Updating the nrfx git submodule containing HAL drivers for nrf-port
from v1.3.1 to current master. The version pointed to is one commit
ahead of v1.7.1 release. The extra commit contains a bugfix for
nrfx_uart_tx_in_progress() making it report correctly.
The general upgrade of nrfx is considered to be safe, as almost all
changes in between 1.3.1 and 1.7.1 are related to peripherals and
target devices not used by the nrf-port as of today.
Otherwise mp_interrupt_char will have a value of zero on start up (because
it's in the BSS) and a KeyboardInterrupt may be raised during start up.
For example this can occur if there is a UART attached to the REPL which
sends spurious null bytes when the device turns on.
So that boot.py and/or main.py can be frozen (either as STR or MPY) in the
same way that other scripts are frozen. Frozen scripts have preference to
scripts in the VFS.
From https://github.com/micropython/oofatfs, branch work-R0.13c,
commit cb05c9486d3b48ffd6bd7542d8dbbab4b1caf790.
Large code pages (932, 936, 949, 950) have been removed from ffunicode.c
because they were not included in previous versions here.
Replaces "PYB: soft reboot" with "MPY: soft reboot", etc.
Having a consistent prefix across ports reduces the difference between
ports, which is a general goal. And this change won't break pyboard.py
because that tool only looks for "soft reboot".
This fixes commit a99f9427420d("'/' and '\' are also acceptable ends of the path now") which broke mkdir.
The problem is where the directory name is a single letter like this:
>>> os.mkdir('a')
>>> os.mkdir('a/b')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OSError: [Errno 17] File exists
>>> os.mkdir('a/bb')
>>>
I wasn't smart enough to fix this in the oofatfs library, so I did it in the os shared module by
creating a path lookup function for the os methods that only deals with directories. I reverted
the library change introduced by the aforementioned commit.
This means that os.stat and os.rename can't handle trailing slashes. This is to avoid allowing
filenames with trailing slashes to pass through. In order to handle trailing slashes for these
it would be necessary to check if it really is a directory before stripping. I didn't do this
since the original issue was to make os.chdir tolerate trailing slashes.
There's an open MicroPython issue #2929 wrt. trailing slashes and mkdir.
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.
Otherwise there is really nothing that can be done, it can't be unlocked by
the user because there is no way to allocate memory to execute the unlock.
See issue #4205 and #4209.
