Replace "master" with "controller" and "slave" with "peripheral" in
comments, errors, and debug messages.
Add CONTROLLER and PERIPHERAL constants to pyb.SPI and pyb.I2C classes;
retain MASTER and SLAVE constants for backward compatiblity.
Now that error string compression is supported it's more important to have
consistent error string formatting (eg all lowercase English words,
consistent contractions). This commit cleans up some of the strings to
make them more consistent.
On MCUs that have an I2C TIMINGR register, this can now be explicitly set
via the "timingr" keyword argument to the I2C constructor, for both
machine.I2C and pyb.I2C. This allows to configure precise timing values
when the defaults are inadequate.
This part is functionally similar to STM32F767xx (they share a datasheet)
so support is generally comparable. When adding board support the
stm32f767_af.csv and stm32f767.ld should be used.
With this and previous patches the stm32 port can now be compiled using
object representation D (nan boxing). Note that native code and frozen mpy
files with float constants are currently not supported with this object
representation.
When disabled, the pyb.I2C class saves around 8k of code space and 172
bytes of RAM. The same functionality is now available in machine.I2C
(for F4 and F7 MCUs).
It is still enabled by default.
On this 32-bit arch there's no need to use the long version of the format
specifier. It's only there to appease the compiler which checks the type
of the args passed to printf. Removing the "l" saves a bit of code space.
Rather than pin objects themselves. The actual object is now pin_X_obj and
defines are provided so that pin_X is &pin_X_obj. This makes it so that
code that uses pin objects doesn't need to know if they are literals or
objects (that need pointers taken) or something else. They are just
entities that can be passed to the map_hal_pin_xxx functions. This mirrors
how the core handles constant objects (eg mp_const_none which is
&mp_const_none_obj) and allows for the possibility of different
implementations of the pin layer.
For example, prior to this patch there was the following:
extern const pin_obj_t pin_A0;
#define pyb_pin_X1 pin_A0
...
mp_hal_pin_high(&pin_A0);
and now there is:
extern const pin_obj_t pin_A0_obj;
#define pin_A0 (&pin_A0_obj)
#define pyb_pin_X1 pin_A0
...
mp_hal_pin_high(pin_A0);
This patch should have minimal effect on board configuration files. The
only change that may be needed is if a board has .c files that configure
pins.
genhdr/pins.h is an internal header file that defines all of the pin
objects and it's cleaner to have pin.h include it (where the struct's for
these objects are defined) rather than an explicit include by every user.
The CMSIS files for the STM32 range provide macros to distinguish between
the different MCU series: STM32F4, STM32F7, STM32H7, STM32L4, etc. Prefer
to use these instead of custom ones.
This patch adds in internal config value MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_HW_I2C that is
automatically configured, and enabled only if one or more hardware I2C
ports are defined in the mpconfigboard.h file. If none are defined then
the pyb.I2C class is excluded from the build, along with all supporting
code. The machine.I2C class will still be available for software I2C.
Disabling all hardware I2C on an F4 board saves around 10,000 bytes of code
and 200 bytes of RAM.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums
Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
mp_obj_t type
py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions
Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.
Previous to this patch the i2c.scan() method would do up to 100 probes per
I2C address, to detect the devices on the bus. This repeated probing was a
relic from when the code was copied from the accelerometer initialisation,
which requires to do repeated probes while waiting for the accelerometer
chip to turn on.
But I2C devices shouldn't need more than 1 probe to detect their presence,
and the generic software I2C implementation uses 1 probe successfully. So
this patch changes the implementation to use 1 probe per address, which
significantly speeds up the scan operation.
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.
- Changed: ValueError, TypeError, NotImplementedError
- OSError invocations unchanged, because the corresponding utility
function takes ints, not strings like the long form invocation.
- OverflowError, IndexError and RuntimeError etc. not changed for now
until we decide whether to add new utility functions.
Such constants are MCU specific so shouldn't be specified in the board
config file (else it leads to too much duplication of code).
This patch also adds I2C timing values for the F767/F769 for 100k, 400k
and 1MHz I2C bus frequencies.
