Toolchains

MPLAB/C32 ---------

I am using the free, "Lite" version of the PIC32MX toolchain available for download from the microchip.com web site. I am using the Windows version. The MicroChip toolchain is the only toolchain currently supported in these configurations, but it should be a simple matter to adapt to other toolchains by modifying the Make.defs file include in each configuration.

C32 Toolchain Options:

CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW      - MicroChip full toolchain for Windows
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPL      - MicroChip full toolchain for Linux
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW_LITE - MicroChip "Lite" toolchain for Windows
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPL_LITE - MicroChip "Lite" toolchain for Linux
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_PINGUINOL       - Pinquino toolchain for Linux
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_PINGUINOW       - Pinquino toolchain for Windows
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPOPENL  - Microchip open toolchain for Linux
CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_GNU_ELF         - General mips-elf toolchain for Linux

NOTE: The "Lite" versions of the toolchain does not support C++. Also certain optimization levels are not supported by the "Lite" toolchain.

MicrochipOpen -------------

An alternative, build-it-yourself toolchain is available here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/microchipopen/ . These tools were last updated circa 2010. NOTE: C++ support still not available in this toolchain.

Building MicrochipOpen (on Linux)

  1. Get the build script from this location:

    http://microchipopen.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/microchipopen/ccompiler4pic32/buildscripts/trunk/

  2. Build the code using the build script, for example:

    ./build.sh -b v105_freeze

    This will check out the selected branch and build the tools.

  3. Binaries will then be available in a subdirectory with a name something like pic32-v105-freeze-20120622/install-image/bin (depending on the current data and the branch that you selected.

    Note that the tools will have the prefix, mypic32- so, for example, the compiler will be called mypic32-gcc.

Penguino mips-elf Toolchain ---------------------------

Another option is the mips-elf toolchain used with the Penguino project. This is a relatively current mips-elf GCC and should provide free C++ support as well. This toolchain can be downloaded from the Penguino website: http://wiki.pinguino.cc/index.php/Main\_Page\#Download .

See also boards/mirtoo/README.txt. There is an experimental (untested) configuration for the Mirtoo platform in that directory.

MPLAB/C32 vs MPLABX/X32 -----------------------

It appears that Microchip is phasing out the MPLAB/C32 toolchain and replacing it with MPLABX and XC32. At present, the XC32 toolchain is not compatible with the NuttX build scripts. Here are some of the issues that I see when trying to build with XC32:

  1. Make.def changes: You have to change the tool prefix:

    CROSSDEV=xc32-

  2. debug.ld/release.ld: The like expect some things that are not present in the current linker scripts (or are expected with different names). Here are some partial fixes:

    Rename: kseg0_progmem to kseg0_program_mem Rename: kseg1_datamem to kseg1_data_mem

Even then, there are more warnings from the linker and some undefined symbols for non-NuttX code that resides in the unused Microchip libraries. You will have to solve at least this undefined symbol problem if you want to used the XC32 toolchain.

Windows Native Toolchains -------------------------

NOTE: 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.

Loading NuttX with PICkit2

NOTE: You need a PICKit3 if you plan to use the MPLAB debugger! The PICKit2 can, however, still be used to load programs. Instructions for the PICKit3 are similar.

Intel Hex Forma Files: ----------------------

When NuttX is built it will produce two files in the top-level NuttX
directory:

1) nuttx - This is an ELF file, and
2) nuttx.hex - This is an Intel Hex format file.  This is controlled by
   the setting CONFIG_INTELHEX_BINARY in the .config file.

The PICkit tool wants an Intel Hex format file to burn into FLASH. However,
there is a problem with the generated nutt.hex: The tool expects the nuttx.hex
file to contain physical addresses.  But the nuttx.hex file generated from the
top-level make will have address in the KSEG0 and KSEG1 regions.

tools/pic32/mkpichex: ----------------------

There is a simple tool in the NuttX tools/pic32 directory that can be
used to solve both issues with the nuttx.hex file.  But, first, you must
build the tool:

  cd tools/pic32
  make -f Makefile.host

Now you will have an executable file call mkpichex (or mkpichex.exe on
Cygwin).  This program will take the nutt.hex file as an input, it will
convert all of the KSEG0 and KSEG1 addresses to physical address, and
it will write the modified file, replacing the original nuttx.hex.

