The bootloader needs string0.c because of memset, memcpy and others,
without string0.c it magically links, but calling any of those
functions results in a hard fault.
In debug mode, modpyb needs printf, and including stdio.h leads to
conflicts due to the redefinitions made in the simplelink drivers.
The safe boot pin, when pulled high during reset rolls back the
firmware to the "factory" image and skips execution of 'boot.py'
and 'main.py'. This is useful to recover from a crash condition.
The system led is used mostly to signal errors.
The port currently implements support for GPIO, RTC, ExtInt and the WiFi
subsystem. A small file system is available in the serial flash. A
bootloader which makes OTA updates possible, is also part of this initial
implementation.
