The new block protocol is:
- readblocks(self, n, buf)
- writeblocks(self, n, buf)
- ioctl(self, cmd, arg)
The new ioctl method handles the old sync and count methods, as well as
a new "get sector size" method.
The old protocol is still supported, and used if the device doesn't have
the ioctl method.
Per the previously discussed plan. mount() still stays backward-compatible,
and new mkfs() is rought and takes more args than needed. But is a step
in a forward direction.
If MICROPY_VFS_FAT is defined, mp_type_fileio & mp_type_textio won't be
defined, as these may be alredy defined elsewhere. The idea is to have
compartmentalized VFS FatFs class, which can work in parallel with some
other "main" filesystem. E.g., for unix port, mp_type_fileio, etc. will
be defined for the main POSIX filesystem, while stmhal/file.c will be
a self-contained VFS file class.
Move definition of mp_builtin_open_obj to a separate module, then file.c
becomes more or less compartmentalized FatFs file class, which can be used
together with file class implementations for other (V)FSes.
For these 3 bitwise operations there are now fast functions for
positive-only arguments, and general functions for arbitrary sign
arguments (the fast functions are the existing implementation).
By default the fast functions are not used (to save space) and instead
the general functions are used for all operations.
Enable MICROPY_OPT_MPZ_BITWISE to use the fast functions for positive
arguments.
Previous to this patch the DMA was setup and then the I2C address sent.
If the I2C address sending failed (eg no I2C device on the bus) then the
DMA was left in an inconsistent state.
This patch moves the DMA setup to after a successful sending of the I2C
address(es).
See issue #1765.
USB CDC no longer needs TIM3 (which was originally used for LED(4) PWM)
and so TIM3 has been freed for general purpose use by the user. Hence
LED(4) lost its PWM capabilities.
This patch reinstates the PWM capabilities using a semi-generic piece
of code which allows to configure a timer and PWM channel to use for any
LED. But the PWM capability is only configured if the LED is set to an
intensity between 1 and 254 (ie only when needed). In that case the
relevant timer is configured for PWM. It's up to the user to make sure
the timers are not used if PWM is active.
This patch also makes sure that PWM LEDs are turned off using standard
GPIO when calling led.off() or led.intensity(0), instead of just setting
the PWM counter to zero.
TIM3 is no longer used by USB CDC for triggering outgoing data, so we
can now make it available to the user.
PWM fading on LED(4) is now gone, but will be reinstated in a new way.
Previous to this patch the USB CDC driver used TIM3 to trigger the
sending of outgoing data over USB serial. This patch changes the
behaviour so that the USB SOF interrupt is used to trigger the processing
of the sending. This reduces latency and increases bandwidth of outgoing
data.
Thanks to Martin Fischer, aka @hoihu, for the idea and initial prototype.
See PR #1713.
Calling it from mp_init() is too late for some ports (like Unix), and leads
to incomplete stack frame being captured, with following GC issues. So, now
each port should call mp_stack_ctrl_init() on its own, ASAP after startup,
and taking special precautions so it really was called before stack variables
get allocated (because if such variable with a pointer is missed, it may lead
to over-collecting (typical symptom is segfaulting)).
Functions added are:
- randint
- randrange
- choice
- random
- uniform
They are enabled with configuration variable
MICROPY_PY_URANDOM_EXTRA_FUNCS, which is disabled by default. It is
enabled for unix coverage build and stmhal.
This allows FROZEN_DIR=some-directory to be specified on the make
command line, which will then add all of the files contained within
the indicated frozen directory as frozen files in the image.
There is no change in flash/ram usage if not using the feature.
This is especially useful on smaller MCUs (like the 401) which only
has 64K flash file system.
Seedable and reproducible pseudo-random number generator. Implemented
functions are getrandbits(n) (n <= 32) and seed().
The algorithm used is Yasmarang by Ilya Levin:

The first argument to the type.make_new method is naturally a uPy type,
and all uses of this argument cast it directly to a pointer to a type
structure. So it makes sense to just have it a pointer to a type from
the very beginning (and a const pointer at that). This patch makes
such a change, and removes all unnecessary casting to/from mp_obj_t.
