This only needs to be enabled if a board uses FAT FS on external SPI flash.
When disabled (and using external SPI flash) 4k of RAM can be saved.

This patch renames the existing SPI flash API functions to reflect the fact
that the go through the cache:
mp_spiflash_flush -> mp_spiflash_cache_flush
mp_spiflash_read -> mp_spiflash_cached_read
mp_spiflash_write -> mp_spiflash_cached_write
This patch removes the global cache variables from the SPI flash driver and
now requires the user to provide the cache memory themselves, via the SPI
flash configuration struct. This allows to either have a shared cache for
multiple SPI flash devices (by sharing a mp_spiflash_cache_t struct), or
have a single cache per device (or a mix of these options).
To configure the cache use:
mp_spiflash_cache_t spi_bdev_cache;
const mp_spiflash_config_t spiflash_config =
// any bus options
.cache = &spi_bdev_cache,
};
This patch alters the SPI-flash memory driver so that it uses the new
low-level C SPI protocol (from drivers/bus/spi.h) instead of the uPy SPI
protocol (from extmod/machine_spi.h). This allows the SPI-flash driver to
be used independently from the uPy runtime.
The spiflash memory driver is reworked to allow the underlying bus to be
either normal SPI or QSPI. In both cases the bus can be implemented in
software or hardware, as long as the spiflash driver is passed the correct
configuration structure.
The SPI flash driver now supports using an arbitrary SPI object to
communicate with the flash chip, and in particular can use a hardware SPI
peripheral.
The code conventions suggest using header guards, but do not define how
those should look like and instead point to existing files. However, not
all existing files follow the same scheme, sometimes omitting header guards
altogether, sometimes using non-standard names, making it easy to
accidentally pick a "wrong" example.
This commit ensures that all header files of the MicroPython project (that
were not simply copied from somewhere else) follow the same pattern, that
was already present in the majority of files, especially in the py folder.
The rules are as follows.
Naming convention:
* start with the words MICROPY_INCLUDED
* contain the full path to the file
* replace special characters with _
In addition, there are no empty lines before #ifndef, between #ifndef and
one empty line before #endif. #endif is followed by a comment containing
the name of the guard macro.
py/grammar.h cannot use header guards by design, since it has to be
included multiple times in a single C file. Several other files also do not
need header guards as they are only used internally and guaranteed to be
included only once:
* MICROPY_MPHALPORT_H
* mpconfigboard.h
* mpconfigport.h
* mpthreadport.h
* pin_defs_*.h
* qstrdefs*.h
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
Reference MCU is dsPIC33J256GP506 with 256k ROM and 8k RAM, on the dsPIC
DSC Starter Kit board. The REPL works, GC works, pyb module has LED and
Switch objects. It passes some tests from the test suite (most it can't
run because it doesn't have the Python features enabled).
This enables proper interfacing with underlying OS - MicroPython doesn't
run the main loop, OS does, MicroPython just gets called when some event
takes place.
Such mechanism is important to get stable Python functioning, because Python
function calling is handled with C stack. The idea is to sprinkle
STACK_CHECK() calls in places where there can be C recursion.
TODO: Add more STACK_CHECK()'s.
Blanket wide to all .c and .h files. Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.
Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.
Full CPython compatibility with this requires actually parsing the
input so far collected, and if it fails parsing due to lack of tokens,
then continue collecting input. It's not worth doing it this way. Not
having compatibility at this level does not hurt the goals of Micro
Python.
A big change. Micro Python objects are allocated as individual structs
with the first element being a pointer to the type information (which
is itself an object). This scheme follows CPython. Much more flexible,
not necessarily slower, uses same heap memory, and can allocate objects
statically.
Also change name prefix, from py_ to mp_ (mp for Micro Python).
