This is how the names will be printed on the sticker that goes on top
of the EMI shield. The shorter names also help saving a few bytes of
RAM and ROM.
When entering the interrupt handler of a given GPIO port, more than
one pin could have pending interrupts, therefore care must be taken
to service each interrupt one by one before leaving.
Remove unused and unneeded functions, also create Pin.get_config() that
returns the whole configuration of the pin.
This reduces code size by ~500 bytes.
Previous to this patch the printing mechanism was a bit of a tangled
mess. This patch attempts to consolidate printing into one interface.
All (non-debug) printing now uses the mp_print* family of functions,
mainly mp_printf. All these functions take an mp_print_t structure as
their first argument, and this structure defines the printing backend
through the "print_strn" function of said structure.
Printing from the uPy core can reach the platform-defined print code via
two paths: either through mp_sys_stdout_obj (defined pert port) in
conjunction with mp_stream_write; or through the mp_plat_print structure
which uses the MP_PLAT_PRINT_STRN macro to define how string are printed
on the platform. The former is only used when MICROPY_PY_IO is defined.
With this new scheme printing is generally more efficient (less layers
to go through, less arguments to pass), and, given an mp_print_t*
structure, one can call mp_print_str for efficiency instead of
mp_printf("%s", ...). Code size is also reduced by around 200 bytes on
Thumb2 archs.
This change helps making the cc3200 port API a bit closer to stmhal.
The ramaining differences are due to the specific hardware details
of each chip. One feature that has been deliberately disabled is the
possibility to add custom names and custom pin mappings. Those
features are nice and convenient, but in this port, code size is a
major concern.
