- define CIRCUITPY_BUILD_EXTENSIONS to predefined values
- set CIRCUITPY_BUILD_EXTENSIONS in port and board config
- reuse the support matrix "get_settings_from_makefile" to get it
- move the existing port and board specific values
- remove the C3 specific board values because it's not the default
- update build_release_files.py to use get_settings_from_makefile
Everything should be using the keypad module instead.
Note: there are several boards that still had gamepadshift enabled. I
did not contact their authors to make sure they already switched to
keypad in their code and documentation. We should probably wait with
merging this for their go ahead.
Changed a few things in the link step that satisfies the teensy
loader apps, both the teensy.exe as well as the teensy_loader_cli
such that when you program the board again it should retain the
file sytem that is stored in the upper area of the Flash
there return of a read operation that times out with no data received
is inconsistent:

Since I have a PR on this file anyway, I thought I would put in the change to make it consistent
with the other 3 board types I tried. Can not say about any of the others.
The existing code was setup that allowed you to specify an RTS
pin to be used as an RS485 direction pin, however there are no
RTS pins that are exposed on any of the Teensy 4.x boards.
Instead Arduino code base allowed you to specify any GPIO pin to
work instead. So I added the code in to facilitate this.
In addition the alternative code to wrap your own GPIO pin set high and low
around call(s) to uart.write() will not currently work, unless maybe you
fudge it and add your own delays as the write will return after the last
byte was pushed onto the UART’s hardware FIFO queue and as such if you
then immediately set the IO pin low, it will corrupt your output stream.
The code I added detects that you are setup to use the RS485 pin and
before it returns will wait for the UART’s Transfer complete status flag
to be set.
There were two main issues with the PWM support.
The first is they would fail to work properly if the board goes
into low power mode, when you do things like: time.sleep(0.25)
Can make partially work with this by turning on the proper flags
in each of the FlexPWMTimer Timers/sub-timers, but this did not
appear to work if for example you have both A and B channels
enabled.
Second main problem is that the code did not work with the X
channel of each timer/sub-timer. It looks like someone had
earlier started support for this, But was not sufficient.
Needed to bypass the SDK code and get it closer to the PJRC code.
That is we set the PWM_CTRL_FULL_MASK, which then uses base->SM[submodule].VAL1 to control
when the timer is reset, so it sets up your cycle/frequency. But then this implies that X channel
which uses 0, 1 has to be handled specially. So for the different channels:
A - Uses VAL2 to turn on (0) and VAL3=duty to turn off
B - Uses VAL4 to turn on (0) and VAL5 to turn off
X - As mentioned above VAL1 turns off, but its set to the timing for freqency. so
VAL0 turns on, so we set it to VAL1 - duty
Renamed the board both name of directory within boards, but also the
name reported board name: board_id -- sparkfun_teensy_micromod
Adafruit CircuitPython 7.3.0-beta.0-10-g2a3eb49da-dirty on 2022-04-10; SparkFun Teensy MicroMod Processor with IMXRT1062DVL6A
While testing out this and the new MicroMod Teensy port, @mjs513
and myself found it desirable to have logical pin names for the
different Serial UART objects. It is a lot easier and clearer
to use and maintain to do something
like: uart4 = busio.UART(board.TX4, board.RX4)
than have to go look up the pin numbers for each board.
I fixed a couple issues in the pin name definitions.
The pin names are sort of Teensy centric in that the priority is given
to the pin names you would use in Arduino like D0, D1, ...
But also added names for the MicroMod names in particular the names
on the front of the ATP carrier board
Also updated manufacturer to be both PJRC and Sparkfun
As mentioned in issue #6241 the commit to setup port hooks is now
causing all input/output that are to go to the Mu window to also
go to the LpUart that is defined the port serial.c
and in this case it goes to lpuart4, which on Teensy 4, 4.1 is
used on Arduino Serial2. With this new code this port no longer
works properly.
This is one way to solve it, in that there is a #if defined() that
if not set, all of the code in this file is ignored and the higher
level supervisor stub versions of these functions will be used, which
don't interfere with Serial2 and my test sketch works again.
Note: the PR for Switch to Port Serial Hooks, also changed code in
other ports. I have not tried to see how.
There are other more global fixes for this, in which maybe a higer
level #if that disables the code within the top level supervisor. Or
could be software controlled
Again this may not be the final solution, but at least it gets
Serial2 up and running agin.
