We are pleased to announce the Mbed OS 6.3.0 release is now available.

Summary

This release contains additional cloud connectivity integrations with examples of how to use Microsoft Azure IoT and Google Cloud IoT with Mbed OS.

We also release a new BLE integration test suite that allows both hardware vendors and developers the ability to run BLE tests as part of their development efforts.

Further changes are made to the Mbed directory structure as we prepare the code base for the new build tools we are developing.

Support is added for the Arm Musca-S1 platform, a collaboration between Arm and Samsung Foundry to create the industry’s 1st PSA Certified Arm-based Smart IoT Device demonstrator enabling secure eMRAM-enabled Root of Trust (RoT) and secure Root of Execution (RoE) IoT Device services.

Migration Guide

This section lists specific changes which are part of this release and may
need special attention.

Add RADIUS configuration options to Wi-SUN

13573

Summary of changes

Added support for external RADIUS server configuration to Wi-SUN Border Router.
Added configuration functions and .json configuration options for:

  • external RADIUS server IPv6 address
  • RADIUS shared secret.
  • RADIUS client retry trickle timer configuration. This can be used to set how fast
    the RADIUS client retries Access-Request messages to RADIUS server in case reply
    from server is not received.
    This combines following RADIUS configuration pull requests from feature-wisun:
    #13412
    #13517
    #13530

The problem is described here: #13480

Impact of changes

Fixes: #13480

Known Issues

We publish Mbed OS as a collection of modules on GitHub. Issues are raised in the specific repositories and then tracked internally. The purpose of this section is to provide a single view of the outstanding key issues that have not been addressed for this release. As such, it is a filtered and reviewed list based on priority and potential effect. Each item summarizes the problem and includes any known workarounds, along with a link to the GitHub issue (if applicable). We welcome any comments or proposed solutions.

For more information about an issue, contact us on the forum.

TLS: IP addresses in the X.509 certificate subjectAltNames

  • Description: Parsing IP addresses in the X.509 certificate subjectAltNames is not supported yet. In certificate chains relying on IP addresses in subjectAltNames a BADCERT_CN_MISMATCH error is returned.
  • Workaround: merge branch https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/tree/iotssl-602-san-ip into your copy of Mbed TLS before building the application. It is still in EXPERIMENTAL stage, use it on your own responsibility!
  • Reported Issue: Issue reported by a customer in email.
  • Priority: MAJOR

TLS: Mismatch of root CA and issuer of CRL not caught

  • Description: The x509_crt_verifycrl() function ignores the CRL, when the CRL has an issuer different from the subject of root CA certificate.
  • Workaround: Make sure that the issuer of the CRL and the root CA certificate's subject are the same before passing them to x509_crt_verifycrl().
  • Reported Issue: Reported by a partner.
  • Priority: MAJOR

TLS: Self Test Failure with Some Hardware Accelerators

  • Description: Most HW acceleration engines (if not all) require the parameters to be from contiguous memory.
    All the self tests use test vectors that are defined in the .bss section, which means these are not contiguous. This causes the self test to possibly fail, when implementing HW accelerated engines.
  • Workaround: There are no known workarounds.
  • Reported Issue: Reported by the development team.
  • Priority: MAJOR

TLS: Hardware-accelerated hash creates CBC padding oracle in TLS

  • Description: The current countermeasures against CBC padding oracle attacks in Mbed TLS call a low level internal API. The implementation of this API might not be possible with the hardware accelerator API and even if it is, the timing might still have detectable differences. The lower level API is called out of sequence and accelerators that are not aware of this might crash.
  • Workaround: Keep MBEDTLS_SSL_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC enabled in mbedtls/config.h and enable the Encrypt-then-MAC extension (RFC7366) on the peers side.
  • Reported Issue: Reported by the development team.
  • Priority: MAJOR

Crypto: Mbed OS ATECC608A example fails to build with IAR

  • Description: The current ATECC608A secure element example fails to build with the IAR toolchain. The Microchip-provided cryptoauthlib library does not build with IAR.
  • Workaround: Use a different toolchain, like GCC_ARM.
  • Reported Issue: MicrochipTech/cryptoauthlib#116
  • Priority: Minor

Tools: Error when running mbed test --compile/run list

  • Description: The error, "pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'mbed-ls==1.*,>=1.5.1' distribution was not found and is required by icetea, mbed-flasher" is observed when running the command "mbed test -m K64F -t ARM --icetea --compile-list -vv".
  • Workaround: None
  • Reported Issues: #8064
  • Priority: Major

Wi-SUN Hardfaults with IAR compiled image with Mbed OS 5.15.0

  • Description: Mesh Wi-SUN FAN may HardFault in rare occasions with IAR8 compiled binaries during initial network connection.
  • Workaround: The workaround is to use other compilers.
  • Reported Issue: IOTTHD-3898
  • Priority: Major

Test Report

Release automated CI test

In addition to regular Pull Request test and Nightly test, we also ran a branch test on mbed-os 6.3.0-RC2

Results for the tests we run on CI (PR, Nightly, Branch):

  • Compilation tests: ARMC6 - SOME FAILS
  • Compilation tests: GCC_ARM - ALL PASSED
  • Unittest - ALL PASSED
  • Greentea Test - SOME FAILS
  • Example Test - ALL PASSED
  • Exporter Test - SOME FAILS
  • Cloud Client integration Test - ALL PASSED
  • Memory Usage Test - ALL PASSED
  • Wisun Mesh Test - ALL PASSED

We have the following issues on the test jobs:

  • IOTCORE-1717 - ARMC6 Failed to build mbed OS with LTO options
  • IOTCORE-1663 - Nightly: Export uvision failing with missing context fault handler
  • IOTSTOR-1032 - NUCLEO_F767ZI failed with features-storage-tests-kvstore-general_tests_phase_1&2
  • MBOTRIAGE-2756 - CY8CPROTO_062_4343W failed at cordio-tests-cordio_hci-driver Greentea Test
  • IOTPAN-662 - NUCLEO_F303RE targets failed in nightly test with WIFI-SCAN test

Test Numbers

  • Greentea test number 1495 (+0)
  • Unittest number 735 (+0)

Toolchain Coverage

In the mbed OS 6.2.0 release. we are testing the following toolchains:

  • ARM compiler 6.14.0
  • GCC_ARM 9-2019-q4-major

The following toolchains have been dropped since the mbed OS 5.15.0 release

  • ARM compiler 5.06 update 6
  • IAR 8.42

Targets Coverage

In mbed OS 6.3.0, the compilation test targets scope has not changed and remains all mbed OS enabled targets.

Greentea test targets have been changed slightly:

At the time of the mbed-os 6.3.0 release, we run the greentea tests on the following 8 targets:

  • NRF52840_DK
  • DISCO_L457VG_IOT01A
  • K64F
  • K66F
  • NUCLEO_F411RE
  • NUCLEO_F429ZI
  • NUCLEO_F767ZI
  • CY8CPROTO_062_4343W

Coverity

The number of total issues increased from 92 to 108, and high impact issues increased from 35 to 49.
This is thought to be mainly caused by the restructuring of the mbed-os folders.

Code Coverage

Test Code Coverage been tracked and information is published on COVERALLS
