Prior to this commit, the actual I2C frequency can be faster than specified
one and it may exceed the I2C's specification for Fast Mode. The frequency
of SCL should be less than or equal to 400KHz in Fast Mode.
This commit fixes this issue for F4 MCUs by rounding up the division in the
frequency calculation.
Allows reserving CAN, I2C, SPI, Timer and UART peripherals. If reserved
the peripheral cannot be accessed from Python.

Before this patch I2C transactions using a hardware I2C peripheral on F0/F7
MCUs would not correctly generate the I2C restart condition, and instead
would generate a stop followed by a start. This is because the CR2 AUTOEND
bit was being set before CR2 START when the peripheral already had the I2C
bus from a previous transaction that did not generate a stop.
As a consequence all combined transactions, eg read-then-write for an I2C
memory transfer, generated a stop condition after the first transaction and
didn't generate a stop at the very end (but still released the bus). Some
I2C devices require a repeated start to function correctly.
This patch fixes this by making sure the CR2 AUTOEND bit is set after the
start condition and slave address have been fully transferred out.
Previously the hardware I2C timeout was hard coded to 50ms which isn't
guaranteed to be enough depending on the clock stretching specs of the I2C
device(s) in use.
This patch ensures the hardware I2C implementation honors the existing
timeout argument passed to the machine.I2C constructor. The default
timeout for software and hardware I2C is now 50ms.
Due to buffering of outgoing bytes on the I2C bus, detection of a NACK
using the ISR_NACKF flag needs to account for the case where ISR_NACKF
corresponds to the previous-to-previous byte.
This driver uses low-level register access to control the I2C peripheral
(ie it doesn't rely on the ST HAL) and provides the same C-level API as the
existing F7 hardware driver.
Rather than pin objects themselves. The actual object is now pin_X_obj and
defines are provided so that pin_X is &pin_X_obj. This makes it so that
code that uses pin objects doesn't need to know if they are literals or
objects (that need pointers taken) or something else. They are just
entities that can be passed to the map_hal_pin_xxx functions. This mirrors
how the core handles constant objects (eg mp_const_none which is
&mp_const_none_obj) and allows for the possibility of different
implementations of the pin layer.
For example, prior to this patch there was the following:
extern const pin_obj_t pin_A0;
#define pyb_pin_X1 pin_A0
...
mp_hal_pin_high(&pin_A0);
and now there is:
extern const pin_obj_t pin_A0_obj;
#define pin_A0 (&pin_A0_obj)
#define pyb_pin_X1 pin_A0
...
mp_hal_pin_high(pin_A0);
This patch should have minimal effect on board configuration files. The
only change that may be needed is if a board has .c files that configure
pins.
genhdr/pins.h is an internal header file that defines all of the pin
objects and it's cleaner to have pin.h include it (where the struct's for
these objects are defined) rather than an explicit include by every user.
The CMSIS files for the STM32 range provide macros to distinguish between
the different MCU series: STM32F4, STM32F7, STM32H7, STM32L4, etc. Prefer
to use these instead of custom ones.
This patch adds in internal config value MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_HW_I2C that is
automatically configured, and enabled only if one or more hardware I2C
ports are defined in the mpconfigboard.h file. If none are defined then
the pyb.I2C class is excluded from the build, along with all supporting
code. The machine.I2C class will still be available for software I2C.
Disabling all hardware I2C on an F4 board saves around 10,000 bytes of code
and 200 bytes of RAM.
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.
Previous to this patch the i2c.scan() method would do up to 100 probes per
I2C address, to detect the devices on the bus. This repeated probing was a
relic from when the code was copied from the accelerometer initialisation,
which requires to do repeated probes while waiting for the accelerometer
chip to turn on.
But I2C devices shouldn't need more than 1 probe to detect their presence,
and the generic software I2C implementation uses 1 probe successfully. So
this patch changes the implementation to use 1 probe per address, which
significantly speeds up the scan operation.
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.
