This also removes the need to pin share because we don't use the
status LED while user code is running.
The status flashes fallback to the HW_STATUS LED if no RGB LED is
present. Each status has a unique blink pattern as well.
One caveat is the REPL state. In order to not pin share, we set the
RGB color once. PWM and single color will be shutoff immediately but
DotStars and NeoPixels will hold the color until the user overrides
it.
Fixes#4133
Instead of counting words in make, which is slightly awful, notice that
possible_devices is local to external_flash.c, so we can declare the array
with an automatic bound, and then get the count as the element-count
(MP_ARRAY_SIZE) of the array.
Since EXTERNAL_FLASH_DEVICE_COUNT is no longer a global macro, switch
a few sites to using EXTERNAL_FLASH_DEVICES in `#if` checks instead.
This allows calls to `allocate_memory()` while the VM is running, it will then allocate from the GC heap (unless there is a suitable hole among the supervisor allocations), and when the VM exits and the GC heap is freed, the allocation will be moved to the bottom of the former GC heap and transformed into a proper supervisor allocation. Existing movable allocations will also be moved to defragment the supervisor heap and ensure that the next VM run gets as much memory as possible for the GC heap.
By itself this breaks terminalio because it violates the assumption that supervisor_display_move_memory() still has access to an undisturbed heap to copy the tilegrid from. It will work in many cases, but if you're unlucky you will get garbled terminal contents after exiting from the vm run that created the display. This will be fixed in the following commit, which is separate to simplify review.
It's extremely dubious that we have these handles that we think
are to GC'd memory at a time when the gc pool may not be initialized.
Hopefully, they WERE valid GC memory and are undisturbed by the teardown
of the interpreter that can lead to this state.
In this case, don't try to m_free them, the memory will become free when
the GC heap is reinitialized.
Closes: #2338 (together with previous commit)
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.
