The purposes of this port are to enable:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Continuous integration

|
|
|
- run tests against architecture-specific parts of code base

|
|
|
2. Experimentation
|
|
|
|
|
- simulation & prototyping of anything that has architecture-specific
|
|
|
|
|
code
|
|
|
|
|
- exploring instruction set in terms of optimising some part of
|
|
|
|
|
MicroPython or a module
|
|
|
|
|
3. Streamlined debugging
|
|
|
|
|
- no need for JTAG or even an MCU chip itself
|
|
|
|
|
- no need to use OpenOCD or anything else that might slow down the
|
|
