o Task/Scheduler (sched/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: When a tasks exits, shouldn't all of its child pthreads also be
               terminated?
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium, required for good emulation of process/pthread model.

  Description: atexit() supports registration of one function called on exit().
               Should task_delete() also cause atexit() function to be called?
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low, task_delete() is non-standard and its behavior is
               unspecified.

  Description: Implement sys/mman.h and functions
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Implement sys/wait.h and functions.  Consider implementing wait,
               waitpid, waitid.  At present, a parent has no information about
               child tasks.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Several APIs do not set errno.  Need to review all APIs.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium, required for standard compliance (but makes the
               code bigger)

  Description: socket descriptors are not cloned as are file descriptors
               by task_create().
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium-to-High

o Dynamic Loader
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: At some point in the future, I intend to port the XFLAT
               dynamic loader into NuttX (see http://xflat.sourceforge.net/).
               That would allow NuttX to dynamically load and link
               external code in a mounted filesystem.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low, Nice feature and I might do it someday

o Memory Managment (mm/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Add an option to free all memory allocated by a task when the
               task exits. This is probably not be worth the overhead for a
               deeply embedded system.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium/Low, a good feature to prevent memory leaks but would
               have negative impact on memory usage and code size.

  Description: Current logic adapts size_t for 16-bit address machines vs.
               32-bit address machines.  But a small memory option should also
               be provided so that the small offset option can be used with
               32-bit machines that have small RAM memories (like the lpc2148)
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    High, a good feature enhancement.

o Signals (sched/, arch/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: 'Standard' signals and signal actions are not supported.
               (e.g., SIGINT, SIGCHLD, SIGSEGV, etc).
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low, required by standards but not so critical for an
               embedded system.

o pthreads (sched/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: pthread_cancel():  Should implement cancellation points and
               pthread_testcancel()
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low, probably not that useful

o C++ Support
  ^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Need to call static constructors
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low, depends on toolchain.  Call to gcc's built-in static
               constructor logic will probably have to be performed by
               user logic in user_start().

o Network (net/, netutils/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Several of the netutils/ apps are untested.  These include
               uIP's netutils/smtp, dhcpd, resolv, webclient.  Only minimal
               testing of the others has been performed.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium, Important but not core NuttX functionality

  Description: Should implement SOCK_RAW, SOCK_PACKET
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: uIP polling issues / Multiple network interface support:
               (1) Current logic will not support multiple ethernet drivers.
                  Each driver should poll on TCP connections connect on the
                  network supported by the driver; UDP polling should respond
                  with TX data only if the UDP packet is intended for the
                  the network supported by the driver.
               (2) If there were multiple drivers, polling would occur at
                  double the rate.  Fix by using bound IP address in TCP
                  connection (lipaddr) and verifying that it is in the subnet
                  served by the driver.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium, The feature is not important, but it is important
               for NuttX to resolve the architectural issues.

  Description: Sendoto() and multiple network interface support:
               When polled, would have to assure that the destination IP
               is on the subnet served by the polling driver.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium, The feature is not important, but it is important
               for NuttX to resolve the architectural issues.

  Description: IPv6 support is incomplete.  Adam Dunkels has recently announced
               IPv6 support for uIP (currently only as part of Contiki).  Those
               changes need to be ported to NuttX.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: Incoming UDP broadcast should only be accepted if listening on
               INADDR_ANY(?)
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Read-ahead buffers capture incoming TCP data when no user
               thread is recv-ing the data.  Should add some driver call to
               support throttling; when there is no listener for new data, the
               driver should be throttled.  Perhaps the driver should disable
               RX interrupts when throttled and re-anable on each poll time.
               recvfrom would, of course, have to un-throttle.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: Need to standardize collection of statistics from network
               drivers.  examples/nsh ifconfig command should present
               statistics.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Outgoing packets are dropped and overwritten by ARP packets
               if the destination IP has not been mapped to a MAC.  Could
               improve send() performance by explicitly performing ARP before
               sending the packet.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: Port PPP support from http://contiki.cvs.sourceforge.net/contiki/contiki-2.x/backyard/core/net/ppp/
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: At present, there cannot be two concurrent active TCP send
               operations in progress using the same socket.  This is because
               the uIP ACK logic will support only one transfer at a time.  The
               solution is simple: A mutex will be needed to make sure that each 
               send that is started is able to be the exclusive sender until all of
               the data to be sent has been ACKed.
  Status:      Open.  There is some temporary logic to examples/nsh that does
               this same fix and that temporary logic should be removed when
               send() is fixed.
  Priority:    Medium-Low.  This is an important issue for applications that
               send on the same TCP socket from multiple threads.

