David Lechner c118b5d0e4 extmod/extmod.mk: Separate out extmod file list from py.mk to extmod.mk.
This separates extmod source files from `py.mk`.  Previously, `py.mk`
assumed that every consumer of the py/ directory also wanted to include
extmod/.  However, this is not the case.  For example, building mpy-cross
uses py/ but doesn't need extmod/.

This commit moves all extmod-specific items from `py.mk` to `extmod.mk` and
explicitly includes `extmod.mk` in ports that use it.

README.md

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:

  1. Continuous integration
    • run tests against architecture-specific parts of code base
  2. Experimentation
    • simulation & prototyping of anything that has architecture-specific code
    • exploring instruction set in terms of optimising some part of MicroPython or a module
  3. 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 the GNU 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.

To build and run image with builtin testsuite:

make -f Makefile.test test
