The port now uses the common mp_utime_ticks_{ms,us,cpu,add,diff} functions
from extmod/utime_mphal.c.
The mp_utime_sleep_XXX functions are still cc3200-specific because they
handle the GIL differently to the ones in extmod.
The files misc/mpsystick.[ch] have been removed because they contain 2
unused functions, and the other remaining function is renamed to
mp_hal_ticks_us and moved to hal/cc3200_hal.c.
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.
Remove unused and unneeded functions, also create Pin.get_config() that
returns the whole configuration of the pin.
This reduces code size by ~500 bytes.
Previous to this patch the printing mechanism was a bit of a tangled
mess. This patch attempts to consolidate printing into one interface.
All (non-debug) printing now uses the mp_print* family of functions,
mainly mp_printf. All these functions take an mp_print_t structure as
their first argument, and this structure defines the printing backend
through the "print_strn" function of said structure.
Printing from the uPy core can reach the platform-defined print code via
two paths: either through mp_sys_stdout_obj (defined pert port) in
conjunction with mp_stream_write; or through the mp_plat_print structure
which uses the MP_PLAT_PRINT_STRN macro to define how string are printed
on the platform. The former is only used when MICROPY_PY_IO is defined.
With this new scheme printing is generally more efficient (less layers
to go through, less arguments to pass), and, given an mp_print_t*
structure, one can call mp_print_str for efficiency instead of
mp_printf("%s", ...). Code size is also reduced by around 200 bytes on
Thumb2 archs.
This allows to use the On-Chip retention registers for both the
RTC and to share notification flags between the bootloader and the
application. The two flags being shared right now are the "safe boot"
request and the WDT reset cause. we still have 2 more bits free for
future use.
