Most types are in rodata/ROM, and mp_obj_base_t.type is a constant pointer,
so enforce this const-ness throughout the code base. If a type ever needs
to be modified (eg a user type) then a simple cast can be used.
This change has the following effects:
- Reduces the resolution of the RTC sub-second counter from 30.52us to
122.07us.
- Allows RTC.calibration() to now support positive values (as well as
negative values).
- Reduces VBAT current consumption in standby mode by a small amount.
For general purpose use 122us resolution of the sub-second counter is
good enough, and the benefits of full range calibration and minor reduction
in VBAT consumption are worth the change.
Instances of the slice class are passed to __getitem__() on objects when
the user indexes them with a slice. In practice the majority of the time
(other than passing it on untouched) is to work out what the slice means in
the context of an array dimension of a particular length. Since Python 2.3
there has been a method on the slice class, indices(), that takes a
dimension length and returns the real start, stop and step, accounting for
missing or negative values in the slice spec. This commit implements such
a indices() method on the slice class.
It is configurable at compile-time via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE_INDICES,
disabled by default, enabled on unix, stm32 and esp32 ports.
This commit also adds new tests for slice indices and for slicing unicode
strings.
For the 3 ports that already make use of this feature (stm32, nrf and
teensy) this doesn't make any difference, it just allows to disable it from
now on.
For other ports that use pyexec, this decreases code size because the debug
printing code is dead (it can't be enabled) but the compiler can't deduce
that, so code is still emitted.
Most stm32 boards can now be built in nan-boxing mode via:
$ make NANBOX=1
Note that if float is enabled then it will be forced to double-precision.
Also, native emitters will be disabled.
- Corrected pin assignments and checked with CubeMX.
- Added additional I2C and UARTs.
- Added Ethernet interface definitions with lwIP and SSL support (but
Ethernet is currently unsupported on H7 MCUs so not fully enabled).
- Removed remarks on DFU/OCD in mpconfigboard.h because deploy-stlink works
fine too.
- Added more UARTs, I2C, corrected SPI, CAN, etc; verified against CubeMX.
- Adapted pins.csv to remove errors, add omissions, etc. according to
NUCLEO-144 User Manual.
- Changed linker file stm32f767.ld to reflect correct size of the Flash.
- Tested with LAN and SD card.
The Nucleo board does not have an SD card slot but does have the requisite
pins next to each other and labelled, so provide the configuration for
convenience.
The default protection for the BLE ringbuf is to use
MICROPY_BEGIN_ATOMIC_SECTION, which disables all interrupts. On stm32 it
only needs to disable the lowest priority IRQ, pendsv, because that's the
IRQ level at which the BLE stack is driven.
qstrs in this file are always included in all builds, even if not used
anywhere. So remove those that are never needed, and make USB names
conditional on having USB enabled.
And return -MP_EIO if calling storage_read_block/storage_write_block fails.
This lines up with the return type and value (negative for error) of the
calls to MICROPY_HW_BDEV_READBLOCKS (and WRITEBLOCKS, and BDEV2 versions).
The pyb.Flash() class can now be used to construct objects which reference
sections of the flash storage, starting at a certain offset and going for a
certain length. Such objects also support the extended block protocol.
The signature for the constructor is: pyb.Flash(start=-1, len=-1).
This commit refactors and generalises the boot-mount routine on stm32 so
that it can mount filesystems of arbitrary type. That is, it no longer
assumes that the filesystem is FAT. It does this by using mp_vfs_mount()
which does auto-detection of the filesystem type.
Using mp_hal_delay_ms allows the scheduler to run, which might result in
another transmit operation happening, which would bypass the sleep (and
fail). Use mp_hal_delay_us instead.
This commit removes the Makefile-level MICROPY_FATFS config and moves the
MICROPY_VFS_FAT config to the Makefile level to replace it. It also moves
the include of the oofatfs source files in the build from each port to a
central place in extmod/extmod.mk.
For a port to enabled VFS FAT support it should now set MICROPY_VFS_FAT=1
at the level of the Makefile. This will include the relevant oofatfs files
in the build and set MICROPY_VFS_FAT=1 at the C (preprocessor) level.
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.
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".
