For MSVC off_t is defined in sys/types.h but according to the comment
earlier in mpconfigport.h this cannot be included directly.
So just make off_t the same as mp_off_t.
This fixes the build for MSVC with MICROPY_STREAMS_POSIX_API
enabled because stream.h uses off_t.
These were copied from the stm32 port (then stmhal) at the very beginning
of this port, with the anticipation that the esp8266 port would have board
definition files with a list of valid pins and their names. But that has
not been implemented and likely won't be, so remove the corresponding lines
from the Makefile.
This patch adds in internal config value MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_HW_I2C that is
automatically configured, and enabled only if one or more hardware I2C
ports are defined in the mpconfigboard.h file. If none are defined then
the pyb.I2C class is excluded from the build, along with all supporting
code. The machine.I2C class will still be available for software I2C.
Disabling all hardware I2C on an F4 board saves around 10,000 bytes of code
and 200 bytes of RAM.
If TEST is defined, file it refers to will be used as the testsuite
source (should be generated with tools/tinytest-codegen.py).
"make-bin-testsuite" script is introduce to build such a binary.
Because otherwise the function can return with data still waiting to be
clocked out, and CS might then be disabled before the SPI transaction is
complete. Fixes issue #3487.
The way tinytest was used in qemu-arm test target is that it didn't test
much. MicroPython tests are based on matching the test output against
reference output, but qemu-arm's implementation didn't do that, it
effectively tested just that there was no exception during test
execution. "upytesthelper" wrapper was introduce to fix it, so switch
test implementation to use it.
This requires passing different CFLAGS when building the firmware, so
split out test-related parts to Makefile.test.
Code lineage:
osdebug() is based loosely on the version in esp8266, but there didn't
seem to be an obvious way of choosing a particular UART. The basic
behavior is the same, though: provide None, and logging is disabled;
provide an integer and logging is restored to the default level.
To build on that, and because the IDF provides more functionality, a
second parameter has now been implemented which allows the active log
level to be set:
esp.osdebug(uart[, level])
The module has a corresponding set of LOG_ values to set this accordingly.
When configuring a static set of values with ifconfig() the DNS was not
being set. This patch fixes that, and additionally uses the tcpip_adapter
API to ensure it is thread safe.

I started by copying the esp8266 machine_pwm.c. I used information from the
ESP32 Technical Reference Manual, the esp-idf documentation, and the SDK's

understand the SDK's API for PWM). So aside from the code copied from the
esp8266 PWM support, everything else you see is just new code I wrote.
I wasn't an employee of anybody when I wrote it, and I wrote it with the
understanding and intention that it's simply a derivative work of the
existing micropython code. I freely and willingly contribute it to the
project and intend that it not change the legal status of the micropython
code base in any way, even if it is included in that base in whole or part.