To use this file, you need to do the following things:

  export PATH = ??? # Add the NuttX tools/pic32 directory to your
                    # PATH variable
  make              # Build nuttx and nuttx.hex
  mkpichex $PWD     # Convert addresses in nuttx.hex.  $PWD is the path
                    # to the top-level build directory.  It is the only
                    # required input to mkpichex.

  This procedure is automatically performed at the end of a build.

LCD1602

The on-board LCD is a 2x16 segment LCD and appears to be compatible with the LCD1602 and is treated like an LCD1602 LCD here.

PIC32MXx USB Device Configuration

PIC32MXx USB Host Configuration (the PIC32MX does not support USB Host)

Configurations

Each PIC32MX configuration is maintained in a sub-directory and can be selected as follow:

tools/configure.sh sure-pic32mx:<subdir>

Where <subdir> is one of the following sub-directories.

NOTE: 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
   see additional README.txt files in the NuttX tools repository.

b. Execute 'make menuconfig' in nuttx/ in order to start the
   reconfiguration process.

Configuration sub-directories

Where <subdir> is one of the following:

nsh: ==== Description. ------------ Configures the NuttShell (nsh) located at apps/examples/nsh. The Configuration enables only the serial NSH interface.

Notes.
-----
1. By default, this configuration uses an older Microchip C32 toolchain
   for Windows (the newer ones seem to be incompatible) and builds under
   Cygwin (or probably MSYS).  That can easily be reconfigured, of course.

   Build Setup:
     CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y    : Builds under Windows
     CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y  : Using Cygwin

   System Type:
     CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW_LITE=y : Older C32 toolchain

2. USB Configurations.

  Several USB device configurations can be enabled and included
  as NSH built-in built in functions.  All require the following
  basic setup in your .config to enable USB device support:

    Drivers:
      CONFIG_USBDEV=y           : Enable basic USB device support

   System Type -> PIC32MX Peripheral Support:
      CONFIG_PIC32MX_USBDEV=y   : Enable PIC32 USB device support

  system/cdcacm -  The system/cdcacm program can be included as an
  function by dding the following to the NuttX configuration file:

    Application Configuration->Examples:
      CONFIG_SYSTEM_CDCACM=y  : Select apps/system/cdcacm

  and defining the following in your .config file:

    Drivers->USB Device Driver Support
      CONFIG_CDCACM=y           : Enable the CDCACM device

  system/usbmsc - To enable the USB mass storage class (MSC)device,
  you would need to add the following to the NuttX configuration file.
  However, this device cannot work until support for the SD card is
  also incorporated.

    Drivers->USB Device Driver Support
      CONFIG_USBMSC=y           : Enables the USB MSC class

    Application Configuration->Examples:
      CONFIG_SYSTEM_USBMSC=y  : Enhables apps/system/usbmsc

3. SD Card Support.

  Support for the on-board, SPI-based SD card is available but is
  not yet functional (at least at the time of this writing).  SD
  card support can be enabled for testing by simply enabling SPI2
  support in the configuration file:

   System Type -> PIC32MX Peripheral Support:
     CONFIG_PIC32MX_SPI2=y      : Enable SPI2

   Drivers:
     CONFIG_MMCSD=y             : MMC/SD support
     CONFIG_MMCSD_SPI=y         : SPI-based MMC/SD support

   File Systems:
     CONFIG_FS_FAT=y            : FAT file system
                                : Other FAT options

Debug output for testing the SD card can be enabled using:

   Build Setup:
     CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES=y    : Enable debug features
     CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y        : Enable verbose debug output
     CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y          : Enable file system debug
     CONFIG_DEBUG_SPI=y         : Enable SPI debug

4. To enable LCD1602 support:

   Device Drivers ->LCD Driver Support:
     CONFIG_LCD=y               : Enable LCD menus
     CONFIG_LCD_LCD1602=y       : Select LCD1602
     CONFIG_LCD_MAXCONTRAST=255 : (Or any large-ish value that you prefer)
     CONFIG_LCD_MAXPOWER=255    : (Or any large-ish value that you prefer)

   Library Routines:
     CONFIG_LIBC_SLCDCODEC=y     : Enable the SLCD CODEC

   NOTE that is is not necessary to select the PMP peripheral; this LCD
   driver is a bit-bang driver that just happens to use the PMP pins as
   GPIOS.

