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.
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.
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.
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.
UART object now uses a stream-like interface: read, readall, readline,
readinto, readchar, write, writechar.
Timeouts are configured when the UART object is initialised, using
timeout and timeout_char keyword args.
The object includes optional read buffering, using interrupts. You can set
the buffer size dynamically using read_buf_len keyword arg. A size of 0
disables buffering.
Teensy doesn't need to worry about overflows since all of
its timers are only 16-bit.
For PWM, the pulse width needs to be able to vary from 0..period+1
(pulse-width == period+1 corresponds to 100% PWM)
I couldn't test the 0xffffffff cases since we can't currently get a
period that big in python. With a prescaler of 0, that corresponds
to a freq of 0.039 (i.e. cycle every 25.56 seconds), and we can't
set that using freq or period.
I also tested both stmhal and teensy with floats disabled, which
required a few other code changes to compile.
Fix stmhal and teensy print routines to report actual prescaler an period.
Fix teensy build to use soft-float
Add USE_ARDUINO_TOOLCHAIN option to teensy build
sys.exit always raises SystemExit so doesn't need a special
implementation for each port. If C exit() is really needed, use the
standard os._exit function.
Also initialise mp_sys_path and mp_sys_argv in teensy port.
These functions are generally 1 machine instruction, and are used in
critical code, so makes sense to have them inline.
Also leave these functions uninverted (ie 0 means enable, 1 means
disable) and provide macro constants if you really need to distinguish
the states. This makes for smaller code as well (combined with
inlining).
Applied to teensy port as well.
Because (for Thumb) a function pointer has the LSB set, pointers to
dynamic functions in RAM (eg native, viper or asm functions) were not
being traced by the GC. This patch is a comprehensive fix for this.
Addresses issue #820.
Converts generted pins to use qstrs instead of string pointers.
This patch also adds the following functions:
pyb.Pin.names()
pyb.Pin.af_list()
pyb.Pin.gpio()
dir(pyb.Pin.board) and dir(pyb.Pin.cpu) also produce useful results.
pyb.Pin now takes kw args.
pyb.Pin.__str__ now prints more useful information about the pin
configuration.
I found the following functions in my boot.py to be useful:
```python
def pins():
for pin_name in dir(pyb.Pin.board):
pin = pyb.Pin(pin_name)
print('{:10s} {:s}'.format(pin_name, str(pin)))
def af():
for pin_name in dir(pyb.Pin.board):
pin = pyb.Pin(pin_name)
print('{:10s} {:s}'.format(pin_name, str(pin.af_list())))
```
qstr_init is always called exactly before mp_init, so makes sense to
just have mp_init call it. Similarly with
mp_init_emergency_exception_buf. Doing this makes the ports simpler and
less error prone (ie they can no longer forget to call these).
Conflicts:
stmhal/pin_named_pins.c
stmhal/readline.c
Renamed HAL_H to MICROPY_HAL_H. Made stmhal/mphal.h which intends to
define the generic Micro Python HAL, which in stmhal sits above the ST
HAL.
As we are building with -nostdlib gcc features like the stack protector
will fail linking, because the failure handlers are in gcc's internal
libs. Such features are implicitly disabled during compilation when
-nostdlib is used in CFLAGS too.

The autogenerated header files have been moved about, and an extra
include dir has been added, which means you can give a custom
BUILD=newbuilddir option to make, and everything "just works"
Also tidied up the way the different Makefiles build their include-
directory flags
Full CPython compatibility with this requires actually parsing the
input so far collected, and if it fails parsing due to lack of tokens,
then continue collecting input. It's not worth doing it this way. Not
having compatibility at this level does not hurt the goals of Micro
Python.
Mostly just a global search and replace. Except rt_is_true which
becomes mp_obj_is_true.
Still would like to tidy up some of the names, but this will do for now.
Each built-in exception is now a type, with base type BaseException.
C exceptions are created by passing a pointer to the exception type to
make an instance of. When raising an exception from the VM, an
instance is created automatically if an exception type is raised (as
opposed to an exception instance).
Exception matching (RT_BINARY_OP_EXCEPTION_MATCH) is now proper.
Handling of parse error changed to match new exceptions.
mp_const_type renamed to mp_type_type for consistency.
Ultimately all static strings should be qstr. This entry in the type
structure is only used for printing error messages (to tell the type of
the bad argument), and printing objects that don't supply a .print method.
You can now append a zipfile (containining uncomressed python sources)
to the micropython.hex file.
Use MEMZIP_DIR=directory when you call make, or set that in your
environment to include a different tree of source files.
Added sample /boot.py, /src/main.py, /test.py and /src/test.py files.
Added run command so that you can execute scripts from REPL (until import is implemented).
Added build directory to .gitignore
