Kerogit eb41209a07 sched/clock/clock_delay: added config flag to remove weak up_udelay
While attempting to create architecture-specific implementation
of up_udelay, it was discovered that the overriding function is not
included in the final binary, the weak implementation was used instead.

Further investigation and experimentation showed that the linker
only overrides the weak implementation with the custom one if
the custom one is present in a .c source file that contains at least
one other function that is called from somewhere. Some additional
testing revealed that at least one other already present up_udelay
override (rv32m1-vega:nsh) is affected by this.

In a short mailing list discussion it was determined that this
is a likely result of using static libraries during the build process
and it was suggested to introduce configuration option that will
exclude weak implementations of the function from the build altogether.
This patch does that.

This patch does not enable this configuration option for any existing
board/chip because doing so would change its behaviour and needs
to be tested by users of the hardware.

Also changed is the static assertion in sched/clock/clock_delay.c
to not prevent building the code when architecture declares that
it does not use BOARD_LOOPSPERMSEC to determine required loop count.
BOARD_LOOPSPERMSEC is made undefined in such case.

Patch was tested by building breadxavr:nsh (identical binary by SHA256),
rv32m1-vega:nsh (identical text section) and rv-virt:nsh (text section
differs because of different ordering of functions in the binary, ostest
passed though.)

Apache NuttX is a real-time operating system (RTOS) with an emphasis on standards compliance and small footprint. Scalable from 8-bit to 64-bit microcontroller environments, the primary governing standards in NuttX are POSIX and ANSI standards. Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOSs (such as VxWorks) are adopted for functionality not available under these standards, or for functionality that is not appropriate for deeply-embedded environments (such as fork()).

For brevity, many parts of the documentation will refer to Apache NuttX as simply NuttX.

Getting Started

First time on NuttX? Read the Getting Started guide! If you don't have a board available, NuttX has its own simulator that you can run on terminal.

Documentation

You can find the current NuttX documentation on the Documentation Page.

Alternatively, you can build the documentation yourself by following the Documentation Build Instructions.

The old NuttX documentation is still available in the Apache wiki.

Supported Boards

NuttX supports a wide variety of platforms. See the full list on the Supported Platforms page.
