| NuttX-6.20 |
| ---------- |
| |
| The 87th release of NuttX, Version 6.20, was made on July 12, 2012, |
| and is available for download from the SourceForge website. Note |
| that release consists of two tarballs: nuttx-6.20.tar.gz and |
| apps-6.20.tar.gz. Both may be needed (see the top-level nuttx/README.txt |
| file for build information). |
| |
| This release corresponds with SVN release number: r4937 |
| |
| Additional new features and extended functionality: |
| |
| * Power Management: An evolving power management example is being |
| created by Diego Sanchez. This effort currently involves on the |
| STM32 F1 but clearly demonstrates the NuttX power management |
| system which will automatically drive the system to lower power |
| usage states due to lack of use. |
| |
| * Drivers: Added a driver for the SST 25 SPI-based FLASH parts. |
| |
| * PIC32: Added support for the PIC32MX1 and PIC32MX2 families. |
| Added support for the microchipOpen and Pinguino toolchains. |
| |
| * NXP LPC43XX: Added support for the entire LPC43xx family |
| |
| * PIC32 boards: Added support for the DTX1-4000L "Mirtoo" module |
| from http://www.dimitech.com/ (PIC32MX2). |
| |
| * NXP LPC43XX Boards: Added support for NGX LPC4330-Xplorer board. |
| |
| * NXP LPC17XX Boards: Added support for Micromint Lincoln60 board |
| (LPC1769). |
| |
| * LM3S Boards: Add a configuration to support the TI/Stellaris |
| EKK-LM3S3B96 development board. Contributed by Jose Pablo Rojas V. |
| |
| * Library: NuttX now supports platform-specific stdarg.h header |
| files. |
| |
| Work in progress. This release includes some partially completed |
| work that is still not ready for prime time. |
| |
| * Automated Configuration. Automated configuration based on the |
| kconfig-frontends tool is being incorporated into the build |
| system. The configuration is still not complete enough for |
| general use in this release. |
| |
| * STM32 Drivers. Added files that will (eventually) hold an STM32 |
| OTG FS host driver. This is still a work in progress. |
| |
| Bugfixes (see the change log for details) : |
| |
| * PIC32: GPIO output configuration (critical bug) |
| * STM32: Typos in pin mapping files. |
| * LM3S: Fixed an optimization related but that caused slow start-up |
| times if optimization was disabled. |
| * Library: Fixed signed extension but in all limit.h files |
| (reported by Lorenz Meier). inet_ntoa compilation failure |
| on Z80. |
| |
| As well as other, less critical bugs (see the ChangeLog for details) |
