-ChibiOS 3.0 is now composed of several independent but inter-operable sub-projects: RT, NIL, HAL.
-
-ChibiOS 3.0 general highlights
-
-- New files tree organization makes the system more modular.
-- A community-contributed code area is now part of the files architecture, it will allow for easier integration of contributed code without much screening.
-- Improved startup files, scatter files and build system.
-- New licensing options.
-- Free ChibiStudio IDE support.
-
-What's new in RT 3.0
-
-- MISRA 2012 compliant.
-- Entirely static for enhanced safety.
-- System data is now encapsulated in a single "ch" global structure for enhanced safety.
-- System integrity check runtime functionality for enhanced safety.
-- Tick-less kernel mode helps implement ultra-low-power devices.
-- High Resolution Virtual Timers module allows to specify very short intervals.
-- High Resolution system time.
-- Clock-cycle accurate Time Measurement module.
-- Clock-cycle accurate polled delays.
-- Statistic module provides high resolution measurement of threads, ISRs and critical zones.
-- New recursive locks in addition to the classical critical zone primitives.
-- New recursive mode for Mutexes.
-- Enhanced suspend/resume mechanism for threads.
-- CMSIS-compliant ARM Cortex-Mx port.
-- CMSIS RTOS API available.
-- Multi-compilers architecture for ports.
-- Codebase now compatible with GCC link time optimizations.
-
-What's new in HAL 3.0
-
-- MISRA 2012 compliant.
-- HAL is now entirely licensed under Apache 2.0 license.
-- HAL has been decoupled from RT. It can now be adapted to any reasonable RTOS or even used with no RTOS at all thanks to a new abstraction layer named OSAL. OSAL implementations are provided for RT, NIL, bare metal ARM Cortex-Mx cores, bare metal Power e200z cores.
-- New driver models for ST, I2S, DAC.
-- Revamped ADC, ICU, PWM, RTC, SDC, USB drivers.
-- Greatly improved STM32 family support, all sub-families have been added.
-- Support for new families expanding (Kinetis, Tiva, SPC5xx, RL78, RX62N).
-- Streams, channels, files and block devices abstract interfaces.
-
-New addition NIL 1.0
-
-- MISRA 2012 compliant.
-- Entirely static for enhanced safety.
-- No linked lists anywhere in the code for enhanced safety.
-- System data is encapsulated in a single "nil" global structure for enhanced safety.
-- Tick-less kernel mode helps implement ultra-low-power devices.
-- Ultra compact kernel, well below 1kB in its maximum configuration.
-- Upward compatible with RT, it implements a subset of the RT API.
-- Reduced RAM usage, 20-28 bytes for task and just 4 bytes for a semaphore on 32 bits architectures, half of that on 8/16 bits architectures.
-- ARM Cortex-Mx port based on CMSIS architecture.
-- Multi-compilers architecture for ports.
