Epsilon

The base firmware image is a fork of https://github.com/numworks/epsilon including the "external" application and an API for accessing base functionality of epsilon.

The modified sources can be found here : https://github.com/Delta-NumWorks/delta/tree/external

If something goes wrong

Reinstall Omega from https://getomega.dev/, doing a device recovery from there if necessary.

Developer info

Technical concepts

  • The firmware part is just a regular application called "External", looking for a tar archive at address 0x90200000. If found, each file is displayed in a menu.
  • To launch a file, the external application fetches the firsts 4 bytes of the file, and use it as a function pointer to the address of the entrypoint. The entrypoint is then called with an array of function pointers as en API, and a pointer to a pre-allocated heap.
  • Each application is totally independent (and needs to bring it's own libc, ...). data and bss sections are allocated in ITCM RAM, and the heap is pre-allocated from epsilon. The state of the application is totally reset upon entry.
  • To build a usable tar archive, relocation needs to be done to account the real adresses in flash of the binaries. There is a script called "archive" in this repository, which calls the linker on partially linked elf, to build final correctly relocated elf files (then added to the tar archive).
  • The file in the tar must be marked as executable to be executable.
