This sample provides an empty main()
and various configuration files that
can be used to measure Zephyr's minimal ROM footprint in different
configurations.
The following configuration files are available:
- :file:`mt.conf`: Enable multithreading
- :file:`no-mt.conf`: Disable multithreading
- :file:`no-preempt.conf`: Disable preemption
- :file:`no-timers.conf`: Disable timers
- :file:`arm.conf`: Arm-specific disabling of features
The following combinations are suggested for comparing ROM sizes in different configurations. They all target the :ref:`reel_board` (Arm Aarch32 architecture).
Multithreading enabled
- Reference ROM size: 7-8KB
.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/basic/minimal :host-os: unix :board: reel_board :build-dir: reel_board/mt/ :conf: "common.conf mt.conf arm.conf" :goals: rom_report :compact:
