Which Wiznet chip to use is a compile-time option: MICROPY_PY_WIZNET5K
should be set to either 5200 or 5500 to support either one of these
Ethernet chips. The driver is called network.WIZNET5K in both cases.
Note that this commit introduces a breaking-change at the build level
because previously the valid values for MICROPY_PY_WIZNET5K were 0 and 1
but now they are 0, 5200 and 5500.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums
Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
mp_obj_t type
py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions
Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.
The timer prescaler is buffered by default, and this patch enables ARPE
which buffers the auto-reload register. With both of these registers
buffered it's now possible to smoothly change the timer's frequency and
have a smoothly varying PWM output.
Prior to this patch calling pyb.Timer(id) would always create a new timer
instance, even if there was an existing one. This patch fixes this
behaviour to match other peripherals, like UART, such that constructing a
timer with just the id will retrieve any existing instances.
The patch also refactors the way timers are validated on construction to
simplify and reduce code size.
connect, send, recv, sendto and recvfrom now release the GIL. accept
already releases the GIL because it calls mp_hal_delay_ms() within its
busy-wait loop.
Previous to this patch the i2c.scan() method would do up to 100 probes per
I2C address, to detect the devices on the bus. This repeated probing was a
relic from when the code was copied from the accelerometer initialisation,
which requires to do repeated probes while waiting for the accelerometer
chip to turn on.
But I2C devices shouldn't need more than 1 probe to detect their presence,
and the generic software I2C implementation uses 1 probe successfully. So
this patch changes the implementation to use 1 probe per address, which
significantly speeds up the scan operation.
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
