This patch also enables non-blocking streams on stmhal port.
One can now make a USB-UART pass-through function:
def pass_through(usb, uart):
while True:
select.select([usb, uart], [], [])
if usb.any():
uart.write(usb.read(256))
if uart.any():
usb.write(uart.read(256))
pass_through(pyb.USB_VCP(), pyb.UART(1, 9600))
Improvements are:
2 ctrl-C's are now needed to truly kill running script on pyboard, so
make CDC interface allow multiple ctrl-C's through at once (ie sending
b'\x03\x03' to pyboard now counts as 2 ctrl-C's).
ctrl-C in friendly-repl can now stop multi-line input.
In raw-repl mode, use ctrl-D to indicate end of running script, and also
end of any error message. Thus, output of raw-repl is always at least 2
ctrl-D's and it's much easier to parse.
pyboard.py is now a bit faster, handles exceptions from pyboard better
(prints them and exits with exit code 1), prints out the pyboard output
while the script is running (instead of waiting till the end), and
allows to follow the output of a previous script when run with no
arguments.
This allows to implement KeyboardInterrupt on unix, and a much safer
ctrl-C in stmhal port. First ctrl-C is a soft one, with hope that VM
will notice it; second ctrl-C is a hard one that kills anything (for
both unix and stmhal).
One needs to check for a pending exception in the VM only for jump
opcodes. Others can't produce an infinite loop (infinite recursion is
caught by stack check).
Before, pyb.stdin/pyb.stdout allowed some kind of access to the USB VCP
device, but it was basic access.
This patch adds a proper USB_VCP class and object with much more control
over the USB VCP device. Create an object with pyb.USB_VCP(), then use
this object as if it were a UART object. It has send, recv, read,
write, and other methods. send and recv allow a timeout to be specified.
Addresses issue 774.
Blanket wide to all .c and .h files. Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.
Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.
Need to wait for the low-level USB driver to send the data over the USB
in-endpoint before the buffer can be used again. This patch adds a
check for this.
Can now choose at boot up whether the USB device is CDC+MSC or CDC+HID.
Choice is made by an option in boot.py, with default being CDC+MSC.
HID+MSC is not currently supported, but should be easy to implement.
Boot up now has ability to change the reset mode: hold down USR switch
while booting and LEDs will count from 1 to 7 to indicate the boot mode.
Release USR when correct mode is selected. Current modes are 1 (normal
boot), 2 (safe mode), 3 (reset FS mode).
Late USB enumeration could clear settings after they had been set.
Now fixed by not clearing some settings on init.
RX was blocking if received characters were not being processed, so
CTRL-C would not be picked up. Now "fixed" by not blocking, but
instead discarding incoming characters if they overflow the buffer.
New USB HAL is quite a bit improved over previous one. Now has better
callbacks and flow control.
REPL over USB CDC now works as before, except for soft-reset (since USB
driver uses malloc...).
