This implementation provides the same interface and uses the same
datastructures as used by BootROM, i.e. is a drop-in replacement for it.
But it offers one advantage: it allows to run single iteration of
event-pumping loop.
Original BootROM function are renamed, prefixed with underscore. There's
a switch which allows to use forward calls to them, for compatibility
testing.
The implementation also includes workarounds for hardware timer handler,
and these workarounds may be SDK version specific.
Allows to set (in case keyword args are given) or query (in case a single
"symbolic keyword" (a string, value is the same as keyword)) arbitrary
interface paramters (i.e. extensible and adaptable to various hardware).
Example usage:
ap_if = network.WLAN(1)
ap_if.config(essid="MicroPython on Air")
print(ap_if.config("essid"))
Allows to up/down interface when called with a boolean, or query current
state if called without args. This per-interface method is intended to
supersede adhoc network.wifi_mode() function.
On ESP8266, there're 2 different interfaces. Pretending it's not the case
desn't make sense. So, network.WLAN() now takes interface id, and returns
interface object. Individual operations are then methods of interface
object. Some operations require i/f of specific type (e.g. .connect()
makes sense only for STA), other are defined for any (e.g. .ifconfig(),
.mac()).
None of the other ports do, since introduction of mp_state_ctx_t. In
the case of current esp8266 port, heap is inside BSS, so scanning it
picked up a lot of dead pointers.
Enabling standard assert() (by removing -DNDEBUG) produces non-bootable
binary (because all messages go to .rodata which silently overflows).
So, for once-off debugging, have a custom _assert().
Initialize RTC period coefficients, etc. if RTC RAM doesn't contain valid
values. time.time() then will return number of seconds since power-on, unless
set to different timebase.
This reuses MEM_MAGIC for the purpose beyond its initial purpose (but the whole
modpybrtc.c need to be eventually reworked completely anyway).
The first argument to the type.make_new method is naturally a uPy type,
and all uses of this argument cast it directly to a pointer to a type
structure. So it makes sense to just have it a pointer to a type from
the very beginning (and a const pointer at that). This patch makes
such a change, and removes all unnecessary casting to/from mp_obj_t.
This is a convenience function similar to pyexec_file. It should be used
instead of raw mp_parse_compile_execute because the latter does not catch
and report exceptions.
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
Scenario: module1 depends on some common file from lib/, so specifies it
in its SRC_MOD, and the same situation with module2, then common file
from lib/ eventually ends up listed twice in $(OBJ), which leads to link
errors.
Make is equipped to deal with such situation easily, quoting the manual:
"The value of $^ omits duplicate prerequisites, while $+ retains them and
preserves their order." So, just use $^ consistently in all link targets.
MicroPython "network" module interface requires it to contains classes
to instantiate. But as we have a static network interace, make WLAN()
"constructor" just return module itself, and just make all methods
module-global functions.
Pasting more or less sizable text into ESP8266 REPL leads to random chars
missing in the received input. Apparent cause is that using RTOS messages
to pass individual chars one by one is to slow and leads to UART FIFO
overflow. So, instead of passing chars one by one, use RTOS msg to signal
that input data is available in FIFO, and then let task handler to read
data directly from FIFO.
With this change, lost chars problem is gone, but the pasted text is
truncated after some position. At least 500 chars can be pasted reliably
(at 115200 baud), but 1K never pastes completely.
1. Updated linker script, now user app appears to contain exception vector
table and oesn't work (faults) without it.
2. Commened out support for GPIO pulldown, which was removed in this SDK
version without clear explanation, but apparently because it was released
without proper validation, and now turns out it doesn't work as expected,
or there's a different function there.
