The delay_half parameter must be specified by the port to set up the
timing of the software SPI. This allows the port to adjust the timing
value to better suit its timing characteristics, as well as provide a
more accurate printing of the baudrate.
There is no need to take src_len and dest_len arguments. The case of
reading-only with a single output byte (originally src_len=1, dest_len>1)
is now handled by using the output buffer as the input buffer, and using
memset to fill the output byte into this buffer. This simplifies the
implementations of the spi_transfer protocol function.
The memory read/write I2C functions now take an optional keyword-only
parameter that specifies the number of bits in the memory address.
Only mem-addrs that are a multiple of 8-bits are supported (otherwise
the behaviour is undefined).
Due to the integer type used for the address, for values larger than 32
bits, only 32 bits of address will be sent, and the rest will be padded
with 0s. Right now no exception is raised when that happens. For values
smaller than 8, no address is sent. Also no exception then.
Tested with a VL6180 sensor, which has 16-bit register addresses.
Due to code refactoring, this patch reduces stmhal and esp8266 builds
by about 50 bytes.
When the clock is too fast for the i2c slave, it can temporarily hold
down the scl line to signal to the master that it needs to wait. The
master should check the scl line when it is releasing it after
transmitting data, and wait for it to be released.
This change has been tested with a logic analyzer and an i2c slace
implemented on an atmega328p using its twi peripheral, clocked at 8Mhz.
Without the change, the i2c communication works up to aboy 150kHz
frequency, and above that results in the slave stuck in an unresponsive
state. With this change, communication has been tested to work up to
400kHz.
Adds horizontal scrolling. Right now, I'm just leaving the margins
created by the scrolling as they were -- so they will repeat the
edge of the framebuf. This is fast, and the user can always fill
the margins themselves.
There was a bug in `framebuf1_fill` function, that makes it leave a few
lines unfilled at the bottom if the height is not divisible by 8.
A similar bug is fixed in the scroll method.
The idea is that all ports can use these helper methods and only need to
provide initialisation of the SPI bus, as well as a single transfer
function. The coding pattern follows the stream protocol and helper
methods.