Adds a lot of code, makes IRQs a bit less efficient, but is very useful
for debugging. Usage: pyb.irq_stats() returns a memory view that can be
read and written, eg:
list(pyb.irq_stats())
pyb.irq_stats()[0]
pyb.irq_stats()[0] = 0
The patch provides general IRQ_ENTER() and IRQ_EXIT() macros that can be
modified to provide further IRQ statistics if desired.
To let unix port implement "machine" functionality on Python level, and
keep consistent naming in other ports (baremetal ports will use magic
module "symlinking" to still load it on "import machine").
Fixes#1701.
Similar to recently added feature in unix port: if event triggers for an
objects, its polling flags are automatically reset, so it won't be polled
until they are set again explicitly.
Previously, SPI was configured by a board defining MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_SPIx
to 0 or 1. Now, the board should define MICROPY_HW_SPIx_SCK, MISO, MOSI
and NSS. This makes it the same as how I2C is configured.
This is refactoring to enable support for the two USB PHYs available on
some STM32F4 processors to be used at the same time. The F405/7 & F429
have two USB PHYs, others such as the F411 only have one PHY.
This has been tested separately on a pyb10 (USB_FS PHY) and F429DISC
(USB_HS PHY) to be able to invoke a REPL/USB. I have modified a PYBV10
to support two PHYs.
The long term objective is to support a 2nd USB PHY to be brought up as a
USB HOST, and possibly a single USB PHY to be OTG.
Currently nlr_jump_fail prints that there was an uncaught exception
but nothing about the exception.
This patch causes nlr_jump_failed to try to print the exception.
Given that printf was called on the line above, I think that
the call to mp_obj_print_exception has about as much likelyhood
of succeeding as the printf does.
When you use the USER button to perform a filesystem reset
at boot time then it wipes out the filesystem and creates
a new boot.py and main.py. With this patch these files are
executed after formatting, ensuring that pyb and machine modules
get imported.
This is a hack to free up TIM3 so that it can be used by the user.
Instead we use the PVD irq to call the USB VCP polling function, and
trigger it from SysTick (so SysTick itself does not do any processing).
The feature is enabled for pyboard lite only, since it lacks timers.
Consider the following scenario: SD card is being read by pyboard; USB
irq comes in for MSC read request; SD card needs to be read from within
USB irq while SD read is already ongoing. Such contention needs to be
avoided.
This patch provides a simple solution, to raise the irq priority above
that of the USB irq during SD DMA transfers. Pyboard and PC can now
read from the SD card at the same time (well, reads are interleaved).
In non-blocking mode (timeout=0), uart.write() can now transmit all of its
data without raising an exception. uart.read() also works correctly in
this mode.
As part of this patch, timout_char now has a minimum value which is long
enough to transfer 1 character.
Addresses issue #1533.
With these you can now do things like:
stm.mem32[0x20000000] = 0x80000000
and read 32-bit values. You can also read all the way to the end
of memory using either stm.mem32[0xfffffffc] or stm.mem32[-4].
IRQs shouldn't use mem32 at all since they'd fail if the top 2 bits
weren't equal, so IRQs should be using 16-bit I/O.
The STMCube examples define both USE_USB_HS and USE_USB_HS_IN_FS when they
use the HS in FS mode.
The STM32F401 doesn't have a USB_HS at all, so the USB_OTG_HS instance
doesn't even exist.
The UARTs have no FIFOs, so if interrupts are disabled
for more than a character time (10 usec at 1 Mbit/sec)
then characters get dropped.
The overhead for handling a UART ISR is about 0.5 usec,
so even at baud rates of 1 Mbit/sec this only corresponds
to about 5% of the CPU. Lower baud rates will have less
of an impact.
uwTick can only change in the SysTick IRQ so this IRQ function does not
need to take special care with this variable. It's important to make
this IRQ function as efficient as possible.
