Security Issues Fixed In This Release

Compatibility Concerns

Changes to Build System

Change CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and AFLAGS from Recursive to Simple Assignment

PR-1890 (commit 2caf3a69e3d60ec550980f7ba897c732e7a39df7) attempts to speed up compilation time for concurrent builds by changing assignment to makefile variables CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and AFLAGS from recursive = to simple :=. This causes these compile options to be expanded only once during the build.

If you are using NuttX on a custom board not in the NuttX repository, you may want to make a similar change to your Make.defs files. Change these recursive assignments:

CFLAGS = $(ARCHCFLAGS) $(ARCHWARNINGS) $(ARCHOPTIMIZATION) $(ARCHCPUFLAGS) $(ARCHINCLUDES) $(ARCHDEFINES) $(EXTRAFLAGS) -pipe
CXXFLAGS = $(ARCHCXXFLAGS) $(ARCHWARNINGSXX) $(ARCHOPTIMIZATION) $(ARCHCPUFLAGS) $(ARCHXXINCLUDES) $(ARCHDEFINES) $(EXTRAFLAGS) -pipe
CPPFLAGS = $(ARCHINCLUDES) $(ARCHDEFINES) $(EXTRAFLAGS)
AFLAGS = $(CFLAGS) -D__ASSEMBLY__

to simple assignments:

CFLAGS := $(ARCHCFLAGS) $(ARCHWARNINGS) $(ARCHOPTIMIZATION) $(ARCHCPUFLAGS) $(ARCHINCLUDES) $(ARCHDEFINES) $(EXTRAFLAGS) -pipe
CXXFLAGS := $(ARCHCXXFLAGS) $(ARCHWARNINGSXX) $(ARCHOPTIMIZATION) $(ARCHCPUFLAGS) $(ARCHXXINCLUDES) $(ARCHDEFINES) $(EXTRAFLAGS) -pipe
CPPFLAGS := $(ARCHINCLUDES) $(ARCHDEFINES) $(EXTRAFLAGS)
AFLAGS := $(CFLAGS) -D__ASSEMBLY__

Not Necessary to Define __NuttX__ in Make.defs

PR-2192 (commit 9208176f600d0d04446531909bf05710716a5ee4) refactors definition of the __NuttX__ preprocessor symbol to tools/Config.mk, so it is no longer necessary to define it in each board's Make.defs file.

If you are using NuttX on a custom board not in the NuttX repository, you may want to make a similar change to your Make.defs files.

Remove lines like this:

ARCHDEFINES = -D__NuttX__

Or remove -D__NuttX__ from lines like this:

CXXFLAGS += $(ARCHDEFINES) $(EXTRAFLAGS) -pipe -std=c++11 -D__NuttX__

How to Clone the Git Repository

The Apache NuttX project uses Git SCM as its version control system.

There are two primary repositories:

  • nuttx - The real time operating system itself.
  • apps - Optional applications and example programs for the operating system. You can use this repository or make your own custom one.

The main "Single Source of Truth" repositories are hosted by the ASF:

These are synchronized with repositories hosted at GitHub:

How to Contact the Community

The main forum for project communication, to ask a question, get involved, or contribute to NuttX, is our mailing list, dev@nuttx.apache.org. The list is publicly archived and searchable at https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@nuttx.apache.orgFor more information, see NuttX Community.

Enthusiastic Contributors Welcome!

NuttX is a free open-source project. If you'd like to participate, whether it's to enhance documentation (even these release notes) or dive into the nitty gritty of some low-level drivers, please join us! You can join the conversation at our dev mailing list by emailing dev-subscribe@nuttx.apache.org. The mailing list is open to the public and archived.
