wolfssl/IDE/IAR-EWARM/embOS/custom_port

Steps taken to evaluate wolfSSL with the following:

Required Software for this guide:
IAR Embedded Workbench IDE - ARM v7.60.1 (or similar version)
embOS (version that supports your CPU)
wolfssl (latest version)

#----------------------------------------------------------------------------#
# SECTION 1:
# Setting up the file system
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------#

1. Browse to wolfssl/IDE/IAR-EWARM/embOS/
a. copy/paste the directory custom_port and re-name it to the CPU
you intend to target. For now we will just use the term CUSTOM_DIR
to signify a copy of the custom_port directory

#----------------------------------------------------------------------------#
# SECTION 2:
# Create wolfcrypt_lib.a
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------#

1. Open IAR Workbench -> Project -> Create New Project -> Empty Project
c. Browse to CUSTOM_DIR/wolfcrypt_lib_custom_port/ (from section 1)
d. Called it "wolfcrypt_lib" and hit "Save"

2. Go to Project -> Add Group...
a. call group wolfcrypt_sources

3. Right click on wolfcrypt_sources group -> Add -> Add Files...

4. Browse to wolfssl/wolfcrypt/src directory and select the following files:

#---------------------------------------------#
# aes.c memory.c #
# asn.c misc.c #
# chacha.c poly1305.c #
# chacha20_poly1305.c pwdbased.c #
# coding.c random.c #
# des3.c rsa.c #
# dh.c sha.c #
# dsa.c sha256.c #
# ecc.c sha512.c #
# hash.c tfm.c #
# hmac.c wc_encrypt.c #
# md4.c wc_port.c #
# md5.c #
# kdf.c #
#---------------------------------------------#

5. Once those are all added go to
Project -> Properties C/C++ Compiler -> Preprocessor (Tab)
a. In the field "Defined symbols:" add WOLFSSL_USER_SETTINGS
b. In the field "Additional include directories:"
put in this line: $PROJ_DIR$\..\..\..\..\..\
and this line: $PROJ_DIR$\..\custom_port_user_settings
#---------------------------------------------
#(Or alternately you can use the browse option to navigate to
#C:\\wolfssl and
#C:\\wolfssl\IDE\IAR-EWARM\CUSTOM_DIR\
# custom_port_user_settings\)
#(If you ever need to change or customize your build settings this
#is the file that should be modified:
#CUSTOM_DIR\custom_port_user_settings\user_settings.h)
#---------------------------------------------

7. In Project -> Options -> General Options -> Output (Tab)
Check the option for "Library" instead of "Executable"
Click "OK"

8. Go to Project -> Rebuild all (The library should build)

9. Confirm the library is now located here:
C:\\wolfssl\IDE\IAR-EWARM\CUSTOM_DIR\wolfcrypt_lib_custom_port\
Debug\Exe\wolfcrypt_lib.a

We are now set to link to this library in the evaluation project

#----------------------------------------------------------------------------#
# SECTION 3:
# Evaluate wolfcrypt tests in embOS project:
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------#


1. go to embOS website and download a trial for your platform
https://www.segger.com/downloads/embos ->
embOS trial for Cortex-M and IAR compiler

2. After downloading, extract the zip to:
C:\\wolfssl\IDE\IAR-EWARM\embOS\extract_trial_here\

3. Open IAR Workbench -> Project -> Create New Project -> Empty Project
c. Browse to CUSTOM_DIR\wolfcrypt_test_custom_port\ (from section 1)
d. Called it "wolfcrypt_test" and hit "Save"

4. Go to Project -> Options -> C/C++ Compiler -> Preprocessor (Tab)
a. Add these to the field "Defined symbols:"
DEBUG=1
__CPU-YOU-ARE-TARGETING__ (For example: __SAMV71Q21__)
WOLFSSL_USER_SETTINGS

b. Now in the field "Additional include directories:"
$PROJ_DIR$\..\..\..\..\..\
$PROJ_DIR$\..\custom_port_user_settings
#---------------------------------------------
#(Or alternately you can use the browse option to navigate to
#C:\\wolfssl and
#C:\\wolfssl\IDE\IAR-EWARM\CUSTOM_DIR\
# custom_port_user_settings\)
#---------------------------------------------

5. Go to Project -> Options -> Linker -> Library (Tab)
Add to the field "Additional libraries:"
$PROJ_DIR$\..\embOS_wolfcrypt_lib_SAMV71_XULT\Debug\Exe\wolfcrypt_lib.a
$PROJ_DIR$\..\..\extract_trial_here\Start\Lib\os7m_tlv_dp.a

6. The main project file is located here:
CUSTOM_DIR\wolfcrypt_test_custom_port\Application\runWolfcryptTests.c

7. Right Click the project name: Add -> Add Group
add a group called "Application"
8. Right Click that group and Add -> Add files
browse to the main project file in step 5 above

9. Create Groups and add files for your CPU's support. These will be .c
files found in the extracted directory in two places:

extract_trial_here\Start\BoardSupport\\\DeviceSupport
extract_trial_here\Start\BoardSupport\\\Setup
#---------------------------------------------
# For example:
# extract_trial_here\Start\BoardSupport\Atmel\SAMV71_XPlainedUltra\
# DeviceSupport
# extract_trial_here\Start\BoardSupport\Atmel\SAMV71_XPlainedUltra\Setup
#---------------------------------------------

10. To get Logging working for seeing test results:
a. Go to Project -> Options -> General Options -> Library Configuration
b. In the field "Library low-level interface implementation"
Check the radio button for Semihosted
Then in the inner field marked "stdout/stderr"
Check the radio button for "Via semihosting" and click "OK"

11. Now we're ready to build and debug the project.
a. Project -> Options -> Debugger
In the field marked "Driver" Select drop-down and choose J-Link/J-Trace
Click "OK"
b. Project -> Rebuild All
c. Connect your Cortex-M evaluation board to j-Trace and j-Trace to PC
d. Connect the micro-USB to the debug port of the Cortex-M and PC for power
e. Project -> Download and Debug

12. Once the Debug environment spawns go to View -> Terminal I/O
This is where the "printf" to stdout will be directed

13. In the Debug Menu bar look for the little square with three arrows pointing
to the right. When you mouse over it should say "GO"
Click this option and in the Terminal I/O Window you should see something
like this (depends on which functionality you set in user_settings.h)

#### NOTE 1: ####

If you are working off of a base example project and you observe memory errors
when malloc is called, make sure that the linker script has set the HEAP high
enough.
Project -> Options -> Linker -> (Config Tab) -> Linker configuration file

Check this file for __size_heap__ it is typically set to 0x200 by default.
There are places in wolfSSL that malloc as much as 4k at a time and peak usage
can be as high as 29K if using full functionality.
