CAVEAT: license change from BSD to Apache2 license!
Explanation:
The imported files come from CMSIS v5 project available on:
https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_5/tree/develop
The files imported are located inside the CMSIS/Core/Include
project sub-directory.
The project does not provide any NOTICE file in its root directory nor
in the directory of the imported files.
The NOTICE file and its usage in the Apache 2 license was/is
so far the only issue mentioned in discussion of RTEMS developers/users
when considering inclusion of the code under Apache 2 license
into the RTEMS project.
Since the CMSIS v5 project is free from this legal hinder, we may freely
use it and update files to the latest version.
Technical: the patch replaces code from 2015 with the latest version
which brings quite a lot of bug fixes and most importantly opens
possibilities to support MCUs based on new ARM cores.
This adds support for the STM32H750B-DK discovery kit. This kit includes
a built-in STLINKv3 debugger which provides a USB serial bridge for
USART3. USART1 is routed to the Arduino header and USART2 is routed to
the STMOD connector. This BSP reuses what would otherwise be duplicated
files from the stm32h747i-disco BSP. Note that system_stm32h7xx.c has
been imported from the STM repository with two minor changes wrapped
with #if __rtems__. This hardware has been tested with hello and ticker.
Remove the BSP_POWER_DOWN_AT_FATAL_HALT BSP option. Applications should
do the customization of the system termination with an initial fatal
extension.
The NOR driver was not written with SMP systems and caching in mind.
This makes the IsBusy flag volatile for updates across cores and
introduces cache flushing and invalidation where necessary for data
manipulated by the DMA engine in the QSPI peripheral.
When given the exact bounds of a sector, the current algorithm
calculates that 3 sectors need to be erased. This corrects the
calculation such that only 1 sector needs to be erased for erasures that
exactly match sector boundaries.
This change causes NOR writes to be broken according to page boundaries.
Writes across page boundaries cause the writes beyond the boundary to
fail silently. This also introduces a new function that will explicitly
write pages.
