STATUS
======
2015-07-19: The basic NSH configuration is functional using a serial
console on USART1 (Virtual COM, i.e. ttyACM0). Very few other drivers
are in place yet.
2015-07-20: STM32 F7 Ethernet appears to be functional, but has had
only light testing.
Development Environment
=======================
The Development environments for the STM32F746G-DISCO board are identical
to the environments for other STM32F boards. For full details on the
environment options and setup, see the README.txt file in the
boards/arm/stm32f7/stm32f746g-disco directory.
LEDs and Buttons
================
LEDs
----
The STM32F746G-DISCO board has numerous LEDs but only one, LD1 located
near the reset button, that can be controlled by software (LD2 is a power
indicator, LD3-6 indicate USB status, LD7 is controlled by the ST-Link).
LD1 is controlled by PI1 which is also the SPI2_SCK at the Arduino
interface. One end of LD1 is grounded so a high output on PI1 will
illuminate the LED.
This LED is 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/stm32_leds.c. The LEDs are used to encode OS-related events as
follows:
SYMBOL Meaning LD1
------------------- ----------------------- ------
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 N/C
LED_SIGNAL In a signal handler N/C
LED_ASSERTION An assertion failed N/C
LED_PANIC The system has crashed FLASH
Thus is LD1 is statically on, NuttX has successfully booted and is,
apparently, running normally. If LD1 is flashing at approximately
2Hz, then a fatal error has been detected and the system has halted.
Buttons
-------
Pushbutton B1, labelled "User", is connected to GPIO PI11. A high
value will be sensed when the button is depressed.
Serial Console
==============
The STM32F469G-DISCO uses USART1 connected to "Virtual COM", so when you
plug it on your computer it will be detected as a USB port (i.e. ttyACM0):
-------- ---------------
STM32F7
V.COM FUNCTION GPIO
----- --------- -----
RXD USART1_RX PB7
TXD USART1_TX PA9
------ --------- -----
All you need to do after flashing NuttX on this board is use a serial
console tool (minicom, picocom, screen, hyperterminal, teraterm, putty,
etc ) configured to 115200 8n1.
Porting STM32 F4 Drivers
========================
The STM32F746 is very similar to the STM32 F429 and many of the drivers
in the stm32/ directory could be ported here: ADC, BBSRAM, CAN, DAC,
DMA2D, FLASH, I2C, IWDG, LSE, LSI, LTDC, OTGFS, OTGHS, PM, Quadrature
Encoder, RNG, RTCC, SDMMC (was SDIO), Timer/counters, and WWDG.
Many of these drivers would be ported very simply; many ports would just
be a matter of copying files and some seach-and-replacement. Like:
1. Compare the two register definitions files; make sure that the STM32
F4 peripheral is identical (or nearly identical) to the F7
peripheral. If so then,
2. Copy the register definition file from the stm32/chip directory to
the stm32f7/chip directory, making name changes as appropriate and
updating the driver for any minor register differences.
3. Copy the corresponding C file (and possibly a matching .h file) from
the stm32/ directory to the stm32f7/ directory again with naming
changes and changes for any register differences.
4. Update the Make.defs file to include the new C file in the build.
For other files, particularly those that use DMA, the port will be
significantly more complex. That is because the STM32F7 has a D-Cache
and, as a result, we need to exercise much more care to maintain cache
coherency. There is a Wiki page discussing the issues of porting
drivers from the stm32/ to the stm32f7/ directories here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX/Porting+Drivers+to+the+STM32+F7
FPU
===
FPU Configuration Options
-------------------------
There are two version of the FPU support built into the STM32 port.
1. Non-Lazy Floating Point Register Save
In this configuration floating point register save and restore is
implemented on interrupt entry and return, respectively. In this
case, you may use floating point operations for interrupt handling
logic if necessary. This FPU behavior logic is enabled by default
with:
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
2. Lazy Floating Point Register Save.
An alternative mplementation only saves and restores FPU registers only
on context switches. This means: (1) floating point registers are not
stored on each context switch and, hence, possibly better interrupt
performance. But, (2) since floating point registers are not saved,
you cannot use floating point operations within interrupt handlers.
This logic can be enabled by simply adding the following to your .config
file:
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=y
STM32F746G-DISCO-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_CORTEXM7=y
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP - Identifies the arch/*/chip subdirectory
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP=stm32f7
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_name - For use in C code to identify the exact
chip:
CONFIG_ARCH_CHIP_STM32F746=y
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG - Enables special STM32 clock
configuration features.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32_CUSTOM_CLOCKCONFIG=n
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD - Identifies the boards/ subdirectory and,
hence, the board that supports the particular chip or SoC.
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD=stm32f746g-disco (for the STM32F746G-DISCO development board)
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_name - For use in C code
CONFIG_ARCH_BOARD_STM32F746G_DISCO=y
CONFIG_ARCH_LOOPSPERMSEC - Must be calibrated for correct operation
of delay loops
CONFIG_ENDIAN_BIG - should not be defined.
