Mboot is a custom bootloader for STM32 MCUs. It can provide a USB DFU
interface on either the FS or HS peripherals, as well as a custom I2C
bootloader interface.

Thanks to @JoeSc for the original patch.
This patch allows to use lwIP as the implementation of the usocket module,
instead of the existing socket-multiplexer that delegates the entire TCP/IP
layer to the NIC itself.
This is disabled by default, and enabled by defining MICROPY_PY_LWIP to 1.
When enabled, the lwIP TCP/IP stack will be included in the build with
default settings for memory usage and performance (see
lwip_inc/lwipopts.h). It is then up to a particular NIC to register itself
with lwIP using the standard lwIP netif API.
This patch adds the configuration MICROPY_HW_USB_ENABLE_CDC2 which enables
a new USB device configuration at runtime: VCP+VCP+MSC. It will give two
independent VCP interfaces available via pyb.USB_VCP(0) and pyb.USB_VCP(1).
The first one is the usual one and has the REPL on it. The second one is
available for general use.
This configuration is disabled by default because if the mode is not used
then it takes up about 2200 bytes of RAM. Also, F4 MCUs can't support this
mode on their USB FS peripheral (eg PYBv1.x) because they don't have enough
endpoints. The USB HS peripheral of an F4 supports it, as well as both the
USB FS and USB HS peripherals of F7 MCUs.
The documentation (including the examples) for elapsed_millis and
elapsed_micros can be found in docs/library/pyb.rst so doesn't need to be
written in full in the source code.
When disabled, the pyb.I2C class saves around 8k of code space and 172
bytes of RAM. The same functionality is now available in machine.I2C
(for F4 and F7 MCUs).
It is still enabled by default.
This driver uses low-level register access to control the I2C peripheral
(ie it doesn't rely on the ST HAL) and provides the same C-level API as the
existing F7 hardware driver.
On this 32-bit arch there's no need to use the long version of the format
specifier. It's only there to appease the compiler which checks the type
of the args passed to printf. Removing the "l" saves a bit of code space.
For a given IRQn (eg UART) there's no need to carry around both a PRI and
SUBPRI value (eg IRQ_PRI_UART, IRQ_SUBPRI_UART). Instead, the IRQ_PRI_UART
value has been changed in this patch to be the encoded hardware value,
using NVIC_EncodePriority. This way the NVIC_SetPriority function can be
used directly, instead of going through HAL_NVIC_SetPriority which must do
extra processing to encode the PRI+SUBPRI.
For a priority grouping of 4 (4 bits for preempt priority, 0 bits for the
sub-priority), which is used in the stm32 port, the IRQ_PRI_xxx constants
remain unchanged in their value.
This patch also "fixes" the use of raise_irq_pri() which should be passed
the encoded value (but as mentioned above the unencoded value is the same
as the encoded value for priority grouping 4, so there was no bug from this
error).
The problem is the existing code which tries to optimise the
reinitialisation of the DMA breaks the abstraction of the HAL. For the
STM32L4 the HAL's DMA setup code maintains two private vars (ChannelIndex,
DmaBaseAddress) and updates a hardware register (CCR).
In HAL_DMA_Init(), the CCR is updated to set the direction of the DMA.
This is a problem because, when using the SD Card interface, the same DMA
channel is used in both directions, so the direction bit in the CCR must
follow that.
A quick and effective fix for the L4 is to simply call HAL_DMA_DeInit() and
HAL_DMA_Init() every time.
