machine.Timer now takes a new argument in its constructor (or init method):
tick_hz which specified the units for the period argument. The period of
the timer in seconds is: period/tick_hz.
For backwards compatibility tick_hz defaults to 1000. If the user wants to
specify the period (numerator) in microseconds then tick_hz can be set to
1000000. The user can also specify a period of an arbitrary number of
cycles of an arbitrary frequency using these two arguments.
An additional freq argument has been added to allow frequencies to be
specified directly in Hertz. This supports floating point values when
available.
Using direct register control as specified by ESP-IDF in
components/esp32/test/test_tsens.c. Temperature doesn't represent any
particular unit, isn't calibrated and will vary from device to device.
There's no need to call mp_obj_new_int() which will just fail the check for
small int and call mp_obj_new_int_from_ll() anyway.
Thanks to @Jongy for prompting this change.
Prior to this patch, get_fattime() was calling a HAL RTC function with the
HW instance pointer as null because rtc_init_start() was never called.
Also marked it as a weak function, to allow a board to override it.
In non-debug mode MP_OBJ_STOP_ITERATION is zero and comparing something to
zero can be done more efficiently in assembler than comparing to a non-zero
value.
With the recent change b488a4a848, a
generating function now has the same layout in memory as a normal bytecode
function, and so can reuse the latter's attribute accessor code to
implement __name__.
mpy-cross doesn't depend on any code in the extmod directory so completely
exclude it from the build (extmod may still be scanned for qstrs but that
is controlled by py/py.mk). This speeds up the build a little, and
improves abstraction of this component.
Also, make -I$(BUILD) take precedence over -I$(TOP) in case there are stray
files in the root directory that would be picked up.
With this and previous patches the stm32 port can now be compiled using
object representation D (nan boxing). Note that native code and frozen mpy
files with float constants are currently not supported with this object
representation.
Because this function is simple it saves code size to have it inlined.
Being an auxiliary helper function (and only used in the py/ core) the
argument should always be an mp_obj_module_t*, so there's no need for the
assert (and having it would require including assert.h in obj.h).
It's a very simple function and saves code, and improves efficiency, by
being inline. Note that this is an auxiliary helper function and so
doesn't need mp_check_self -- that's used for functions that can be
accessed directly from Python code (eg from a method table).
