Compiling NuttX Applications - nodesign/weio GitHub Wiki
Create one dir to hold NuttX RTOS kernel (called nuttx by convention) and apps (called apps):
mkdir nuttx-top
cd nuttx-top
In the end (when you git clone, as explained in chapters below), you will have a structure like this:
nuttx-top
|
+----+----+
| |
nuttx/ apps/
git clone https://bitbucket.org/patacongo/nuttx.git nuttx
cd nuttx
git submodule init
git submodule update
cd ..
git clone https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/apps.git
Start by reading README here: https://bitbucket.org/patacongo/nuttx
Get them here: http://ymorin.is-a-geek.org/projects/kconfig-frontends
Should be straightforvard ./configure, make, make install procedure, in case of problems consult documentation here: https://bitbucket.org/patacongo/nuttx
This one is used before the build to do the pre-defined board defconfig. You can see the list of existing board configs in nuttx/configs dir, or here: https://bitbucket.org/nuttx/boards/src

====================================
<drasko> nsh> hello
<drasko> nsh: hello: command not found
<patacongo_> try mount -t binfs /bin
<patacongo_> sim/nsh has the binfs enabled any you must do that first
<patacongo_> ls /bin
<patacongo_> echo $PATH
Example of usage:

====================================
<drasko> How do you exit simulator?
<patacongo_> Control C does not work with the simulator because the terminal is in raw mode.
<patacongo_> I usually just do nsh> mw 0
<patacongo_> that will get you out with a memory fault (assuming that address 0 is not readable)
<patacongo_> Otherwise, use some other garbage address
In practice:
nsh> mw 0
Segmentation fault
