- Adjusted Device Tree Overlays for bluepill_f103rb and weact_stm32g431_core
to correctly define Modbus UART via 'modbus0' subnode with 'zephyr,modbus-serial'
compatibility, aligning with rtu_server sample.
- Prepared modbus_server.c to use the correct Device Tree node for Modbus UART.
Refactor slave_node application to support building for both bluepill_f103rb and
weact_stm32g431_core boards.
- Moved RTT-specific console and shell backend configurations from prj.conf
into board-specific .conf files (bluepill_f103rb.conf).
- Configured USART2 as console/shell for weact_stm32g431_core.
- Added Device Tree Overlay for weact_stm32g431_core to enable USART1 for Modbus
communication (PA9/PA10).
- Integrate the Zephyr Settings subsystem to persist Modbus parameters.
- Use NVS (Non-Volatile Storage) as the backend with a dedicated flash partition.
- Modbus baudrate and slave ID are now loaded at startup.
- Changes made via the shell are saved to flash and survive a reboot.
- Add a 'reset' command to the shell for easier testing.
- Fix all compiler and devicetree warnings for a clean build.
- Implement a new 'modbus' command in the shell.
- Add sub-commands 'set_baud', 'set_id', and 'show'.
- Add validation for baud rate and slave ID inputs.
- The new parameters are applied to the Modbus server at runtime, allowing for live reconfiguration of the communication settings.
- The shell backend is set to RTT.
The Modbus server was previously unstable, leading to intermittent CRC errors when polled by a master. This was caused by the main thread exiting after initialization, which created timing and race condition issues for the interrupt-driven Modbus stack.
This fix ensures the main thread continues to run in a low-power sleep loop (). This provides a stable context for the Modbus server, resolving the CRC errors and ensuring reliable communication.
- Add a basic Modbus RTU server implementation based on Zephyr samples.
- Configure usart1 for Modbus via a board overlay.
- The server initializes and runs, but polling with mbpoll results in a timeout.
- This commit captures a functional but non-working state for further debugging.
