This commit adds several small items to improve the support for OTA
updates on an esp32:
- a partition table for 4MB flash modules that has two OTA partitions ready
to go to do updates
- a GENERIC_OTA board that uses that partition table and that enables
automatic roll-back in the bootloader
- a new esp32.Partition.mark_app_valid_cancel_rollback() class-method to
signal that the boot is successful and should not be rolled back at the
next reset
- an automated test for doing an OTA update
- documentation updates
This change is made for two reasons:
1. A 3rd-party library (eg berkeley-db-1.xx, axtls) may use the system
provided errno for certain errors, and yet MicroPython stream objects
that it calls will be using the internal mp_stream_errno. So if the
library returns an error it is not known whether the corresponding errno
code is stored in the system errno or mp_stream_errno. Using the system
errno in all cases (eg in the mp_stream_posix_XXX wrappers) fixes this
ambiguity.
2. For systems that have threading the system-provided errno should always
be used because the errno value is thread-local.
For systems that do not have an errno, the new lib/embed/__errno.c file is
provided.
Note: the uncrustify configuration is explicitly set to 'add' instead of
'force' in order not to alter the comments which use extra spaces after //
as a means of indenting text for clarity.
This commit consolidates a number of check_esp_err functions that check
whether an ESP-IDF return code is OK and raises an exception if not. The
exception raised is an OSError with the error code as the first argument
(negative if it's ESP-IDF specific) and the ESP-IDF error string as the
second argument.
This commit also fixes esp32.Partition.set_boot to use check_esp_err, and
uses that function for a unit test.
This commit adds an idf_heap_info(capabilities) method to the esp32 module
which returns info about the ESP-IDF heaps. It's useful to get a bit of a
picture of what's going on when code fails because ESP-IDF can't allocate
memory anymore. Includes documentation and a test.
Add -Wdouble-promotion and -Wfloat-conversion for most ports to ban out
implicit floating point conversions, and add extra Travis builds using
MICROPY_FLOAT_IMPL_FLOAT to uncover warnings which weren't found
previously. For the unix port -Wsign-comparison is added as well but only
there since only clang supports this but gcc doesn't.
Now that error string compression is supported it's more important to have
consistent error string formatting (eg all lowercase English words,
consistent contractions). This commit cleans up some of the strings to
make them more consistent.
TimeoutError was added back in 077812b2ab for
the cc3200 port. In f522849a4d the cc3200
port enabled use of it in the socket module aliased to socket.timeout. So
it was never added to the builtins. Then it was replaced by
OSError(ETIMEDOUT) in 047af9b10b.
The esp32 port enables this exception, since the very beginning of that
port, but it could never be accessed because it's not in builtins.
It's being removed: 1) to not encourage its use; 2) because there are a lot
of other OSError subclasses which are not defined at all, and having
TimeoutError is a bit inconsistent.
Note that ports can add anything to the builtins via MICROPY_PORT_BUILTINS.
And they can also define their own exceptions using the
MP_DEFINE_EXCEPTION() macro.
This commit changes the default filesystem type for esp32 to littlefs v2.
This port already enables both VfsFat and VfsLfs2, so either can be used
for the filesystem, and existing systems that use FAT will still work.
Move extmod/modbluetooth_nimble.* to extmod/nimble. And move common
Makefile lines to extmod/nimble/nimble.mk (which was previously only used
by stm32). This allows (upcoming) btstack to follow a similar structure.
Work done in collaboration with Jim Mussared aka @jimmo.
This string is recognised by uncrustify, to disable formatting in the
region marked by these comments. This is necessary in the qstrdef*.h files
to prevent modification of the strings within the Q(...). In other places
it is used to prevent excessive reformatting that would make the code less
readable.
This provides a more consistent C-level API to raise exceptions, ie moving
away from nlr_raise towards mp_raise_XXX. It also reduces code size by a
small amount on some ports.
Previous behaviour is when this argument is set to "true", in which case
the function will raise any pending exception. Setting it to "false" will
cancel any pending exception.
This modifies the signature of mp_thread_set_state() to use
mp_state_thread_t* instead of void*. This matches the return type of
mp_thread_get_state(), which returns the same value.
`struct _mp_state_thread_t;` had to be moved before
`#include <mpthreadport.h>` since the stm32 port uses it in its
mpthreadport.h file.
Make version 4.1 and lower does not allow $call as the main expression on a
line, so assign the result of the $call to a dummy variable.
Fixes issue #5426.
Instances of the slice class are passed to __getitem__() on objects when
the user indexes them with a slice. In practice the majority of the time
(other than passing it on untouched) is to work out what the slice means in
the context of an array dimension of a particular length. Since Python 2.3
there has been a method on the slice class, indices(), that takes a
dimension length and returns the real start, stop and step, accounting for
missing or negative values in the slice spec. This commit implements such
a indices() method on the slice class.
It is configurable at compile-time via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE_INDICES,
disabled by default, enabled on unix, stm32 and esp32 ports.
This commit also adds new tests for slice indices and for slicing unicode
strings.
Move webrepl support code from ports/esp8266/modules into extmod/webrepl
(to be alongside extmod/modwebrepl.c), and use frozen manifests to include
it in the build on esp8266 and esp32.
A small modification is made to webrepl.py to make it work on non-ESP
ports, i.e. don't call dupterm_notify if not available.
Implements text, rodata and bss generalised relocations, as well as generic
qstr-object linking. This allows importing dynamic native modules on all
supported architectures in a unified way.
The compile-time configuration value MICROPY_HW_RTC_USER_MEM_MAX can now be
used to define the amount of memory set aside for RTC.memory(). If this
value is configured to zero then the RTC.memory functionality is not
included in the build.
The IDF heap is more fragmented with IDF 4 and mbedtls cannot allocate
enough RAM with 16+16kiB for both in and out buffers, so reduce output
buffer size.
Fixes issue #5303.
