Zephyr renamed CONFIG_FLOAT to CONFIG_FPU to better reflect its semantics
of enabling the hardware floating point unit (FPU) rather than enabling
toolchain-level floating point support (i.e., software floating point for
FPU-less socs).
Zephyr deprecated and then removed its stack_analyze function because it
was unsafe. Use the new zephyr thread analyzer instead and rename the
MicroPython function to zephyr.thread_analyze() to be more consistent with
the implementation.
Tested on mimxrt1050_evk.
The output now looks like this:
>>> zephyr.thread_analyze()
Thread analyze:

rx_workq : unused 1320 usage 180 / 1500 (12 %)

The zephyr build system supports merging application-level board
configurations, so there is no need to reproduce this functionality in
MicroPython.
If CONF_FILE is not explicitly set, then the zephyr build system looks for
prj.conf in the application directory. Therefore we rename the MicroPython
prj_base.conf to prj.conf.
Furthermore, if the zephyr build system finds boards/$(BOARD).conf in the
application directory, it merges that configuration with prj.conf.
Therefore we rename all the MicroPython board .conf files and move them
into a boards/ directory.
The minimal configuration, prj_minimal.conf, is left in the application
directory because it is used as an explicitly set CONF_FILE in
make-minimal.
Note: the uncrustify configuration is explicitly set to 'add' instead of
'force' in order not to alter the comments which use extra spaces after //
as a means of indenting text for clarity.
Zephyr v2.2 reworked its gpio api to support linux device tree bindings and
pin logical levels. This commit updates the zephyr port's machine.Pin
class to replace the deprecated gpio api calls with the new supported gpio
api. This resolves several build warnings.
Tested on frdm_k64f and mimxrt1050_evk boards.
Adds support in the zephyr port to execute main.py if the file system is
enabled and the file exists. Existing support for executing a main.py
frozen module is preserved, since pyexec_file_if_exists() works just
like pyexec_frozen_module() if there's no vfs.
Enables the zephyr usb device stack and mass storage class on the
mimxrt1050_evk board. The mass storage class is backed by the sdhc disk
access driver, so it's now possible to browse and modify the contents of
the SD card from a USB host (your PC). This is in preparation to support
writing a main.py script to the SD card, and then executing it after the
next reset.
Adds support in the zephyr port to mount a file system if a block device
(sdhc disk access or flash area) is available. The mount point is either
"/sd" or "/flash" depending on the type of block device.
Tested with an sdhc disk access block device and fatfs on the
mimxrt1050_evk board.
Tested with a flash area block device and littlefs on the reel_board.
Enables the littlefs (v1 and v2) filesystems in the zephyr port.
Example usage with the internal flash on the reel_board or the
rv32m1_vega_ri5cy board:
import os
from zephyr import FlashArea
bdev = FlashArea(FlashArea.STORAGE, 4096)
os.VfsLfs2.mkfs(bdev)
os.mount(bdev, '/flash')
with open('/flash/hello.txt','w') as f:
f.write('Hello world')
print(open('/flash/hello.txt').read())
Things get a little trickier with the frdm_k64f due to the micropython
application spilling into the default flash storage partition defined
for this board. The zephyr build system doesn't enforce the flash
partitioning when mcuboot is not enabled (which it is not for
micropython). For now we can demonstrate that the littlefs filesystem
works on frdm_k64f by constructing the FlashArea block device on the
mcuboot scratch partition instead of the storage partition. Do this by
replacing the FlashArea.STORAGE constant above with the value 4.
Introduces a new zephyr.FlashArea class that uses the zephyr flash map
api to implement the uos.AbstractBlockDev protocol. The flash driver is
enabled on the frdm_k64f board, reel_board, and rv32m1_vega_ri5cy board.
The standard and extended block device protocols are both supported,
therefore this class can be used with file systems like littlefs which
require the extended interface.
Enables the fatfs filesystem in the zephyr port.
Example usage with an SD card on the mimxrt1050_evk board:
import zephyr, os
bdev = zephyr.DiskAccess('SDHC')
os.VfsFat.mkfs(bdev)
os.mount(bdev, '/sd')
with open('/sd/hello.txt','w') as f:
f.write('Hello world')
print(open('/sd/hello.txt').read())
Introduces a new zephyr.DiskAccess class that uses the zephyr disk
access api to implement the uos.AbstractBlockDev protocol. This can be
used with any type of zephyr disk access driver, which currently
includes SDHC, RAM, and FLASH implementations. The SDHC driver is
enabled on the mimxrt1050_evk board.
Only the standard block device protocol (without the offset parameter)
can be supported with the zephyr disk access api, therefore this class
cannot be used with file systems like littlefs which require the
extended interface. In the future it may be possible to implement the
extended interface in a new class using the zephyr flash api.
Zephyr removed the build target syscall_macros_h_target in commit
f4adf107f31674eb20881531900ff092cc40c07f. Removes reference from
MicroPython to fix build errors in the zephyr port.
This change is not compatible with zephyr v2.1 or earlier. It will be
compatible with Zephyr v2.2 when released.
The SYS_CLOCK_HW_CYCLES_TO_NS macro was deprecated in zephyr commit
8892406c1de21bd5de5877f39099e3663a5f3af1. This commit updates MicroPython
to use the new k_cyc_to_ns_floor64 api and fix build warnings in the zephyr
port.
This change is compatible with Zephyr v2.1 and later.
