PicoDVI in CP support 640x480 and 800x480 on Feather DVI, Pico and
Pico W. 1 and 2 bit grayscale are full resolution. 8 and 16 bit
color are half resolution.
Memory layout is modified to give the top most 4k of ram to the
second core. Its MPU is used to prevent flash access after startup.
The port saved word is moved to a watchdog scratch register so that
it doesn't get overwritten by other things in RAM.
Right align status bar and scroll area. This normally gives a few
pixels of padding on the left hand side and improves the odds it is
readable in a case. Fixes#7562
Fixes c stack checking. The length was correct but the top was being
set to the current stack pointer instead of the correct top.
Fixes#7643
This makes Bitmap subscr raise IndexError instead of ValueError
when the index arguments are wrong.
In #7497 port_background_task was renamed to port_background_tick
but the actual call site wasn't changed. This meant that it was
no longer called!
Rename more functions from task to tick to make it clearer which is
which.
In contrast to MidiTrack, this can be controlled from Python code,
turning notes on/off as desired.
Not tested on real HW yet, just the acceptance test based on checking
which notes it thinks are held internally.
* 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.
Only uppercase ASCII letters a-z. This saves ~900 bytes. Previously
written files with other unicode letters will only be accessible
from their upper cased path.
If an exception's chain or context can refer to a pointer from a different
VM, a crash would typically result.
This couldn't turn up on UNIX testing because the VM is never torn
down and rebuilt like it is on hardware.
Because in the 'static' case the GeneratorObject is now fully initialized
whenever it's raised, the initialization can be dropped, which reduces
the flash size slightly.
Closes: #7565
cpython actually makes sure the newly chained exception doesn't create
a cycle (even indirectly); see _PyErr_SetObject use of "Floyd's cycle
detection algo". We'll go for the simpler solution of just checking
one level deep until it's clear we need to do more.
Closes: #7414
This may help address #7409 if the underlying cause is the deterministic
volume ID. However, not all boards have working urandom (samd21
at least does not) so a couple of fallbacks are attempted when it fails.
I verified that on a pico_w, each `storage.erase_filesystem()` gives
a distinct 32-bit volume ID (pico_w's urandom can never fail)
