Changes made are:
- Use the time module in place of the pyb module for delays.
- Use spi.read/spi.write instead of spi.send/spi.receive.
- Drop some non-portable parameters to spi and pin initialization.
Thanks to @deshipu for the original patch.
machine.time_pulse_us() is intended to provide very fine timing, including
while working with signal bursts, where each transition is tracked in row.
Throwing and handling an exception may take too much time and "signal loss".
So instead, in case of a timeout, just return negative value. Cases of
timeout while waiting for initial signal stabilization, and during actual
timing, are recognized.
The documentation is updated accordingly, and rewritten somewhat to clarify
the function behavior.
The driver seems to be be enabling the pullup resistor in most places, but
not this one. Making this one little change allows onewire devices to be
used with no external pullup resistor.
Builtin functions with a fixed number of arguments (0, 1, 2 or 3) are
quite common. Before this patch the wrapper for such a function cost
3 machine words. After this patch it only takes 2, which can reduce the
code size by quite a bit (and pays off even more, the more functions are
added). It also makes function dispatch slightly more efficient in CPU
usage, and furthermore reduces stack usage for these cases. On x86 and
Thumb archs the dispatch functions are now tail-call optimised by the
compiler.
The bare-arm port has its code size increase by 76 bytes, but stmhal drops
by 904 bytes. Stack usage by these builtin functions is decreased by 48
bytes on Thumb2 archs.
In order to have more fine-grained control over how builtin functions are
constructed, the MP_DECLARE_CONST_FUN_OBJ macros are made more specific,
with suffix of _0, _1, _2, _3, _VAR, _VAR_BETEEN or _KW. These names now
match the MP_DEFINE_CONST_FUN_OBJ macros.
In particular, the WeMOS D1 Mini board comes with a shield that has a
64x48 OLED display. This patch makes it display properly, with the upper
left pixel being at (0, 0) and not (32, 0).
I tried to do this with the configuration commands, but there doesn't
seem to be a command that would set the column offset (there is one for
the line offset, though).
