๐Ÿ“ถ Air780E Compilation Guide#

This document is suitable for combined modules based on the same chip scheme.

  • Air780E

  • Air600E

  • Air780EG

  • Air700E

  • Air780EX

Preparations#

  1. Windows 10(In theory win7 can also be used, but not recommend), linux (only ubuntu verified)

  2. At least more than 5G of the remaining space, there will be a large number of temporary files

  3. If it is best to connect to the Internet, there is no solution, and it will be explained.

Download source code#

Note that two libraries are required

  • Master Library https://gitee.com/openLuat/LuatOS

  • bsp Library https://gitee.com/openLuat/luatos-soc-2022 linux compilation will have more instructions, please refer README.md

The code is updated frequently. It is recommended to use git for clone download. Zip download is not recommended..

The downloaded directory must conform to the following structure, and the directory name must be LuatOS andluatos-soc-2022.

assuming that in D:\gitee

D:\gitee\
    - LuatOS
        - lua
        - luat
        - components
    - luatos-soc-2022
        - xmake.lua
        - project
        - interface

If using zip download, be sure to correct the directory name to match the above structure!!

Prepare the tool#

Install xmake, which can be downloaded from xmakeโ€™s official website, and can be downloaded directly from this link

During installation, PATH **will be selected by default, and if not, it will be checked.

Note: Environment variables need to restart the computer to take effect

Tool chain download#

In a networked environment, xmake will download the gcc toolchain itself. If you have a normal internet connection, skip this step

Specific operation method

If you cannot connect to the Internet, or if the network is limited, you will usually have this prompt.:

error: fatal: not a git repository

Or the prompt of git/http connection failure. Therefore, the offline gcc tool chain download and compilation method is provided here.

  1. Download gcc for arm toolchain

  2. Decompress, do not select too deep a directory, do not contain Chinese characters and special symbols, it is recommended to decompress to the D disk root directory, the compression package comes with a layer of directorygcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10

  3. Assuming that the decompressed path isD:\gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10, check whether D:\gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10\bin\arm-none-eabi-g .exe exists. if it does not exist, it must be an additional directory..

  4. Use a text editor (such as vscode) to open the build.bat of the luatos-soc-2022, and modify the content as follows

The original content:
rem set GCC_PATH=E:\gcc_mcu
Modify the statement at the beginning of set. Note that rem is removed and the value is modified..
set GCC_PATH=D:\gcc-arm-none-eabi-10.3-2021.10

Start Compiling#

  1. Double-click cmd.lnk under luatos-soc-2022. . Do not use PowerShell!!

  2. In the popup cmd command line, enter the command

build luatos

The final output is as follows (roughly):

D:\github\luatos-soc-2022\PLAT\driver\chip\ec618\ap\inc_cmsis/Driver_USART.h:345:3: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type [-Wignored-qualifiers]

end

That is to say, the compilation was successful. The output soc file can be found in the out\luatos directory. You can use the LuaTools to brush the machine.

As an additional note, the soc file is a compressed package and does not represent the actual size of the firmware.!!

Common Compilation Issues#

  • Prompt network failure, git error, please refer totool chain download (offline environment)section

  • Prompt missing luat_msgbus.h files, please consult the download source, check the directory structure, and ensure that no path does not contain special characters

  • Prompt refer to xxx and other ld link errors, please update the code, both code bases need to be updated. If the error is still reported, please report issue
