< b > Directory Structure< / b > .
The general directly layout for NuttX is very similar to the directory structure
of the Linux kernel -- at least at the most superficial layers.
At the top level is the main makefile and a series of sub-directories identified
below and discussed in the following paragraphs:

The NuttX configuration consists of:
< / p >
< ul >
< li >
< i > Processor architecture specific files< / i > .
These are the files contained in the < code > arch/< / code > < i > < arch-name> < / i > < code > /< / code > directory
and are discussed in a paragraph < a href = "#archdirectorystructure" > below< / a > .
< / li >
< li >
< i > Chip/SoC specific files< / i > .
Each processor processor architecture is embedded in chip or < i > System-on-a-Chip< / i > (SoC) architecture.
The full chip architecture includes the processor architecture plus chip-specific interrupt logic,
clocking logic, general purpose I/O (GIO) logic, and specialized, internal peripherals (such as UARTs, USB, etc.).
< p >
These chip-specific files are contained within chip-specific sub-directories in the
< code > arch/< / code > < i > < arch-name> < / i > < code > /< / code > directory and are selected via
the < code > CONFIG_ARCH_name< / code > selection.

< i > Board specific configurations< / i > .
2007-03-27 21:27:41 +00:00
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.).
< p >
These board-specific configuration files can be found in the
< code > configs/< / code > < i > < board-name> < / i > < code > /< / code > sub-directories and are discussed
2008-02-07 14:41:11 +00:00

This directory contains several sub-directories, each containing
architecture-specific logic.
2007-03-23 02:25:54 +00:00
The task of porting NuttX to a new processor consists of
2008-02-07 14:41:11 +00:00
add a new subdirectory under < code > arch/< / code > containing logic specific
to the new architecture.
2007-03-23 02:25:54 +00:00
The complete board port in is defined by the architecture-specific code in this
directory (plus the board-specific configurations in the < code > config/< / code >
subdirectory).
2007-03-27 21:27:41 +00:00
Each architecture must provide a subdirectory, < i > < arch-name> < / i >
2007-03-23 02:25:54 +00:00
under < code > arch/< / code > with the following characteristics:

A user-mode port of NuttX to the x86 Linux platform is available.
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
The purpose of this port is primarily to support OS feature development.
2008-11-05 22:16:22 +00:00
This port does not support interrupts or a real timer (and hence no
round robin scheduler) Otherwise, it is complete.

This is a port of the Hitachi SH-1 on the Hitachi SH-1/US7032EVB1 board.
2009-12-13 18:01:46 +00:00
STATUS: This port is available as of release 0.3.18 of NuttX. The port is basically
complete and many examples run correctly. However, there are remaining instabilities
that make the port un-usable. The nature of these is not understood; the behavior is
that certain SH-1 instructions stop working as advertised. This could be a silicon
problem, some pipeline issue that is not handled properly by the gcc 3.4.5 toolchain
(which has very limited SH-1 support to begin with), or perhaps with the CMON debugger.
At any rate, I have exhausted all of the energy that I am willing to put into this cool
old processor for the time being.

< p >
Where < i > < board-name> < / i > is the name of one of the sub-directories of the
NuttX < a href = "#DirStructConfigs" > < code > configs/< / code > < / a > directory.
This sub-directory name corresponds to one of the supported boards

Once NuttX has been configured as described < a href = "#configuringnuttx" > above< / a > , it may be built as follows:
< / p >
< ul > < pre >
cd ${TOPDIR}
source ./setenv.sh
make
< / pre > < / ul >

< / ul >
< p >
That directory also holds:

The < a href = "#boardconfigsubdirs" > < code > setenv.sh< / code > < / a > contains Linux/Cygwin environmental settings that are needed for the build.
The specific environmental definitions are unique for each board but should include, as a minimum, updates to the < code > PATH< / code > variable to include the full path to the architecture-specific toolchain identified in < a href = "#boardconfigsubdirs" > < code > Make.defs< / code > < / a > .
The < a href = "#boardconfigsubdirs" > < code > setenv.sh< / code > < / a > only needs to be source'ed at the beginning of a session.
2007-03-27 21:27:41 +00:00
The system can be re-made subsequently by just typing < code > make< / code > .
< / p >

