This simplifies allocating outside of the VM because the VM doesn't
take up all remaining memory by default.
On ESP we delegate to the IDF for allocations. For all other ports,
we use TLSF to manage an outer "port" heap. The IDF uses TLSF
internally and we use their fork for the other ports.
This also removes the dynamic C stack sizing. It wasn't often used
and is not possible with a fixed outer heap.
Fixes#8512. Fixes#7334.
This adds a script to generate the peripherals files (except clock).
It adds support for the 1015, 1020, 1040, and 1050 EVKs.
Some work was started on 1176 but it isn't working. So, the board
def is in a separate branch.
Fixes#3521. Fixes#2477.
tested on metro m7 (green prototype version) with max98357a i2s amplifier and the following test code:
```py
import board
import time
import digitalio
from audiobusio import I2SOut
from audiocore import RawSample
from microcontroller import pin
from ulab import numpy as np
n = np.array(np.sin(np.linspace(0, np.pi*2, 218, endpoint=False)) * 200, dtype=np.int16)
print(n)
r = RawSample(n, sample_rate=8000, channel_count=2)
def main():
with digitalio.DigitalInOut(board.LED) as l:
l.switch_to_output(True)
value = False
while True:
with I2SOut(pin.GPIO_06, pin.GPIO_07, pin.GPIO_04) as i:
time.sleep(.01)
l.value = value = not value
i.play(r, loop=True)
print(i.playing)
time.sleep(.5)
i.stop()
print("STOPPED")
print(i.playing)
time.sleep(.5)
i.play(r, loop=True)
print(i.playing)
print("PLAY AGAIN")
time.sleep(.5)
time.sleep(1)
```
Only stereo, 16-bit, raw samples were tested; the sample rate is actually fixed
at 48kHz in the core right now. There is more to do, but the basics work.

* Enable dcache for OCRAM where the VM heap lives.
* Add CIRCUITPY_SWO_TRACE for pushing program counters out over the
SWO pin via the ITM module in the CPU. Exempt some functions from
instrumentation to reduce traffic and allow inlining.
* Place more functions in ITCM to handle errors using code in RAM-only
and speed up CP.
* Use SET and CLEAR registers for digitalio. The SDK does read, mask
and write.
* Switch to 2MiB reserved for CircuitPython code. Up from 1MiB.
* Run USB interrupts during flash erase and write.
* Allow storage writes from CP if the USB drive is disabled.
* Get perf bench tests running on CircuitPython and increase timeouts
so it works when instrumentation is active.
This helps my development scripts work better, and probably also fixes
a problem switching from the circuitpython environment back to arduino.
(specifically, the "1200 baud" serial trick was not rebooting into
the bootloader but was just resetting)
It now handles deinit, never_reset and sharing tracking. PWM
now runs in the WAIT state as well during a time.sleep().
_reset_ok() was removed because it was called in one spot right
before deinit().
Some PWMOut were also switched to a bitmap for use instead of
reference count. That way init and deinit are idempotent.
Fixes#6589. Fixes#4841. Fixes#4541.
Everything should be using the keypad module instead.
Note: there are several boards that still had gamepadshift enabled. I
did not contact their authors to make sure they already switched to
keypad in their code and documentation. We should probably wait with
merging this for their go ahead.
There were two main issues with the PWM support.
The first is they would fail to work properly if the board goes
into low power mode, when you do things like: time.sleep(0.25)
Can make partially work with this by turning on the proper flags
in each of the FlexPWMTimer Timers/sub-timers, but this did not
appear to work if for example you have both A and B channels
enabled.
Second main problem is that the code did not work with the X
channel of each timer/sub-timer. It looks like someone had
earlier started support for this, But was not sufficient.
Needed to bypass the SDK code and get it closer to the PJRC code.
