Architecture-Specific Code
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The NuttX configuration consists of:
o Processor architecture specific files. These are the files contained
in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory discussed in this README.
o Chip/SoC specific files. Each processor architecture is embedded in
chip or System-on-a-Chip (SoC) architecture. The full chip
architecture includes the processor architecture plus chip-specific
interrupt logic, general purpose I/O (GPIO) logic, and specialized,
internal peripherals (such as UARTs, USB, etc.).
These chip-specific files are contained within chip-specific
sub-directories in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory and are selected
via the CONFIG_ARCH_name selection
o Board specific files. In order to be usable, the chip must be
contained in a board environment. The board configuration defines
additional properties of the board including such things as peripheral
LEDs, external peripherals (such as network, USB, etc.).
These board-specific configuration files can be found in the
boards/<arch>/<chip>/<board> sub-directories.
This README will address the processor architecture specific files that
are contained in the arch/<arch-name>/ directory. The file
include/nuttx/arch.h identifies all of the APIs that must be provided by
this architecture specific logic. (It also includes
arch/<arch-name>/arch.h as described below).
Directory Structure
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The arch/ directory contains architecture-specific logic. The complete
board port is defined by the architecture-specific code in this
directory plus the board-specific configurations in the boards/
directory. Each architecture must provide a subdirectory <arch-name>
under arch/ with the following characteristics:
<arch-name>/
|-- include/
| |--<chip-name>/
| | `-- (chip-specific header files)
| |--<other-chips>/
| |-- arch.h
| |-- irq.h
| `-- types.h
`-- src/
|--<chip-name>/
| `-- (chip-specific source files)
|--<other-chips>/
|-- Makefile
`-- (architecture-specific source files)
Summary of Files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
include/<chip-name>/
This sub-directory contains chip-specific header files.
include/arch.h
This is a hook for any architecture specific definitions that may be
needed by the system. It is included by include/nuttx/arch.h
include/types.h
This provides architecture/toolchain-specific definitions for standard
types. This file should typedef:
_int8_t, _uint8_t, _int16_t, _uint16_t, _int32_t, _uint32_t
and if the architecture supports 64-bit integers:
_int24_t, _uint24_t, _int64_t, _uint64_t
NOTE that these type names have a leading underscore character. This
file will be included (indirectly) by include/stdint.h and typedef'ed
to the final name without the underscore character. This roundabout
way of doings things allows the stdint.h to be removed from the
include/ directory in the event that the user prefers to use the
definitions provided by their toolchain header files.
irqstate_t
Must be defined to the size required to hold the interrupt
enable/disable state.
This file will be included by include/sys/types.h and be made
available to all files.
include/irq.h
This file needs to define some architecture-specific functions
(usually inline if the compiler supports inlining) and structures.
These include:
- struct xcptcontext. This structure represents the saved context of
a thread.
- irqstate_t up_irq_save(void) -- Used to disable all interrupts.
- void up_irq_restore(irqstate_t flags) -- Used to restore interrupt
enables to the same state as before up_irq_save was called.
NOTE: These interfaces are not available to application code but can
only be used within the operating system code. And, in general, these
functions should *never* be called directly, not unless you know
absolutely well what you are doing. Rather you should typically use
the wrapper functions enter_critical_section() and
leave_critical_section() as prototyped in include/nuttx/irq.h.
This file must also define NR_IRQS, the total number of IRQs supported
by the board.
src/<chip-name>/
This sub-directory contains chip-specific source files.
src/Makefile
This makefile will be executed to build the targets src/libup.a and
src/up_head.o. The up_head.o file holds the entry point into the
system (power-on reset entry point, for example). It will be used in
the final link with libup.a and other system archives to generate the
final executable.
Supported Architectures
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
NOTE: nuttx/Documentation/NuttX.html for current information about the
state of these MCU ports.
arch/sim - Linux/Cygwin simulation
A user-mode port of NuttX to the x86 Linux platform is available.
The purpose of this port is primarily to support OS feature
development. This port does not support interrupts or a real timer
(and hence no round robin scheduler). Otherwise, it is complete.
arch/arm - ARM-based micro-controllers
