Hi,
Latest version of the SDK can be found here:

https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/sdk-ng/releases/tag/v0.10.1-rc1

Please download and try things out and report any issues.

Changes since the last release:

• --enable-initfini-array to gcc configure
• Fix bossa (revert back to 1.9.1)
• Enable multilibs on RISC-V
• Fix inclusion of MIPS toolchain
• Add x86_64 toolchain
• Fix assembler issue for Cortex M-23
• Fixes for openocd on ARC
• Updated TI CC32xx openocd scripts

Can we please before the release do something about very outdated Newlib
in Xtensa SDK toolchain:
https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/sdk-ng/issues/64 ? That
complicates most of POSIX subsys work, and requires landing ugly
workarounds in the main codebase.

Is there a newer Newlib for Xtensa available?

Hi Martijn,

We have a prototype utilising the nRF52840 BME340 SoC module. Since we

prototype PCB which I'd like to use as a console when running the

ways to get logging output (we are using BLE)?

Since nRF52840 is a Cortex-M4 device yet another option that you have is
to use Serial Wire Output (SWO). ARM added it specifically to support
trace/logging. It is a high speed interface with low code footprint /
resource usage. Zephyr logger has SWO backend but you would need to
prepare a PR to add support for Nordic device(s). It shouldn't be too
difficult. At minimum you would need to select 'HAS_SWO' Kconfig option
and - looking quickly at the documentation, there may be things I missed
- set TRACECONFIG.TRACEMUX = 1.

Piotr

Hi Henrik,

RTT is the way to move forward as it seems, since it will provide a clean interface both on hardware and config. Thanks for pointing me there, and thanks for the soft-serial pointers from others in this thread as it might come in handy.

So, I've tried for the last two days to set RTT up, using the blinky or logging examples using a PCA10059 nRF52840 dongle just to experiment. I'm not connecting the dongle using USB but with a tag-connect TC2050-IDC-NL on the Segger J-Link with the pogo-pins directly on the board.

If I only use the CONFIG_RTT_CONSOLE=y nothing happens and the JLinkRTTLogger keeps searching for the RTT Control Block. Nothing happens.

If I take the log sample from the Zephyr project and use the prj_rtt.conf setting provided I run into different issues:

CONFIG_LOG=y
CONFIG_LOG_RUNTIME_FILTERING=y
CONFIG_LOG_BUFFER_SIZE=2048
CONFIG_LOG_PRINTK=y
CONFIG_LOG_PROCESS_TRIGGER_THRESHOLD=0
CONFIG_LOG_BACKEND_RTT=y
CONFIG_USE_SEGGER_RTT=y
CONFIG_COVERAGE=n

When using the Nordic SDK I'm getting into a world of hurt getting the Segger to compile in as this is triggered by the CONFIG_USE_SEGGER_RTT directive which can be fixed adding more include directories. The RTT tarball from Segger J-Link install is more forgiven, but I cannot get my project to compile since it eventually boils down to a missing include file on the ninja ccache step

Could be this is going to be a cmake question (sorry for that). I added stuff like include_directories(...) and others into the CMakeLists.txt file, but I cannot seem to get this going since the extra include dirs keep on missing.

Any pointers are welcome,
Thanks again for your time,
Martijn

Hi All,
I thought I would have a look at the IBM Watson IoT Platform (Bluemix) but I can't seem to connect. I followed the guides but I must be missing something.

I have connected to the Quick start test systems yet haven't been able to make any headway with the real version.

Any help would be greatly appropriated.

Billy..

Thank you very much for the agenda Carles.

With it, it should be much clearer to all what to expect from the meeting,
and can easily decide about joining or not

- Flash: write protection and read alignment unification
- GPIO: Proposal review

Hi Martinj,

This Zephyr example does UART over GPIO:
https://github.com/NXPmicro/zephyr/tree/soft_periph/samples/soft_periph

Here's a picture with the system overview:
https://www.zephyrproject.org/elc-openiot-nxp-demo/

However it receives the data to send via RPMsg from a second core running Linux and vice versa.
It could be possible to remove the RPMsg related part and rewrite the code into a driver and select that peripheral as a debug console in board's DTS file.
The code requires a hardware timer and supports just 8N1 format.

Best regards,
Stana

Hi Martijn,

Not sure about the exact situation you are facing, listed below please find some of the suggestions I can think of:

1. There are soft uart implementations on github, which you might be able to port to zephyr;
2. If you got SPI interface on your module, there are bridge modules available to convert i2c/spi to uart; // sc16is740 etc
3. If you only care about the application level log, probably you can use bluetooth to build a virtual serial port for logging purpose;

Best Regards,
Jian

Hi there,

Looked at some discussions on the Nordic devzone, but not a lot going for it.

Hi,

I have interfaced "ENC28J60" to "PCA10056"(NRF52840) through SPI. Made necessary configurations in order to reflect hardware changes in software. Flashed sample application, "dumb_http_server" to the board. Enabled "ARP" and "ICMP". I am able to ping the board from peer devices in network and vice versa. Also, I am able to "arping" the board from peer devices in network. After this, I have issued "net arp" command in the serial console of the board. By this, I am expecting a list of peer devices to be displayed on the console. But console throws a message saying "ARP cache is empty". Can I know the reason for this behavior? Please let me know, if I was wrong in the process. Also, let me know if more information is needed. Attached configuration file for reference.

Thanks & Regards,
Giri Prasad N.

Hi all,

I am working on bring back RPL to Zephyr, which includes migrating RPL to use net_pkt API.

The old RPL implementation was using net_pkt_insert() to insert RPL HBHO header when finalizing the udp packet. However, I can see that the net_pkt_insert() was removed already.

I am not very familiar with the Zephyr network architecture. One way I can think about is to update the RPL HBHO in net_udp_create(), though not sure if this is the right way to go ahead. Please help.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Jian

Hi,

Logger is now able to detect lack of log_strdup() wrapping when %s is used with string coming from read write memory. Logger will assert if asserts are enabled or log error message if asserts are disabled. Feature is optional, enabled by default: https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/pull/16310