Using SysTick to do the counting and dispatch of the flash storage idle
handler is more efficient than requiring a dedicated hardware timer.
No new counter is needed, just the existing uwTick variable. The
processing is not actually done in the SysTick IRQ, it is deferred to
the flash IRQ (which runs at lower priority).
Turning on each DMA block increases the current consumption
by about 8 mA. This code adds an idle timer for each DMA
block and turns off the clocks when no streams are in use
for 128 msec. Having a small timeout allows for improved
performance when back-to-back transfers are being performed.
The 128 msec is basically a guess.
- added some comments to explain the priority/sub-priority.
- adds an entry for SDIO (to be used in a later patch)
- increases DMA priority above USB so that DMA can be used
for sdcard I/O when using USB Mass Storage.
If RTC is already running at boot then it's left alone. Otherwise, RTC is
started at boot but startup function returns straight away. RTC startup
is then finished the first time it is used. Fallback to LSI if LSE fails
to start in a certain time.
Also included:
MICROPY_HW_CLK_LAST_FREQ
hold pyb.freq() parameters in RTC backup reg
MICROPY_HW_RTC_USE_US
option to present datetime sub-seconds in microseconds
MICROPY_HW_RTC_USE_CALOUT
option to enable RTC calibration output
CLK_LAST_FREQ and RTC_USE_CALOUT are enabled for PYBv1.0.
In new hardware API, these classes implement master modes of interfaces,
and "mode" parameter is not accepted. Trying to implement new HW API
in terms of older pyb module leaves variuos corner cases:
In new HW API, I2C(1) means "I2C #1 in master mode" (? depends on
interpretation), while in old API, it means "I2C #1, with no settings
changes".
For I2C class, it's easy to make mode optional, because that's last
positional param, but for SPI, there's "baudrate" after it (which
is inconsistent with I2C, which requires "baudrate" to be kwonly-arg).
This makes select.poll() interface fully compatible with CpYthon. Also, make
their numeric values of these options compatible with Linux (and by extension,
with iBCS2 standard, which jopefully means compatibility with other Unices too).
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
This prevents the loss of RTC time when exiting from standby mode, since
the RTC is paused while it is being re-inited and this loses about 120ms.
Thanks to @chuckbook for the patch.
This file is actually port-generic and should be moved out of stmhal/ .
Other ports already use it, and thus it should use mp_hal_ticks_ms()
right away.
These MPHAL functions are intended to replace previously used HAL_Delay(),
HAL_GetTick() to provide better naming and MPHAL separation (they are
fully equivalent otherwise).
Also, refactor extmod/modlwip to use them.
Scenario: module1 depends on some common file from lib/, so specifies it
in its SRC_MOD, and the same situation with module2, then common file
from lib/ eventually ends up listed twice in $(OBJ), which leads to link
errors.
Make is equipped to deal with such situation easily, quoting the manual:
"The value of $^ omits duplicate prerequisites, while $+ retains them and
preserves their order." So, just use $^ consistently in all link targets.
Instead of return 0, which means EOF. There's no good way to detect EOF on
continuously active bus like UART, and treat timeout as just temporary
unvailability of data. .read() method of UART object will return None in
this case (instead of 0, which again measn EOF). This is fully compliant
with unix port.
This patch allows to configure the DAC resolution in the constructor and
in the init function, eg:
dac = DAC(1, bits=12).
The default resolution is 8 bits for backwards compatibility. The bits
sets the maximum value accepted by write and write_timed methods, being
2**bits - 1.
When using write_timed with 12-bit resolution, the input buffer is
treated as an unsigned half-word array, typecode 'H'.
See PR #1130 for discussion.
Use CTRL-E to enter paste mode. Prompt starts with "===" and accepts
all characters verbatim, echoing them back. Only control characters are
CTRL-C which cancels the input and returns to normal REPL, and CTRL-D
which ends the input and executes it. The input is executed as though
it were a file. The input is not added to the prompt history.
