh:
|
||
---------
|
||
Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at apps/examples/nsh for the
|
||
Nucleo-F401RE board. 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 Linux. That can easily be reconfigured, of course.
|
||
|
||
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y : Builds under Linux
|
||
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery for Linux
|
||
|
||
3. Although the default console is USART2 (which would correspond to
|
||
the Virtual COM port) I have done all testing with the console
|
||
device configured for USART1 (see instruction above under "Serial