This function was implemented as an experiment, and was enabled only in
unix port. To remind, it allows to access arbitrary files frozen as
source modules (vs bytecode).
However, further experimentation showed that the same functionality can
be implemented with frozen bytecode. The process requires more steps, but
with suitable toolset it doesn't matter patch. This process is:
1. Convert binary files into "Python resource module" with
tools/mpy_bin2res.py.
2. Freeze as the bytecode.
3. Use micropython-lib's pkg_resources.resource_stream() to access it.
In other words, the extra step is using tools/mpy_bin2res.py (because
there would be wrapper for uio.resource_stream() anyway).
Going frozen bytecode route allows more flexibility, and same/additional
efficiency:
1. Frozen source support can be disabled altogether for additional code
savings.
2. Resources could be also accessed as a buffer, not just as a stream.
There're few caveats too:
1. It wasn't actually profiled the overhead of storing a resource in
"Python resource module" vs storing it directly, but it's assumed that
overhead is small.
2. The "efficiency" claim above applies to the case when resource
file is frozen as the bytecode. If it's not, it actually will take a
lot of RAM on loading. But in this case, the resource file should not
be used (i.e. generated) in the first place, and micropython-lib's
pkg_resources.resource_stream() implementation has the appropriate
fallback to read the raw files instead. This still poses some distribution
issues, e.g. to deployable to baremetal ports (which almost certainly
would require freezeing as the bytecode), a distribution package should
include the resource module. But for non-freezing deployment, presense
of resource module will lead to memory inefficiency.
All the discussion above reminds why uio.resource_stream() was implemented
in the first place - to address some of the issues above. However, since
then, frozen bytecode approach seems to prevail, so, while there're still
some issues to address with it, this change is being made.
This change saves 488 bytes for the unix x86_64 port.
Command-line argc and argv should be passed, and as we don't have them,
placeholders were passed, but incorrectly. As we don't have them, just
pass 0/NULL. Looking at the source, this migh lead to problems under
Windows, but this test doesn't run under Windows.
Also, use "%d" printf format consistently with the rest of the codebase.
Prior to this fix, enabling WebREPL for the first time via webrepl_setup
did not work at all because "boot.py" did not contain any lines with
"webrepl" in them that could be uncommented.
This time hopefully should work reliably, using make $(wildcard) function,
which in this case either expands to existing prj_$(BOARD).conf file, or to
an empty string for non-existing one.
This is a low-cost evaluation kit board from ST based on the STM32
Nucleo-144 form factor. It uses the STM32F746ZG MCU in the LQFP144
package. The MCU has 1MB of flash and 320kB of System RAM.
Cortex-M7 runs at up to 216MHz.
This patch simplifies the str creation API to favour the common case of
creating a str object that is not forced to be interned. To force
interning of a new str the new mp_obj_new_str_via_qstr function is added,
and should only be used if warranted.
Apart from simplifying the mp_obj_new_str function (and making it have the
same signature as mp_obj_new_bytes), this patch also reduces code size by a
bit (-16 bytes for bare-arm and roughly -40 bytes on the bare-metal archs).
Recent vendor SDKs ship libs with code in .text section, which previously
was going into .irom0.text. Adjust the linker script to route these
sections back to iROM (follows upstream change).
The SHA1 hashing functionality is provided via the "axtls" library's
implementation, and hence is unavailable when the "axtls" library is not being
used. This change provides the same SHA1 hashing functionality when using the
"mbedtls" library by using its implementation instead.
Macros to convert big-endian values to host byte order and vice-versa.
These were defined in adhoc way for some ports (e.g. esp8266), allow
reuse, provide default implementations, while allow ports to override.
In the vendor SDK 2.1.0, some of the functions which previously didn't
have prototypes, finally acquired them. Change prototypes on our side
to match those in vendor headers, to avoid warnings-as-errors.
With inplace methods now disabled by default, it makes sense to enable
reverse methods, as they allow for more useful features, e.g. allow
for datetime module to implement both 2 * HOUR and HOUR * 2 (where
HOUR is e.g. timedelta object).
Unix naming is historical, before current conventions were established.
All other ports however have it as "modusocket.c", so rename for
consistency and to avoid confusion.
The legacy function pyb.repl_uart() is still provided and retains its
original behaviour (it only accepts a UART object). uos.dupterm() will now
accept any object with write/readinto methods. At the moment there is just
1 dupterm slot.
The W5200 and W5500 can support up to 80MHz so 42MHz (the maximum the
pyboard can do in its standard configuration) should be safe.
Tested to give around 1050000 kbytes/sec TCP download speed on a W5500,
which is about 10% more than with the previous SPI speed of 21MHz.
Which Wiznet chip to use is a compile-time option: MICROPY_PY_WIZNET5K
should be set to either 5200 or 5500 to support either one of these
Ethernet chips. The driver is called network.WIZNET5K in both cases.
Note that this commit introduces a breaking-change at the build level
because previously the valid values for MICROPY_PY_WIZNET5K were 0 and 1
but now they are 0, 5200 and 5500.
The uos.dupterm() signature and behaviour is updated to reflect the latest
enhancements in the docs. It has minor backwards incompatibility in that
it no longer accepts zero arguments.
The dupterm_rx helper function is moved from esp8266 to extmod and
generalised to support multiple dupterm slots.
A port can specify multiple slots by defining the MICROPY_PY_OS_DUPTERM
config macro to an integer, being the number of slots it wants to have;
0 means to disable the dupterm feature altogether.
The unix and esp8266 ports are updated to work with the new interface and
are otherwise unchanged with respect to functionality.
While this console API improves handling on real hardware boards
(e.g. clipboard paste is much more reliable, as well as programmatic
communication), it vice-versa poses problems under QEMU, apparently
because it doesn't emulate UART interrupt handling faithfully. That
leads to inability to run the testsuite on QEMU at all. To work that
around, we have to suuport both old and new console routines, and use
the old ones under QEMU.
Ideally, these should be configurable from Python (using network module),
but as that doesn't exist, we better off using Zephyr's native bootstrap
configuration facility.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums
Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
mp_obj_t type
py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions
Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.
This adds a new configuration option to print runtime warnings and errors to
stderr. On Unix, CPython prints warnings and unhandled exceptions to stderr,
so the unix port here is configured to use this option.
The unix port already printed unhandled exceptions on the main thread to
stderr. This patch fixes unhandled exceptions on other threads and warnings
(issue #2838) not printing on stderr.
Additionally, a couple tests needed to be fixed to handle this new behavior.
This is done by also capturing stderr when running tests.
The timer prescaler is buffered by default, and this patch enables ARPE
which buffers the auto-reload register. With both of these registers
buffered it's now possible to smoothly change the timer's frequency and
have a smoothly varying PWM output.
Current users of fixed vstr buffers (building file paths) assume that there
is no overflow and do not check for overflow after building the vstr. This
has the potential to lead to NULL pointer dereferences
(when vstr_null_terminated_str returns NULL because it can't allocate RAM
for the terminating byte) and stat'ing and loading invalid path names (due
to the path being truncated). The safest and simplest thing to do in these
cases is just raise an exception if a write goes beyond the end of a fixed
vstr buffer, which is what this patch does. It also simplifies the vstr
code.
Prior to this patch calling pyb.Timer(id) would always create a new timer
instance, even if there was an existing one. This patch fixes this
behaviour to match other peripherals, like UART, such that constructing a
timer with just the id will retrieve any existing instances.
The patch also refactors the way timers are validated on construction to
simplify and reduce code size.
If, for class X, X.__add__(Y) doesn't exist (or returns NotImplemented),
try Y.__radd__(X) instead.
This patch could be simpler, but requires undoing operand swap and
operation switch to get non-confusing error message in case __radd__
doesn't exist.
connect, send, recv, sendto and recvfrom now release the GIL. accept
already releases the GIL because it calls mp_hal_delay_ms() within its
busy-wait loop.
Previous to this patch the i2c.scan() method would do up to 100 probes per
I2C address, to detect the devices on the bus. This repeated probing was a
relic from when the code was copied from the accelerometer initialisation,
which requires to do repeated probes while waiting for the accelerometer
chip to turn on.
But I2C devices shouldn't need more than 1 probe to detect their presence,
and the generic software I2C implementation uses 1 probe successfully. So
this patch changes the implementation to use 1 probe per address, which
significantly speeds up the scan operation.
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
