Iotlab Continuous Integration System Firmwares

This repository contains the instructions and firmware source codes to be used with the continuous integration system of Iotlab.

The firmwares are based on RIOT operating system. Iotlab CI uses 2 different firmwares:

• idle does basically nothing and is only used to verify that the board can be flashed by the iotlab management tools;

• autotest verify basic functionalities provided by the boards:

  • echo: replies the exact serial input
  • get_time: replies the current time provided by the internal board timer. The format is ACK get_time <time> ticks_32khz. is computed by the firmware.
  • leds_on: turn on on-board LEDs using input flag (e.g 7 <=> 111 in binary, will turn on all 3 LEDs, etc)
  • leds_off: turn off on-board LEDs using input flag (e.g 7 <=> 111 in binary, will turn off all 3 LEDs, etc)

Usage

1. Build the firmwares

$ make all
git submodule update --init --recursive
make -C firmwares/autotest/ BOARD=iotlab-m3
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/harter/work/ci-firmwares/firmwares/autotest'
...
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/harter/work/ci-firmwares/firmwares/idle'
cp firmwares/idle/bin/arduino-mega2560/riot-idle.elf mega_idle.elf

$ ls *.elf
a8_autotest.elf   fox_idle.elf     mega_autotest.elf    samr21_idle.elf
a8_idle.elf       m3_autotest.elf  mega_idle.elf
fox_autotest.elf  m3_idle.elf      samr21_autotest.elf

2. Copy the firmware in the iotlab-gateway repositoty. The destination folder is iotlab-gateway/gateway-code/static.
