When the network module was first introduced in the esp8266 port in
ee3fec3167 there was only one interface (STA)
and, to save flash, the WLAN object was aliased to the network module,
which had just static methods for WLAN operations. This was subsequently
changed in 9e8396accb when the AP interface
was introduced, and the WLAN object became a true class.
But, network.WLAN remained a function that returned either the STA or AP
object and was never upgraded to the type itself. This scheme was then
copied over to the esp32 port when it was first introduced.
This commit changes network.WLAN from a function to a reference to the WLAN
type. This makes it consistent with other ports and network objects, and
allows accessing constants of network.WLAN without creating an instance.

For esp32 and esp8266 this commit adds:
- a 'pm' option to WLAN.config() to set/get the wifi power saving mode; and
- PM_NONE, PM_PERFORMANCE and PM_POWERSAVE constants to the WLAN class.
This API should be general enough to use with all WLAN drivers.
Documentation is also added.
All ports that enable MICROPY_PY_MACHINE_PWM now enable these two
sub-options, so remove these sub-options altogether to force consistency in
new ports that implement machine.PWM.

ESP-NOW is a proprietary wireless communication protocol which supports
connectionless communication between ESP32 and ESP8266 devices, using
vendor specific WiFi frames. This commit adds support for this protocol
through a new `espnow` module.
This commit builds on original work done by @nickzoic, @shawwwn and with
contributions from @zoland. Features include:
- Use of (extended) ring buffers in py/ringbuf.[ch] for robust IO.
- Signal strength (RSSI) monitoring.
- Core support in `_espnow` C module, extended by `espnow.py` module.
- Asyncio support via `aioespnow.py` module (separate to this commit).
- Docs provided at `docs/library/espnow.rst`.
Methods available in espnow.ESPNow class are:
- active(True/False)
- config(): set rx buffer size, read timeout and tx rate
- recv()/irecv()/recvinto() to read incoming messages from peers
- send() to send messages to peer devices
- any() to test if a message is ready to read
- irq() to set callback for received messages
- stats() returns transfer stats:
(tx_pkts, tx_pkt_responses, tx_failures, rx_pkts, lost_rx_pkts)
- add_peer(mac, ...) registers a peer before sending messages
- get_peer(mac) returns peer info: (mac, lmk, channel, ifidx, encrypt)
- mod_peer(mac, ...) changes peer info parameters
- get_peers() returns all peer info tuples
- peers_table supports RSSI signal monitoring for received messages:
{peer1: [rssi, time_ms], peer2: [rssi, time_ms], ...}
ESP8266 is a pared down version of the ESP32 ESPNow support due to code
size restrictions and differences in the low-level API. See docs for
details.
Also included is a test suite in tests/multi_espnow. This tests basic
espnow data transfer, multiple transfers, various message sizes, encrypted
messages (pmk and lmk), and asyncio support.
Initial work is from https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/4115.
Initial import of code is from:
https://github.com/nickzoic/micropython/tree/espnow-4115.
Based on extmod/utime_mphal.c, with:
- a globals dict added
- time.localtime wrapper added
- time.time wrapper added
- time.time_ns function added
New configuration options are added for this module:
- MICROPY_PY_UTIME (enabled at basic features level)
- MICROPY_PY_UTIME_GMTIME_LOCALTIME_MKTIME
- MICROPY_PY_UTIME_TIME_TIME_NS

Helps prevent the filesystem from getting formatted by mistake, among other
things. For example, on a Pico board, entering Ctrl+D and Ctrl+C fast many
times will eventually wipe the filesystem (without warning or notice).
Further rationale: Ctrl+C is used a lot by automation scripts (eg mpremote)
and UI's (eg Mu, Thonny) to get the board into a known state. If the board
is not responding for a short time then it's not possible to know if it's
just a slow start up (eg in _boot.py), or an infinite loop in the main
application. The former should not be interrupted, but the latter should.
The only way to distinguish these two cases would be to wait "long enough",
and if there's nothing on the serial after "long enough" then assume it's
running the application and Ctrl+C should break out of it. But defining
"long enough" is impossible for all the different boards and their possible
behaviour. The solution in this commit is to make it so that frozen
start-up code cannot be interrupted by Ctrl+C. That code then effectively
acts like normal C start-up code, which also cannot be interrupted.
Note: on the stm32 port this was never seen as an issue because all
start-up code is in C. But now other ports start to put more things in
_boot.py and so this problem crops up.

This is a best-effort implementation of write polling. It's difficult to
do correctly because if there are multiple output streams (eg UART and USB
CDC) then some may not be writeable while others are. A full solution
should also have a return value from mp_hal_stdout_tx_strn(), returning the
number of bytes written to the stream(s). That's also hard to define.
The renesas-ra and stm32 ports already implement a similar best-effort
mechanism for write polling.
Fixes issue #11026.

Rather than duplicating the implementation of `network`, this allows
ESP8266 to use the shared one in extmod. In particular this gains access
to network.hostname and network.country.
Other than adding these two methods, there is no other user-visible change.

This allows:
$ make BOARD_DIR=path/to/board
to infer BOARD=board, rather than the previous behavior that required
additionally setting BOARD explicitly.
Also makes the same change for VARIANT_DIR -> VARIANT on Unix.

