+===================
+Run NuttX on Renode
+===================
+
+Renode (https://renode.io/) is and open source virutal development
+framework dedicated for complex embedded systems.
+
+This page contains notes on running some of NuttX boards on Renode.
+
+ARM-v7m
+=======
+
+Renode doesn't correctly handle ``SVC`` instruction escalation to HardFault
+when ``PRIMASK=1`` which crashs NuttX in the first ``up_exit()`` call.
+We can work around this problem by enabling BASEPRI::
+
+  CONFIG_ARMV7M_USEBASEPRI=y
+
+stm32f4discovery
+================
+
+``CONFIG_ARMV7M_USEBASEPRI=y`` must be set.
+
+Renode doesn't support CCM memory, so we have to disable it
+with ``CONFIG_MM_REGIONS=1``.
+
+Renode script::
+
+  using sysbus
+  $name?="STM32F4_Discovery"
+  mach create $name
+  machine LoadPlatformDescription @platforms/boards/stm32f4_discovery-kit.repl
+
+  cpu PerformanceInMips 125
+
+  $bin?=@nuttx
+
+  showAnalyzer sysbus.usart2
+
+  macro reset
+  """
+    sysbus LoadELF $bin
+  """
+
+  runMacro $reset
+
+
+Tested with ``stm32f4discovery/nsh``.
+
+nucleo-l073rz
+=============
+
+Doesn't work. No BASEPRI implementation for ``Cotex-M0`` in NuttX.
+
+nrf52840-dk
+===========
+
+Nordic UART peripheral is not supported by Renode, UARTE support
+is required (EasyDMA).
+
+stm32f746g-disco
+================
+
+``CONFIG_ARMV7M_USEBASEPRI=y`` and ``CONFIG_ARMV7M_BASEPRI_WAR=y`` must be set.
+
+Renode script::
+
+  using sysbus
+  $name?="STM32F746"
+  mach create $name
+  machine LoadPlatformDescription @platforms/boards/stm32f7_discovery-bb.repl
+
+  $bin ?= @nuttx
+
+  showAnalyzer usart1
+  showAnalyzer ltdc
+
+  macro reset
+  """
+    sysbus LoadELF $bin
+  """
+
+  runMacro $reset
+
+Tested with ``stm32f746g-disco/nsh``.
+
+Known issues:
+
+* ``stm32f746g-disco/lvgl`` - crash due to incompatible I2C our touchscreen driver
+
+nucleo-h743zi
+=============
+
+``CONFIG_ARMV7M_USEBASEPRI=y`` must be set.
+
+Renode doesn't support ``PWR_CSR1_ACTVOSRDY`` bit so we have to disable
+it with ``CONFIG_STM32H7_PWR_IGNORE_ACTVOSRDY=y``.
+
+Renode script::
+
+  using sysbus
+  mach create "nucleo_h743zi"
+  include @platforms/boards/nucleo_h753zi.repl
+
+  $bin=@nuttx
+
+  showAnalyzer sysbus.usart3
+
+  macro reset
+  """
+    sysbus LoadELF $bin
+  """
+
+  runMacro $reset
+
+Tested wtih ``nucleo-h743zi/nsh``.
