This is consistent with the other 'micro' modules and allows implementing
additional features in Python via e.g. micropython-lib's sys.
Note this is a breaking change (not backwards compatible) for ports which
do not enable weak links, as "import sys" must now be replaced with
"import usys".
On arm64 with CPython:
>>> _thread.stack_size(32*1024)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: size not valid: 32768 bytes
So increase the CPython value in the test to 512k so it runs on more
systems (on modern Linux the default stack size is usually 8MB).
This adds the Python files in the tests/ directory to be formatted with
./tools/codeformat.py. The basics/ subdirectory is excluded for now so we
aren't changing too much at once.
In a few places `# fmt: off`/`# fmt: on` was used where the code had
special formatting for readability or where the test was actually testing
the specific formatting.
Depending on the thread scheduler, a busy-wait loop can hog the CPU and
make the tests very slow. So convert such loops to loops that have an
explicit sleep, allowing the worker threads to do their job.
