The installation documented here is on `Windows 7 64bit Professional`. Developing on Windows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RTEMS supports Windows as a development host and the tools for most architectures are available. The RTEMS Project relies on the GNU tools for compilers and debuggers and we use the simulators that come with GDB and QEMU. The Windows support for these tools varies and the RTEMS Project is committed to helping the open source community improve the Windows experience. If something is not working or supported please email the :r:list:`users`. The RTEMS Project's Windows tools are native Windows executables giving the user the best possible experience on Windows. Native Windows programs use the standard Windows DLLs and paths. Integration with standard Windows integrated development tools such as editors is straight forward. POSIX emulation environments such as Cygwin and the MSYS2 shell have special executables that require a POSIX emulation DLL and these emulation DLLs add an extra layer of complexity as well as a performance over-head. The RTEMS Project uses these POSIX emulation shells to run configure scripts that come with various open source packages such as `gcc` so they form an important and valued part of the environment we describe here. The output of this procedure forms the tools you use during your application development and they do not depend the emulation DLLs. The performance of the compiler is as good as you can have on Windows and the performance compiling a single file will be similar to that on a host like Linux or FreeBSD given the same hardware. Building the tools from source is much slower on Windows because POSIX shells and related tools are used and the POSIX emulation overhead it much much slower than a native POSIX operating system like Linux and FreeBSD. This overhead is only during the building of the tools and the RTEMS kernel and if you use a suitable build system that is native to Windows your application development should be similar to other operating systems. Windows path length is limited and can cause problems when building the tools. The standard Windows API has a ``MAX_PATH`` length of 260 characters. This can effect some of the tools used by RTEMS. It is recommended you keep the top level directories as short as possible when building the RTEMS tools and you also keep an eye on the path length when developing your application. The RTEMS built tools can handle much longer path lengths however some of the GNU tools such as those in the ``binutils`` package cannot. The release packages of the RSB are too big to build RTEMS so you need to change that path to build. The MSYS2 GNU ``make`` has problems when using the `jobs` option. The RSB defaults to automatically using as many cores as the host machine has. To get a successful build on Windows it is recommended you add the ``--jobs=none`` option to all RSB build set commands. POSIX Support ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Building the RTEMS compilers, debugger, the RTEMS kernel and a number of other 3rd party packages requires a POSIX environment. On Windows you can use Cygwin or MSYS2. This document focuses on MSYS2. It is smaller than Cygwin and comes with the Arch Linux package manager ``pacman``. MSYS2 provides MinGW64 support as well as a POSIX shell called MSYS2. The MinGW64 compiler and related tools produce 64bit native Windows executables. The shell is a standard Bourne shell and the MSYS2 environment is a stripped Cygwin shell with enough support to run the various ``configure`` scripts needed to build the RTEMS tools and the RTEMS kernel. MSYS2 is built around the ``pacman`` packing tool. This makes MSYS2 a distribution and that is a welcome feature on Windows. You get a powerful tool to manage your development environment on Windows. Python ~~~~~~ We need Python to build the tools as the RSB is written in Python and we need suitable Python libraries to link to GDB as RTEMS makes use of GDB's Python support. This place specific demands on the Python we need installed and available and MSYS2 provides suitable Python versions we can use. You need to make sure you have the correct type and version of Python installed. We cannot use the Python executables created by the Python project (python.org) as they are built by Microsoft's C (MSC) compiler. Linking the MSC Python libraries with the MinGW64 executables is not easy and MSYS provided us with a simple solution so we do not support this. MSYS2 provides two types and versions of Python executables, MinGW and MSYS and Python version 2 and 3. For Windows we need the MinGW executable so we have suitables libraries and we have to have Python vrrsion 2 because on Windows GDB only builds with Python2. You also need to install the MSYS version of Python along with the MinGW64 Python2 package. The MSYS Python is version 3 and the RSB can support version 2 and 3 of Python and it helps handle some of the long paths building GCC can generate. Installing MSYS2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MSYS2 is installed on a new machine using the MSYS2 installer found on https://msys2.github.io/. Please select the ``x86_64`` variant for 64bit support. Run the installer followin the 7 steps listed on the page. MSYS2 uses the ``pacman`` package manager. The Arch Linux project has detailed documentation on how to use ``pacman``. What is shown here is a just few examples of what you can do. Open a 64bit MSYS shell from the Start Menu: .. figure:: msys2-minw64-start-menu.png :width: 50% :align: center :alt: MSYS2 64bit Shell Start Menu The packages we require are: * python * mingw-w64-x86_64-python2 * mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc * git * bison * cvs * diffutils * make * patch * tar * texinfo * unzip .. note:: The actual output provided may vary due to changes in the dependent packages or newer package versions.

You can check the available BSPs by running the ``rtems-bsps`` command found in the to directory of the RTEMS kernel source. We build the Board Support Package (BSP) outside the kernel source tree: .. code-block:: shell /c/opt/rtems/kernel/rtems $ cd .. /c/opt/rtems/kernel $ mkdir pc686 /c/opt/rtems/kernel $ cd pc686 /c/opt/rtems/kernel/pc686 $ Configure the RTEMS kernel to build ``pc686`` BSP for the ``i386`` target with netwoeking disabled, We will build the externel libBSD stack later: .. code-block:: shell /c/opt/rtems/kernel/pc686 $ /c/opt/rtems/kernel/rtems/configure --prefix=/c/opt/rtems/4.11 \ --target=i386-rtems4.11 --disable-networking --enable-rtemsbsp=pc686 checking for gmake... no checking for make... make checking for RTEMS Version... 4.11.99.0 checking build system type... x86_64-pc-mingw64 checking host system type... x86_64-pc-mingw64 checking target system type... i386-pc-rtems4.11 checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /usr/bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking that generated files are newer than configure... done configure: creating ./config.status configure: configuring in ./tools/build ....... checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking that generated files are newer than configure... done configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating Makefile target architecture: i386. available BSPs: pc686.
