When you use the USER button to perform a filesystem reset
at boot time then it wipes out the filesystem and creates
a new boot.py and main.py. With this patch these files are
executed after formatting, ensuring that pyb and machine modules
get imported.
Per CPython docs, "Registering a file descriptor that’s already registered
is not an error, and has the same effect as registering the descriptor
exactly once."
https://docs.python.org/3/library/select.html#select.poll.register
That's somewhat ambiguous, what's implemented here is that if fd si not
yet registered, it is registered. Otherwise, the effect is equivalent to
modify() method.
Usually this checking is done by VM on jump instructions, but for linear
sequences of instructions and builtin functions this won't happen. Particular
target of this change is long-running builtin functions like time.sleep().
This is a hack to free up TIM3 so that it can be used by the user.
Instead we use the PVD irq to call the USB VCP polling function, and
trigger it from SysTick (so SysTick itself does not do any processing).
The feature is enabled for pyboard lite only, since it lacks timers.
Consider the following scenario: SD card is being read by pyboard; USB
irq comes in for MSC read request; SD card needs to be read from within
USB irq while SD read is already ongoing. Such contention needs to be
avoided.
This patch provides a simple solution, to raise the irq priority above
that of the USB irq during SD DMA transfers. Pyboard and PC can now
read from the SD card at the same time (well, reads are interleaved).
As set by signal handler. This assumes that exception will be raised
somewhere else, which so far doesn't happen for single function call.
Still, it makes sense to handle that in some common place.
In non-blocking mode (timeout=0), uart.write() can now transmit all of its
data without raising an exception. uart.read() also works correctly in
this mode.
As part of this patch, timout_char now has a minimum value which is long
enough to transfer 1 character.
Addresses issue #1533.
To use, put the following in mpconfigport.h:
#define MICROPY_OBJ_REPR (MICROPY_OBJ_REPR_D)
#define MICROPY_FLOAT_IMPL (MICROPY_FLOAT_IMPL_DOUBLE)
typedef int64_t mp_int_t;
typedef uint64_t mp_uint_t;
#define UINT_FMT "%llu"
#define INT_FMT "%lld"
Currently does not work with native emitter enabled.
This allows the mp_obj_t type to be configured to something other than a
pointer-sized primitive type.
This patch also includes additional changes to allow the code to compile
when sizeof(mp_uint_t) != sizeof(void*), such as using size_t instead of
mp_uint_t, and various casts.
THis is required to deal well with signals, signals being the closest
analogue of hardware interrupts for POSIX. This is also CPython 3.5
compliant behavior (PEP 475).
The main problem implementing this is to figure out how much time was
spent in waiting so far/how much is remaining. It's well-known fact that
Linux updates select()'s timeout value when returning with EINTR to the
remaining wait time. Here's what POSIX-based standards say about this:
(http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/pselect.html):
"Upon successful completion, the select() function may modify the object
pointed to by the timeout argument."
I.e. it allows to modify timeout value, but doesn't say how exactly it is
modified. And actually, it allows such modification only "upon successful
completion", which returning with EINTR error hardly is.
POSIX also allows to request automatic EINTR restart for system calls using
sigaction call with SA_RESTART flag, but here's what the same document says
about it:
"If SA_RESTART has been set for the interrupting signal, it is
implementation-defined whether the function restarts or returns with
[EINTR]."
In other words, POSIX doesn't leave room for both portable and efficient
handling of this matter, so the code just allows to manually select
Linux-compatible behavior with MICROPY_SELECT_REMAINING_TIME option,
or otherwise will just raise OSError. When systems with non-Linux behavior
are found, they can be handled separately.
