Bridle 3.5.0 Release Notes

This project demonstrate the integration of TiaC Systems support in open source projects, like the Zephyr RTOS, with libraries and source code for applications. It is not yet intended or supported by TiaC Systems for product development.

Highlights

  • Support for the Waveshare RP2040 board series.

  • Provide a common snippet for USB console over all boards.

Note

See the changelog and readme files in the component repositories for a detailed description of changes.

The following sections provide detailed lists of changes by component.

Build Infrastructure

Take over the new build principles from Zephyr:

  • Zephyr has moved requirements into doc folder, Bridle build directions adapted to that new behavior.

  • Enable “warning as error” for all Sphinx builder is now default.

  • Introduce sensitive filter for Sphinx builders regarding known and expected warnings.

  • Sphinx config is now fixed to v6.2 (or later).

  • Use the “docset” name as prefix to all inter-Sphinx (external) references.

  • Since Zephyr upstream creates separate dtsi files for the various memory density codes of SAM X2xfamilies, all of the boards that use the original same density model of 18 (32KiB RAM and 256KiB flash) now includes the atmel/samx2xx18.dtsi too. That are the boards: arduino_zero, seeed_xiao_samd21, seeeduino_lotus

  • Restruct and refactor the integration test cases for the helloshell sample.

  • Rename CAN driver: stm32-can to stm32-bxcan.

  • Convert all specific @usbcons board revisions to USB Console Snippet.

  • Remove all specific @uartcons board revisions.

  • Convert all active test cases to use the new Twister CLI argument --alt-config-root. Also remove the abandoned shield can_timing_adj.

  • Updated Zephyr SDK to 0.16.3. Use Zephyr CI container v0.26.5 on GitHub CI and as base image for local developer container in Vidual Studio Code.

  • Update West to 1.3.

Documentation

  1. Since Zephyr introduce its own .. zephyr:code-sample:: domain directive and even this domain will not exported to the inventory anymore, all references to Zephyr samples were converted to direct document references.

  2. Add more colorization formatter for: bold, italic, strikethrough, and underline mixed with basic colors: red, blue, green, yellow, black and white.

  3. Add colorization classes for “Hardware Feature Label” (hwftlbl) and special “Raspberry Pi Pico” signals.

  4. Add special UNICODE replacements.

  5. Update all output messages in documentation to be in sync with the upcoming Bridle version v3.5.0, based on Zephyr v3.5 (samples and tests).
