	* Many files: Rename board_led_* functions to board_autoled_* functions.
	  This makes room in the namespace to handler user LED functions

	* drivers/can.c and include/nuttx/can.h:  Fix a problem in the CAN
	  upper-half driver that occurs only for CAN hardware that support a
	  H/W FIFO of outgoing CAN messages.  In this case, there can be a
	  hang condition if both the H/W and S/W FIFOs are both full.  In that
	  case, there may be no event to awaken the upper half driver.  Add a
	  new (conditional) CAN upper half interface called can_txready() that

	* include/sys/types.h and include/nuttx/mm.h: When building on a 64-bit
	  machine, the size of size_t should be 64-bits. In general, I believe
	  that sizeof(size_t) should be the same as sizeof(uinptr_t).  mmsize_t

	  Pettit (2015-11-25).
	* drivers/loop:  Add a loop character device.  losetup() and
	  loteardown() should not be called directory from applications.
	  Rather, these functions are now available as IOCTL commands to the
	  loop driver (2015-11-25).
	* include/nuttx/net/netdev.h and several Ethernet drivers in arch/:
Gregory Nutt's avatar
Gregory Nutt committed
	  Most network drivers do not support statistics.  Those that do only
	  support them when DEBUG is enabled.  Each driver collects an
	  architecture specific set of statistics and there is no mechanism in
	  place to view those statistics.  Thus, the driver feature was mostly
	  useless.  This change standardizes the driver statistics and puts the
	  definition in the common network device structure defined in netdev.h
	  where they can be accessed by network applications.  All Ethernet
	  drivers that collect statistics have been adapted to use these common
	  statistics (2015-11-26).
	* net/net_procfs.c:  Add basic support for networking entries in the
	  procfs (2015-11-27).
	* mtd/filemtd.c and smart.c:  Add support for a /dev/smart loop device.
	  From Ken Pettit (2015-11-28).
	* sched/pthread/: CRITICAL BUGFIX: Logic was wiping out the indication

Gregory Nutt committed
	* configs/same70-xplained/netnsh:  Added and verified a network-enabled
	  NSH configuration for the SAME70-Xplained board (2015-11-20).
	* net/: Remove CONFIG_NET_PINGADDRCONF.  This was a uIP way of assigning
	  IP addresses, but is not standard and not a appropriate feature in
	  general (2015-12-01).
	* fs/procfs:  The procfs file system can now be configured so that it
	  supports a runtime registration of procfs entries with
	  CONFIG_FS_PROCFS_REGISTER=y (2015-12-01).
	* arch/arm/src/stm32/stm32_ccm_procfs.c: Is no longer a part of the

	  called telnet_initialize() registers a telnet session "factory"
	  device at /dev/telnet.  Via ioctl, the factory device can create
	  instances of the telnet character devices at /dev/telnetN to support

	* sched/signal, sched/mqueue, sched/timer, include/signal.h,
	  include/nuttx/signal, fs/aio, libc/aio, and probably other
	  directories:  Add support for the SIGEV_THREAD notification method in
	  struct sigevent.  This initial implementation will only work in the
	  FLAT build.  See the top-level TODO file for additional details
	  (2015-12-30).
	* include/nuttx/compiler.h, include/nuttx/streams.h include/stdio.h
	  include/syslog.h libc/stdio/, and libc/syslog: introduce support for
	  Atmel toolchain in-flash strings.  Atmel toolchain AVR compiler
	  provides a transparent in-flash object support using __flash and
	  __memx symbols. The former indicates to compiler that this is a flash-
	  based object.  The later used with pointer indicates that the referenced
	  object may reside either in flash or in RAM. The compiler automatically
	  makes 32-bit pointer with flag indicating whether referenced object is
	  in flash or RAM and generates code to access either in run-time. Thus,
	  any function that accepts __memx object can transparently work with RAM
	  and flash objects.
	  For platforms with a Harvard architecture and a very small RAM like AVR
	  this allows to move all constant strings used in trace messages to flash
	  in the instruction address space, releasing resources for other things.
	  This change introduces IOBJ and IPTR type qualifiers.  The 'I' indicates
	  that the object may lie in instruction space on a Harvard architecture
	  machine. For platforms that do not have __flash and __memx or similar
	  symbols IOBJ and IPTR are empty, making the types equivalent to, for
	  example, 'const char' and 'const char*'.  For Atmel compiler these will
	  become 'const __flash char' and 'const __memx char*'.  All printf()
	  functions and syslog() functions are changed so that the qualifier is
	  used with the format parameter.  From Dimitry Kloper (2016-01-05).

	  Vladimir Komendantskiy (2016-01-05).

	* tools/mkwindeps.sh: A script that coordinates use of cnvwindeps.exe
	* tools/mkdeps.c:  Deleted mkdeps.sh and mkdeps.bat.  The mkdeps

	* drivers/ioexpander/pca9555.c: Fixed a bug in the function pca9555_setbit
	  which occurs if someone tries to set one of the pins 8-15. The problem is
	  that after the check if the pin is greater than 7 the variable addr is
	  incremented and used in the Call I2C_WRITEREAD. But later in the call to
	  the I2C_WRITE buf[0] is used as address but this address is not incremented
	  as it should be. Note address does mean the address to the register in the
	  ioexpander and not the I2C address.  From Stefan Kolb (2016-01-26).
	* drivers/ioexpander/pca9555: Convert to use I2C_TRANSFER vs. I2C_WRITEREAD,
	  the former is thread safe while the latter is deprecated (2016-01-26).