   To enable apps/examples/slcd to test the LCD:

   Application Configuration -> NSH Library:
     CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y      : Needed to initialize the SLCD

   Application Configuration -> Examples:
     CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SLCD=y     : Enable apps/examples/slcd use /dev/lcd1602
     CONFIG_EXAMPLES_SLCD_DEVNAME="/dev/lcd1602"

   To enable LCD debug output:

   Build Setup -> Debug Options:
     CONFIG_DEBUG_FEATURES=y             : Enable debug features
     CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y     : Enable verbose debug output
     CONFIG_DEBUG_LCD=y         : Enable LCD debug output

   NOTES:
   2013-05-27: The LCD1602 has been verified on the DB-DP11212 using
     this configuration.  It has not been used with the usbnsh configuration
     or with the DB-11112 board.  It looks to me like the connection to the
     LCD1602 is identical on the DB-11112 and so I would expect that to work.

     At this point in time, testing of the SLCD is very limited because
     there is not much in apps/examples/slcd.  Basically  driver with a working
     test setup and ready to be tested and debugged.

usbnsh: ======= Description. ------------ This is another NSH example. If differs from the 'nsh' configuration above in that this configurations uses a USB serial device for console I/O. This configuration was created to support the "DB-DP11212 PIC32 General Purpose Demo Board" which has no easily accessible serial port. However, as of this writing, the configuration has set for the "DB_DP11215 PIC32 Storage Demo Board" and has only be testing on that board.

Notes.
-----
1. By default, this configuration uses an older Microchip C32 toolchain
   for Windows (the newer ones seem to be incompatible) and builds under
   Cygwin (or probably MSYS).  That can easily be reconfigured, of course.

   Build Setup:
     CONFIG_HOST_WINDOWS=y      : Builds under Windows
     CONFIG_WINDOWS_CYGWIN=y    : Using Cygwin

   System Type:
     CONFIG_MIPS32_TOOLCHAIN_MICROCHIPW_LITE=y : Older C32 toolchain

2. Comparison to nsh

  Below summarizes the key configuration differences between the 'nsh'
  and the 'upnsh' configurations:

    CONFIG_USBDEV=y               : NuttX USB device support is enabled
    CONFIG_PIC32MX_USBDEV=y       : The PIC32MX USB device driver is built
    CONFIG_DEV_CONSOLE=n          : /dev/console does not exist on power up
    CONFIG_UART1_SERIAL_CONSOLE=n : There is no serial console
    CONFIG_UART2_SERIAL_CONSOLE=n :
    CONFIG_CDCACM=y               : The CDC/ACM serial device class is enabled
    CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE=y       : The CDC/ACM serial device is the console

3. Using the Prolifics PL2303 Emulation

  You could also use the non-standard PL2303 serial device instead of
  the standard CDC/ACM serial device by changing:

    Drivers->USB Device Driver Support
      CONFIG_CDCACM=n             : Disable the CDC/ACM serial device class
      CONFIG_CDCACM_CONSOLE=n     : The CDC/ACM serial device is NOT the console
      CONFIG_PL2303=y             : The Prolifics PL2303 emulation is enabled
      CONFIG_PL2303_CONSOLE=y     : The PL2303 serial device is the console

  Why would you want to use a non-standard USB serial driver?  You might
  to use the PL2303 driver with a Windows host because it should
  automatically install the PL2303 driver (you might have to go through
  some effort to get Windows to recognize the CDC/ACM device).

