Testing performed: That a card is successfully mounted on Pygamer with
the built in SD card slot
This module is enabled for most FULL_BUILD boards, but is disabled for
samd21 ("M0"), litex, and pca10100 for various reasons.
Ujson should only worry about whitespace before JSON. This becomes apparent when you are using MP stream protocol to read directly from input buffers.
When you attempt to read(1) on a UART (and possibly other protocols) you have to wait for either the byte or the timeout.
Fixes:
- Waiting for a timeout after you have completed reading a correct and complete JSON off the input.
- Raising an OSError after reading a correct and complete JSON off the input.
- Eating more data than semantically owned off the input buffer.
- Blocking to start parsing JSON until the entire JSON body has been loaded into a potentially large, contiguous Python object.
Code you would write before:
```
line = board_busio_uart_port.read_line()
json_dict = json.loads(line)
```
or reaching for fixed buffers and swapping them around in Python.
Code that did not work before that does now:
```
json_dict = json.load(board_busio_uart_port)
```
- This removes the need for intermediate copies of data when reading JSON from micropython stream protocol inputs.
- It also increases total application speed by parsing JSON concurrently with receiving on boards that read from UART via DMA.
- It simplifies code that users write while improving their apps.
Protocols are nice, but there is no way for C code to verify whether
a type's "protocol" structure actually implements some particular
protocol. As a result, you can pass an object that implements the
"vfs" protocol to one that expects the "stream" protocol, and the
opposite of awesomeness ensues.
This patch adds an OPTIONAL (but enabled by default) protocol identifier
as the first member of any protocol structure. This identifier is
simply a unique QSTR chosen by the protocol designer and used by each
protocol implementer. When checking for protocol support, instead of
just checking whether the object's type has a non-NULL protocol field,
use `mp_proto_get` which implements the protocol check when possible.
The existing protocols are now named:
protocol_framebuf
protocol_i2c
protocol_pin
protocol_stream
protocol_spi
protocol_vfs
(most of these are unused in CP and are just inherited from MP; vfs and
stream are definitely used though)
I did not find any crashing examples, but here's one to give a flavor of what
is improved, using `micropython_coverage`. Before the change,
the vfs "ioctl" protocol is invoked, and the result is not intelligible
as json (but it could have resulted in a hard fault, potentially):
>>> import uos, ujson
>>> u = uos.VfsPosix('/tmp')
>>> ujson.load(u)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: syntax error in JSON
After the change, the vfs object is correctly detected as not supporting
the stream protocol:
>>> ujson.load(p)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OSError: stream operation not supported
writeto_then_readfrom has been added to do a write -> no stop ->
repeated start -> read sequence. This is done to match the
capabilities of Blinka on Linux.
Code that uses stop=False will not work correctly on Blinka.
To fix, if stop=False then use writeto_then_readfrom otherwise use
writeto then readfrom_into.
First step in #2082
This also improves Palette so it stores the original RGB888 colors.
Lastly, it adds I2CDisplay as a display bus to talk over I2C. Particularly
useful for the SSD1306.
Fixes#1828. Fixes#1956
