It wasn't being run due to a rework done only on the atmel-samd port.
The rework itself isn't needed now that the heap check triggers safe
mode instead of throwing a Python exception. So, I've removed the
rework.
This creates a common safe mode mechanic that ports can share.
As a result, the nRF52 now has safe mode support as well.
The common safe mode adds a 700ms delay at startup where a reset
during that window will cause a reset into safe mode. This window
is designated by a yellow status pixel and flashing the single led
three times.
A couple NeoPixel fixes are included for the nRF52 as well.
Fixes#1034. Fixes#990. Fixes#615.
The backtrace cannot be given because it relies on the validity
of the qstr data structures on the heap which may have been
corrupted.
In fact, it still can crash hard when the bytecode itself is
overwritten. To fix, we'd need a way to skip gathering the
backtrace completely.
This also increases the default stack size on M4s so it can
accomodate the stack needed by ASF4s nvm API.
This started while adding USB MIDI support (and descriptor support is
in this change.) When seeing that I'd have to implement the MIDI class
logic twice, once for atmel-samd and once for nrf, I decided to refactor
the USB stack so its shared across ports. This has led to a number of
changes that remove items from the ports folder and move them into
supervisor.
Furthermore, we had external SPI flash support for nrf pending so I
factored out the connection between the usb stack and the flash API as
well. This PR also includes the QSPI support for nRF.
It has a ton of pins in a Mega form-factor
This also includes a change to init the stack earlier. It fixes
a crash that occurs if the flash doesn't start correctly and the
original spot isn't reached.
This saves code space in builds which use link-time optimization.
The optimization drops the untranslated strings and replaces them
with a compressed_string_t struct. It can then be decompressed to
a c string.
Builds without LTO work as well but include both untranslated
strings and compressed strings.
This work could be expanded to include QSTRs and loaded strings if
a compress method is added to C. Its tracked in #531.
This allows for the heap to fill all space but the stack. It also
allows us to designate space for memory outside the runtime for
things such as USB descriptors, flash cache and main filename.
Fixes#754
.. this reduces stack usage in main() substantially, because
the 512 byte stack allocation will only exist during the new run_boot_py
function's duration.
Closes: #904
.. setting it based on the ad-hoc stack pointer calculation of
mp_stack_ctrl_init() meant that the stack used above main() counts
against the 1KiB safety factor that the mp_stack_set_limit call tries
to establish. It turns out, at least on M4, that over half of the
safety factor is used up by stack-above-main()!
In the case of the basics/gen_stack_overflow.py test,
which blows the stack on purpose, it turns out that gc would be called
while handling the "maximum recursion depth exceeded" error, and this
needed more stack than was left.
Closes: #900
* Introduce a python script to generate the USB descriptor instead of
a bunch of C macros. In the future, we can use this dynamically in
CircuitPython.
* Add support for detecting read-only mass storage mounts.
Fixes#377
* Revert "Read serial input as a background task so we can check for the interrupt character."
This reverts commit 046092e8a2.
* Revert "Check INTERNAL_LIBM make flag in a safer way."
This reverts commit 2b80add22f.
* atmel-samd: Remove ASF3. This will break builds.
* atmel-samd: Add ASF4 for the SAMD21 and SAMD51.
* Introduce the supervisor concept to facilitate porting.
The supervisor is the code which runs individual MicroPython VMs. By
splitting it out we make it more consistent and easier to find.
This also adds very basic SAMD21 and SAMD51 support using the
supervisor. Only the REPL currently works.
This begins the work for #178.