Zephyr restructured its includes in v2.0 and removed compatibility shims
after two releases in commit 1342dadc365ee22199e51779185899ddf7478686.
Updates include paths in MicroPython accordingly to fix build errors in
the zephyr port.
These changes are compatible with Zephyr v2.0 and later.
The MP_STATE_THREAD(stack_top) is always available so use it instead of
creating a separate variable. This also allows gc_collect() to be used as
an independent function, without real_main() being called.
This commit implements automatic module weak links for all built-in
modules, by searching for "ufoo" in the built-in module list if "foo"
cannot be found. This means that all modules named "ufoo" are always
available as "foo". Also, a port can no longer add any other weak links,
which makes strict the definition of a weak link.
It saves some code size (about 100-200 bytes) on ports that previously had
lots of weak links.
Some changes from the previous behaviour:
- It doesn't intern the non-u module names (eg "foo" is not interned),
which saves code size, but will mean that "import foo" creates a new qstr
(namely "foo") in RAM (unless the importing module is frozen).
- help('modules') no longer lists non-u module names, only the u-variants;
this reduces duplication in the help listing.
Weak links are effectively the same as having a set of symbolic links on
the filesystem that is searched last. So an "import foo" will search
built-in modules first, then all paths in sys.path, then weak links last,
importing "ufoo" if it exists. Thus a file called "foo.py" somewhere in
sys.path will still have precedence over the weak link of "foo" to "ufoo".
See issues: #1740, #4449, #5229, #5241.
I2C can't be enabled in prj_base.conf because it's a board-specific
feature. For example, if a board doesn't have I2C but CONFIG_I2C=y then
the build will fail (on Zephyr build system side). The patch here gets the
qemu_cortex_m3 build working again.
Adds support for hardware i2c to the zephyr port. Similar to other ports
such as stm32 and nrf, we only implement the i2c protocol functions
(readfrom and writeto) and defer memory operations (readfrom_mem,
readfrom_mem_into, and writeto_mem) to the software i2c implementation.
This may need to change in the future because zephyr is considering
deprecating its i2c_transfer function in favor of i2c_write_read; in this
case we would probably want to implement the memory operations directly
using i2c_write_read.
Tested with the accelerometer on frdm_k64f and bbc_microbit boards.
Python defines warnings as belonging to categories, where category is a
warning type (descending from exception type). This is useful, as e.g.
allows to disable warnings selectively and provide user-defined warning
types. So, implement this in MicroPython, except that categories are
represented just with strings. However, enough hooks are left to implement
categories differently per-port (e.g. as types), without need to patch each
and every usage.
Configurable via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_STR_COUNT. Default is enabled.
Disabled for bare-arm, minimal, unix-minimal and zephyr ports. Disabling
it saves 408 bytes on x86.
Target RAM size is no longer set using Kconfig options, but instead using
DTS (device tree config). Fortunately, the default is now set to a high
value, so we don't need to use DTS fixup.
CONFIG_NET_NBUF_RX_COUNT no longer exists in Zephyr, for a while. That
means we build with the default RX buf count for a while too, and it works,
so just remove it (instead of switching to what it was renamed to,
CONFIG_NET_PKT_RX_COUNT).
Add CONFIG_NET_DHCPV4, which, after
https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/pull/5750 works as follows:
static addresses are configured after boot, and DHCP requests are sent
at the same time. If valid DHCP reply is received, it overrides static
addresses.
This setup works out of the box for both direct connection to a
workstation (DHCP server usually is not available) and for connection
to a router (DHCP is available and required).
This patch moves the implementation of stream closure from a dedicated
method to the ioctl of the stream protocol, for each type that implements
closing. The benefits of this are:
1. Rounds out the stream ioctl function, which already includes flush,
seek and poll (among other things).
2. Makes calling mp_stream_close() on an object slightly more efficient
because it now no longer needs to lookup the close method and call it,
rather it just delegates straight to the ioctl function (if it exists).
3. Reduces code size and allows future types that implement the stream
protocol to be smaller because they don't need a dedicated close method.
Code size reduction is around 200 bytes smaller for x86 archs and around
30 bytes smaller for the bare-metal archs.
If TEST is defined, file it refers to will be used as the testsuite
source (should be generated with tools/tinytest-codegen.py).
"make-bin-testsuite" script is introduce to build such a binary.
This time hopefully should work reliably, using make $(wildcard) function,
which in this case either expands to existing prj_$(BOARD).conf file, or to
an empty string for non-existing one.
This patch simplifies the str creation API to favour the common case of
creating a str object that is not forced to be interned. To force
interning of a new str the new mp_obj_new_str_via_qstr function is added,
and should only be used if warranted.
Apart from simplifying the mp_obj_new_str function (and making it have the
same signature as mp_obj_new_bytes), this patch also reduces code size by a
bit (-16 bytes for bare-arm and roughly -40 bytes on the bare-metal archs).
While this console API improves handling on real hardware boards
(e.g. clipboard paste is much more reliable, as well as programmatic
communication), it vice-versa poses problems under QEMU, apparently
because it doesn't emulate UART interrupt handling faithfully. That
leads to inability to run the testsuite on QEMU at all. To work that
around, we have to suuport both old and new console routines, and use
the old ones under QEMU.
Ideally, these should be configurable from Python (using network module),
but as that doesn't exist, we better off using Zephyr's native bootstrap
configuration facility.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums
Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
mp_obj_t type
py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions
Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.
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.