The architecture specific code must configure things so
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
that the 'sigdeliver' callback is executed on the thread

< / p >
< p >
This function may be called from interrupt handling logic.
< / p >

This operation should not cause the task to be unblocked
nor should it cause any immediate execution of sigdeliver.
Typically, a few cases need to be considered:
< / p >
< ol >
< li >
This function may be called from an interrupt handler
During interrupt processing, all xcptcontext structures
should be valid for all tasks. That structure should
be modified to invoke sigdeliver() either on return
from (this) interrupt or on some subsequent context
switch to the recipient task.
< / li >
< li >
If not in an interrupt handler and the tcb is NOT
the currently executing task, then again just modify
the saved xcptcontext structure for the recipient
task so it will invoke sigdeliver when that task is
later resumed.

Disable the IRQ specified by 'irq'
2008-12-05 22:57:27 +00:00
On many architectures, there are three levels of interrupt enabling: (1)
at the global level, (2) at the level of the interrupt controller,
and (3) at the device level. In order to receive interrupts, they
must be enabled at all three levels.
< / p >

This function implements enabling of the device specified by 'irq'
at the interrupt controller level if supported by the architecture
(irqsave() supports the global level, the device level is hardware
specific).

< h2 > < a name = "ledsupport" > 4.3 LED Support< / a > < / h2 >
< p >
A board architecture may or may not have LEDs.
If the board does have LEDs, then most architectures provide similar LED support that is enabled when < code > CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS< / code >
is selected in the NuttX configuration file.
This LED support is part of architecture-specific logic and is not managed by the core NuttX logic.
However, the support provided by each architecture is sufficiently similar that it can be documented here.
< / p >
< h3 > < a name = "ledheaders" > 4.3.1 Header Files< / a > < / h3 >
< p >
LED-related definitions are provided in two header files:
< ul >
< li >
LED definitions are provided for each board in the < code > board.h< / code > that resides
in the < code > < i > < board-name> < / i > /include/board.h< / code > file (which is also
linked to < code > include/arch/board/board.h< / code > when the RTOS is configured).
Those definitions are discussed < a href = "#leddefinitions" > below< / a > .
< / li >
< li >
The board-specific logic provides unique instances of the LED interfaces.
This is because the implementation of LED support may be very different
on different boards.
Prototypes for these board-specific implementations are, however, provided
in architecture-common header files.
That header file is usually at < code > < i > < arch-name> < / i > /src/common/up_internal.h< / code > ,
but could be at other locations in particular architectures.
These prototypes are discussed < a href = "#ledapis" > below< / a > .
< / li >
< / ul >
< / p >
< h3 > < a name = "leddefinitions" > 4.3.2 LED Definitions< / a > < / h3 >
< p >
The implementation of LED support is very specific to a board architecture.
Some boards have several LEDS, others have only one or two.
Some have none.
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
Others LED matrices and show alphanumeric data, etc.
2009-05-09 22:43:49 +00:00
The NuttX logic does not refer to specific LEDS, rather, it refers to an event to be shown on the LEDS
in whatever manner is appropriate for the board;
the way that this event is presented depends upon the hardware available on the board.
< / p >
< p >
The model used by NuttX is that the board can show 8 events defined as follows in < code > < i > < board-name> < / i > /include/board.h< / code > :
< / p >
< ul > < pre >
#define LED_STARTED ??
#define LED_HEAPALLOCATE ??
#define LED_IRQSENABLED ??
#define LED_STACKCREATED ??
#define LED_INIRQ ??
#define LED_SIGNAL ??
#define LED_ASSERTION ??
#define LED_PANIC ??
< / pre > < / ul >
< p >
The specific value assigned to each pre-processor variable can be whatever makes the implementation easiest for the board logic.
The < i > meaning< / i > associated with each definition is as follows:
< / p >
< ul >
< li >
< code > LED_STARTED< / code > is the value that describes the setting of the LEDs when the LED logic is first initialized.
This LED value is set but never cleared.
< / li >
< li >
< code > LED_HEAPALLOCATE< / code > indicates that the NuttX heap has been configured.
This is an important place in the boot sequence because if the memory is configured wrong, it will probably crash leaving this LED setting.
This LED value is set but never cleared.
< / li >
< li >
< code > LED_IRQSENABLED< / code > indicates that interrupts have been enabled.
Again, during bring-up (or if there are hardware problems), it is very likely that the system may crash just when interrupts are enabled, leaving this setting on the LEDs.
This LED value is set but never cleared.
< / li >
< li >
< code > LED_STACKCREATED< / code > is set each time a new stack is created.
If set, it means that the system attempted to start at least one new thread.
This LED value is set but never cleared.
< / li >
< li >
< code > LED_INIRQ< / code > is set and cleared on entry and exit from each interrupt.
If interrupts are working okay, this LED will have a dull glow.
< / li >
< li >
< code > LED_SIGNAL< / code > is set and cleared on entry and exit from a signal handler.
Signal handlers are tricky so this is especially useful during bring-up or a new architecture.
< / li >
< li >
< code > LED_ASSERTION< / code > is set if an assertion occurs.
< / li >
< li >
< code > LED_PANIC< / code > will blink at around 1Hz if the system panics and hangs.
< / li >

