SDK 2.0.0 goes into boot loop if a firmware is programmed over erased flash,
causing problems with user experience. This change implements behavior
similar to older SDKs': if clean flash is detected, default system
parameters are used.
Added options to make deploy so it can be used for ESP8266 boards with
other flash configurations. For example NodeMCU DEVKIT V1.0 can now use:
$ make FLASH_MODE=dio FLASH_SIZE=32m deploy
This new config option allows to control whether MicroPython uses its own
internal printf or not (if not, an external one should be linked in).
Accompanying this new option is the inclusion of lib/utils/printf.c in the
core list of source files, so that ports no longer need to include it
themselves.
modpybhspi now does the needed multiplexing, calling out to modpybspi
(bitbanging SPI) for suitable peripheral ID's. modmachinespi (previous
multiplexer class) thus not needed and removed.
modpybhspi also updated to following standard SPI peripheral naming:
SPI0 is used for FlashROM and thus not supported so far. SPI1 is available
for users, and thus needs to be instantiated as:
spi = machine.SPI(1, ...)
This extra forward slash for the starting-point directory is unnecessary
and leads to additional slashes on Max OS X which mean that the frozen
files cannot be imported.
Fixes#2374.
To start with, the critical scripts _boot.py and flashbdev.py are frozen
to improve performance and reduce RAM consumption.
Saves about 1000 bytes of heap RAM for a bare boot with filesystem.
Based on my experience, there's rather non-zero chance to have an image be
flashed incorrectly. As --verify option is now works well in teh latest
esptool.py, enable it by default.
All functionality of the pyb module is available in other modules, like
time, machine and os. The only outstanding function, info(), is
(temporarily) moved to the esp module and the pyb module is removed.
With .rodata being in FlashROM now, gap can be much smaller now. InstRAM
can be max 32K, and with segment headers, that already makes it more than
32K. Then there's some .data still, and the next Flash page boundary is
0x9000. That figure should be more or less future-proof.
TODO: Refactor makeimg to take FlashROM segment offset from file name.
PWM implementation uses a timer and interrupts (FRC1), taken from
Espressif's/NodeMCU's implementation and adapted for our use.
8 channels are supported, on pins 0, 2, 4, 5, 12, 13, 14, 15.
Usage:
import machine
pwm0 = machine.PWM(machine.Pin(0))
pwm0.freq(1000)
pwm0.duty(500)
Frequency is shared (ie the same) for all channels. Frequency is
between 1 and 1000. Duty is between 0 and 1023.
