QP-CMSIS-Pack

The QP-CMSIS-Pack project provides the files to generate an Open-CMSIS-Pack-compatible pack for the popular QP ™️ Real-Time Embedded Frameworks (RTEFs) by Quantum-Leaps

Description

With QP-CMSIS-Pack, it is possible to create packs for QP Real-Time Embedded Frameworks in both C (QP/C) and C++ (QP/C++) flavors.

The packs are targeted at ARM Cortex-M MCUs. The following ports are supported:

• Native (Bare-Metal) Ports
  • Cooperative QV Kernel
  • Preemptive Non-Blocking QK Kernel
  • Preemptive "Dual-Mode" QXK Kernel
• Ports to Third-Party RTOS
  • embOS with local sources
  • embOS with external pack
  • FreeRTOS with external pack
  • ThreadX with local sources
  • uC-OS2 with local sources

Instructions

To generate the packs, the scripts in this repo rely on Bash library for gen-pack scripts.

1. See the above link and install the prerequisites to run this library.
2. Optional:
   • Download the following packs:
     • SEGGER.CMSIS-embOS
     • ARM.CMSIS-FreeRTOS.10.5.1.pack
   • TODO: other steps to setup tools for installing pack in local cache.
3. Clone the current repo.
4. Open a bash shell cd to the folder for the desired product pack (qp or qpcpp).
5. Call the pack generation script ./gen_pack.sh
   • The script downloads sources from appropriate repositories, creates the output folder and files, performs various checks against the xml schema and file list, and finally, creates the .pack archive.
   • Subsequent runs can be called without the downloading repositories using --no-preproces switch.
   • The .pack archive is available in the output folder: qpcpp/output/Quantum-Leaps.CMSIS-QPCPP.x.y.z.pack for the QP/C++ product.

Installation

Packs can also be installed from the available releases.

The packs are installed using cpackget. Use one of the two following methods to installed the selected packs:

1. Download the packs from the available releases, then call: cpackget add <path_to_downloaded_pack/Quantum-Leaps.CMSIS-QPCPP.x.y.z.pack>
2. Specify the path of the released pack when calling cpackget: cpackget https://github.com/smartinou/QP-CMSIS-Pack/releases/download/v0.1.0/Quantum-Leaps.CMSIS-QPCPP.x.y.z.pack
