This achieves a substantial performance improvement when rendering glyphs
to color displays, the benefit increasing proportional to the number of
pixels in the glyph.
This allows the write to trigger a notification or indication, but only to
subscribed clients. This is different to gatts_notify/gatts_indicate,
which will unconditionally notify/indicate.

Anywhere a module is mentioned, use its "non-u" name for consistency.
The "import module" vs "import umodule" is something of a FAQ, and this
commit intends to help clear that up. As a first approximation MicroPython
is Python, and so imports should work the same as Python and use the same
name, to a first approximation. The u-version of a module is a detail that
can be learned later on, when the user wants to understand more and have
finer control over importing.
Existing Python code should just work, as much as it is possible to do that
within the constraints of embedded systems, and the MicroPython
documentation should match the idiomatic way to write Python code.
With universal weak links for modules (via MICROPY_MODULE_WEAK_LINKS) users
can consistently use "import foo" across all ports (with the exception of
the minimal ports). And the ability to override/extend via "foo.py"
continues to work well.

This enables optional support for the hardware UART to use the RTS and/or
CTS pins for flow control.
The new "flow" constructor keyword specifies a bitmask of RTS and/or CTS.
This matches the interface used by machine.UART on stm32 and rp2.
Previously on ESP32 it was possible to specify which pins to use for the
RTS and CTS signals, but hardware flow control was never functional: CTS
was not checked before transmitting bytes, and RTS was always driven high
(signalling no buffer space available). With this patch, CTS and RTS both
operate as expected.
This also includes an update to the machine.UART documentation.

Add new API for specifying the idle level and TX carrier output level, and
new write_pulses modes of operation. Also fix wait_done documentation
which was inverted and wrong about timing.
The RTC in rp2 can store any, even wrong, number as a weekday in RTC. It
was, however, discussed in #7394 that we would like to unify all ports and
use 0 as Monday, not Sunday in the machine.RTC implementation.
This patch makes sure that the default date set in RTC is adheres to this
convention. It also fixes the example in quickref to use proper weekday to
avoid confusion.

This adds an initial specification of the machine.PWM class, to provide a
way to generate PWM output that is portable across the different ports.
Such functionality may already be available in one way or another (eg
through a Timer object), but because configuring PWM via a Timer is very
port-specific, and because it's a common thing to do, it's beneficial to
have a top-level construct for it.
The specification in this commit aims to provide core functionality in a
minimal way. It also somewhat matches most existing ad-hoc implementations
of machine.PWM.

This commit adds the errno attribute to exceptions, so code can retrieve
errno codes from an OSError using exc.errno.
The implementation here simply lets `errno` (and the existing `value`)
attributes work on any exception instance (they both alias args[0]). This
is for efficiency and to keep code size down. The pros and cons of this
are:
Pros:
- more compatible with CPython, less difference to document and learn
- OSError().errno will correctly return None, whereas the current way of
doing it via OSError().args[0] will raise an IndexError
- it reduces code size on most bare-metal ports (because they already have
the errno qstr)
- for Python code that uses exc.errno the generated bytecode is 2 bytes
smaller and more efficient to execute (compared with exc.args[0]); so
bytecode loaded to RAM saves 2 bytes RAM for each use of this attribute,
and bytecode that is frozen saves 2 bytes flash/ROM for each use
- it's easier/shorter to type, and saves 2 bytes of space in .py files that
use it (for each use)
Cons:
- increases code size by 4-8 bytes on minimal ports that don't already have
the `errno` qstr
- all exceptions now have .errno and .value attributes (a cpydiff test is
added to address this)

This commit implements basic NVS support for the esp32. It follows the

more types.

uses the code originally found in cmodules.rst, which has been updated to
reflect this and partially rewritten with more complete information.
Support C++ code in .cpp files by providing CXX counterparts of the
_USERMOD_ flags we have for C already. This merely enables the Makefile of
user C modules to use variables specific to C++ compilation, it is still up
to each port's main Makefile to also include these in the build.
It requires mp_hal_time_ns() to be provided by a port. This function
allows very accurate absolute timestamps.

This is consistent with the other 'micro' modules and allows implementing

Note this is a breaking change (not backwards compatible) for ports which
do not enable weak links, as "import sys" must now be replaced with
"import usys".
This adds an additional optional parameter to gap_scan() to select active

This commit adds support for modification time of files on littlefs v2
filesystems, using file attributes. For some background see issue #6114.
Features/properties of this implementation:
- Only supported on littlefs2 (not littlefs1).
- Uses littlefs2's general file attributes to store the timestamp.
- The timestamp is 64-bits and stores nanoseconds since 1970/1/1 (if the
range to the year 2554 is not enough then additional bits can be added to
this timestamp by adding another file attribute).
- mtime is enabled by default but can be disabled in the constructor, eg:
uos.mount(uos.VfsLfs2(bdev, mtime=False), '/flash')
- It's fully backwards compatible, existing littlefs2 filesystems will work
without reformatting and timestamps will be added transparently to
existing files (once they are opened for writing).
- Files without timestamps will open correctly, and stat will just return 0
for their timestamp.
- mtime can be disabled or enabled each mount time and timestamps will only
be updated if mtime is enabled (otherwise they will be untouched).

- method overloads must not be declared as a separate method or must

This commit allows the user to set/get the GAP device name used by service

MICROPY_PY_BLUETOOTH_DEFAULT_NAME is renamed to
MICROPY_PY_BLUETOOTH_DEFAULT_GAP_NAME to emphasise its link to GAP and this
new "gap_name" config value. And the default value of this for the NimBLE

This commit adds several small items to improve the support for OTA

automatic roll-back in the bootloader
- a new esp32.Partition.mark_app_valid_cancel_rollback() class-method to
signal that the boot is successful and should not be rolled back at the
next reset
- an automated test for doing an OTA update
- documentation updates

This commit changes the esp8266 boards to use littlefs v2 as the
filesystem, rather than FAT. Since the esp8266 doesn't expose the
filesystem to the PC over USB there's no strong reason to keep it as FAT.
Littlefs is smaller in code size, is more efficient in use of flash to
store data, is resilient over power failure, and using it saves about 4k of
heap RAM, which can now be used for other things.
This is a backwards incompatible change because all existing esp8266 boards
will need to update their filesystem after installing new firmware (eg
backup old files, install firmware, restore files to new filesystem).
As part of this commit the memory layout of the default board (GENERIC) has
changed. It now allocates all 1M of memory-mapped flash to the firmware,
so the filesystem area starts at the 2M point. This is done to allow more
frozen bytecode to be stored in the 1M of memory-mapped flash. This
requires an esp8266 module with 2M or more of flash to work, so a new board
called GENERIC_1M is added which has the old memory-mapping (but still
changed to use littlefs for the filesystem).
In summary there are now 3 esp8266 board definitions:
- GENERIC_512K: for 512k modules, doesn't have a filesystem.
- GENERIC_1M: for 1M modules, 572k for firmware+frozen code, 396k for
filesystem (littlefs).
- GENERIC: for 2M (or greater) modules, 968k for firmware+frozen code,
1M+ for filesystem (littlefs), FAT driver also included in firmware for
use on, eg, external SD cards.
