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.
This commit adds Loop.new_event_loop() which is used to reset the singleton
event loop. This functionality is put here instead of in Loop.close() to
make it possible to write code that is compatible with CPython.
This adds the Python files in the tests/ directory to be formatted with
./tools/codeformat.py. The basics/ subdirectory is excluded for now so we
aren't changing too much at once.
In a few places `# fmt: off`/`# fmt: on` was used where the code had
special formatting for readability or where the test was actually testing
the specific formatting.
Fixes UDP non-blocking recv so it returns EAGAIN instead of ETIMEDOUT.
Timeout waiting for incoming data is also improved by replacing 100ms delay
with poll_sockets(), as is done in other parts of this module.
Fixes issue #5759.
