No functionality change is intended with this commit, it just consolidates
the separate implementations of GC helper code to the lib/utils/ directory
as a general set of helper functions useful for any port. This reduces
duplication of code, and makes it easier for future ports or embedders to
get the GC implementation correct.
Ports should now link against gchelper_native.c and either gchelper_m0.s or
gchelper_m3.s (currently only Cortex-M is supported but other architectures
can follow), or use the fallback gchelper_generic.c which will work on
x86/x64/ARM.
The gc_helper_get_sp function from gchelper_m3.s is not really GC related
and was only used by cc3200, so it has been moved to that port and renamed
to cortex_m3_get_sp.
Note: the uncrustify configuration is explicitly set to 'add' instead of
'force' in order not to alter the comments which use extra spaces after //
as a means of indenting text for clarity.
Prior to making this a config option it was previously available on these
(and all other) ports, and it makes sense to keep it enabled for mpy-cross
as well as ports that have a decent amount of space for the code.
This type was used only for the typedef of mp_obj_t, which is now defined
by the object representation. So we can now remove this unused typedef,
to simplify the mpconfigport.h file.
When compiling with msys2's gcc there's no need to apply the binary fmode
so adjust the Makefile to reflect that.
When compiling with mingw we need to include malloc.h since there is no
alloca.h, and the 64bit detection in mpconfigport.h needs some adjustment.