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE - Describes the installed DRAM (SRAM in this case):
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=0x00010000 (64Kb)
CONFIG_RAM_START - The start address of installed SRAM (SRAM1)
CONFIG_RAM_START=0x20010000
CONFIG_RAM_SIZE=245760
This configurations use only SRAM1 for data storage. The heap includes
the remainder of SRAM1. If CONFIG_MM_REGIONS=2, then SRAM2 will be
included in the heap.
DTCM SRAM is never included in the heap because it cannot be used for
DMA. A DTCM allocator is available, however, so that DTCM can be
managed with dtcm_malloc(), dtcm_free(), etc.
In order to use FMC SRAM, the following additional things need to be
present in the NuttX configuration file:
CONFIG_STM32F7_FMC_SRAM - Indicates that SRAM is available via the
FMC (as opposed to an LCD or FLASH).
CONFIG_HEAP2_BASE - The base address of the SRAM in the FMC address space (hex)
CONFIG_HEAP2_SIZE - The size of the SRAM in the FMC address space (decimal)
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU - The STM32F746G-DISCO supports a floating point unit (FPU)
CONFIG_ARCH_FPU=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.
Individual subsystems can be enabled:

Timer devices may be used for different purposes. One special purpose is
to generate modulated outputs for such things as motor control. If CONFIG_STM32F7_TIMn
is defined (as above) then the following may also be defined to indicate that
the timer is intended to be used for pulsed output modulation, ADC conversion,
or DAC conversion. Note that ADC/DAC require two definition: Not only do you have
to assign the timer (n) for used by the ADC or DAC, but then you also have to
configure which ADC or DAC (m) it is assigned to.
CONFIG_STM32F7_TIMn_PWM Reserve timer n for use by PWM, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32F7_TIMn_ADC Reserve timer n for use by ADC, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32F7_TIMn_ADCm Reserve timer n to trigger ADCm, n=1,..,14, m=1,..,3
CONFIG_STM32F7_TIMn_DAC Reserve timer n for use by DAC, n=1,..,14
CONFIG_STM32F7_TIMn_DACm Reserve timer n to trigger DACm, n=1,..,14, m=1,..,2
For each timer that is enabled for PWM usage, we need the following additional
configuration settings:
CONFIG_STM32F7_TIMx_CHANNEL - Specifies the timer output channel {1,..,4}
NOTE: The STM32 timers are each capable of generating different signals on
each of the four channels with different duty cycles. That capability is
not supported by this driver: Only one output channel per timer.
STM32F746G-DISCO specific device driver settings

Configurations
==============
Common Configuration Information
--------------------------------
Each STM32F746G-DISCO configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and
can be selected as follow:
tools/configure.sh stm32f746g-disco:<subdir>
Where <subdir> is one of the sub-directories listed below.
NOTES:
1. These configurations use 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, these configurations use the USART1 for the serial
console. Pins are configured to that RX/TX are available at
pins D0 and D1 of the Arduion connectors. This should be compatible
with most RS-232 shields.
3. All of these configurations are set up to build under Windows using the
"GNU Tools for ARM Embedded Processors" that is maintained by ARM
(unless stated otherwise in the description of the configuration).
https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm
As of this writing (2015-03-11), full support is difficult to find
for the Cortex-M7, but is supported by at least this release of
the ARM GNU tools:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/209776344/release.txt
That toolchain selection can easily be reconfigured using
'make menuconfig'. Here are the relevant current settings:
Build Setup:
CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y : Window environment
CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y : Cywin under Windows
System Type -> Toolchain:
CONFIG_ARMV7M_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_EABI=y : GNU ARM EABI toolchain
NOTE: As of this writing, there are issues with using this tool at
the -Os level of optimization. This has not been proven to be a
compiler issue (as least not one that might not be fixed with a
well placed volatile qualifier). However, in any event, it is
recommend that you use not more that -O2 optimization.
Configuration Directories
-------------------------
nsh
---
Configures the NuttShell (NSH) located at apps/examples/nsh. The
Configuration enables the serial interfaces on USART1. Support for
built-in applications is enabled, but in the base configuration no
built-in applications are selected.
netnsh
------
This configuration is similar to the nsh but a lot more hardware
peripherals are enabled, in particular Ethernet, as well as networking
support. It is similar to the stm32f769i-disco/netnsh
configuration. This configuration uses USART1 for the serial console.
USART1 is connected to the ST-link virtual com inside board.h to remove
the need of a extra serial connection to use this board.
lgvl
----
STM32F746G-DISCO LittlevGL demo example.
The LTDC is initialized during boot up.
This configuration uses USART1 for the serial console.
USART1 is connected to the ST-link virtual com inside board.h to remove
the need of a extra serial connection to use this board.
From the nsh command line execute the lvgldemo example:
nsh> lvgldemo
The test will execute the calibration process and then run the
LittlevGL demo project.
