This patch is a rework of the NuttX file descriptor implementation. The goal is two-fold: 1. Improve POSIX compliance. The old implementation tied file description to inode only, not the file struct. POSIX however dictates otherwise. 2. Fix a bug with descriptor duplication (dup2() and dup3()). There is an existing race condition with this POSIX API that currently results in a kernel side crash. The crash occurs when a partially open / closed file descriptor is duplicated. The reason for the crash is that even if the descriptor is closed, the file might still be in use by the kernel (due to e.g. ongoing write to file). The open file data is changed by file_dup3() and this causes a crash in the device / drivers themselves as they lose access to the inode and private data. The fix is done by separating struct file into file and file descriptor structs. The file struct can live on even if the descriptor is closed, fixing the crash. This also fixes the POSIX issue, as two descriptors can now point to the same file. Signed-off-by: Ville Juven <ville.juven@unikie.com> Signed-off-by: dongjiuzhu1 <dongjiuzhu1@xiaomi.com> |

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.