This fix adds PIDs 9801 and 9802 to the pybcdc.inf file.
When in CDC only mode, it presents itself as a Communcations
device rather than as a composite device. Presenting as a
composite device with only the CDC interface seems to confuse
windows.
To test and make sure that the correct pybcdc.inf was being used,
I used USBDeview from http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
to uninstall any old pyboard drivers (Use Control-F and search
for pyboard). I found running USBDeview as administrator worked best.
Installing the driver in CDC+MSC mode first is recommended (since the
pybcdc.inf file in on the internal flash drive). Then when you switch
modes everything seems to work properly.
I used https://github.com/dhylands/upy-examples/blob/master/boot_switch.py
to easily switch the pyboard between the various USB modes for testing.
With this patch parse nodes are allocated sequentially in chunks. This
reduces fragmentation of the heap and prevents waste at the end of
individually allocated parse nodes.
Saves roughly 20% of RAM during parse stage.
There is an issue sending 1 byte on the SPI bus using DMA, but it only
occurs when the transmit is done for the first time after initialising
the SPI and DMA peripherals. All other cases (sending 2 or more bytes,
doing send_recv, doing recv first) work okay. We sidestep this issue by
using polling (not DMA) for all 1 byte transfers. This is fine because
a 1 byte transfer can't be interrupted and doesn't need the benefits of
DMA (and using polling for this case is more efficient).
Resolves#1456.
Fetch the current usb mode and return a string representation when
pyb.usb_mode() is called with no args. The possible string values are interned
as qstr's. None will be returned if an incorrect mode is set.
The DFU bootloader on the ST32F7 chip changes the clocksource
for various possible boot sources (UART1, UART3, I2C1-3).
This commit resets those clock sources back to their cold
reset values.
USB serial is now working for F7.
Internal file storage is now working for F7. The flash is laid out a bit
differently to the F4 - 4 x 32K, 1 x 128K with the rest 256K, so the
internal storage is 96K.
Added more pind definitions for STM32F7DISC board. Made USART1 be the
default HWUART repl. The STLINK usb connector also looks like a USB
serial port which is attached to USART1 on the STM32F7DISC.
Extracted GPIO clock enable logic into mp_hal_gpio_clock_enable
and called from anyplace which might need to use GPIO functions
on ports other than A-D.
Thanks to Dave Hylands for the patch.
All files were converted to linux line endings.
All trailing whitespace was removed using:
for f in f7/inc/* f7/src/*; do sed --in-place 's/[[:space:]]\+$//' $f; done
All non-ascii chars in comments were replaced with ascii equivalents or
removed.
This allows the DAC to use a user-specified Timer for the triggering
(instead of the default Timer(6)), while still supporting original
behaviour.
Addresses issues #1129 and #1388.
Only those files which are needed by the stmhal port are added.
Also includes a dummy file (stm32f2xx_hal_pcd_ex.c) to keep the build
system the same for f4 and f2 MCU series.
This is in preparation for supporting other MCU series, such as
STM32F2xx. Directory structure for the HAL is now hal/f4/{inc,src},
where "f4" will in the future be different for other series.
HAL source/header files that are not use are removed to reduce the size
of the code.
When enabled this allows the internal storage to be split over 2
contiguous regions of flash (two segments), and so the storage can be
increased.
This option is disabled by default, giving original behaviour.
This removes hard-coded DMA init params from dma_init(), instead defining
these parameters in a DMA_InitTypeDef struct that gets passed as an
argument to dma_init()
This makes dma_init more generic so it can be used for I2S and SD Card,
which require different initialization parameters.
If IRQs are disabled then the USB CDC buffer will never be
drained/filled and the sys-tick timer will never increase, so we should
not busy wait in this case.
mp_obj_get_int_truncated will raise a TypeError if the argument is not
an integral type. Use mp_obj_int_get_truncated only when you know the
argument is a small or big int.
esp8266 port now has working raw and friendly REPL, as well as working
soft reset (CTRL-D at REPL, or raise SystemExit).
tools/pyboard.py now works with esp8266 port.
