The documentation is also available on the project web page: http://chibios.sourceforge.net/ Current ports under ./demos: Win32-MinGW - ChibiOS/RT simulator and demo into a WIN32 process, MinGW version. Win32-MSVS - ChibiOS/RT simulator and demo into a WIN32 process, Visual Studio 7 or any later version should work. LPC214x-GCC - ChibiOS/RT port for ARM7 LPC2148, the demo targets the Olimex LPC-P2148 board. This port can be easily modified for any processor into the LPC2000 family or other boards. The demo can be compiled using YAGARTO or any other GCC-based ARM toolchain. ***************************************************************************** *** Releases *** ***************************************************************************** *** 0.3.0 *** - ChibiOS/RT goes beta. - Diet for the threads code, some simple APIs become macros. - Thread Local Storage implemented as a single API: chThdLS(). The API simply returns a pointer into the thread working area, see the documentation on the web site. - Moved some documentation and images from the web site into the Doxigen generated HTMLs. *** 0.2.1 *** - Optimizations in the RT semaphores subsystem. The support for this subsystem should still be considered experimental and further changes may happen in future versions. - Bug fix in the virtual timers handling code, now the timers can be re-armed from within the callback code in order to create periodic virtual timers. - Modified the t_prio type in the demos to be 32bits wide instead of 16bits, this results in a better code in critical sections of the kernel. *** 0.2.0 *** - Introduced support for ARM in thumb mode. - Optimized context switching when thumb-interworking is not required, one less instruction. - Minor fixes to the ARM demo. *** 0.1.1 *** - Some fixes into the documentation - Renamed makefiles to Makefiles, upper case M. *** 0.1.0 *** - First alpha release
