- Adds an explicit way to set the size of a value's internal buffer,
replacing `ble.gatts_write(handle, bytes(size))` (although that
still works).
- Add an "append" mode for values, which means that remote writes
will append to the buffer.
This commit adds helper functions to call readblocks/writeblocks with a
fourth argument, the byte offset within a block.
Although the mp_vfs_blockdev_t struct has grown here by 2 machine words, in
all current uses of this struct within this repository it still fits within
the same number of GC blocks.
For consistency with "umachine". Now that weak links are enabled
by default for built-in modules, this should be a no-op, but allows
extension of the bluetooth module by user code.
Also move registration of ubluetooth to objmodule rather than
port-specific.
NimBLE doesn't actually copy this data, it requires it to stay live.
Only dereference when we register a new set of services.
Fixes#5226
This will allow incrementally adding services in the future, so
rename `reset` to `append` to make it clearer.
Internally change the representation of UUIDs to LE uint8* to simplify this.
This allows UUIDs to be easily used in BLE payloads (such as advertising).
Ref: #5186
This avoids a confusing ENOMEM raised from gap_advertise if there is
currently an active connection. This refers to the static connection
buffer pre-allocated by Nimble (nothing to do with MicroPython heap
memory).
This is to more accurately match the BLE spec, where intervals are
configured in units of channel hop time (625us). When it was
specified in ms, not all "valid" intervals were able to be
specified.
Now that we're also allowing configuration of scan interval, this
commit updates advertising to match.
This adds two additional optional kwargs to `gap_scan()`:
- `interval_us`: How long between scans.
- `window_us`: How long to scan for during a scan.
The default with NimBLE is a 11.25ms window with a 1.28s interval.
Changing these parameters is important for detecting low-frequency
advertisements (e.g. beacons).
Note: these params are in microseconds, not milliseconds in order
to allow the 625us granularity offered by the spec.
On other ports (e.g. ESP32) they provide a complete Nimble implementation
(i.e. we don't need to use the code in extmod/nimble). This change
extracts out the bits that we don't need to use in other ports:
- malloc/free/realloc for Nimble memory.
- pendsv poll handler
- depowering the cywbt
Also cleans up the root pointer management.
