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. Testing was performed using the Cygwin
environment.
GNU Toolchain Options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The NuttX make system has been modified to support the following different
toolchain options.
1. The CodeSourcery GNU toolchain,
2. The devkitARM GNU toolchain, ok
4. The NuttX buildroot Toolchain (see below).
All testing has been conducted using the NuttX buildroot toolchain. However,
the make system is setup to default to use the devkitARM toolchain. To use
the CodeSourcery, devkitARM, Atollic, or AtmelStudio GNU toolchain, you simply
need to add one of the following configuration options to your .config (or
defconfig) file:
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYW=y : CodeSourcery under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_CODESOURCERYL=y : CodeSourcery under Linux
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_ATOLLIC=y : Atollic toolchain for Windos
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_DEVKITARM=y : devkitARM under Windows
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : NuttX buildroot under Linux or Cygwin (default)
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIL=y : Generic GCC ARM EABI toolchain for Linux
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIW=y : Generic GCC ARM EABI toolchain for Windows
If you are not using CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT, then you may also have to modify
the PATH in the setenv.h file if your make cannot find the tools.
NOTE about Windows native toolchains
------------------------------------
The CodeSourcery (for Windows), Atollic, and devkitARM toolchains are
Windows native toolchains. The CodeSourcery (for Linux), NuttX buildroot,
and, perhaps, the generic GCC toolchains are Cygwin and/or Linux native
toolchains. 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 all
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
NOTE 1: The CodeSourcery toolchain (2009q1) does 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.
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 (There is a simple RIDE project
in the RIDE subdirectory).
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).
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/sam34,
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/sam34/sam_vectors.S. You may need 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 files */setenv.sh 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
SourceForge download site (https://sourceforge.net/projects/nuttx/files/buildroot/).
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 sam3u-ek/<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-eabi-defconfig-4.6.3 .config
6. make oldconfig
7. make
8. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so 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 toochain; instead use the GCC 4.3.3 OABI toolchain.
See instructions below.
NuttX OABI "buildroot" Toolchain
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The older, OABI buildroot toolchain is also available. To use the OABI
toolchain:
1. When building the buildroot toolchain, either (1) modify the cortexm3-eabi-defconfig-4.6.3
configuration to use EABI (using 'make menuconfig'), or (2) use an exising OABI
configuration such as cortexm3-defconfig-4.3.3
2. Modify the Make.defs file to use the OABI conventions:
+CROSSDEV = arm-nuttx-elf-
+ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mtune=cortex-m3 -march=armv7-m -mfloat-abi=soft
+NXFLATLDFLAGS2 = $(NXFLATLDFLAGS1) -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libnxflat/gnu-nxflat-gotoff.ld -no-check-sections
-CROSSDEV = arm-nuttx-eabi-
-ARCHCPUFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-m3 -mthumb -mfloat-abi=soft
-NXFLATLDFLAGS2 = $(NXFLATLDFLAGS1) -T$(TOPDIR)/binfmt/libnxflat/gnu-nxflat-pcrel.ld -no-check-sections
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 SourceForge download site
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/nuttx/files/).
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. Edit setenv.h, if necessary, so that the PATH variable includes
the path to the newly builtNXFLAT binaries.
AtmelStudio6.1
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You can use AtmelStudio6.1 to load and debug code.
- To load code:
Tools -> Device Programming
Configure the debugger and chip and you are in business.
- To Debug Code:
File -> Open -> Open Object File for Debugging
Select the project name, the full path to the NuttX object (called
just nuttx with no extension), and chip. Take the time to resolve
all of the source file linkages or else you will not have source
level debug!
LEDs
^^^^
The SAM3U-EK board has four LEDs labeled LD1, LD2, LD3 and LD4 on the
the board. Usage of these LEDs is defined in include/board.h and src/up_leds.c.
They are encoded as follows:
SYMBOL Meaning LED0* LED1 LED2
------------------- ----------------------- ------- ------- -------
LED_STARTED NuttX has been started OFF OFF OFF
LED_HEAPALLOCATE Heap has been allocated OFF OFF ON
LED_IRQSENABLED Interrupts enabled OFF ON OFF
LED_STACKCREATED Idle stack created OFF ON ON
LED_INIRQ In an interrupt** N/C FLASH N/C
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler*** N/C N/C FLASH
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed FLASH N/C N/C
LED_PANIC The system has crashed FLASH N/C N/C
* If LED1 and LED2 are statically on, then NuttX probably failed to boot
and these LEDs will give you some indication of where the failure was
** The normal state is LED0=OFF, LED2=ON and LED1 faintly glowing. This faint
glow is because of timer interupts that result in the LED being illuminated
on a small proportion of the time.