To build:
make BOARD=ESPRUINO_PICO
To deploy: short the BOOT0/BTN contact on the back of the board (eg by
drawing over it with a graphite pencil), then hold down BTN while
inserting the board into the USB port. The board should then enter DFU
mode, and the firmware can be downloaded using:
make BOARD=ESPRUINO_PICO deploy
Each board now needs an mpconfigboard.mk file which defines AF_FILE and
LD_FILE.
Also moved stm32f405.ld to boards/ directory to keep things organised.
Previous to this patch the printing mechanism was a bit of a tangled
mess. This patch attempts to consolidate printing into one interface.
All (non-debug) printing now uses the mp_print* family of functions,
mainly mp_printf. All these functions take an mp_print_t structure as
their first argument, and this structure defines the printing backend
through the "print_strn" function of said structure.
Printing from the uPy core can reach the platform-defined print code via
two paths: either through mp_sys_stdout_obj (defined pert port) in
conjunction with mp_stream_write; or through the mp_plat_print structure
which uses the MP_PLAT_PRINT_STRN macro to define how string are printed
on the platform. The former is only used when MICROPY_PY_IO is defined.
With this new scheme printing is generally more efficient (less layers
to go through, less arguments to pass), and, given an mp_print_t*
structure, one can call mp_print_str for efficiency instead of
mp_printf("%s", ...). Code size is also reduced by around 200 bytes on
Thumb2 archs.
When setting usb_mode to "HID", hid config object now has
polling-interval (in ms) as the 4th element. It mmust now be a 5-tuple
of the form:
(subclass, protocol, max_packet_len, polling_interval, report_desc)
The mouse and keyboard defaults have polling interval at 8ms.
There are lots of cosmetic changes, but this release brings a very
important bug fix:
- Fixed f_unlink() does not remove cluster chain of the file.
With R0.10c if you try to write a file that is too large to fit in the
free space of the drive, the operation fails, you delete the incomplete
file, and it seems to be erased, but the space is not really freed,
because any subsequent write operations fail because the drive is
"still" full. The only way to recover from this is by formatting the
drive. I can confirm that R0.11 fixes the problem.
Given that there's already support for "fixed table" maps, which are
essentially ordered maps, the implementation of OrderedDict just extends
"fixed table" maps by adding an "is ordered" flag and add/remove
operations, and reuses 95% of objdict code, just making methods tolerant
to both dict and OrderedDict.
Some things are missing so far, like CPython-compatible repr and comparison.
OrderedDict is Disabled by default; enabled on unix and stmhal ports.
These allow to fine-tune the compiler to select whether it optimises
tuple assignments of the form a, b = c, d and a, b, c = d, e, f.
Sensible defaults are provided.
In particular, make sure that the globals are all initialized
before enabling the interrupt, and also make sure that the timer
interrupt has been initialied before enabling the NVIC.
The implementation of these functions is very large (order 4k) and they
are rarely used, so we don't enable them by default.
They are however enabled in stmhal and unix, since we have the room.
Apparently the order of interface numbers should be sequential and
increasing in a config descriptor. So as to retain compatibility with
Windows drivers for the CDC+MSC and CDC+HID modes, we move the CDC
configs to the end of the descriptors, instead of changing the interface
numbers.
See PR #957 for background.
To enable parsing constants more efficiently, mp_parse should be allowed
to raise an exception, and mp_compile can already raise a MemoryError.
So these functions need to be protected by an nlr push/pop block.
This patch adds that feature in all places. This allows to simplify how
mp_parse and mp_compile are called: they now raise an exception if they
have an error and so explicit checking is not needed anymore.
There was a stray factor of 2 (VBAT_DIV) that looks like it was copied incorrectly from the read_core_vbat() function.
The factor exists in read_core_vbat() because VBAT is measured through a 2:1 voltage divider.
read_core_vref now returns values around 1.21V (assuming that external reference voltage is 3.3V) which is in line with the datasheet values.