  Description: TCP supports read-ahead buffering to handle the receipt of
               TCP/IP packets when there is no read() in place.  Should such
               capability be useful for UDP?  PRO: Would reduce packet loss
               and enable support for poll()/select().  CON: UDP is inherently
               lossy so why waste memory footprint?
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: poll()/select() is not implemented for UDP sockets because they do
               do not support read-ahead buffering.  Therefore, there is never
               a case where you can read from a UDP socket without blocking.
  Status:      Open, depends on UDP read-ahead support
  Priority:    Medium

o USB (drivers/usbdev)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: The USB bulk storage class driver configuration (examples/usbstorage)
               does not work reliably when debug is disabled (CONFIG_DEBUG+CONFIG_DEBUG_VERBOSE
               +CONFIG_DEBUG_USB) on WinXP (Linux appears to be fine).  A race condition would
               would be a possibility.  The symptom is that that WinXP sends a MODE SENSE (6)
               command with an unsupported mode page (0x1c/0x00)
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    High

o Libraries (lib/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: sscanf() and lib_vsprintf() do not support floating point
               values.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: The definition of environ in stdlib.h is bogus and will not
               work as it should.  This is because the underlying
               representation of the environment is not an arry of pointers.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: fgets implementation does not use C-buffered I/O, but rather
               talks to serial driver directly via read().  It includes VT-100
               specific editting commands.  This gets should be renamed readlin()
               and a more generic fgets() should be implemented.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low (unless you are using mixed C-buffered I/O with fgets and
               fgetc, for example).

  Description: Need some minimal termios support... at a minimum, enough to
               switch between raw and "normal" modes to support behavior like
               that needed for readline().
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

o File system / Generic drivers (fs/, drivers/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Implement chmod(), truncate().
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: FAT: long file names
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: The CAN driver is untested.  Add a test for the CAN driver.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: At present, the CAN driver does not support the poll() method.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: There is no way to remove a FIFO or PIPE created in the
               psuedo filesystem.  Once created, they persist indefinitely
               and cannot be unlinked.  This is actually a more generic
               issue:  unlink does not work for anything in the psuedo-
               filesystem.
  Status:      Open, but partially resolved: pipe buffer is at least freed
               when there are not open references to the pipe/FIFO.
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: The ROMFS file system does not verify checksums on either
               volume header on on the individual files.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low.  I have mixed feelings about if NuttX should pay a
               performance penalty for better data integrity.

  Description: FAT: FAT32 is untested -- because I don't have any large
               enough devices yet to support a FAT32 FS.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: The simple SPI based MMCS/SD driver in fs/mmcsd does not
               yet handle multiple block transfers.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium-Low

o Graphics subystem (graphics/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: If CONFIG_NX is enabled, the build fails the first time
               saying that there is "No rule to make target..." for one of the
               auto-generated graphics files.  This is a nuisance, but if you
               simply build again (with the source files already auto-generated)
               the problem does not reoccur.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low, the work-around is simple

  Description: Testing of all APIs is not complete.  See
               http://nuttx.sourceforge.net/NXGraphicsSubsystem.html#testcoverage
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

o Pascal Add-On (pcode/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Need APIs to verify execution of P-Code from memory buffer.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Loader and object format may be too large for some small
               memory systems.  Consider ways to reduce memory footprint.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

o Documentation (Documentation/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Document driver/ logic
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Document C-library APIs
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

o Build system
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Some names under arch are still incorrect.  These should be
               processor architecture names:  pjrc-8051 should be 805x
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: configs/pjrc-8051 should be configs/pjrc-87c52
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Dependencies do not work correctly under configs/<board>/src
               (same as arch/<arch>/src/board).
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium (maybe higher for z80 target)

