For users of the Atmel AT91SAM7 and AT91SAM9 ARM CPU chips. Atmel has taken a new direction by combining on chip flash and ram with the ARM CPU on a single die. This provides low cost devices for small systems using the ARM CPU. This group is to exchange information to help users get started and learn how to use the devices.
Need your support - "mansij.rm" - Oct 10 15:51:47 2009
Hi. I am a new member to this group. I have a board designed around AT91SAM7SE32 with an
external 2 MB flash and 4 MB RAM. Could anyone please tell me - which is the suitable
FREE RTOS that can work on this processor? Also, can there be a JFFS2 like file system
support in the suggested RTOS? Your reply will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mansij

Hi,
I don't know about a JFFS2 like file system, but you can take a look
at FreeRTOS (www.freertos.org, GPL) that seems very active.
Personally I've used the TNKERNEL (www.tnkernel.com) which has a
BSD-like licence on AT91SAM7S256 and AT91SAM7A3 with good results.
With best regards,
Pietro F. Maggi

...just a minor correction, FreeRTOS uses a modified GPL license, not a
standard GPL license. The big difference being that the FreeRTOS
license does not infect the application code - the kernel remains open
source but application code that just uses the kernel remains closed source.

Well, it does not seem to me a "minor correction".
Licence issue was THE thing that keep me away from FreeRTOS initially.
Thanks for the correction, I'll surely look into it.

Re: Need your support - "mansij.rm" - Oct 11 2:36:55 2009
Thanks a lot to all. One more question - is it possible to support a file system on the
external 2 MB flash connected to AT91SAM7SE32? If so, which one to use? Of course it has
to be Flash File System and not a FAT.
Thanks and Regards,
Mansij

Re: Need your support - vishnu Tadepalli - Oct 11 10:39:14 2009
Hi,
With probably 4MB of flash I think uClinux will be the best
suited,especially if you want something like JFFS2 to be supported.

Re: Re: Need your support - Charles Manning - Oct 11 19:31:23 2009
There are quite a few flash file systems available. The correct one to choose
will depend on many things, including:
1) What type of file system activity you want to support.
2) Amount of flash and ram the fs can use.
3) The RTOS/licensing you want to use.
Some file systems to look at:
* JFFS2
* YAFFS
* UFFS http://gouffs.googlepages.com/
Each of these has pros and cons and the right fit will depend on what you're
trying to do.