See comment at http://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=533&p=2991#p2991
This cleans up vstr so that it's a pure "variable buffer", and the user
can decide whether they need to add a terminating null byte. In most
places where vstr is used, the vstr did not need to be null terminated
and so this patch saves code size, a tiny bit of RAM, and makes vstr
usage more efficient. When null termination is needed it must be
done explicitly using vstr_null_terminate.
It uses RAM and on pyboard we are generally tight on RAM, so disable
this optimisation for general builds. If users need the speed then
they can build their own version. Maybe in the future we can have
different versions of pyboard firmware built with different tradeoffs.
accept might raise an exception, in which case the new socket is not
fully created. It has a finaliser so will run close() method when GC'd.
Before this patch close would try to close an invalid socket. Now
fixed.
setsockopt took address of stack value which became out of scope. Now
fixed.
With this patch str/bytes construction is streamlined. Always use a
vstr to build a str/bytes object. If the size is known beforehand then
use vstr_init_len to allocate only required memory. Otherwise use
vstr_init and the vstr will grow as needed. Then use
mp_obj_new_str_from_vstr to create a str/bytes object using the vstr
memory.
Saves code ROM: 68 bytes on stmhal, 108 bytes on bare-arm, and 336 bytes
on unix x64.
pyexec_friendly_repl_process_char() and friends, useful for ports which
integrate into existing cooperative multitasking system.
Unlike readline() refactor before, this was implemented in less formal,
trial&error process, minor functionality regressions are still known
(like soft&hard reset support). So, original loop-based pyexec_friendly_repl()
is left intact, specific implementation selectable by config setting.
This config option is for the USB OTG pin, pin A10. This is used on
some boards but not others. Eg PYBv3 uses PA10 for LED(2), so it
shouldn't be used for OTG ID (actually PA10 is multiplexed on this
board, but defaults to LED(2)).
Partially addresses issue #1059.
Compiler optimises lookup of module.CONST when enabled (an existing
feature). Disabled by default; enabled for unix, windows, stmhal.
Costs about 100 bytes ROM on stmhal.
This allows to enable mem-info functions in micropython module, even if
MICROPY_MEM_STATS is not enabled. In this case, you get mem_info and
qstr_info but not mem_{total,current,peak}.
Since all currently supported boards use pin A9 for this function, the
value of the macro MICROPY_HW_USB_VBUS_DETECT_PIN is not actually used,
just the fact that it is defined.
Addresses issue #1048.
This is a simple optimisation inspired by JITing technology: we cache in
the bytecode (using 1 byte) the offset of the last successful lookup in
a map. This allows us next time round to check in that location in the
hash table (mp_map_t) for the desired entry, and if it's there use that
entry straight away. Otherwise fallback to a normal map lookup.
Works for LOAD_NAME, LOAD_GLOBAL, LOAD_ATTR and STORE_ATTR opcodes.
On a few tests it gives >90% cache hit and greatly improves speed of
code.
Disabled by default. Enabled for unix and stmhal ports.
This patch consolidates all global variables in py/ core into one place,
in a global structure. Root pointers are all located together to make
GC tracing easier and more efficient.
acoshf, asinhf, atanhf were added from musl. mathsincos.c was
split up into its original, separate files (from newlibe-nano-2).
tan was added.
All of the important missing float functions are now implemented,
and pyboard now passes tests/float/math_fun.py (finally!).
This patch adds a configuration option (MICROPY_CAN_OVERRIDE_BUILTINS)
which, when enabled, allows to override all names within the builtins
module. A builtins override dict is created the first time the user
assigns to a name in the builtins model, and then that dict is searched
first on subsequent lookups. Note that this implementation doesn't
allow deleting of names.
This patch also does some refactoring of builtins code, creating the
modbuiltins.c file.
Addresses issue #959.
The function is modeled after traceback.print_exception(), but unbloated,
and put into existing module to save overhead on adding another module.
Compliant traceback.print_exception() is intended to be implemented in
micropython-lib in terms of sys.print_exception().
