# CMSIS Version 5

The branch *master* of this GitHub repository contains the CMSIS Version 5.6.0.  The [documentation](http://arm-software.github.io/CMSIS_5/General/html/index.html) is available under http://arm-software.github.io/CMSIS_5/General/html/index.html

Use [Issues](https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_5#issues-and-labels) to provide feedback and report problems for CMSIS Version 5. 

**Note:** The branch *develop* of this GitHub repository reflects our current state of development and is constantly updated. It gives our users and partners contiguous access to the CMSIS development. It allows you to review the work and provide feedback or create pull requests for contributions.

A [pre-built documentation](http://www.keil.com/pack/doc/CMSIS_Dev/index.html) is updated from time to time, but may be also generated using the instructions under [Generate CMSIS Pack for Release](https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_5#generate-cmsis-pack-for-release).

## Implemented Enhancements
 - CMSIS-Core-A, RTX5: implementation for Cortex-A5/A7/A9
 - Support for Armv8-M Architecture (Mainline and Baseline) as well as devices Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33
 - CMSIS-RTOS2: RTX 5 is now available for IAR, GCC, Arm Compiler 5, Arm Compiler 6
 - CMSIS-RTOS2: FreeRTOS adoption (release) is available https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS-FreeRTOS
 - CMSIS-NN: Bare metal Neural Network function library.
 - CMSIS-DAP v2: with WinUSB for faster communication and separate pipe for SWO support
 - Config Wizard extension: access enum’s for configuration information 
 - CMSIS-Pack: [Git workflow](https://arm-software.github.io/CMSIS_5/Pack/html/element_repository.html) via Eclipse menu *Window - Perferences - CMSIS Packs - Manage Local Repositories* and [MDK](http://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/uv4/uv4_ca_packinst_repo.htm)
 - CMSIS-Pack: [Flash algorithm via debugger](https://arm-software.github.io/CMSIS_5/Pack/html/pdsc_family_pg.html#element_flashinfo) as some TurstZone enable devices cannot execute RAM.
 
## Further Planned Enhancements
 - CMSIS-Zone: resource management for multi-core and access protection - [see here for pre-release](https://community.arm.com/developer/tools-software/tools/b/tools-software-ides-blog/posts/configuring-armv8-m-systems-with-cmsis-zone)
 - CMSIS-Pack:
   - System Description SDF Format: describe more complex debug topologies than with a Debug Description in a tool agnostic way
   - CPDSC project file format: allows project templates that are agnostic of an IDE
   - Minimize need for IDE specific settings: CMSIS-Pack supports IDE specific parameters. Analyze and minimize 
 - CMSIS-Build: command-line driven make system for CMSIS-Pack based projects (to support CI tests)

## Generate CMSIS Pack for Release

This GitHub development repository contains already pre-built libraries (stored in Git-LFS) of various software components (DSP, RTOS, RTOS2).
These libraries are validated for release. Git-LFS needs to be installed to retrieve the actual binary files, please see https://git-lfs.github.com/.

To build a complete CMSIS pack for installation the following additional tools are required:
 - **doxygen.exe**    Version: 1.8.6 (Documentation Generator)
 - **mscgen.exe**     Version: 0.20  (Message Sequence Chart Converter)
 - **7z.exe (7-Zip)** Version: 16.02 (File Archiver)
 
Using these tools, you can generate on a Windows PC:
 - **CMSIS Software Pack** using the batch file **gen_pack.bat** (located in ./CMSIS/Utilities). This batch file also generates the documentation.
  
 - **CMSIS Documentation** using the batch file **genDoc.bat** (located in ./CMSIS/Doxygen). 

The file ./CMSIS/DoxyGen/How2Doc.txt describes the rules for creating API documentation.
