Hi!

Raspberry Pi organization announced the Raspberry Pi Pico (A dualcore Cortex-M0) and by coincidence I played with uf2 file format in the past days which is used by this board and many, many Adafruit boards to upload firmware in an easy way.

So as a first step in the direction of supporting the new raspberry board I can offer a small extension to fpc that creates an uf2 file in the link step of arm-embedded.

Are you guys willing to accept that patch in fpc trunk?

Michael

Yes.

The commit message for r48394 should rather acknowledge Michael Ring as patch submitter ;-)

No need to change the comment, does not matter to me....

Thanks for applying the patch, Florian!

Sorry, Michael :(

As there is (hopefully) more embedded and freertos coming to FPC trunk soon, I would like to ask for a feature.

Would it be possible to emit the -Wp definition ?
And perhaps also the -Cp definition ?

Using embedded-freertos now requires me to use a -Wp setting and a manual definition of this -Wp setting also to be used in the sources. It would be nice to magically use the Wp-setting in the sources. And perhaps the Cp-setting also.

Thanks for taking this into consideration.

This is already the case.

The parameter passed as -CpXXX is available as define CPUXXX (in addition to e.g. CPUARM) and that passed as -WpXXX as FPC_MCU_XXX (and the selected FPU (-CfXXX) is available as FPUXXX).

You can see all active defines by invoking the compiler with -vc even without passing any source file.
