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.
* No weak link for modules. It only impacts _os and _time and is
already disabled for non-full builds.
* Turn off PA00 and PA01 because they are the crystal on the Metro
M0 Express.
* Change ejected default to false to move it to BSS. It is set on
USB connection anyway.
* Set sinc_filter to const. Doesn't help flash but keeps it out of
RAM.
This creates a common safe mode mechanic that ports can share.
As a result, the nRF52 now has safe mode support as well.
The common safe mode adds a 700ms delay at startup where a reset
during that window will cause a reset into safe mode. This window
is designated by a yellow status pixel and flashing the single led
three times.
A couple NeoPixel fixes are included for the nRF52 as well.
Fixes#1034. Fixes#990. Fixes#615.
This started while adding USB MIDI support (and descriptor support is
in this change.) When seeing that I'd have to implement the MIDI class
logic twice, once for atmel-samd and once for nrf, I decided to refactor
the USB stack so its shared across ports. This has led to a number of
changes that remove items from the ports folder and move them into
supervisor.
Furthermore, we had external SPI flash support for nrf pending so I
factored out the connection between the usb stack and the flash API as
well. This PR also includes the QSPI support for nRF.
This introduces a new spi_flash_api.h that works for both SPI and
QSPI. The previous spi_flash functions are now called external_flash
to minimize confusion.
