This patch allows a given board to configure which pins are used for the
CAN peripherals, in a similar way to all the other bus peripherals (I2C,
UART, SPI). To enable CAN on a board the mpconfigboard.h file should
define (for example):
#define MICROPY_HW_CAN1_TX (pin_B9)
#define MICROPY_HW_CAN1_RX (pin_B8)
#define MICROPY_HW_CAN2_TX (pin_B13)
#define MICROPY_HW_CAN2_RX (pin_B12)
And the board config file should no longer define MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_CAN.
The individual union members (like SPI, I2C) are never used, only the
generic "reg" entry is. And the union names can clash with macro
definitions in the HAL so better to remove them.
The only configuration that changes with this patch is that on L4 MCUs the
clock prescaler changed from ADC_CLOCK_ASYNC_DIV2 to ADC_CLOCK_ASYNC_DIV1
for the ADCAll object. This should be ok.
A value of DISABLE for EOCSelection is invalid. This would have been
interpreted instead as ADC_EOC_SEQ_CONV, but really it should be
ADC_EOC_SINGLE_CONV for the uses in this code. So this has been fixed.
ExternalTrigConv should be ADC_SOFTWARE_START because all ADC
conversions are started by software. This is now fixed.
This can be used to select the output buffer behaviour of the DAC. The
default values are chosen to retain backwards compatibility with existing
behaviour.
Thanks to @peterhinch for the initial idea to add this feature.
This patch moves the implementation of stream closure from a dedicated
method to the ioctl of the stream protocol, for each type that implements
closing. The benefits of this are:
1. Rounds out the stream ioctl function, which already includes flush,
seek and poll (among other things).
2. Makes calling mp_stream_close() on an object slightly more efficient
because it now no longer needs to lookup the close method and call it,
rather it just delegates straight to the ioctl function (if it exists).
3. Reduces code size and allows future types that implement the stream
protocol to be smaller because they don't need a dedicated close method.
Code size reduction is around 200 bytes smaller for x86 archs and around
30 bytes smaller for the bare-metal archs.
The main() function has a predefined type in C which is not so useful for
embedded contexts. This patch renames main() to stm32_main() so we can
define our own type signature for this function. The type signature is
defined to have a single argument which is the "reset_mode" and is passed
through as r0 from Reset_Handler. This allows, for example, a bootloader
to pass through information into the main application.
The Reset_Handler needs to copy the data section and zero the BSS, and
these operations should be as optimised as possible to reduce start up
time. The versions provided in this patch are about 2x faster (on a Cortex
M4) than the previous implementations.
Rather than pin objects themselves. The actual object is now pin_X_obj and
defines are provided so that pin_X is &pin_X_obj. This makes it so that
code that uses pin objects doesn't need to know if they are literals or
objects (that need pointers taken) or something else. They are just
entities that can be passed to the map_hal_pin_xxx functions. This mirrors
how the core handles constant objects (eg mp_const_none which is
&mp_const_none_obj) and allows for the possibility of different
implementations of the pin layer.
For example, prior to this patch there was the following:
extern const pin_obj_t pin_A0;
#define pyb_pin_X1 pin_A0
...
mp_hal_pin_high(&pin_A0);
and now there is:
extern const pin_obj_t pin_A0_obj;
#define pin_A0 (&pin_A0_obj)
#define pyb_pin_X1 pin_A0
...
mp_hal_pin_high(pin_A0);
This patch should have minimal effect on board configuration files. The
only change that may be needed is if a board has .c files that configure
pins.
This patch forces a board to explicitly define TEXT1_ADDR in order to
split the firmware into two separate pieces. Otherwise the default is now
to produce only a single continuous firmware image with all ISR, text and
data together.
This patch allows a particular board to independently specify the linker
scripts for 1) the MCU memory layout; 2) how the different firmware
sections are arranged in memory. Right now all boards follow the same
layout with two separate firmware section, one for the ISR and one for the
text and data. This leaves room for storage (filesystem data) to live
between the firmware sections.
The idea with this patch is to accommodate boards that don't have internal
flash storage and only need to have one continuous firmware section. Thus
the common.ld script is renamed to common_ifs.ld to make explicit that it
is used for cases where the board has internal flash storage.
Explicitly writing out the implementation of sys_tick_has_passed makes
these bdev files independent of systick.c and more reusable as a general
component. It also reduces the code size slightly.
The irq.h header is added to spibdev.c because it uses declarations in that
file (irq.h is usually included implicitly via mphalport.h but not always).
Taking the address assumes that the pin is an object (eg a struct), but it
could be a literal (eg an int). Not taking the address makes this driver
more general for other uses.
genhdr/pins.h is an internal header file that defines all of the pin
objects and it's cleaner to have pin.h include it (where the struct's for
these objects are defined) rather than an explicit include by every user.
The HAL requires strict aliasing optimisation to be turned on to function
correctly (at least for the SD card driver on F4 MCUs). This optimisation
was recently disabled with the addition of H7 support due to the H7 HAL
having errors with the strict aliasing optimisation enabled. But this is
now fixed in the latest stm32lib and so the optimisation can now be
re-enabled.
Thanks to @chuckbook for finding that there was a problem with the SD card
on F4 MCUs with the strict aliasing optimisation disabled.
The CMSIS files for the STM32 range provide macros to distinguish between
the different MCU series: STM32F4, STM32F7, STM32H7, STM32L4, etc. Prefer
to use these instead of custom ones.
This patch provides a custom (and simple) function to receive data on the
CAN bus, instead of the HAL function. This custom version calls
mp_handle_pending() while waiting for messages, which, among other things,
allows to interrupt the recv() method via KeyboardInterrupt.
