This function is not used by the core but having it as part of the build
allows it to be used by user C modules, or board extensions. The linker
won't include it in the final firmware if it remains unused.
- Split 'qemu-arm' from 'unix' for generating tests.
- Add frozen module to the qemu-arm test build.
- Add test that reproduces the requirement to half-word align native
function data.
Adds support for 3 Cortex-M boards, selectable via "BOARD" in the Makefile:
- microbit, Cortex-M0 via nRF51822
- netduino2, Cortex-M3 via STM32F205
- mps2-an385, Cortex-M3 via FPGA
netduino2 is the default board because it's supported by older qemu
versions (down to at least 2.5.0).
The way tinytest was used in qemu-arm test target is that it didn't test
much. MicroPython tests are based on matching the test output against
reference output, but qemu-arm's implementation didn't do that, it
effectively tested just that there was no exception during test
execution. "upytesthelper" wrapper was introduce to fix it, so switch
test implementation to use it.
This requires passing different CFLAGS when building the firmware, so
split out test-related parts to Makefile.test.
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.
