The C nearbyint function has exactly the semantics that Python's round() requires, whereas C's round() requires extra steps to handle rounding of numbers half way between integers. So using nearbyint reduces code size and potentially eliminates any source of errors in the handling of half-way numbers. Also, bare-metal implementations of nearbyint can be more efficient than round, so further code size is saved (and efficiency improved). nearbyint is provided in the C99 standard so it should be available on all supported platforms. |

This is experimental, community-supported port for Cortex-M emulation as provided by QEMU (http://qemu.org).
The purposes of this port are to enable:
- Continuous integration
- run tests agains architecture-specific parts of code base
- Experimentation
- simulation & prototyping of anything that has architecture-specific code
- exploring instruction set in terms of optimising some part of MicroPython or a module
- Streamlined debugging
- no need for JTAG or even an MCU chip itself
- no need to use OpenOCD or anything else that might slow down the process in terms of plugging things together, pressing buttons, etc.
This port will only work with with GCC ARM Embedded
toolchain and not with CodeSourcery toolchain. You will need to modify
LDFLAGS if you want to use CodeSourcery's version of arm-none-eabi.
The difference is that CodeSourcery needs -T generic-m-hosted.ld while
ARM's version requires --specs=nano.specs --specs=rdimon.specs to be
passed to the linker.
