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.
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
This allows to statically allocate the TCB (thread control block) and
thread stack in the BSS segment, reducing the need for dynamic memory
allocation.
With network.server_timeout(secs) the timeout can be changed.
The default value is 300 secs. Minimmum accpeted is 5 secs.
Without params the function returns the current configured timeout.
This is actually a workaround Ter Term's issue of not obeying to the
telnet options that the server is sending. Therefore, we must buffer
chars until either a '\r' or the max length of the username/password
is received.
This has implications all over the place. I have to admit that
you can instantly see that usability improves, but it costs 3K.
At the same time I took the oportunity to rename the '/SFLASH'
drive to '/flash' which improves compatibility with the pyboard.
Unfortunately, these timeouts are the only realiable way (for now), to
be able to detect broken connections due to half-open sockets. Such a
thing occurs when getting out of the WiFi coverage area or when
disconnecting from the AP (sometimes the client doesn't send the
disconnect packet).
The port currently implements support for GPIO, RTC, ExtInt and the WiFi
subsystem. A small file system is available in the serial flash. A
bootloader which makes OTA updates possible, is also part of this initial
implementation.
