Jacob Dahl eb40eed248 arch/arm/src/imxrt: Unify FlexCAN TX work and add SIOCGCANERRORS.
TX-complete and the deadline watchdog each queued their own callback on
the same work_s, and work_queue() cancels whatever is pending when a
work_s is reused, so whichever ran second was dropped: deadlines were
left set, the TX interrupt mask stayed off, or expired frames were never
aborted. Both now queue imxrt_tx_work(), which retires completions
before it aborts expired mailboxes.

Add SIOCGCANERRORS so a socket can read fault confinement, TEC/REC, a
monotonic bus error count and the RX mailbox overrun count. SIOCGCANSTATE
reports sleep/operational, not fault confinement, hence a new command.
The error count is sampled from the clear-on-read ESR1 error flags at
every driver entry rather than from ERRINT, which fires per error frame
and storms at bus rate once the bus is dead. Frames the CAN socket layer
drops for want of an IOB now count as rx_dropped in the netdev
statistics as well as in the global CAN statistics.

Tested on an i.MX RT1176 (ARK FMU-v6XRT) running PX4 with two DroneCAN
nodes: unplugging one node the ioctl reports error-passive, TEC 128,
REC 0 and a monotonic error count, matching ECR/ESR1 read over SWD at
20 Hz, while the other interface stays error-active with zero errors.

Apache NuttX is a real-time operating system (RTOS) with an emphasis on standards compliance and small footprint. Scalable from 8-bit to 64-bit microcontroller environments, the primary governing standards in NuttX are POSIX and ANSI standards. Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOSs (such as VxWorks) are adopted for functionality not available under these standards, or for functionality that is not appropriate for deeply-embedded environments (such as fork()).

For brevity, many parts of the documentation will refer to Apache NuttX as simply NuttX.

Getting Started

First time on NuttX? Read the Getting Started guide! If you don't have a board available, NuttX has its own simulator that you can run on terminal.

Documentation

You can find the current NuttX documentation on the Documentation Page.

Alternatively, you can build the documentation yourself by following the Documentation Build Instructions.

The old NuttX documentation is still available in the Apache wiki.

Supported Boards

NuttX supports a wide variety of platforms. See the full list on the Supported Platforms page.
