Autoconf support -=================== - -This version of RTEMS is configured with GNU autoconf. RTEMS can be -configured and built either standalone or together with the compiler -tools in the Cygnus one-tree structure. Using autoconf also means -that RTEMS now can be built in a separate build directory. - -To re-generate auto*tool generated files (configure, Makefile.in etc), -autoconf-2.68 and automake-1.11.1 are required. - -2. Installation -=============== - -To configure RTEMS for a specific target, run configure in the build -directory. In addition to the standard configure options, the following -RTEMS-specific option are supported: - - --disable-rtems-inlines - --disable-posix - --disable-networking - --enable-cxx - --enable-multiprocessing - --enable-rtemsbsp="bsp1 bsp2 ..." - --enable-tests - --enable-rdbg (only valid for i386 and some PowerPC BSPs) - --enable-docs - -In addition, the following standard autoconf options are frequently -used when configuring RTEMS installations: - - --prefix=INSTALL_DIRECTORY - -By default, inline routines are used instead of macros where possible. -Macros can be selected using the --disable-inlines option. [NOTE: -Some APIs may not support macro versions of their inline routines.] - -By default, the RTEMS POSIX 1003.1b interface is built for targets that support -it. It can be disabled with the --disable-posix option. - -By default, the RTEMS networking support is built for targets which -support it. It can be specifically disabled for those targets -with the --disable-networking option. - -By default, the RTEMS remote debugger server support is not built. -It can be specifically enabled for the targets that support it. -with the --enable-rdbg option. NB : the RTEMS networking support -must be enabled to support the remote debugger server. - -By default, the RTEMS support of C++ is disabled. It can be enabled -with the --enable-cxx option. If the rtems++ C++ library is installed -it will also be build. - -By default, the RTEMS test suites are NOT configured -- only the -sample tests are built. --enable-tests will configure -the RTEMS test suite. The default speeds up the build -and configure process when the tests are not desired. - -By default, RTEMS is built using arguments and build rules which require a -gcc supporting the -specs option, ie. a gcc >= 2.8. -[The --disable-gcc28 option, which has been present in former releases, has -been removed.] - -By default, multiprocessing is is not built. It can be enabled -for those BSPs supporting it by the --enable-multiprocessing option. - -By default, all bsps for a target are built. The bare BSP is not built -unless directly specified. There are two ways of changing this: - -+ use the --enable-rtemsbsp option which will set the specified - bsps as the default bsps, or -+ set the RTEMS_BSP variable during make (see below). - -The --enable-rtemsbsp= option configures RTEMS for a specific board -within a target architecture. Remember that the target specifies the -CPU family while the BSP specifies the precise board you will be using. -The following targets are supported: - - arm-rtems4.10 - avr-rtems4.10 - bfin-rtems4.10 - h8300-rtems4.10 - i386-rtems4.10 - lm32-rtems4.10 - m32c-rtems4.10 - m32r-rtems4.10 - m68k-rtems4.10 - mips-rtems4.10 - no_cpu-rtems4.10 - powerpc-rtems4.10 - sh-rtems4.10 - sparc-rtems4.10 - -The cross-compiler is set to $(target)-gcc by default. - -To build, run make in the build directory. To specify which bsps to build, -add the RTEMS_BSP="bsp1 bsp2 .." to the make command. Specifying multiple -BSPs to build only works from the top level build directory. - -Installation is done under $(prefix)/rtems. - -As an example, to build and install the mvme136 and mvme162 bsps for m68k do: - - (path_to_rtems_src)/configure --target=m68k-rtems4.11 - - make RTEMS_BSP="mvme136 mvme162" - - make install RTEMS_BSP="mvme136 mvme162" - -The sample tests are built by 'make all' when configured with ---enable-tests=samples. Use --enable-tests=all to build the full -test suite. - -Documentation is built separately from the source code. - -3. To use the installed RTEMS library -===================================== - -To use the installed RTEMS bsps to build applications, the application -makefile has to include a bsp-specific makefile that will define the -RTEMS variables necessary to find include files and libraries. The -bsp-specific makefile is installed at - - $(RTEMS_MAKEFILE_PATH)/Makefile.inc - -For the erc32 bsp installed at /usr/local/cross, the environment -variable RTEMS_MAKEFILE_PATH would be set as follows to the -following: - -/usr/local/cross/sparc-rtems/rtems/erc32/Makefile.inc - -4.

Makefile structure -===================== - -The makefiles have been re-organized. Most gnu-based bsps now use three -main makefiles: - + custom/default.cfg, - + custom/bsp.cfg and - + compilers/gcc-target-default.cfg. - -Default.cfg sets the default values of certain common build options. - -Bsp.cfg set bsp-specific build options and can also override the -default settings. - -Gcc-target-default.cfg contains the common gcc definitions. - -6. Adding a bsp -=============== - -Please refer to the BSP and Device Driver Guide. - - -7. Tested configurations -======================== - -All gnu-based bsps have been built on Linux. - -8. Prerequisites -================ - -Gawk version 2 or higher. -GNU make version 3.72 or higher. -Bash. -gcc version > 2.8 - -NOTE: These prerequisites are probably out of date but autoconf should detect - any problems. -- cgit v1.2.3