This change required refactoring mp_obj_print_exception() to take pfenv_t
interface arguments.
Addresses #751.
Remove include of stm32f4xx_hal.h, replace by include of MICROPY_HAL_H
where needed, and make it compile without float support. This makes
these 3 modules much more generic and usable by other ports.
mp_obj_int_get_truncated is used as a "fast path" int accessor that
doesn't check for overflow and returns the int truncated to the machine
word size, ie mp_int_t.
Use mp_obj_int_get_truncated to fix struct.pack when packing maximum word
sized values.
Addresses issues #779 and #998.
mp_lexer_t type is exposed, mp_token_t type is removed, and simple lexer
functions (like checking current token kind) are now inlined.
This saves 784 bytes ROM on 32-bit unix, 348 bytes on stmhal, and 460
bytes on bare-arm. It also saves a tiny bit of RAM since mp_lexer_t
is a bit smaller. Also will run a bit more efficiently.
This patch overhauls the network driver interface. A generic NIC must
provide a set of C-level functions to implement low-level socket control
(eg socket, bind, connect, send, recv). Doing this, the network and
usocket modules can then use such a NIC to implement proper socket
control at the Python level.
This patch also updates the CC3K and WIZNET5K drivers to conform to the
new interface, and fixes some bugs in the drivers. They now work
reasonably well.
pyb.delay and pyb.udelay now use systick if IRQs are enabled, otherwise
they use a busy loop. Thus they work correctly when IRQs are disabled.
The busy loop is computed from the current CPU frequency, so works no
matter the CPU frequency.
The reason for having this delay is to reduce power consumption at the
REPL (HAL_Delay calls __WFI to idle the CPU). But stdin_rx_chr has a
__WFI in it anyway, so this delay call is not needed.
By removing this call, the readline input can consume characters much
more quickly (before was limited to 1000 chrs/s), and has much reduced
dependency on the specific port.
Also restrict higher frequencies to have a VCO_OUT frequency below
432MHz, as specified in the datasheet.
Docs improved to list allowed frequencies, and explain about USB
stability.
This is experimental support. API is subject to changes. RTS/CTS
available on UART(2) and UART(3) only. Use as:
uart = pyb.UART(2, 9600, flow=pyb.UART.RTS | pyb.UART.CTS)
This patch also enables non-blocking streams on stmhal port.
One can now make a USB-UART pass-through function:
def pass_through(usb, uart):
while True:
select.select([usb, uart], [], [])
if usb.any():
uart.write(usb.read(256))
if uart.any():
usb.write(uart.read(256))
pass_through(pyb.USB_VCP(), pyb.UART(1, 9600))
Improvements are:
2 ctrl-C's are now needed to truly kill running script on pyboard, so
make CDC interface allow multiple ctrl-C's through at once (ie sending
b'\x03\x03' to pyboard now counts as 2 ctrl-C's).
ctrl-C in friendly-repl can now stop multi-line input.
In raw-repl mode, use ctrl-D to indicate end of running script, and also
end of any error message. Thus, output of raw-repl is always at least 2
ctrl-D's and it's much easier to parse.
pyboard.py is now a bit faster, handles exceptions from pyboard better
(prints them and exits with exit code 1), prints out the pyboard output
while the script is running (instead of waiting till the end), and
allows to follow the output of a previous script when run with no
arguments.
This allows to implement KeyboardInterrupt on unix, and a much safer
ctrl-C in stmhal port. First ctrl-C is a soft one, with hope that VM
will notice it; second ctrl-C is a hard one that kills anything (for
both unix and stmhal).
One needs to check for a pending exception in the VM only for jump
opcodes. Others can't produce an infinite loop (infinite recursion is
caught by stack check).
TIM2_CH1_ETR is really bundling 2 functions to the same pin:
TIM2_CH1 (where its used as a channel)
TIM2_ETR (where iss used as an external trigger).
I fixed most of these a while back, but it looks like I missed this one.
