Ken Van Hoeylandt 643cbc3806 Implement posix app loading (#643)
- Added POSIX desktop support for SDK builds, application packaging, and integration testing.
- Added POSIX filesystem partitions and improved application path handling.
- Added simulator support for loading and running applications dynamically.
- Improved simulator task stack handling and display startup reliability.
- Improved simulator display scaling, resizing, high-DPI support, and pointer accuracy.
- Fixed LVGL timers and input polling on POSIX. (fixes simulator with Linux on some Intel graphics platforms)
- Standardized data paths across platforms.
- Logging now works via separate task: this allows apps to write to log without it affecting their stdout (for apps that output text as relevant date for other apps, like the File Selection app)
- Fixes for app stdio

TactilityKernel

TactilityKernel is the core component of the Tactility project, providing a hardware abstraction layer (HAL) and essential kernel services for embedded systems.

Features

  • Device and Driver Model: A flexible system for managing hardware devices and their corresponding drivers.
  • Peripheral Support: Standard interfaces for common peripherals:
    • GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output)
    • I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit)
    • I2S (Inter-IC Sound)
    • SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface)
    • UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter)
  • Concurrency Primitives: Built-in support for multi-threaded environments, including:
    • Threads and Dispatchers
    • Mutexes and Recursive Mutexes
    • Event Groups
    • Timers
  • Module System: Support for loadable modules that can export symbols and provide runtime-extensible functionality.
  • Device Tree Integration: Utilizes a devicetree-like system for hardware configuration and initialization.
  • Cross-Platform: Designed to run on both embedded platforms (such as ESP32) and desktop environments (Linux) for simulation and testing.
