This commit adds the IRQ_GATTS_INDICATE_DONE BLE event which will be raised
with the status of gatts_indicate (unlike notify, indications require
acknowledgement).
An example of its use is added to ble_temperature.py, and to the multitests
in ble_characteristic.py.
Implemented for btstack and nimble bindings, tested in both directions
between unix/btstack and pybd/nimble.
The goal of this commit is to allow using ble.gatts_notify() at any time,
even if the stack is not ready to send the notification right now. It also
addresses the same issue for ble.gatts_indicate() and ble.gattc_write()
(without response). In addition this commit fixes the case where the
buffer passed to write-with-response wasn't copied, meaning it could be
modified by the caller, affecting the in-progress write.
The changes are:
- gatts_notify/indicate will now run in the background if the ACL buffer is
currently full, meaning that notify/indicate can be called at any time.
- gattc_write(mode=0) (no response) will now allow for one outstanding
write.
- gattc_write(mode=1) (with response) will now copy the buffer so that it
can't be modified by the caller while the write is in progress.
All four paths also now track the buffer while the operation is in
progress, which prevents the GC free'ing the buffer while it's still
needed.
This commit allows the user to set/get the GAP device name used by service
0x1800, characteristic 0x2a00. The usage is:
BLE.config(gap_name="myname")
print(BLE.config("gap_name"))
As part of this change the compile-time setting
MICROPY_PY_BLUETOOTH_DEFAULT_NAME is renamed to
MICROPY_PY_BLUETOOTH_DEFAULT_GAP_NAME to emphasise its link to GAP and this
new "gap_name" config value. And the default value of this for the NimBLE
bindings is changed from "PYBD" to "MPY NIMBLE" to be more generic.
This commit changes the BLE _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT data from:
addr_type, addr, connectable, rssi, adv_data
to:
addr_type, addr, adv_type, rssi, adv_data
This allows _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT to handle all scan result types (not just
connectable and non-connectable passive scans), and to distinguish between
them using adv_type which is an integer taking values 0x00-0x04 per the BT
specification.
This is a breaking change to the API, albeit a very minor one: the existing
connectable value was a boolean and True now becomes 0x00, False becomes
0x02.
Documentation is updated and a test added.
Fixes#5738.