That is we set the PWM_CTRL_FULL_MASK, which then uses base->SM[submodule].VAL1 to control
when the timer is reset, so it sets up your cycle/frequency. But then this implies that X channel
which uses 0, 1 has to be handled specially. So for the different channels:
A - Uses VAL2 to turn on (0) and VAL3=duty to turn off
B - Uses VAL4 to turn on (0) and VAL5 to turn off
X - As mentioned above VAL1 turns off, but its set to the timing for freqency. so
VAL0 turns on, so we set it to VAL1 - duty
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.
Passing in a PWMOut still works but is deprecated. It will be
removed in CircuitPython 8.0.0
This also switches STM32 timer indices and channel indices to
0-based in our pin data rather than `- 1` everywhere. The latter is
more bug prone.
Most of the way for #3264
Tested on Metro M0, Metro M4, Feather S2, Feather nRF52840, Feather
STM32F4 and Arduino RP2040.
This changes lots of files to unify `board.h` across ports. It adds
`board_deinit` when CIRCUITPY_ALARM is set. `main.c` uses it to
deinit the board before deep sleeping (even when pretending.)
Deep sleep is now a two step process for the port. First, the
port should prepare to deep sleep based on the given alarms. It
should set alarms for both deep and pretend sleep. In particular,
the pretend versions should be set immediately so that we don't
miss an alarm as we shutdown. These alarms should also wake from
`port_idle_until_interrupt` which is used when pretending to deep
sleep.
Second, when real deep sleeping, `alarm_enter_deep_sleep` is called.
The port should set any alarms it didn't during prepare based on
data it saved internally during prepare.
ESP32-S2 sleep is a bit reorganized to locate more logic with
TimeAlarm. This will help it scale to more alarm types.
Fixes#3786
This allows calls to `allocate_memory()` while the VM is running, it will then allocate from the GC heap (unless there is a suitable hole among the supervisor allocations), and when the VM exits and the GC heap is freed, the allocation will be moved to the bottom of the former GC heap and transformed into a proper supervisor allocation. Existing movable allocations will also be moved to defragment the supervisor heap and ensure that the next VM run gets as much memory as possible for the GC heap.
By itself this breaks terminalio because it violates the assumption that supervisor_display_move_memory() still has access to an undisturbed heap to copy the tilegrid from. It will work in many cases, but if you're unlucky you will get garbled terminal contents after exiting from the vm run that created the display. This will be fixed in the following commit, which is separate to simplify review.
This unifies the flash config to the settings used by the Boot ROM.
This makes the config unique per board which allows for changing
quad enable and status bit differences per flash device. It also
allows for timing differences due to the board layout.
This change also tweaks linker layout to leave more ram space for
the CircuitPython heap.
I noticed that this code was referring to samd-specific functionality,
and isn't enabled except in one samd board (pewpew10). Move it.
There is incomplte support for _pew in mimxrt10xx which then caused build
errors; adding a #if guard to check for _pew being enabled fixes it.
The _pew module is not likely to be important on mimxrt but I'll leave the
choice to remove it to someone else.
The iMX RT has a separate wake up controller, the GPC, that replaces
the NVIC when asleep. It adds the ability to only wake up on certain
interrupts. It seems that it requires at least one enabled interrupt
in the NVIC to turn on it's wake up circuitry. It doesn't need to
be the same interrupt as the wake up signal. For example, the RTC
in the SNVS can wake us up if a USB interrupt is enabled. Before
then it won't work. So, we enable the SNVS interrupt on start up
so it can wake us up.
Introduces a way to place CircuitPython code and data into
tightly coupled memory (TCM) which is accessible by the CPU in a
single cycle. It also frees up room in the corresponding cache for
intermittent data. Loading from external flash is slow!
The data cache is also now enabled.
Adds support for the iMX RT 1021 chip. Adds three new boards:
* iMX RT 1020 EVK
* iMX RT 1060 EVK
* Teensy 4.0
Related to #2492, #2472 and #2477. Fixes#2475.
