2020-04-04esp8266: Change from FAT to littlefs v2 as default filesystem.Damien George
This commit changes the esp8266 boards to use littlefs v2 as the filesystem, rather than FAT. Since the esp8266 doesn't expose the filesystem to the PC over USB there's no strong reason to keep it as FAT. Littlefs is smaller in code size, is more efficient in use of flash to store data, is resilient over power failure, and using it saves about 4k of heap RAM, which can now be used for other things. This is a backwards incompatible change because all existing esp8266 boards will need to update their filesystem after installing new firmware (eg backup old files, install firmware, restore files to new filesystem). As part of this commit the memory layout of the default board (GENERIC) has changed. It now allocates all 1M of memory-mapped flash to the firmware, so the filesystem area starts at the 2M point. This is done to allow more frozen bytecode to be stored in the 1M of memory-mapped flash. This requires an esp8266 module with 2M or more of flash to work, so a new board called GENERIC_1M is added which has the old memory-mapping (but still changed to use littlefs for the filesystem). In summary there are now 3 esp8266 board definitions: - GENERIC_512K: for 512k modules, doesn't have a filesystem. - GENERIC_1M: for 1M modules, 572k for firmware+frozen code, 396k for filesystem (littlefs). - GENERIC: for 2M (or greater) modules, 968k for firmware+frozen code, 1M+ for filesystem (littlefs), FAT driver also included in firmware for use on, eg, external SD cards.

2020-03-11py/modmicropython: Add heap_locked function to test state of heap.Andrew Leech
This commit adds micropython.heap_locked() which returns the current lock-depth of the heap, and can be used by Python code to check if the heap is locked or not. This new function is configured via MICROPY_PY_MICROPYTHON_HEAP_LOCKED and is disabled by default. This commit also changes the return value of micropython.heap_unlock() so it returns the current lock-depth as well.
2020-03-11extmod/modbluetooth: Change scan result's "connectable" to "adv_type".Damien George
This commit changes the BLE _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT data from: addr_type, addr, connectable, rssi, adv_data to: addr_type, addr, adv_type, rssi, adv_data This allows _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT to handle all scan result types (not just connectable and non-connectable passive scans), and to distinguish between them using adv_type which is an integer taking values 0x00-0x04 per the BT specification. This is a breaking change to the API, albeit a very minor one: the existing connectable value was a boolean and True now becomes 0x00, False becomes 0x02. Documentation is updated and a test added. Fixes #5738.

2020-02-11windows: Improve default search path.stijn
The default value for MICROPYPATH used in unix/main.c is "~/.micropython/lib:/usr/lib/micropython" which has 2 problems when used in the Windows port: - it has a ':' as path separator but the port uses ';' so the entire string is effectively discarded since it gets interpreted as a single path which doesn't exist - /usr/lib/micropython is not a valid path in a standard Windows environment Override the value with a suitable default.
2020-02-10docs/library: Fix framebuf monochrome 1-bit modes, swapping HLSB/HMSB.Peter Hinch
This fix can be demonstrated by the following: b = bytearray(32) f = framebuf.FrameBuffer(b, 32, 8, framebuf.MONO_HLSB) f.pixel(0, 0, 1) print('MONO_HLSB', hex(b[0])) b = bytearray(32) f = framebuf.FrameBuffer(b, 32, 8, framebuf.MONO_HMSB) f.pixel(0, 0, 1) print('MONO_HMSB', hex(b[0])) Outcome: MONO_HLSB 0x80 MONO_HMSB 0x1
2020-02-04unix/main: Add command-line -h option for printing help text.David Lechner
This adds a -h option to print the usage help text and adds a new, shorter error message that is printed when invalid arguments are given. This behaviour follows CPython (and other tools) more closely.

2019-12-05extmod/modbluetooth: Allow setting ringbuf size via BLE.config(rxbuf=).Damien George
The size of the event ringbuf was previously fixed to compile-time config value, but it's necessary to sometimes increase this for applications that have large characteristic buffers to read, or many events at once. With this commit the size can be set via BLE.config(rxbuf=512), for example. This also resizes the internal event data buffer which sets the maximum size of incoming data passed to the event handler.
2019-12-04extmod/modbluetooth: Add optional 4th arg to gattc_write for write mode.Damien George
This allows the user to explicitly select the behaviour of the write to the remote peripheral. This is needed for peripherals that have characteristics with WRITE_NO_RESPONSE set (instead of normal WRITE). The function's signature is now: BLE.gattc_write(conn_handle, value_handle, data, mode=0) mode=0 means write without response, while mode=1 means write with response. The latter was the original behaviour so this commit is a change in behaviour of this method, and one should specify 1 as the 4th argument to get back the old behaviour. In the future there could be more modes supported, such as long writes.

2019-11-25extmod/modbluetooth: Simplify management of pre-allocated event data.Jim Mussared
The address, adv payload and uuid fields of the event are pre-allocated by modbluetooth, and reused in the IRQ handler. Simplify this and move all storage into the `mp_obj_bluetooth_ble_t` instance. This now allows users to hold on to a reference to these instances without crashes, although they may be overwritten by future events. If they want to hold onto the values longer term they need to copy them.
