For ports that have a system malloc which is not garbage collected (eg
unix, esp32), the stream object for the DB must be retained separately to
prevent it from being reclaimed by the MicroPython GC (because the
berkeley-db library uses malloc to allocate the DB structure which stores
the only reference to the stream).
Although in some cases the user code will explicitly retain a reference to
the underlying stream because it needs to call close() on it, this is not
always the case, eg in cases where the DB is intended to live forever.
Fixes issue #5940.
GPIO interrupts can occur when the flash ROM cache is in use and so the
GPIO interrupt handler must be in iRAM. This commit moves the handler to
iRAM, and also moves mp_sched_schedule to iRAM which is called by
pin_intr_handler.
As part of this fix the Pin class can no longer support hard=True in the
Pin.irq() method, because the VM and runtime are too big to put in iRAM.
Fixes#5714.
Explicitly add the repository as upstream and fetch the master commit.
This makes this bare-arm/minimal job more robust when finding the
fork-point of a PR relative to upstream/master (especially for forks of
this repo).
No functionality change is intended with this commit, it just consolidates
the separate implementations of GC helper code to the lib/utils/ directory
as a general set of helper functions useful for any port. This reduces
duplication of code, and makes it easier for future ports or embedders to
get the GC implementation correct.
Ports should now link against gchelper_native.c and either gchelper_m0.s or
gchelper_m3.s (currently only Cortex-M is supported but other architectures
can follow), or use the fallback gchelper_generic.c which will work on
x86/x64/ARM.
The gc_helper_get_sp function from gchelper_m3.s is not really GC related
and was only used by cc3200, so it has been moved to that port and renamed
to cortex_m3_get_sp.
But only when bluetooth is enabled, i.e. if building the dev or coverage
variants, and we have libusb available.
Update travis to match, i.e. specify the variant when doing
`make submodules`.
One can now use `-i micropython` and `-i cpython` to add instances using
the `MICROPYTHON` and `CPYTHON3` variables (which can be overridden by env
vars).
This commit adds full support to the unix port for Bluetooth using the
common extmod/modbluetooth Python bindings. This uses the libusb HCI
transport, which supports many common USB BT adaptors.
This allows user code that inherits from uio.IOBase to return an errno
error code from the user readinto/write function, by returning a negative
value. Eg returning -123 means an errno of 123. This is already how the
custom ioctl works.
This change is made for two reasons:
1. A 3rd-party library (eg berkeley-db-1.xx, axtls) may use the system
provided errno for certain errors, and yet MicroPython stream objects
that it calls will be using the internal mp_stream_errno. So if the
library returns an error it is not known whether the corresponding errno
code is stored in the system errno or mp_stream_errno. Using the system
errno in all cases (eg in the mp_stream_posix_XXX wrappers) fixes this
ambiguity.
2. For systems that have threading the system-provided errno should always
be used because the errno value is thread-local.
For systems that do not have an errno, the new lib/embed/__errno.c file is
provided.