*** LED2 may also flicker normally if signals are processed.
SAM3U-EK-specific Configuration Options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
CONFIG_ARCH - Identifies the arch/ subdirectory. This should
be set to:
CONFIG_ARCH=arm
CONFIG_ARCH_family - For use in C code:
CONFIG_ARCH_ARM=y
CONFIG_ARCH_architecture - For use in C code:
CONFIG_ARCH_CORTEXM3=y
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP - Identifies the arch/*/chip subdirectory
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP="sam34"
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_name - For use in C code to identify the exact
chip:
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_SAM34
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_SAM3U
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_ATSAM3U4
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD - Identifies the configs subdirectory and
hence, the board that supports the particular chip or SoC.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD=sam3u-ek (for the SAM3U-EK development board)
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_name - For use in C code
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_SAM3UEK=y
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC - Must be calibrated for correct operation
of delay loops
CONFIG_ENDIAN_BIG - define if big endian (default is little
endian)
CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE - Describes the installed DRAM (SRAM in this case):
CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE=0x0000c000 (48Kb)
CONFIG_DRAM_START - The start address of installed DRAM
CONFIG_DRAM_START=0x20000000
CONFIG_ARCH_IRQPRIO - The SAM3UF103Z supports interrupt prioritization
CONFIG_ARCH_IRQPRIO=y
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to boards that
have LEDs
CONFIG_ARCH_INTERRUPTSTACK - This architecture supports an interrupt
stack. If defined, this symbol is the size of the interrupt
stack in bytes. If not defined, the user task stacks will be
used during interrupt handling.
CONFIG_ARCH_STACKDUMP - Do stack dumps after assertions
CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS - Use LEDs to show state. Unique to board architecture.
CONFIG_ARCH_CALIBRATION - Enables some build in instrumentation that
cause a 100 second delay during boot-up. This 100 second delay
serves no purpose other than it allows you to calibratre
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC. You simply use a stop watch to measure
the 100 second delay then adjust CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC until
the delay actually is 100 seconds.

"Portrait" orientation. Default: The display is rotated to
support a 320x240 "Landscape" orientation.
Configurations
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Information Common to All Configurations
----------------------------------------
Each SAM3U-EK configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
can be selected as follow:
cd tools
./configure.sh sam3u-ek/<subdir>
cd -
. ./setenv.sh
Before sourcing the setenv.sh file above, you should examine it and perform
edits as necessary so that BUILDROOT_BIN is the correct path to the directory
than holds your toolchain binaries.
And then build NuttX by simply typing the following. At the conclusion of
the make, the nuttx binary will reside in an ELF file called, simply, nuttx.
make
The <subdir> that is provided above as an argument to the tools/configure.sh
must be is one of the following.
NOTES:
1. These configurations use the mconf-based configuration tool. To
change any of these configurations using that tool, you should:
a. Build and install the kconfig-mconf tool. See nuttx/README.txt
and misc/tools/
b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
reconfiguration process.
2. Unless stated otherwise, all configurations generate console
output on UART0 (J3).
3. Unless otherwise stated, the configurations are setup for
Linux (or any other POSIX environment like Cygwin under Windows):
Build Setup:
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y : Linux or other POSIX environment
4. All of these configurations use the older, OABI, buildroot toolchain
(unless stated otherwise in the description of the configuration). That
toolchain selection can easily be reconfigured using 'make menuconfig'.
Here are the relevant current settings:
Build Setup:
CONFIG_HOST_LINUX=y : Linux or other pure POSIX invironment
: (including Cygwin)
System Type -> Toolchain:
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT=y : Buildroot toolchain
CONFIG_ARMV7M_OABI_TOOLCHAIN=y : Older, OABI toolchain
If you want to use the Atmel GCC toolchain, for example, here are the
steps to do so:
Build Setup:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Windows
CONFIG_HOST_CYGWIN=y : Using Cygwin or other POSIX environment
System Type -> Toolchain:
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABIW=y : General GCC EABI toolchain under windows
Library Routines ->
CONFIG_CXX_NEWLONG=n : size_t is an unsigned int, not long
This re-configuration should be done before making NuttX or else the
subsequent 'make' will fail. If you have already attempted building
NuttX then you will have to 1) 'make distclean' to remove the old
configuration, 2) 'cd tools; ./configure.sh sam3u-ek/ksnh' to start
with a fresh configuration, and 3) perform the configuration changes
above.
