Note +that release consists of two tarballs: nuttx-6.15.tar.gz and +apps-6.15.tar.gz. Both may be needed (see the top-level nuttx/README.txt +file for build information). + +New features and extended functionality: + + * General Drivers: Add support for (29-bit) extended CAN IDs. Add an + infrastructure to support battery drivers. Add a driver for MAX17040x + battery "fuel gauge". Add support for Composite USB drivers (in + particular for a CDC/ACM with MSC USB composite driver). + + Added a new RAM logging driver. This will allow debug output into + a RAM buffer associated with a character driver at /dev/syslog. + Added the new command 'dmesg' to NSH that can be used to dump the + current contents of the log. This is useful for systems that do not + have the usual serial console (for example, if you only have a + Telnet console with NSH). + + * Networking: Add a lower level, primitive socket interface. Telnet + driver: + + A New Telnet daemon was created. It wraps a Telnet session within a + character driver that can serve as a "controlling terminal." The + Telnet session will then be inherited by tasks created from the + Telnet session and the stdin/stdout from the created task will + still go through the same Telnet connection. + + * STM32 Drivers. PWM driver pulse count was limited to 128; now is + (essentially) unlimited. Add support for (29-bit) extended CAN IDs. + Add support for I2C3. The SDIO driver is (mostly) verified on the + STM32 F4 platforms. + + * LPC17xx Drivers. Extended the CAN driver so that the TSEG1 and TSEG2 + bit times can be set via the NuttX configuration. Add support for + (29-bit) extended CAN IDs. + + * PIC32 Drivers. The PIC32 Ethernet driver is code complete (but still + untested). + + * FTPD. Add a new FTP server daemon. This is based loosely on + the hwport_ftpd library provided by Jaehyuk Cho. + + * Library: Add support for on_exit(). Implemented tcsetattr() and + tcgetattr(). Moved the old, too-smart fgets() to a new application + library function called readline(). Dumbed down the original fgets(). + Add strcasestr(), avsprintf(), inet_ntop(), and inet_pton(). + Add support to enable or disable debug output. + + * Build system: Support for building a 32-bit simulation executable on + a 64-bit Linux machine. Correct a dependency issue in the arch/*/src/board + directory. + +Bugfixes: + + * System: Correct PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER + + * FAT: Fix an error in the FAT statfs() reported by David Sidrane. + + * STM32: Fix clock frequencies for APB2 timers. Correct AFIO register + offset. + + * PIC32. Correct GPIOs used for LEDs on the Sure PIC32MX board. + + * NSH.
