F-strings, new machine.I2S class, ESP32-C3 support and LEGO_HUB_NO6 board
This release of MicroPython adds support for f-strings (PEP-498), with a
few limitations compared to normal Python. F-strings are essentially
syntactic sugar for "".format() and make formatting strings a lot more
convenient. Other improvements to the core runtime include pretty printing
OSError when it has two arguments (an errno code and a string), scheduling
of KeyboardInterrupt on the main thread, and support for a single argument
to the optimised form of StopIteration.
In the machine module a new I2S class has been added, with support for
esp32 and stm32 ports. This provides a consistent API for transmit and
receive of audio data in blocking, non-blocking and asyncio-based
operation. Also, the json module has support for the "separators" argument
in the dump and dumps functions, and framebuf now includes a way to blit
between frame buffers of different formats using a palette. A new,
portable machine.bitstream function is also added which can output a stream
of bits with configurable timing, and is used as the basis for driving
WS2812 LEDs in a common way across ports.
There has been some restructuring of the repository directory layout, with
all third-party code now in the lib/ directory. And a new top-level
directory shared/ has been added with first-party code that was previously
in lib/ moved there.
The docs have seen further improvement with enhancements and additions to
the rp2 parts, as well as a new quick reference for the zephyr port.
The terms master/slave have been replaced with controller/peripheral,
mainly relating to I2C and SPI usage. And u-module references have been
replaced with just the module name without the u-prefix to help clear up
the intended usage of modules in MicroPython.
For the esp8266 and esp32 ports, hidden networks are now included in WLAN
scan results. On the esp32 the RMT class is enhanced with idle_level and
write_pulses modes. There is initial support for ESP32-C3 chips with
GENERIC_C3 and GENERIC_C3_USB boards.
The javascript port has had its Makefile and garbage collector
implementation reworked so it compiles and runs with latest the Emscripten
using asyncify.
The mimxrt port sees the addition of hardware I2C and SPI support, as well
as some additional methods to the machine module. There is also support
for Hyperflash chips.
The nrf port now has full VFS storage support, enables source-line on
traceback, and has .mpy features consistent with other ports.
For the rp2 port there is now more configurability for boards, and more
boards added.
The stm32 port has a new LEGO_HUB_NO6 board definition with detailed
information how to get this LEGO Hub running stock MicroPython. There is
also now support to change the CPU frequency on STM32WB MCUs. And USBD_xxx
descriptor options have been renamed to MICROPY_HW_USB_xxx.

This commit removes all parts of code associated with the existing
MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE optimisation option, including the
-mcache-lookup-bc option to mpy-cross.
This feature originally provided a significant performance boost for Unix,
but wasn't able to be enabled for MCU targets (due to frozen bytecode), and
added significant extra complexity to generating and distributing .mpy
files.
The equivalent performance gain is now provided by the combination of
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE (which has
been enabled on the unix port in the previous commit).
It's hard to provide precise performance numbers, but tests have been run
on a wide variety of architectures (x86-64, ARM Cortex, Aarch64, RISC-V,
xtensa) and they all generally agree on the qualitative improvements seen
by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE.
For example, on a "quiet" Linux x64 environment (i3-5010U @ 2.10GHz) the
change from CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, to LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH combined
with MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE is:
diff of scores (higher is better)
N=2000 M=2000 bccache -> attrmapcache diff diff% (error%)
bm_chaos.py 13742.56 -> 13905.67 : +163.11 = +1.187% (+/-3.75%)

This shows that the new optimisations are at least as good as the existing
inline-bytecode-caching, and are sometimes much better (because the new
ones apply caching to a wider variety of map lookups).
The new optimisations can also benefit code generated by the native
emitter, because they apply to the runtime rather than the generated code.
The improvement for the native emitter when LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE are enabled is (same Linux environment as above):
diff of scores (higher is better)
N=2000 M=2000 native -> nat-attrmapcache diff diff% (error%)
bm_chaos.py 14130.62 -> 15464.68 : +1334.06 = +9.441% (+/-7.11%)

misc_raytrace.py 19800.01 -> 23350.73 : +3550.72 = +17.933% (+/-2.79%)
In summary, compared to MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, the new
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE options:
- are simpler;
- take less code size;
- are faster (generally);
- work with code generated by the native emitter;
- can be used on embedded targets with a small and constant RAM overhead;
- allow the same .mpy bytecode to run on all targets.
See #7680 for further discussion. And see also #7653 for a discussion
about simplifying mpy-cross options.

This achieves a substantial performance improvement when rendering glyphs
to color displays, the benefit increasing proportional to the number of
pixels in the glyph.
This allows the write to trigger a notification or indication, but only to
subscribed clients. This is different to gatts_notify/gatts_indicate,
which will unconditionally notify/indicate.

