Cmake Usage

Introduction

This guide documents INAV usage of the cmake build tool.

Target Defintion

A target requires CMakeLists.txt file. This file contains one of more lines of the form:

target_hardware_definition(name optional_parameters)

For example:

target_stm32f405xg(QUARKVISION HSE_MHZ 16)
  • The hardware is stm32f405xg, a F405 with a 1MiB flash
  • The name is QUARKVISION (a board that never reached production)
  • The optional parameter is HSE_MHZ 16 defining the non-default high-speed external (HSE) oscillator clock.

Hardware names

As of INAV 4.1, the following target hardware platforms are recognised:

  • stm32f405xg
  • stm32f411xe
  • stm32f427xg
  • stm32f722xe
  • stm32f745xg
  • stm32f765xg
  • stm32f765xi
  • stm32h743xi

The device characteristics for these names may be found at stm32-base.org.

Optional Parameters

The following optional parameters are recognised:

Paramater Usage
SKIP_RELEASES The target is disabled for releases and CI. It still may be possible to build the target directly.
COMPILE_DEFINITIONS "VAR[=value]" Sets a preprocessor define.
HSE_MZ value The target uses a high-speed external crystal (HSE) oscillator clock with a frequency different from the 8MHz default. The value is the desired clock, for example HSE_MHZ 24

Multiple optional parameters may be specified, for example HSE_MHZ 16 SKIP_RELEASES.

Target variations

A number of targets support multiple variants, either successive versions of the same hardware, or varations that enable different resources (soft serial, leds etc.) This is defined by adding additional target_ lines to CMakeLists.txt. For example, the OMNIBUSF4 and its multiple clones / variations, src/main/target/OMNIBUSF4/CMakeLists.txt:

target_stm32f405xg(DYSF4PRO)
target_stm32f405xg(DYSF4PROV2)
target_stm32f405xg(OMNIBUSF4)
# the OMNIBUSF4SD has an SDCARD instead of flash, a BMP280 baro and therefore a slightly different ppm/pwm and SPI mapping
target_stm32f405xg(OMNIBUSF4PRO)
target_stm32f405xg(OMNIBUSF4PRO_LEDSTRIPM5)
target_stm32f405xg(OMNIBUSF4V3_S5_S6_2SS)
target_stm32f405xg(OMNIBUSF4V3_S5S6_SS)
target_stm32f405xg(OMNIBUSF4V3_S6_SS)
# OMNIBUSF4V3 is a (almost identical) variant of OMNIBUSF4PRO target,
# except for an inverter on UART6.
target_stm32f405xg(OMNIBUSF4V3)

Adding (or removing) a source file

In the cmake system, project source files are listed in src/main/CMakeLists.txt. New source files must be added to this list to be considered by the build system.
