This simplifies allocating outside of the VM because the VM doesn't
take up all remaining memory by default.
On ESP we delegate to the IDF for allocations. For all other ports,
we use TLSF to manage an outer "port" heap. The IDF uses TLSF
internally and we use their fork for the other ports.
This also removes the dynamic C stack sizing. It wasn't often used
and is not possible with a fixed outer heap.
Fixes#8512. Fixes#7334.
micropython puts the pointer-ness into the typedef; we can put the
const-ness there too.
this reduces the delta to micropython; for instance, emitinlinextensa
and emitinlinethumb now match upstream.
* Enable dcache for OCRAM where the VM heap lives.
* Add CIRCUITPY_SWO_TRACE for pushing program counters out over the
SWO pin via the ITM module in the CPU. Exempt some functions from
instrumentation to reduce traffic and allow inlining.
* Place more functions in ITCM to handle errors using code in RAM-only
and speed up CP.
* Use SET and CLEAR registers for digitalio. The SDK does read, mask
and write.
* Switch to 2MiB reserved for CircuitPython code. Up from 1MiB.
* Run USB interrupts during flash erase and write.
* Allow storage writes from CP if the USB drive is disabled.
* Get perf bench tests running on CircuitPython and increase timeouts
so it works when instrumentation is active.
Removes:
* AUTORESET_DELAY_MS which never did anything but was introduced
somehow.
* CIRCUITPY_BOOT_BUTTON in all but one ESP board because they all have
them. There is a default based on the strapping pins.
* BOARD_USER_SAFE_MODE_ACTION because it was all the same for boards
with boot buttons. Now the safe mode code manages the message.
Sometimes we don't want the delay in the device's startup.
I used a simple flag, but now it also occurs to me that we could
instead make the wait time a define, and set it to 0 to disable it.
nRF CircuitPython boards will now provide the file transfer
service defined here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE_File_Transfer
USB capable boards will only advertise if previously bonded to a
device or if the reset button is pressed during the fast blue
flashes on start up. When pressed, the board will restart again but
the blue period will not flash.
Boards without USB will always advertise.
When previously bonded, the advertisement is private so that no
other peers can connect. If advertising publicly, the tx power is
lowered to reduce the likelihood of bonding from a distance.
This PR also fixes issues with loading identities of bonded peers
so that our address can now be resolved and we can resolve others'
addresses when scanning.
This also removes the need to pin share because we don't use the
status LED while user code is running.
The status flashes fallback to the HW_STATUS LED if no RGB LED is
present. Each status has a unique blink pattern as well.
One caveat is the REPL state. In order to not pin share, we set the
RGB color once. PWM and single color will be shutoff immediately but
DotStars and NeoPixels will hold the color until the user overrides
it.
Fixes#4133
The RP2040 is new microcontroller from Raspberry Pi that features
two Cortex M0s and eight PIO state machines that are good for
crunching lots of data. It has 264k RAM and a built in UF2
bootloader too.