Anywhere a module is mentioned, use its "non-u" name for consistency.
The "import module" vs "import umodule" is something of a FAQ, and this
commit intends to help clear that up. As a first approximation MicroPython
is Python, and so imports should work the same as Python and use the same
name, to a first approximation. The u-version of a module is a detail that
can be learned later on, when the user wants to understand more and have
finer control over importing.
Existing Python code should just work, as much as it is possible to do that
within the constraints of embedded systems, and the MicroPython
documentation should match the idiomatic way to write Python code.
With universal weak links for modules (via MICROPY_MODULE_WEAK_LINKS) users
can consistently use "import foo" across all ports (with the exception of
the minimal ports). And the ability to override/extend via "foo.py"
continues to work well.

Optionally enabled via MICROPY_PY_UJSON_SEPARATORS. Enabled by default.
For dump, make sure mp_get_stream_raise is called after
mod_ujson_separators since CPython does it in this order (if both
separators and stream are invalid, separators will raise an exception
first).
Add separators argument in the docs as well.

This enables optional support for the hardware UART to use the RTS and/or
CTS pins for flow control.
The new "flow" constructor keyword specifies a bitmask of RTS and/or CTS.
This matches the interface used by machine.UART on stm32 and rp2.
Previously on ESP32 it was possible to specify which pins to use for the
RTS and CTS signals, but hardware flow control was never functional: CTS
was not checked before transmitting bytes, and RTS was always driven high
(signalling no buffer space available). With this patch, CTS and RTS both
operate as expected.
This also includes an update to the machine.UART documentation.

For some boards, even -fm dio is too fast and they require -fm dout. This
commit links to the esptool wiki about available flash modes and changes
dio to dout.
This commit adds I2S protocol support for the esp32 and stm32 ports, via
a new machine.I2S class. It builds on the stm32 work of blmorris, #1361.
Features include:
- a consistent I2S API across the esp32 and stm32 ports
- I2S configurations supported:
- master transmit and master receive
- 16-bit and 32-bit sample sizes
- mono and stereo formats
- sampling frequency
- 3 modes of operation:
- blocking
- non-blocking with callback
- uasyncio
- internal ring buffer size can be tuned
- documentation for Pyboards and esp32-based boards
- tested on the following development boards:
- Pyboard D SF2W
- Pyboard V1.1
- ESP32 with SPIRAM
- ESP32

Add new API for specifying the idle level and TX carrier output level, and
new write_pulses modes of operation. Also fix wait_done documentation
which was inverted and wrong about timing.
The RTC in rp2 can store any, even wrong, number as a weekday in RTC. It
was, however, discussed in #7394 that we would like to unify all ports and
use 0 as Monday, not Sunday in the machine.RTC implementation.
This patch makes sure that the default date set in RTC is adheres to this
convention. It also fixes the example in quickref to use proper weekday to
avoid confusion.

This adds an initial specification of the machine.PWM class, to provide a
way to generate PWM output that is portable across the different ports.
Such functionality may already be available in one way or another (eg
through a Timer object), but because configuring PWM via a Timer is very
port-specific, and because it's a common thing to do, it's beneficial to
have a top-level construct for it.
The specification in this commit aims to provide core functionality in a
minimal way. It also somewhat matches most existing ad-hoc implementations
of machine.PWM.

This commit adds the errno attribute to exceptions, so code can retrieve
errno codes from an OSError using exc.errno.
The implementation here simply lets `errno` (and the existing `value`)
attributes work on any exception instance (they both alias args[0]). This
is for efficiency and to keep code size down. The pros and cons of this
are:
Pros:
- more compatible with CPython, less difference to document and learn
- OSError().errno will correctly return None, whereas the current way of
doing it via OSError().args[0] will raise an IndexError
- it reduces code size on most bare-metal ports (because they already have
the errno qstr)
- for Python code that uses exc.errno the generated bytecode is 2 bytes
smaller and more efficient to execute (compared with exc.args[0]); so
bytecode loaded to RAM saves 2 bytes RAM for each use of this attribute,
and bytecode that is frozen saves 2 bytes flash/ROM for each use
- it's easier/shorter to type, and saves 2 bytes of space in .py files that
use it (for each use)
Cons:
- increases code size by 4-8 bytes on minimal ports that don't already have
the `errno` qstr
- all exceptions now have .errno and .value attributes (a cpydiff test is
added to address this)

It's a bit of a pitfall with user C modules that including them in the
build does not automatically enable them. This commit changes the docs and
examples for user C modules to encourage writers of user C modules to
enable them unconditionally. This makes things simpler and covers most use
cases.

Add most formatting-only commits to this file so that when used with
git blame, these commits are excluded and the output shows only the
interesting bits.
This commit implements basic NVS support for the esp32. It follows the
pattern of the esp32.Partition class and exposes an NVS object per NVS
namespace. The initial support provided is only for signed 32-bit integers
and binary blobs. It's easy (albeit a bit tedious) to add support for
more types.