The PWM module now detects if the pin is open drain and if so switches it
to hardware open drain before starting the PWM.
The code that was explicitly turning off the open drain output during PWM
is also removed.
Together these changes allow driving external transistor high-current
switches with PWM.

This makes it so that all a port needs to do is set the relevant variables
and "include extmod.mk" and doesn't need to worry about adding anything to
OBJ, CFLAGS, SRC_QSTR, etc.
Make all extmod variables (src, flags, etc) private to extmod.mk.
Also move common/shared, extmod-related fragments (e.g. wiznet, cyw43,
bluetooth) into extmod.mk.
Now that SRC_MOD, CFLAGS_MOD, CXXFLAGS_MOD are unused by both extmod.mk
(and user-C-modules in a previous commit), remove all uses of them from
port makefiles.

Instead of being an explicit field, it's now a slot like all the other
methods.
This is a marginal code size improvement because most types have a make_new
(100/138 on PYBV11), however it improves consistency in how types are
declared, removing the special case for make_new.
Signed-off-by: Jim Mussared <jim.mussared@gmail.com>
The goal here is to remove a slot (making way to turn make_new into a slot)
as well as reduce code size by the ~40 references to mp_identity_getiter
and mp_stream_unbuffered_iter.
This introduces two new type flags:
- MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_ITERNEXT: This means that the "iter" slot in the
type is "iternext", and should use the identity getiter.
- MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_CUSTOM: This means that the "iter" slot is a pointer
to a mp_getiter_iternext_custom_t instance, which then defines both
getiter and iternext.
And a third flag that is the OR of both, MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_STREAM: This
means that the type should use the identity getiter, and
mp_stream_unbuffered_iter as iternext.
Finally, MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_GETITER is defined as a no-op flag to give
the default case where "iter" is "getiter".

Changes in this commit:
- Manifest include's now use the directory path where possible (no longer
necessary to include the manifest.py file explicitly).
- Add manifest.py for all drivers and components that are referenced by
port/board manifests.
- Replace all uses of freeze() with package()/module(), except for port and
board modules.
- Use opt=3 everywhere, for consistency and to reduce code size.
- Use require() instead of include() for all micropython-lib references.
- Remove support for optional board-level manifest.py in mimxrt port, to
make it behave the same as other ports (the board must set
FROZEN_MANIFEST to a custom manifest.py, which can optionally include the
default, port-level manifest).
- Also reinstates modules that were accidentally removed from the esp8266
512k build in fbe9417b90.

uart.flush()
flush() will wait until all characters but the last one have been sent.
It returns while the last character is sent. If needed, the calling
code has to add one character wait time. To avoid a permanent lock,
a timeout applies depending on the size of the FIFO and the baud rate.
ret = uart.txdone()
ret is True if no transfer is in progress. It returns already True when
the last byte of a transfer is sent.
ret is False otherwise.
Previously the desired output type was specified. Now make the type part
of the function name. Because this function is used in a few places this
saves code size due to smaller call-site.
This makes `mp_obj_new_str_type_from_vstr` a private function of objstr.c
(which is almost the only place where the output type isn't a compile-time
constant).
This saves ~140 bytes on PYBV11.

Since commit e65d1e69e8 there is no longer an
io.FileIO class, so this option is no longer needed.
This option also controlled whether or not files supported being opened in
binary mode (eg 'rb'), and could, if disabled, lead to confusion as to why
opening a file in binary mode silently did the wrong thing (it would just
open in text mode if MICROPY_PY_IO_FILEIO was disabled).
The various VFS implementations (POSIX, FAT, LFS) were the only places
where enabling this option made a difference, and in almost all cases where
one of these filesystems were enabled, MICROPY_PY_IO_FILEIO was also
enabled. So it makes sense to just unconditionally enable this feature
(ability to open a file in binary mode) in all cases, and so just remove
this config option altogether. That makes configuration simpler and means
binary file support always exists (and opening a file in binary mode is
arguably more fundamental than opening in text mode, so if anything should
be configurable then it should be the ability to open in text mode).

The ntptime module was previously only included in the ESP8266 port. This
commit factors that module out into the extmod directory, makes it support
different epochs, and includes it in the rp2 port.
For bare metal ARM & xtensa targets, passing -g will make the ELF file
larger but doesn't change the binary size. However, this means tools like
gdb, addr2line, etc can extract source-level information from the ELF.
Also standardise -ggdb to -g, these produce the exact same ELF file on
arm-none-eabi-gcc and will use DWARF format for all these ports.
This uses MP_REGISTER_ROOT_POINTER() to register all port-specific root

This separates extmod source files from `py.mk`. Previously, `py.mk`
assumed that every consumer of the py/ directory also wanted to include
extmod/. However, this is not the case. For example, building mpy-cross

The following changes are made:
- Guard entire file with MICROPY_PY_LWIP, so it can be included in the

modules).
- Add modlwip.c to list of all extmod source in py/py.mk and
extmod/extmod.cmake so all ports can easily use it.
- Move generic modlwip GIT_SUBMODULES build configuration code from
ports/rp2/CMakeLists.txt to extmod/extmod.cmake, so it can be reused by
other ports.
- Remove now unnecessary inclusion of modlwip.c in EXTMOD_SRC_C in esp8266
port, and in SRC_QSTR in mimxrt port.
