On stmhal, computed gotos make the binary about 1k bigger, but makes it
run faster, and we have the room, so why not. All tests pass on
pyboard using computed gotos.
Also contains raw memory read/write functions, read8, read16, read32,
write8, write16, write32. Can now do:
stm.write16(stm.GPIOA + stm.GPIO_BSRRL, 1 << 13)
This turns on the red LED.
With the new constant folding, the above constants for the GPIO address
are actually compiled to constants (and the addition done) at compile
time. For viper code and inline assembler, this optimisation will make
a big difference. In the inline assembler, using these constants would
not be possible without this constant folding.
Finishes addressing issue #424.
In the end this was a very neat refactor that now makes things a lot
more consistent across the py code base. It allowed some
simplifications in certain places, now that everything is a dict object.
Also converted builtins tables to dictionaries. This will be useful
when we need to turn builtins into a proper module.
mp_module_obj_t can now be put in ROM.
Configuration of float type is now similar to longint: can now choose
none, float or double as the implementation.
math module has basic math functions. For STM port, these are not yet
implemented (they are just stub functions).
This commit also introduces board directories and moves board
specific config into the appropriate board directory.
boards/stm32f4xx-af.csv was extracted from the STM32F4xx datasheet
and hand-tweaked.
make-pins.py takes boards/stm32f4xx-af.csv, boards/stm32f4xx-prefix.c,
and boards/BOARD-NAME/pins.csv as input and generates the file
build/pins_BOARD_NAME.c
The generated pin file for PYBOARD4 looks like this:
https://gist.github.com/dhylands/9063231
The generated pins file includes all of the supported alternate
functions, and includes upsupported alternate functions as comments.
See the commnet block at the top of stm/pin_map.c for details on
how to use the pin mapper.
I also went ahead and modified stm/gpio.c to use the pin mapper.
Note: none of these functions are used by STM port, so they're provided
to have parity with pre gc refactor status quo, and in case they will be
needed in the future by some extension writers.
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).
