No functionality change is intended with this commit, it just consolidates
the separate implementations of GC helper code to the lib/utils/ directory
as a general set of helper functions useful for any port. This reduces
duplication of code, and makes it easier for future ports or embedders to
get the GC implementation correct.
Ports should now link against gchelper_native.c and either gchelper_m0.s or
gchelper_m3.s (currently only Cortex-M is supported but other architectures
can follow), or use the fallback gchelper_generic.c which will work on
x86/x64/ARM.
The gc_helper_get_sp function from gchelper_m3.s is not really GC related
and was only used by cc3200, so it has been moved to that port and renamed
to cortex_m3_get_sp.
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.
This function is not used by the core but having it as part of the build
allows it to be used by user C modules, or board extensions. The linker
won't include it in the final firmware if it remains unused.
- Split 'qemu-arm' from 'unix' for generating tests.
- Add frozen module to the qemu-arm test build.
- Add test that reproduces the requirement to half-word align native
function data.
Adds support for 3 Cortex-M boards, selectable via "BOARD" in the Makefile:
- microbit, Cortex-M0 via nRF51822
- netduino2, Cortex-M3 via STM32F205
- mps2-an385, Cortex-M3 via FPGA
netduino2 is the default board because it's supported by older qemu
versions (down to at least 2.5.0).
The way tinytest was used in qemu-arm test target is that it didn't test
much. MicroPython tests are based on matching the test output against
reference output, but qemu-arm's implementation didn't do that, it
effectively tested just that there was no exception during test
execution. "upytesthelper" wrapper was introduce to fix it, so switch
test implementation to use it.
This requires passing different CFLAGS when building the firmware, so
split out test-related parts to Makefile.test.
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
