Rust support for miosix OS

Miosix-oxidation

Welcome to miosix-oxidation! Rust experimental miosix support

Status

Many feature are currently being worked on, here is a list showing what you can/cannot use:

feature	status
core	working
std::time	working
std::alloc	working
std::fs	working (mostly)
std::io	working
panic!	stops and does nothing
main()	no way
miosix bindings	not yet
everything else	doesn't work

The rule of thumb is: if it shouldn't work on miosix, then it doesn't (even if the compiler says otherwise).

Also the currenlty supported targets:

• thumbv7em-miosix-eabihf

Usage

To compile this test you will need to have a special version of rustc installed that supports miosix as a target.

1. Check rust for building requirements

2. Clone the source with git

   git clone https://github.com/Tazdevil971/rust.git
   cd rust

3. Copy the build configuration

   cp config.toml.example config.toml

4. Build

   ./x.py build library/std

5. Load the new toolchain

   rustup toolchain link miosix build/<target>/stage1

   Where <target> is you host machine target

6. Select the new toolchain as the default one

   rustup default miosix

7. Go and experiment with the new compiler!

Structure

Here is a quick overview of the project components:

• rust: Contains a patched version of the rust compiler with support for miosix targets
• libc: Fork of libc containing definitions for miosix libc types
• cc-rs: Fork of cc-rs containing support for miosix targets and miosix toolchain
