This commit adds an implementation of machine.Timer backed by the soft
timer mechanism. It allows an arbitrary number of timers with 1ms
resolution, with an associated Python callback. The Python-level API
matches existing ports that have a soft timer, and is used as:
from machine import Timer
t = Timer(freq=10, callback=lambda t:print(t))
...
t = Timer(mode=Timer.ONE_SHOT, period=2000, callback=lambda t:print(t))
...
t.deinit()
This commit adds an implementation of a "software timer" with a 1ms
resolution, using SysTick. It allows unlimited number of concurrent
timers (limited only by memory needed for each timer entry). They can be
one-shot or periodic, and associated with a Python callback.
There is a very small overhead added to the SysTick IRQ, which could be
further optimised in the future, eg by patching SysTick_Handler code
dynamically.
The MP_STATE_THREAD(stack_top) is always available so use it instead of
creating a separate variable. This also allows gc_collect() to be used as
an independent function, without real_main() being called.
When a SPI bus is initialized with a SPI host that is currently in use the
exception msg incorrectly indicates "SPI device already in use". The
mention of "device" in the exception msg is confusing because the error is
about trying to use a SPI host that is already claimed. A better exception
msg is "SPI host already in use".
For consistency with "umachine". Now that weak links are enabled
by default for built-in modules, this should be a no-op, but allows
extension of the bluetooth module by user code.
Also move registration of ubluetooth to objmodule rather than
port-specific.
This commit implements automatic module weak links for all built-in
modules, by searching for "ufoo" in the built-in module list if "foo"
cannot be found. This means that all modules named "ufoo" are always
available as "foo". Also, a port can no longer add any other weak links,
which makes strict the definition of a weak link.
It saves some code size (about 100-200 bytes) on ports that previously had
lots of weak links.
Some changes from the previous behaviour:
- It doesn't intern the non-u module names (eg "foo" is not interned),
which saves code size, but will mean that "import foo" creates a new qstr
(namely "foo") in RAM (unless the importing module is frozen).
- help('modules') no longer lists non-u module names, only the u-variants;
this reduces duplication in the help listing.
Weak links are effectively the same as having a set of symbolic links on
the filesystem that is searched last. So an "import foo" will search
built-in modules first, then all paths in sys.path, then weak links last,
importing "ufoo" if it exists. Thus a file called "foo.py" somewhere in
sys.path will still have precedence over the weak link of "foo" to "ufoo".

When loading a manifest file, e.g. by include(), it will chdir first to the
directory of that manifest. This means that all file operations within a
manifest are relative to that manifest's location.
As a consequence of this, additional environment variables are needed to
find absolute paths, so the following are added: $(MPY_LIB_DIR),
$(PORT_DIR), $(BOARD_DIR). And rename $(MPY) to $(MPY_DIR) to be
consistent.
Existing manifests are updated to match.
Prior to this commit the systick IRQ priority was set at lowest priority on
F0/L0/WB MCUs, because it was left at the default and never configured.
This commit ensures the priority is configured and sets it to the highest
priority.
Remove the 240MHz CPU config option from sdkconfig.base and create a new
sdkconfig.240mhz file for those boards that want to use 240MHz on boot.
The default CPU frequency is now 160MHz (was 240MHz), to align with the ESP
IDF and support more boards (eg those with D2WD chips).
Fixes issue #5169.
This prevents issues with concurrent access to the ringbuf.
MICROPY_BEGIN_ATOMIC_SECTION is only atomic to the same core. We could
address this with a mutex, but it's also not safe to call mp_sched_schedule
across cores.
This avoids a confusing ENOMEM raised from gap_advertise if there is
currently an active connection. This refers to the static connection
buffer pre-allocated by Nimble (nothing to do with MicroPython heap
memory).
