The two major changes in 1.15.0 are:
-
Add
tockloader local-board
support. This expands on the already existing flash-file support which enables using tockloader commands with a local binary file being treated as a board's flash, rather than an actual hardware board. This is very useful for emulated boards, where tockloader can flash the kernel and install apps to the binary file, and then the binary file can be treated as the board's flash in the emulator.The major change with the
local-board
support is the ability to configure tockloader to default to using the binary file, if no other actual board is found. This makes it so users don't have to include command line arguments each time to use tockloader this way. -
Add initial
probe-rs
support. This adds--probers
as an option for flashing a board.
This release also includes support for the kernel version kernel attribute.