Also, make sure that your PATH variable has the new path to your
Atmel tools. Try 'which arm-none-eabi-gcc' to make sure that you
are selecting the right tool. setenv.sh is available for you to
use to set or PATH variable. The path in the that file may not,
however, be correct for your installation.
See also the "NOTE about Windows native toolchains" in the section call
"GNU Toolchain Options" above.
Configuration sub-directories
-----------------------------
knsh:
This is identical to the nsh configuration below except that NuttX
is built as a kernel-mode, monolithic module and the user applications
are built separately. It is recommends to use a special make command;
not just 'make' but make with the following two arguments:
make pass1 pass2
In the normal case (just 'make'), make will attempt to build both user-
and kernel-mode blobs more or less interleaved. This actual works!
However, for me it is very confusing so I prefer the above make command:
Make the user-space binaries first (pass1), then make the the kernel-space
binaries (pass2)
NOTES:
1. At the end of the build, there will be several files in the top-level
NuttX build directory:
PASS1:
nuttx_user.elf - The pass1 user-space ELF file
nuttx_user.hex - The pass1 Intel HEX format file (selected in defconfig)
User.map - Symbols in the user-space ELF file
PASS2:
nuttx - The pass2 kernel-space ELF file
nuttx.hex - The pass2 Intel HEX file (selected in defconfig)
System.map - Symbols in the kernel-space ELF file
The J-Link programmer will except files in .hex, .mot, .srec, and .bin
formats.
2. Combining .hex files. If you plan to use the .hex files with your
debugger or FLASH utility, then you may need to combine the two hex
files into a single .hex file. Here is how you can do that.
a. The 'tail' of the nuttx.hex file should look something like this
(with my comments added):
$ tail nuttx.hex
# 00, data records
...
:10 9DC0 00 01000000000800006400020100001F0004
:10 9DD0 00 3B005A0078009700B500D400F300110151
:08 9DE0 00 30014E016D0100008D
# 05, Start Linear Address Record
:04 0000 05 0800 0419 D2
# 01, End Of File record
:00 0000 01 FF
Use an editor such as vi to remove the 05 and 01 records.
b. The 'head' of the nuttx_user.hex file should look something like
this (again with my comments added):
$ head nuttx_user.hex
# 04, Extended Linear Address Record
:02 0000 04 0801 F1
# 00, data records
:10 8000 00 BD89 01084C800108C8110208D01102087E
:10 8010 00 0010 00201C1000201C1000203C16002026
:10 8020 00 4D80 01085D80010869800108ED83010829
...
Nothing needs to be done here. The nuttx_user.hex file should
be fine.
c. Combine the edited nuttx.hex and un-edited nuttx_user.hex
file to produce a single combined hex file:
$ cat nuttx.hex nuttx_user.hex >combined.hex
Then use the combined.hex file with the to write the FLASH image.
If you do this a lot, you will probably want to invest a little time
to develop a tool to automate these steps.
nsh:
Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at examples/nsh. The
Configuration enables both the serial and telnetd NSH interfaces.
NOTES:
1. NSH built-in applications are supported. However, there are
no built-in applications built with the default configuration.