  Description: It would be nice to de-couple some of the behaviors enabled by
               CONFIG_DEBUG.  For example, CONFIG_DEBUG turns on debug output,
               but also disables optimization make the binary much bigger.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low.  There workaround is easy.. just edit the configuration's
               Make.def file to control the behavior that you want.

  Description: Need a NuttX configuration tool.  The number of configuration
               settings has become quite large and difficult to manage manually.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium-low

  Descripton   I am having trouble using the newer gcc 4.2.4 + binutils 2.19
               toolchain for ARM.  The problem is in arch/arm/src/Makefile:
               In the call to objcopy to relocate the .data section, arm-elf-objcopy
               dies with a 'Floating point exception'  No clue to the cause yet.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium-Low -- workaroung, stick with the 3.4.6 toolchain

o NuttShell (NSH) (examples/nsh)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: When the telnetd front end is received, each TCP packet
               received causes a prompt (nsh >) to be presented.  The
               prompt should only be presented when the user enters a
               carriage return.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: Here are some commands that would be good to have in NSH:
               ping
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

o Other Applications & Tests (examples/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: The redirection test (part of examples/pipe) terminates
               incorrectly on the Cywgin-based simulation platform (but works
               fine on the Linux-based simulation platform).

o Linux/Cywgin simulation (arch/sim)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: The simulated serial driver has some odd behavior.  It
               will stall for a long time on reads when the C stdio buffers are
               being refilled. This only effects the behavior of things like
               fgetc().  Workaround: Set CONFIG_STDIO_BUFFER_SIZE=0, suppressing
               all C buffered I/O.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low (because the simulator is only a test/development platform)

o ARM (arch/arm/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: ARM interrupt handling performance could be improved in many
               ways.  One easy way is to use a pointer to the context save
               area in current_regs instead of using up_copystate so much.
               see handling of 'current_regs" in arch/sh/src/common/* for
               examples of how this might be done.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: The ARM interrupt handler restores all regisers upon return.
               This could be improved as well:  If there is not context
               switch, then the static registers need not be restored
               because they will not be modified by the called C code.
               (see arch/sh/src/sh1/sh1_vector.S for example)
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

o ARM/C5471 (arch/arm/src/c5471/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: UART re-configuration is untested and conditionally compiled out.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium.  ttyS1 is not configured, but not used; ttyS0 is configured
               by the bootloader

o ARM/DM320 (arch/arm/src/dm320/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: config/ntos-dm320: It seems that when a lot of debug statements
               are added, the system no longer boots.  This is suspected to be
               a stack problem: Making the stack bigger or removing arrays on
               the stack seems to fix the problem (might also be the
               bootloader overwriting memory)
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: A USB device controller driver was added but has never been tested.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: A framebuffer "driver" was added, however, it remains untested.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: In order to use the framebuffer "driver" additional video encoder
               logic is required to setupt composite video output or to interface
               with an LCD.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium (high if you need to use the framebuffer driver)

o ARM/LPC214x (arch/arm/src/lpc214x/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Should use Vector Interrupts
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: USB DMA not fully implemented. Partial logic is in place but it is
               fragmentary and bogus.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: USB Serial Driver reports wrong error when opened before the
               USB is connected (reports EBADF instead of ENOTCONN)
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

  Description: The USB bulk storage class driver configuration (examples/usbstorage)
               does not work reliably when debug is disabled (CONFIG_DEBUG+CONFIG_DEBUG_VERBOSE
               +CONFIG_DEBUG_USB) on WinXP (Linux appears to be fine).  A race condition would
               would be a possibility.  The symptom is that that WinXP sends a MODE SENSE (6)
               command with an unsupported mode page (0x1c/0x00)
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    High

