11.0.0 - released?

[TimH]

Have been waiting for 11.0.0 to be released so I can merge into my 10.3
efforts. I see 11.0 is on GitHub under releases, but when I start the merge,
files appear to be tagged with nuttx-11.0.0-RC2. I also don't recall seeing
an email here about the release.

 

Before I continue, can someone confirm that the 11.0 release on GitHub is
the pukka release, please?

RE: 11.0.0 - released?

Hi Tim
We are waiting for the IPMC vote so that we can release RC2 as final

NuttX and Gigadevice ARM processors?

[Frank-Christian Kruegel]

Hi;

there is a global shortage of STM32 processors on the market. I've seen 
STM32F767 selling for 480U$.


Has anybody tried Gigadevice processors? They claim to be STM 
replacements. I've got a design ready for a 144 pin STM32 (either F767 
or F427/429), and it seems that the GD32F427 are replacements for those 
that you can actually buy in quantities for a normal price (8.74 U$ for 
an GD32F427ZGT6)

https://www.gigadevice.com/products/microcontrollers/gd32/arm-cortex-m4/high-performance-line/gd32f427-series/

Does it run NuttX?

Re: 11.0.0 - released?

[Nathan Hartman]

Hi Tim,

(and everyone else who is interested in helping with the release)

Feel free to vote on the release in the IPMC [VOTE] thread [1]. You don't
need to be a IPMC member to vote. Although your vote will be non-binding
and therefore doesn't count toward the release itself, it will still be
significant in the sense of showing support for the project and also
keeping the vote thread at the top of IPMC members' inboxes so hopefully
they'll vote on it. The squeaky wheel gets the oil!

We only need one more binding IPMC vote to make the release!

The vote thread is here:

[1]
https://lists.apache.org/thread/0h6wq2cqk3ckdttz78964fw4007b51lr

Note: If you don't have the above vote thread message in your inbox to
reply to it, you can still send a reply that will appear together with it
in the archives, provided you can add a custom In-Reply-To header in your
mail client. At the above link, click the link for the raw message which
shows full headers. Copy the value of Message-ID. In your reply, put that
value for In-Reply-To. See, for example, this StackExchange answer:

Gigadevice made a port recently:
add chip GD32F450 of GD32MCU by GD32-MCU · Pull Request #7011 ·
apache/incubator-nuttx (github.com)

You can try it.

RE: [RESULT] Release Apache NuttX (Incubating) 11.0.0 [RC2]

[TimH]

Would you still like another non-binding +1 vote?

I just merged 11.0.0 [RC2] into my 10.3 endeavours with my custom board and 
have successfully built and run a Nuttx shell (after a few changes to my custom 
make.defs).

[apache/incubator-nuttx] tools/configure.sh: Update USAGE for custom out-of-tree boards (PR #7103)

[TimH]

As per request below, I’m happy to add a paragraph or two regarding this, but I 
am not sure where it should go?

 

It could be a section in “guides” or I could add it to the FAQ. What is 
preferred, assuming the Documentation folder in the repo is actually the right 
place for this of course?

 

Related to this, what is the significance of the cwiki 
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX) as that has a lot more 
information in it compared to the Nuttx distro’s Documentation folder, but is 
outdated and perhaps not maintained I think? The cwiki has information on 
custom app directory usage that could either be a source of info for a more 
complete “custom environment” guide or is the actually the intended place for 
the custom boards info I’ve been asked to add?

 

TIA,

 

TimH

@TimJTi   :

Bear in mind that a distclean will wipe .config so any settings of paths etc. 
there become irrelevant…that’s what “did me in”!

I don't think we have good documentation on how to do custom-out-of-tree 
boards. Since you're working with an out-of-tree board, would you be willing to 
write something helpful for including in Documentation? It wouldn't have to be 
super long and detailed, just how to invoke the configure.sh script, which 
Kconfig options to set, and gotchas to avoid like distclean wiping the .config!

I think it would best fit in guides under the Documentation folder in
the repo, and I think that's where all "official" documentation should
ultimately be.

>From my memory, before NuttX joined the Apache.org Incubator, what's
now in the CWIKI was in a MediaWiki on the NuttX website. When we
joined the Incubator, this was somehow migrated to the Apache.org
CWIKI. Some (or most?) of it was then migrated again into what is now
the Documentation folder in the repo. However, there are some
differences between the two because new documentation has been written
under Documentation while some of the docs available in the CWIKI may
not have been migrated, and I think there are still articles in the
CWIKI that have not made it into Documentation.

As to what's the purpose of the CWIKI: Some time ago, I asked whether
we should keep the CWIKI around. Now I can't seem to locate that email
after a quick search, but as I remember, a few people said they would
like to keep the CWIKI as a place to collaborate on documentation, as
it makes real-time collaborative writing easier (without the added
friction of making PRs) and then migrate finished documents into
Documentation.

In short, there's some work yet to be done on documentation and it
isn't a secret that we, like probably most community-driven projects,
need lots of help improving our documentation!!!

Hope that helps. I'd like to say a sincere THANK YOU for any
improvements you're willing to make, large or small!

Cheers,
Nathan

Got it - thanks Nathan. I will probably plunder some text from the cwiki then, 
and not feel guilty :-)

This vote (in the NuttX PPMC, i.e., dev@nuttx.apache.org) passed, but
since we're an incubating project (until we graduate), we need a
second round of voting in the Apache.org IPMC (i.e.,
gene...@incubator.apache.org)... That vote has not closed yet and,
yes, we would like all the attention we could get on it!!

Let me find that vote thread

Here it is: https://lists.apache.org/thread/0h6wq2cqk3ckdttz78964fw4007b51lr

Let us know if you need anything!

Nathan

Forgot to say: When you vote, please write "(non-binding)" -- unless
you're a member of the Incubator PMC (IPMC) of course!

Even if the vote is non-binding, it still attracts attention to the
project and may help us get some binding votes from IPMC members.

(I heard that quite a few of the IPMC mentors are at Apachecon and
that has been delaying things like votes as well as sign-offs on board
reports. So hopefully in the next few days the situation will
improve.)

Cheers,
Nathan

I'm assuming I have to have subscribed to that mailing list to vote so I just 
have, but it is not clear from the welcome email received how to actually get 
the relevant mail from Alin downloaded so I can reply? Looks like I need a 
message ID to get it, but can't see message IDS anywhere? Assuming that is the 
way to do this?

OK - found the ID by looking at the raw email on the lists.apache.org 
webpage...requested it by email...answer received with Alin's email attached 
but the actual body text is completely missing. But replied anyway, pasting a 
small snip of text to give it context!

I don't think you have to be subscribed; AFAIK anyone should be able
to email gene...@incubator.apache.org (and most if not all mailing
lists) though if you're not subscribed then you'd have to ask people
to CC you on any responses and then hopefully they do...

Great! I can confirm I see it and it shows up as a reply to that
thread, so looks like that In-Reply-To trick worked. :-)

Thanks for helping!
