Remove support for the Codesourcery, Atollic, DevKitArm, Raisonance, and CodeRed toolchains. Not only are these tools old and no longer used but they are all equivalent to standard ARM EABI toolchains. Retaining specific support has no effect (they are still supported, but now just as generic EABI toolchains).

Development Environment
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Either Linux or Cygwin under 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
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
As of this writing, all testing has been performed using the NuttX buildroot
|
|
toolchain described below. I have also verified the build using the
|
|
CodeSourcery GCC toolchain for windows. Most any contemporary EABI GCC
|
|
toolchain should work will a little tinkering.
|
|
|
|
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 Cortex-M0 GCC toolchain (if
|
|
different from the default in your PATH variable).
|
|
|
|
If you have no Cortex-M0 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.
|
|
|
|
tools/configure.sh freedom-kl26z:<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 boards/cortexm0-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 boards/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-M0 toolchain for Cygwin under Windows.

|
|
LEDs
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
The Freedom KL26Z has a single RGB LED driven by the KL26Z as follows:
|
|
|
|
------------- --------
|
|
RGB LED KL26Z128
|
|
------------- --------
|
|
Red Cathode PTE29
|
|
Green Cathode PTE31
|
|
Blue Cathode PTD5
|
|
|
|
NOTE: PTD5 is also connected to the I/O header on J2 pin 12 (also known as D13).
|
|
|
|
If CONFIG_ARCH_LEDs is defined, then NuttX will control the LED on board the
|
|
Freedom KL26Z. The following definitions describe how NuttX controls the LEDs:
|
|
|
|
SYMBOL Meaning LED state
|
|
Initially all LED is OFF
|
|
------------------- ----------------------- --------------------------
|
|
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started R=OFF G=OFF B=OFF
|
|
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated (no change)
|
|
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled (no change)
|
|
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created R=OFF G=OFF B=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 R=FLASHING G=OFF B=OFF
|
|
LED_IDLE K26Z1XX is in sleep mode (Optional, not used)
|
|
|
|
Serial Console
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
As with most NuttX configurations, the Freedom KL26Z configurations
|
|
depend on having a serial console to interact with the software. The
|
|
Freedom KL26Z, however, has no on-board RS-232 drivers so will be
|
|
necessary to connect the Freedom KL26Z UART pins to an external
|
|
RS-232 driver board or TTL-to-Serial USB adaptor.
|
|
|
|
By default UART0 is used as the serial console on this boards. The UART0
|
|
is configured to work with the OpenSDA USB CDC/ACM port:
|
|
|
|
------ ------------------------------- -----------------------------
|
|
PIN PIN FUNCTIONS BOARD SIGNALS
|
|
------ ------------------------------- -----------------------------
|
|
Pin 27 PTA1/TSI0_CH2/UART0_RX/FTM2_CH0 UART1_RX_TGTMCU and D0 (PTA1)
|
|
Pin 28 PTA2/TSI0_CH3/UART0_TX/FTM2_CH1 UART1_TX_TGTMCU and D1 (PTA2)
|
|
|
|
But the UART0 Tx/Rx signals are also available on J1:
|
|
|
|
---------------- ---------
|
|
UART0 SIGNAL J1 pin
|
|
---------------- ---------
|
|
UART0_RX (PTA1) J1, pin 2
|
|
UART0_TX (PTA2) J1, pin 4
|
|
|
|
Ground is available on J2 pin 14. 3.3V is available on J3 and J4.
|
|
|
|
Freedom KL26Z-specific Configuration Options
|
|
============================================

Configurations
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Each FREEDOM-KL26Z configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
|
|
can be selected as follow:
|
|
|
|
tools/configure.sh freedom-kl26z:<subdir>
|
|
|
|
If this is a Windows native build, then configure.bat should be used
|
|
instead of configure.sh:
|
|
|
|
configure.bat freedom-kl26z\<subdir>
|
|
|
|
Where <subdir> is one of the following:
|
|
|
|
nsh:
|
|
---
|
|
Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at apps/examples/nsh. The
|
|
Configuration enables the serial interface on UART0. Support for
|
|
builtin applications is disabled.
|
|
|
|
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 ARM EABI 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_GNU_EABIW=y : GNU EABI toolchain for Windows
|
|
|
|
3. Serial Console. A serial console is necessary to interrupt with
|
|
NSH. The serial console is configured on UART0 which is available
|
|
on J1:
|
|
|
|
---------------- ---------
|
|
UART0 SIGNAL J1 pin
|
|
---------------- ---------
|
|
UART0_RX (PTA1) J1, pin 2
|
|
UART0_TX (PTA2) J1, pin 4
|
|
|
|
Ground is available on J2 pin 14. 3.3V is available on J3 and J4.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to configure NSH to use a USB serial console instead
|
|
of an RS-232 serial console. However, that configuration has not
|
|
been impelmented as of this writing.
|
|
|
|
4. Memory Usage. The size command gives us the static memory usage.
|
|
This is what I get:
|
|
|
|
$ size nuttx
|
|
text data bss dec hex filename
|
|
35037 106 1092 36235 8d8b nuttx
|
|
|
|
And we can get the runtime memory usage from the NSH free command:
|
|
|
|
NuttShell (NSH) NuttX-6.25
|
|
nsh> free
|
|
total used free largest
|
|
Mem: 14160 3944 10216 10216
|
|
nsh>
|
|
|
|
Summary:
|
|
|
|
- This slightly tuned NSH example uses 34.2KB of FLASH leaving 93.8KB
|
|
of FLASH (72%) free from additional application development.
|
|
|
|
I did not do all of the arithmetic, but it appears to me that of this
|
|
34+KB of FLASH usage, probably 20-30% of the FLASH is used by libgcc!
|
|
libgcc has gotten very fat!
|
|
|
|
- Static SRAM usage is about 1.2KB (<4%).
|
|
|
|
- At run time, 10.0KB of SRAM (62%) is still available for additional
|
|
applications. Most of the memory used at runtime is allocated I/O
|
|
buffers and the stack for the NSH main thread (1.5KB).
|
|
|
|
There is probably enough free memory to support 3 or 4 application
|
|
threads in addition to NSH.
|
|
|
|
5. This configurations has support for NSH built-in applications. However,
|
|
in the default configuration no built-in applications are enabled.
