- Implements application tracing module which allows to send arbitrary
data to host over JTAG. This feature is useful for analyzing
program modules behavior, dumping run-time application data etc.
- Implements printf-like logging functions on top of apptrace module.
This feature is a kind of semihosted printf functionality with lower
overhead and impact on system behaviour as compared to standard printf.
The following issues mentioned during MR!341 review were fixed:
1) Core dump test application description
2) Usage of CONFIG_ESP32_ENABLE_COREDUMP_TO_FLASH and CONFIG_ESP32_ENABLE_COREDUMP_TO_UART
3) FLASH_GUARD_START macro usage is fixed in flash API
4) Core dump module logging facility
5) cache util functions doc updated
6) interactive delay before print core dump to uart
7) core dump partion support in build system
New makefile component_wrapper.mk allows some variables to be set
before component.mk is evaluated. This properly fixes problems with
sdkconfig being hard to access in all phases of the build.
Including component_common.mk is no longer necessary and will print a
deprecation warning for components which use it.
This change adds two options (Debug/Release) for optimization level.
Debug enables -O0, release enables -Os and adds -DNDEBUG (which removes all assert() statements).
Debugging symbols are kept in both cases, although we may add an option to strip output file if necessary.
Also we used to define all common compiler flags in CPPFLAGS, and then appended them to CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS.
It makes it impossible to add preprocessor macros to CPPFLAGS at component level (one has to use CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS instead).
Some third party libraries are not compatible with this approach. Changed to the more common way of using these variables.
This also removes logging implementation from bootloader and replaces it
with the one provided by the log component. Some occurrences of printf
and ets_printf have been changed to ESP_LOGx APIs.