< p > < b > Overview< / b > .
NuttX includes an optional, scalable file system.
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
This file-system may be omitted altogether; NuttX does not depend on the presence
2007-12-10 17:15:11 +00:00
of any file system.
< / p >
< p > < b > Pseudo Root File System< / b > .
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
Or, a simple < i > in-memory< / i > , < i > pseudo< / i > file system can be enabled.
2007-12-10 17:15:11 +00:00
This simple file system can be enabled setting the CONFIG_NFILE_DESCRIPTORS
option to a non-zero value (see < a href = "#apndxconfigs" > Appendix A< / a > ).
This is an < i > in-memory< / i > file system because it does not require any
storage medium or block driver support.
Rather, file system contents are generated on-the-fly as referenced via
standard file system operations (open, close, read, write, etc.).
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
In this sense, the file system is < i > pseudo< / i > file system (in the
2007-12-10 17:15:11 +00:00
same sense that the Linux < code > /proc< / code > file system is also
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
referred to as a pseudo file system).

2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
Any user supplied data or logic can be accessed via the pseudo-file system.
2009-05-22 12:48:05 +00:00
Built in support is provided for character and block < a href = "#DeviceDrivers" > drivers< / a > in the
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
< code > /dev< / code > pseudo file system directory.
2007-12-10 17:15:11 +00:00
< / p >
< p > < b > Mounted File Systems< / b >
The simple in-memory file system can be extended my mounting block
devices that provide access to true file systems backed up via some
mass storage device.
NuttX supports the standard < code > mount()< / code > command that allows
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
a block driver to be bound to a mountpoint within the pseudo file system
2009-05-22 12:48:05 +00:00
and to a file system.
2007-12-10 17:15:11 +00:00
At present, NuttX supports only the VFAT file system.
< / p >
< p > < b > Comparison to Linux< / b >
From a programming perspective, the NuttX file system appears very similar
to a Linux file system.
However, there is a fundamental difference:
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
The NuttX root file system is a pseudo file system and true file systems may be
mounted in the pseudo file system.
2007-12-10 17:15:11 +00:00
In the typical Linux installation by comparison, the Linux root file system
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
is a true file system and pseudo file systems may be mounted in the true,
2007-12-10 17:15:11 +00:00
root file system.
The approach selected by NuttX is intended to support greater scalability
from the very tiny platform to the moderate platform.

NuttX supports a variety of device drivers including:

< li > Other < i > Specialized< / i > Drivers.< / li >

2009-05-22 12:48:05 +00:00
These different device driver types are discussed in the following paragraphs.
2009-06-04 19:45:33 +00:00
Note: device driver support requires that the < i > in-memory< / i > , < i > pseudo< / i > file system
2009-05-22 12:48:05 +00:00
is enabled by setting the CONFIG_NFILE_DESCRIPTORS in the NuttX configuration file to a
non-zero value.

Map ~username to < prefix> /username. This is the recommended choice.
Each user gets a subdirectory in the main web tree, and the tilde
construct points there. The prefix could be something like "users",
or it could be empty.

Map ~username to < user's homedir> /< postfix> . The postfix would be
the name of a subdirectory off of the user's actual home dir,
something like " public_html" .

< / ol >
You can also leave both options undefined, and thttpd will not do
anything special about tildes. Enabling both options is an error.
