Kiibohd Controller
e0a2a4806b
- Automatically downloads the kll compiler if not found - Added capability files to each of the module that currently have them - Split modules.cmake so kll.cmake could influence build targets (also needs info from modules.cmake) - Updated .gitignore for kll compiler directory - Added documentation on how to manipulate layouts using CMakeLists.txt - Cleanup of old layout files |

The Kiibohd Controller ---------------------- TODO, write some insightful/informative :P Please give authors credit for modules used if you use in a distributed product :D ---------------------- Dependencies ---------------------- Below listed are the Arch Linux pacman names, AUR packages may be required. These depend a bit on which targets you are trying to build, but the general one: - cmake (2.8 and higher) AVR Specific (Teensy 1.0/++,2.0/++) (try to use something recent, suggested versions below) - avr-gcc (~4.8.0) - avr-binutils (~2.23.2) - avr-libc (~1.8.0) ARM Specific (Teensy 3.0/3.1) (Sourcery CodeBench Lite for ARM EABI (http://www.mentor.com/embedded-software/sourcery-tools/sourcery-codebench/editions/lite-edition/) - arm-none-eabi OR - arm-none-eabi-gcc - arm-none-eaby-binutils (I've actually had some issues with Sourcery CodeBench on Linux, so I often just use these) ---------------------- Windows Setup ---------------------- Compiling on Windows does work, just it's a bunch more work. First make sure Cygwin is installed - http://www.cygwin.com/ - 32bit or 64bit is fine. Make sure the following are installed: - make - git (needed for some compilation info) - cmake - gcc-core - gcc-g++ - libusb1.0 - libusb1.0-devel Please note, I use cygwin term exclusively for any command line options. Unless mentioned otherwise use it. Do NOT use CMD or Powershell. Also install the Windows version of CMake - http://cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html This is in addition to the Cygwin version. This is an easier alternative to installing another C compiler. Add the following line to your .bashrc, making sure the CMake path is correct: echo "alias wincmake=\"PATH='/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/CMake 2.8'/bin:\"${PATH}\" cmake" >> ~/.bashrc Install the PJRC Virtual Serial Port Driver: (http://pjrc.com/teensy/serial_install.exe) Next, install the compiler(s) you want. --------- | AVR GCC | --------- You just need the Atmel AVR 8-bit Toolchain. The latest should be fine, as of writing it was 3.4.3. http://www.atmel.com/tools/atmelavrtoolchainforwindows.aspx (Atmel AVR 8-bit Toolchain 3.4.3 - Windows) Extract the files to a directory, say C:\avr8-gnu-toolchain. Then copy all the folders in that directory to the Cygwin directory. Mine is C:\cygwin64. (You can also just setup the paths, but this is faster/simpler. Might screw up your Cygwin though). ---------- | ARM EABI | ---------- Download the latest version of Mentor Graphics Sourcery CodeBench ARM EABI. http://www.mentor.com/embedded-software/sourcery-tools/sourcery-codebench/editions/lite-edition/ Look for "Download the EABI Release". Enter your info to get the download link. Select the most recent download. Then download the "IA32 Windows Installer". Use the installer and make sure you add the binaries to your path within the installer. ---------------------- Selecting Microcontroller ---------------------- This is where you select the chip you want to compile for. The build system will automatically select the compiler needed to compile for your chip. Open up CMakeLists.txt in your favourite text editor. You are looking for: ### # Chip Selection # #| You _MUST_ set this to match the microcontroller you are trying to compile for #| You _MUST_ clean the build directory if you change this value #| set( CHIP # "at90usb162" # Teensy 1.0 (avr) # "atmega32u4" # Teensy 2.0 (avr) # "at90usb646" # Teensy++ 1.0 (avr) "at90usb1286" # Teensy++ 2.0 (avr) # "mk20dx128" # Teensy 3.0 (arm) # "mk20dx256" # Teensy 3.1 (arm) ) Just uncomment the chip you want, and comment out the old one. NOTE: If you change this option, you will *need* to delete the build directory that is created in the Building sections below. ---------------------- Selecting Modules ---------------------- WARNING: Not all modules are compatible, and some modules may have dependencies on other modules. This is where the options start getting interesting. The Kiibohd Controller is designed around a set of 4 types of modules that correspond to different functionality: - Scan Module - Macro Module - Output Module - Debug Module The Scan Module is where the most interesting stuff happens. These modules take in "keypress data". A converter Scan Module will interpret a protocol into key press/releases. A matrix Scan Module may inherit from the matrix module to scan keypress from a matrix This module just has to give press/release codes, but does have some callback control to other modules depending on the lifecycle for press/release codes (this can be very complicated depending on the protocol). Each Scan Module has it's own default keymap/modifier map. (TODO recommend keymap changing in the Macro Module). Some scan modules have very specialized hardware requirements, each module directory should have at least a link to the needed parts and/or schematics (TODO!). The Macro Module takes care of the mapping of the key press/release code into an Output (USB) scan code. Any layering, macros, keypress intelligence/reaction is done here. The Output Module is the module dealing with output from the microcontroller. Currently USB is the only output protocol. Different USB output implementations are available, pjrc being the safest/least featureful one. Debug capabilities may depend on the module selected. The Debug Module enables various things like the Teensy LED on errors, debug terminal output. (TODO get true UART working in avr, not just arm) Open up CMakeLists.txt in your favourite text editor. Look for: ### # Project Modules # #| Note: This is the only section you probably want to modify #| Each module is defined by it's own folder (e.g. Scan/Matrix represents the "Matrix" module) #| All of the modules must be specified, as they generate the sources list of files to compile #| Any modifications to this file will cause a complete rebuild of the project #| Please look at the {Scan,Macro,Output,Debug}/module.txt for information on the modules and how to create new ones ##| Deals with acquiring the keypress information and turning it into a key index set( ScanModule "avr-capsense" ) ##| Uses the key index and potentially applies special conditions to it, mapping it to a usb key code set( MacroModule "buffer" ) ##| Sends the current list of usb key codes through USB HID set( OutputModule "pjrc" ) ##| Debugging source to use, each module has it's own set of defines that it sets set( DebugModule "full" ) Look at each module individually for it's requirements. There is chip/architecture dependency checking but some permutations of modules may not be tested/compile. There are also CMake options for temporarily selecting modules. But it's easier to just edit the file. e.g. cmake -DScanModuleOverride=<module name> ---------------------- Linux Building ---------------------- From this directory. mkdir build cd build cmake .. make Example output: [master]: cmake ..

This allows for you to use a generic serial terminal to debug/control the keyboard firmware (e.g. Tera Term, minicom, screen) ------- | Linux | ------- I generally use screen. You will need sudo/root priviledges if you haven't installed the 98-kiibohd.rules file to /etc/udev/rules.d screen /dev/ttyACM0 (Might be ACM1, ACM2, etc.) --------- | Windows | --------- Make sure the Teensy Virtual Serial Port driver is installed. If possible use screen (as part of Cygwin). screen /dev/ttyS3 (Might be a different file, ttyS0, ttyACM0, ttyUSB0, etc.) Gnu screen doesn't seem to echo all the characters (it works though). I believe it's a problem with stty, but I don't know how to fix it... putty works well when using DTR/DSR or RTS/CTS flow control. ---------- | Mac OS X | ---------- TODO (What is the usual device name). screen if possible.
