Sometimes we don't want the delay in the device's startup.
I used a simple flag, but now it also occurs to me that we could
instead make the wait time a define, and set it to 0 to disable it.
This will un-break examples that got confused by the presence of
two Nordic UART Services. It also adds a version characteristic
that gives the CircuitPython build tag back.
Fixes#5252
There is a race between when we run background tasks and when we
sleep. If an interrupt happens between the two, then we may delay
executing the background task. On some ports we checked this for
TinyUSB already. On iMX RT, we didn't which caused USB issues.
This PR makes it more generic for all background tasks including
USB.
Fixes#5086 and maybe others.
* The new nonstandard '%S' format takes a pointer to compressed_string_t
and prints it
* The new mp_cprintf and mp_vcprintf take a format string that is a
compressed_string_t
By storing "count of words by length", the long `wends` table can be
replaced with a short `wlencount` table. This saves flash storage space.
Extend the range of string lengths that can be in the dictionary.
Originally it was to 2 to 9; at one point it was changed to 3 to 9.
Putting the lower bound back at 2 has a positive impact on the French
translation (a bunch of them, such as "ch", "\r\n", "%q", are used).
Increasing the maximum length gets 'mpossible', ' doit être ',
and 'CircuitPyth' at the long end. This adds a bit of processing time
to makeqstrdata. The specific 2/11 values are again empirical based on
the French translation on the adafruit_proxlight_trinkey_m0.
Call `supervisor.disable_ble_workflow()` and the BLE workflow will
be disabled until the chip is reset.
This also includes a couple fixes:
1. Terminals can now be deinit by setting the tilegrid to NULL. This
prevents using the tilegrid before display is init.
2. Fix BLE serial send amount when sending more than a single packet.
Fixes#5049
nRF CircuitPython boards will now provide the file transfer
service defined here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE_File_Transfer
USB capable boards will only advertise if previously bonded to a
device or if the reset button is pressed during the fast blue
flashes on start up. When pressed, the board will restart again but
the blue period will not flash.
Boards without USB will always advertise.
When previously bonded, the advertisement is private so that no
other peers can connect. If advertising publicly, the tx power is
lowered to reduce the likelihood of bonding from a distance.
This PR also fixes issues with loading identities of bonded peers
so that our address can now be resolved and we can resolve others'
addresses when scanning.
It was possible for _only_ a low allocation to be performed.
In this case, `high_head` is NULL, and the comparison
`MP_STATE_VM(first_embedded_allocation) < high_head` would fail.
Closes: #4871
