*** 2.1.6 *** - FIX: Fixed error in sdPutTimeout() macro (bug 3138763)(backported in 2.0.9). - NEW: New ARM Cortex-Mx port for IAR compiler (probably will not be included in 2.2.0, requires more testing). - NEW: Now the STM32 CAN driver puts the lower half word of the ESR register in the upper half word of the can status word for easier debug. - CHANGE: Changes in the board files organization, now the board initialization is invoked from within halInit() after all the device drivers have been initialized. Now applications are required to explicitly invoke halInit() and chSysInit() from within their main(). - CHANGE: Removed the CMSIS files from the ARMCMx port, added the headers into the various HAL platforms requiring them. The change is required because the port layer must not have vendor specific dependencies and there is the possibility that the various vendors would use different CMSIS versions now that CMSIS 2.x has been released. - CHANGE: Modified the start of the ADC in the STM32 ADC driver, now it is no more required to specify ADC_CR2_EXTSEL_SWSTART and ADC_CR2_CONT in the CR2 register configuration. Also reordered the start sequence in order to allows a longer stabilization time for the ADC. - Documentation improvements.
ChibiOS/RT version 2.1.7 unstable has been released. This version includes support for RVCT compiler and improved support for the IAR compiler. This release is "feature complete" and has to be considered a release candidate for the upcoming 2.2.0 stable release.
- FIX: Fixed error in chIOGetxxxxxEventSource() macros (bug 3153550) (backported to 2.0.10) - FIX: Fixed error in STM32 unbuffered UART driver (bug 3153437). - FIX: Fixed wrong macro check in LPC214x driver (bug 3152510). - FIX: Fixed switch condition error in STM32 PWM driver (bug 3152482) (backported to 2.0.10). - FIX: Fixed error in output queues static initializer (bug 3149141) (backported to 2.0.9). - FIX: Fixed extra notifications in input queues (bug 3148525)(backported to 2.0.9). - NEW: New ARM Cortex-Mx port for RVCT compiler. - NEW: Integrated the various Cortex-Mx GCC, IAR and RVCT demos in unified demos with multiple project files, the code is exactly the same. Renamed the directories removing the compiler suffix. - NEW: Added an USB clock configuration in the STM32 HAL driver (LD, MD, HD). - NEW: New semaphore API chSemSetCounterI(). - NEW: New queue APIs chIQGetFullI() and chOQGetFullI(). - CHANGE: Serial drivers now have a single event source instead of three, the event source is located in the superclass, this allows to create alternative implementations of the serial driver while keeping compatibility, the change also allowed to save 8/4 RAM bytes per serial driver. - CHANGE: Modified the ADC and CAN drivers to allow a NULL pointer for the configuration structure if it is not required by the implementation. - CHANGE: Modified the MMC_SPI driver to *require* a NULL as pointer to the configuration. - CHANGE: Removed enforced inlining for the chSchReadyI() function when the CH_OPTIMIZE_SPEED is enabled. Now the matter is left to the compiler specific settings. This change is meant to increase compatibility with compilers that have a different inlining semantic than GCC when not in C99 mode. - CHANGE: Changed the declaration of the main() function in all demos without arguments. Removed the clearing of arguments from the startup files and saved some space. - CHANGE: Queues callbacks now have as parameter a pointer to the queue, there were no parameters previously. - Documentation related fixes.
