Zephyr Rtos

Zephyr RTOS Skill

Overview

This skill provides specialized support for Zephyr RTOS development, including device tree configuration, Kconfig management, and integration with Zephyr's extensive subsystems.

Capabilities

Build System

• West build system operation and configuration
• CMake integration and customization
• Multi-image builds (MCUboot + app)
• Sysbuild configuration
• Custom board definitions

Device Tree

• Device tree overlay generation
• Binding creation and modification
• Node property configuration
• Pinctrl and GPIO configuration
• Compatible string management

Kconfig Management

• Kconfig option configuration
• Fragment file organization
• Configuration dependency analysis
• Board-specific defconfig
• Application-specific prj.conf

Networking Stack

• TCP/IP stack configuration
• Socket API setup
• Network interface configuration
• MQTT, CoAP, LwM2M protocols
• Network shell commands

Bluetooth Stack

• Bluetooth LE configuration
• GATT service definition
• Bluetooth Mesh setup
• Connection management
• Advertising configuration

Power Management

• Power management framework configuration
• Device power states
• System power states
• Policy configuration

Logging and Shell

• Logging backend configuration
• Log level management
• Shell command registration
• RTT and UART backends

Secure Boot

• MCUboot integration
• Signed image generation
• Upgrade slot configuration
• Hardware security integration

Target Processes

• rtos-integration.js - Zephyr RTOS setup and integration
• secure-boot-implementation.js - MCUboot and secure boot
• ota-firmware-update.js - Firmware update with MCUboot
• low-power-design.js - Zephyr power management

Dependencies

• Zephyr SDK
• West meta-tool
• Device tree compiler (dtc)
• CMake and Ninja

Usage Context

This skill is invoked when tasks require:

• Zephyr project setup and configuration
• Device tree customization
• Networking or Bluetooth stack setup
• Power management implementation
• Secure boot with MCUboot

Example Configurations

Basic Project Structure

app/
  CMakeLists.txt
  prj.conf
  boards/
    my_board.overlay
  src/
    main.c

Device Tree Overlay

&i2c0 {
    status = "okay";
    clock-frequency = <I2C_BITRATE_FAST>;

    sensor@48 {
        compatible = "ti,tmp102";
        reg = <0x48>;
    };
};

Kconfig Fragment

CONFIG_BT=y
CONFIG_BT_PERIPHERAL=y
CONFIG_BT_DEVICE_NAME="My Device"
CONFIG_BT_GATT_DYNAMIC_DB=y
