socket.timeout is a subclass of OSError, and using the latter is more
efficient than having a dedicated class. The argument of OSError is
ETIMEDOUT so the error can be distinguished from other kinds of
OSErrors. This follows how the esp8266 port does it.
Since we recently replaced the OSError string messages with simple error
codes, having the uerrno module gets back some user friendly error
messages. The total code size (after removing strings, replacing with
uerrno module) is decreased.
The port now uses the common mp_utime_ticks_{ms,us,cpu,add,diff} functions
from extmod/utime_mphal.c.
The mp_utime_sleep_XXX functions are still cc3200-specific because they
handle the GIL differently to the ones in extmod.
The files misc/mpsystick.[ch] have been removed because they contain 2
unused functions, and the other remaining function is renamed to
mp_hal_ticks_us and moved to hal/cc3200_hal.c.
Implementations of persistent-code reader are provided for POSIX systems
and systems using FatFS. Macros to use these are MICROPY_READER_POSIX and
MICROPY_READER_FATFS respectively. If an alternative implementation is
needed then a port can define the function mp_reader_new_file.
This type was used only for the typedef of mp_obj_t, which is now defined
by the object representation. So we can now remove this unused typedef,
to simplify the mpconfigport.h file.
These macros are broken and are anyway unused on these two ports. If they
are ever needed in the future then their implementation can be taken from
either stmhal (working macros in mpconfigport.h) or esp8266 (functions).
To let unix port implement "machine" functionality on Python level, and
keep consistent naming in other ports (baremetal ports will use magic
module "symlinking" to still load it on "import machine").
Fixes#1701.
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
Remove unused and unneeded functions, also create Pin.get_config() that
returns the whole configuration of the pin.
This reduces code size by ~500 bytes.
Previous to this patch the printing mechanism was a bit of a tangled
mess. This patch attempts to consolidate printing into one interface.
All (non-debug) printing now uses the mp_print* family of functions,
mainly mp_printf. All these functions take an mp_print_t structure as
their first argument, and this structure defines the printing backend
through the "print_strn" function of said structure.
Printing from the uPy core can reach the platform-defined print code via
two paths: either through mp_sys_stdout_obj (defined pert port) in
conjunction with mp_stream_write; or through the mp_plat_print structure
which uses the MP_PLAT_PRINT_STRN macro to define how string are printed
on the platform. The former is only used when MICROPY_PY_IO is defined.
With this new scheme printing is generally more efficient (less layers
to go through, less arguments to pass), and, given an mp_print_t*
structure, one can call mp_print_str for efficiency instead of
mp_printf("%s", ...). Code size is also reduced by around 200 bytes on
Thumb2 archs.