Binary Formats:
CONFIG_BUILTIN=y : Enable support for built-in programs
Applicaton Configuration:
CONFIG_NSH_BUILTIN_APPS=y : Enable starting apps from NSH command line
2. This configuration has been used for verifying the touchscreen on
on the SAM3U-EK LCD. With these modifications, you can include the
touchscreen test program at apps/examples/touchscreen as an NSH built-in
application. You can enable the touchscreen and test by modifying the
default configuration in the following ways:
Device Drivers
CONFIG_SPI=y : Enable SPI support
CONFIG_SPI_EXCHANGE=y : The exchange() method is supported
CONFIG_SPI_OWNBUS=y : Smaller code if this is the only SPI device
CONFIG_INPUT=y : Enable support for input devices
CONFIG_INPUT_ADS7843E=y : Enable support for the XPT2048
CONFIG_ADS7843E_SPIDEV=2 : Use SPI CS 2 for communication
CONFIG_ADS7843E_SPIMODE=0 : Use SPI mode 0
CONFIG_ADS7843E_FREQUENCY=1000000 : SPI BAUD 1MHz
CONFIG_ADS7843E_SWAPXY=y : If landscpe orientation
CONFIG_ADS7843E_THRESHX=51 : These will probably need to be tuned
CONFIG_ADS7843E_THRESHY=39
System Type -> Peripherals:
CONFIG_SAM34_SPI0=y : Enable support for SPI
System Type:
CONFIG_GPIO_IRQ=y : GPIO interrupt support
CONFIG_GPIOA_IRQ=y : Enable GPIO interrupts from port A
RTOS Features:
CONFIG_DISABLE_SIGNALS=n : Signals are required
Library Support:
CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE=y : Work queue support required
Applicaton Configuration:
CONFIG_EXAMPLES_TOUCHSCREEN=y : Enable the touchscreen built-int test
Defaults should be okay for related touchscreen settings. Touchscreen
debug output on UART0 can be enabled with:
Build Setup:
CONFIG_DEBUG=y : Enable debug features
CONFIG_DEBUG_VERBOSE=y : Enable verbose debug output
CONFIG_DEBUG_INPUT=y : Enable debug output from input devices
STATUS:
2013-6-28: The touchscreen is functional.
2013-6-29: Hmmm... but there appear to be conditions when the
touchscreen driver locks up. Looks like some issue with
managing the interrupts.
2013-6-30: Those lock-ups appear to be due to poorly placed
debug output statements. If you do not enable debug output,
the touchscreen is rock-solid.
nx:
Configures to use examples/nx using the HX834x LCD hardware on
the SAM3U-EK development board.
nxwm:
This is a special configuration setup for the NxWM window manager
UnitTest. It includes support for both the HX834x LCD and the
ADS7843E touchscreen controller on board the SAM3U-EK board.
The NxWM window manager is a tiny window manager tailor for use
with smaller LCDs. It supports a toolchain, a start window, and
multiple application windows. However, to make the best use of
the visible LCD space, only one application window is visiable at
at time.
The NxWM window manager can be found here:
nuttx-git/NxWidgets/nxwm
The NxWM unit test can be found at:
nuttx-git/NxWidgets/UnitTests/nxwm
Documentation for installing the NxWM unit test can be found here:
nuttx-git/NxWidgets/UnitTests/README.txt
Here is the quick summary of the build steps. These steps assume that
you have the entire NuttX GIT in some directory ~/nuttx-git. You may
have these components installed elsewhere. In that case, you will need
to adjust all of the paths in the following accordingly:
1. Intall the nxwm configuration
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/nuttx/tools
$ ./configure.sh sam3u-ek/nxwm
2. Make the build context (only)
$ cd ..
$ . ./setenv.sh
$ make context
...
NOTE: the use of the setenv.sh file is optional. All that it will
do is to adjust your PATH variable so that the build system can find
your tools. If you use it, you will most likely need to modify the
script so that it has the correct path to your tool binaries
directory.
3. Install the nxwm unit test
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets
$ tools/install.sh ~/nuttx-git/apps nxwm
Creating symbolic link
- To ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets/UnitTests/nxwm
- At ~/nuttx-git/apps/external
4. Build the NxWidgets library
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets/libnxwidgets
$ make TOPDIR=~/nuttx-git/nuttx
...
5. Build the NxWM library
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/NxWidgets/nxwm
$ make TOPDIR=~/nuttx-git/nuttx
...
6. Built NuttX with the installed unit test as the application
$ cd ~/nuttx-git/nuttx
$ make
STATUS:
1. 2013-6-28: Created the configuration but have not yet done
anything with it.
2. 2013-6-29: Various changes to get a clean build of this
configuration. Still untested.
3. 20113-6-30: I cannot load this program using AtmelStudio6.1.
The total size with DEBUG on is 138.9 KB. I have verified
that the first 128KB may have been written correctly, but then
the code above 128KB wraps and overwrites the code at the
beginning of FLASH, trashing the FLASH images.
Bottom line: Still untested.
ostest:
This configuration directory, performs a simple OS test using
examples/ostest. By default, this project assumes that you are
using the DFU bootloader.
