Added a success criteria to each example in teensy4-examples
. All examples work as expected. Examples that rely on PITs require imxrt-rs/imxrt-rs#28.
Pushed updates to the HAL and PAC on crates.io, incrementing the patch number in the versions. The updates just change the description to say that the crates are either unmaintained or deprecated.
Removed all PAC and HAL source code, and updated the docs, on a separate branch.
As part of separating the imxrt-rs components from the Teensy 4 components, I'm also removing the imxrt1062-fcb-gen
crate. The successor is the imxrt-boot-gen
crate. I deprecated the original crate on crates.io a few weeks ago. The successor has a similar interface, and may be extended for additional iMXRT processors.
imxrt1062-fcb-gen
, and update teensy4-fcb
to the successor.
49 describes the Rust register access layer (RAL), an alternative API for accessing processor registers, differing from what's supported by
svd2rust
. We found that a RAL-based hardware abstraction layer (HAL) builds much faster than it's peripheral-access crate (PAC) approach (#48). Additionally, the auto-generated RAL supports all iMXRT processor variants, which isn't easy to achieve with currentsvd2rust
and PAC tooling. Given its benefits, we started to port the HAL to use the RAL in imxrt-rs/imxrt-rs#8. Once complete, the HAL should be faster to build and more easily extend for other iMXRT variants. The new HAL provides nearly the same API as the HAL in this repository, so it should be trivial to adoptThe new HAL is available at imxrt-rs/imxrt-rs, and we will not continue to develop the
imxrt1062-hal
in this repository. Since we won't maintain the HAL, and since the RAL solves many of the shortcomings of the PAC, we will no longer maintain theimxrt1062-pac
, its subcrates, and its associated tooling in this repository. Finally, since we're deprecating the HAL, we will need to migrate the Teensy 4 BSP to use the new HAL.The work will occur on the
feature/imxrt-hal
branch, where we've started to migrate the BSP to the new HAL.imxrt1062-hal
on crates.io. We could post its deprecation in the description, and recommend that users use theimxrt-hal
with the appropriate feature flag.imxrt1062-fcb-gen
crate. Update theteensy4-fcb
crate to use theimxrt-boot-gen
crate, the successor to theimxrt1062-fcb-gen
crate.