  Description: At present the SPI driver is polled.  Should it be interrupt driven?
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: At present the SPI driver is polled -AND- there is a rather large, arbitrary,
               delay in one of the block access routines.  The purpose of the delay is to
               avoid a race conditions.  This begs for a re-design -OR- at a minimum, some
               optimiation of the delay time.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

o ARM/STR71x (arch/arm/src/str71x/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Basic port is complete but untested.  Complete integration
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    High

  Description: Add SPI driver and integrate with MMC/SD support.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

  Description: Develop a USB driver and integrate with existing USB serial
               and storage class drivers.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium

o pjrc-8052 / MCS51 (arch/pjrc-8051/)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description: Current status:
               - Basic OS task management seems OK
               - Fails when interrupts enabled.  The stack pointer is around
                 0x6e before the failure occurs.  It looks like some issue
                 when the stack pointer moves from the directly to indirectly
                 addressable region (0x80 boundary).
               - Work on the 8052 is temporarily on hold
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low, 8051 is a tough platform because of the tiny stack.

  Description: Use timer 0 as system timer.  Timer 2 is needed for second UART.
               Logic is implemented, but there needs to be a system
               configuration to change the ticks-per-second value to match the
               timer interrupt rate
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Low

o Hitachi/Renesas SH-1 (arch/sh/src/sh1)
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  Description:  There are instabilities that make the SH-1 port un-usable.  The
                nature of these is not understood; the behavior is that certain SH-1
                instructions stop working as advertised.  I have seen the following
                examples:

                  412b jmp @r1 - Set a return address in PR, i.e., it behaved like
                       410b jsr @r1.  Normally 412b works correctly, but in the failure
                       condition, it reliably set the PR.
                  69F6 mov.l @r15+,r9 - wrote the value of R1 to @r15+.  This behavior
                       does not correspond to any known SH-1 instruction

                This could be a silicon problem, some pipeline issue that is not
                handled properly by the gcc 3.4.5 toolchain (which has very limit
                SH-1 support to begin with), or perhaps with the CMON debugger.  At
                any rate, I have exhausted all of the energy that I am willing to put
                into this cool old processor for the time being.
  Status:       Open
  Priority:     Low -- because the SH-1, SH7032, is very old and only of historical

  Description: The simulated Z80 serial console (configs/z80sim/src/z80_serial.c +
               driver/serial.c) does not work.  This is because there are

  Description: When the interrupt-driven serial driver is used, the system
               hangs.  This is because of TX ready (TRDE) interrupts that
               get lost while interrupts are disabled.  The existing
               serial driver appears to be limited to hardware with a
               latching, level-sensitive TX ready interrupt.
  Status:      Open
  Priority:    Medium. A polled, write-only serial driver is used in the
               interim for system testing.

  Description: At present, the z16f port does not run properly when CONFIG_DEBUG

               output.  I have isolated with problem to errors in optimization.
               With -reduceopt on the command line, I can get the printf output.
               However, there are still errors in the compiled code -- specifically
               in sched/timer_create.c.

               I have submitted a bug report to ZiLOG for this (support incident
               81400).  You can see the status of the bug report (and lots more

  Description: The pascal add-on does not work with the z16f (that is
               configuration z16f2800100zcog/pashello).  This appears to be
               another ZDS-II error:  when executing the instruction
               SYSIO 0, WRITESTR a large case statement is executed.  This
               involves a call into the ZiLOG runtime library to __uwcase().
               __uwcase is passed a pointer to a structure containing jump
               information.  The cause of the failure appears to be that
               the referenced switch data is bad.
               This is submited as ZiLOG support incident 81459.

               Summary of ZiLOG analysis: "This is a ZNEO run time library problem.
               One workaround is to replace the line 58 in uwcase.asm

               From:
                      ADD       R9,#4             ; Skip handler

               And add uwcase.asm to the project.

               If the customer does not want to modify uwcase.asm then the other
               workaround is to add a dummy case and make it same as default:

               case 0x8000:
               default:

               This will make sure that uwcase is not called but ulcase is called."
