This patch makes the DAC driver simpler and removes the need for the ST
HAL. As part of it, new helper functions are added to the DMA driver,
which also use direct register access instead of the ST HAL.
Main changes to the DAC interface are:
- The DAC uPy object is no longer allocated dynamically on the heap,
rather it's statically allocated and the same object is retrieved for
subsequent uses of pyb.DAC(<id>). This allows to access the DAC objects
without resetting the DAC peripheral. It also means that the DAC is only
reset if explicitly passed initialisation parameters, like "bits" or
"buffering".
- The DAC.noise() and DAC.triangle() methods now output a signal which is
full scale (previously it was a fraction of the full output voltage).
- The DAC.write_timed() method is fixed so that it continues in the
background when another peripheral (eg SPI) uses the DMA (previously the
DAC would stop if another peripheral finished with the DMA and shut the
DMA peripheral off completely).
Based on the above, the following backwards incompatibilities are
introduced:
- pyb.DAC(id) will now only reset the DAC the first time it is called,
whereas previously each call to create a DAC object would reset the DAC.
To get the old behaviour pass the bits parameter like: pyb.DAC(id, bits).
- DAC.noise() and DAC.triangle() are now full scale. To get previous
behaviour (to change the amplitude and offset) write to the DAC_CR (MAMP
bits) and DAC_DHR12Rx registers manually.
In CPython the random module is seeded differently on each import, and so
this new macro option MICROPY_PY_URANDOM_SEED_INIT_FUNC allows to implement
such a behaviour.
If MICROPY_HW_RTC_USE_BYPASS is enabled the RTC startup goes as follows:
- RTC is started with LSE in bypass mode to begin with
- if that fails to start (after a given timeout) then LSE is reconfigured
in non-bypass
- if that fails to start then RTC is switched to LSI
The qstr window size is not log-2 encoded, it's just the actual number (but
in mpy-tool.py this didn't lead to an error because the size is just used
to truncate the window so it doesn't grow arbitrarily large in memory).
Addresses issue #4635.
When running Linux on WSL, Popen.kill() can raise a ProcessLookupError if
the process does not exist anymore, which can happen here since the
previous statement already tries to close the process by sending Ctrl-D to
the running repl. This doesn't seem to be a problem on other OSes, so just
swallow the exception silently since it indicates the process has been
closed already, which after all is what we want.
Since commit da938a83b5 the tcp_arg() that is
set for the new connection is the new connection itself, and the parent
listening socket is found in the pcb->connected entry.
Use uos.dupterm for REPL configuration of the main USB_VCP(0) stream on
dupterm slot 1, if USB is enabled. This means dupterm can also be used to
disable the boot REPL port if desired, via uos.dupterm(None, 1).
For efficiency this adds a simple hook to the global uos.dupterm code to
work with streams that are known to be native streams.