4. Since this configuration is current set for the "DB_DP11215 PIC32
   Storage Demo Board," UART2 is available and is configured to used as
   the SYSLOG device.  That means that all debug output will be directed
   out UART2.  Debug output is not enabled by default, however, so these
   settings do nothing until you enable debug output.

    Device Drivers -> System Logging Device Options:
      CONFIG_SYSLOG_CHAR=y
      CONFIG_SYSLOG_DEVPATH="/dev/ttyS0"

    System Type -> PIC32MX Peripheral Support:
      CONFIG_PIC32MX_UART2=y      : Enable UART2

    Device Drivers -> Serial Driver Support:
      CONFIG_UART2_2STOP=0        : UART2 configuration
      CONFIG_UART2_BAUD=115200
      CONFIG_UART2_BITS=8
      CONFIG_UART2_PARITY=0
      CONFIG_UART2_RXBUFSIZE=64
      CONFIG_UART2_TXBUFSIZE=64

   NOTE:  Using the SYSLOG to get debug output has limitations.  Among
   those are that you cannot get debug output from interrupt handlers.
   So, in particularly, debug output is not a useful way to debug the
   USB device controller driver.  Instead, use the USB monitor with
   USB debug off and USB trance on (see below).

5. Enabling USB monitor SYSLOG output.  If tracing is enabled, the USB
   device will save encoded trace output in in-memory buffer; if the
   USB monitor is enabled, that trace buffer will be periodically
   emptied and dumped to the system logging device (UART2 in this
   configuration):

    Device Drivers -> "USB Device Driver Support:
      CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE=y                   : Enable USB trace feature
      CONFIG_USBDEV_TRACE_NRECORDS=256        : Buffer 256 records in memory

    Application Configuration -> NSH LIbrary:
      CONFIG_NSH_USBDEV_TRACE=n               : No builtin tracing from NSH
      CONFIG_NSH_ARCHINIT=y                   : Automatically start the USB monitor

    Application Configuration -> System NSH Add-Ons:
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR=y              : Enable the USB monitor daemon
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_STACKSIZE=2048 : USB monitor daemon stack size
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_PRIORITY=50    : USB monitor daemon priority
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_INTERVAL=1     : Dump trace data every second
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACEINIT=y    : Enable TRACE output
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACECLASS=y
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACETRANSFERS=y
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACECONTROLLER=y
      CONFIG_USBMONITOR_TRACEINTERRUPTS=y

   NOTE: USB debug output also be enabled in this case.  Both will appear
   on the serial SYSLOG output.  However, the debug output will be
   asynchronous with the trace output and, hence, difficult to interpret.

6. If you want to try this configuration on the DB-DP11212 PIC32 General
   Purpose Demo Board", here are the changes that you should make:

    Board Configuration:
       CONFIG_ARCH_DBDP11215=n    : Disable the DB-DP11215
       CONFIG_ARCH_DBDP11212=y    : Enable the DB-DP11212
       CONFIG_ARCH_LEDS=n         : The DB-DP11212 has no LEDs

    System Type -> PIC32MX Peripheral Support:
       CONFIG_PIC32MX_UART2=n     : Disable UART2

    The SYSLOG output on UART2 cannot by used.  You have two choices,
    first, you can simply disable the SYSLOG device.  Then 1) debug
    output will come the USB console, and 2) all debug output prior
    to connecting the USB console will be lost:

    The second options is to configure a RAM SYSLOG device.  This is
    a circular buffer that accumulated debug output in memory.  The
    contents of the circular buffer can be dumped from the NSH command
    line using the 'dmesg' command.

    Device Drivers -> System Logging Device Options:
      CONFIG_RAMLOG=y             : Enable the RAM-based logging feature.
      CONFIG_RAMLOG_SYSLOG=y      : This enables the RAM-based logger as the
                                    system logger.

    Logging is currently can be set up to use any amount of memory (here 8KB):

      CONFIG_RAMLOG_BUFSIZE=8192

    STATUS:
      2013-7-4:  This configuration was last verified.

 7. See the notes for the nsh configuration.  Most also apply to the usbnsh
    configuration as well.
