It could be expensive to call Size() three times, and it is unnecessary.
Instead, do it only once.
This results in a very small reduction of binary size if Zero() is used.
* Initialize the ADC in Configure() (instead of in Get()).
* Do not set all channels to "not connected" - that's already the
reset value.
* Don't disable the ADC after use. It's not necessary to disable
(current consumption appears to remain the same whether enabled or
disabled).
* Rename pinetime-devkit0 to pinetime because the production device is
almost the same hardware (the only noticeable difference is a
different accelerometer, which isn't part of the board file).
* Remove the UART and set serial to none. The UART uses a lot of
current by default, so it seems better to disable it.
This is a breaking change, but honestly I think I'm the only one who has
ever actually used TinyGo for the PineTime and I'm fine with this
change :)
The old code was broken and led to a HardFault in a rather convoluted
way:
1. The CFA offset was incorrect, in fact it was not aligned (the stack
is supposed to always be aligned to 4 bytes at least).
2. This unaligned size was then used for stack size calculations.
3. A stack that wasn't a multiple of 4 was allocated.
4. The calleeSavedRegs struct (in `(internal/task.state).archInit`) was
not correctly aligned.
5. Writing to this struct resulted in a HardFault.
This is not very useful in itself, but makes it possible to detect this
address in the output. See the next commit.
This adds around 50 bytes to each binary (except for AVR and wasm). This
is unfortunate, but I think this feature is quite useful still.
A future enhancement might be to create a build tag for extended panic
information that's not set by default.
Multisampling/averaging (using the Samples configuration property) was
returning incorrect values. When I investigated this, I found that the
samd51 gives erratic values when using multisampling together with fewer
than 16 bits resolution.
I fixed this by forcing 16 bit resolution when multisampling, and
adjusting the output to account for multisampling.
Found while reading the battery value on a pybadge, which gave
non-sensible values with Samples set to a value larger than 1.
This improves slightly. It also is some groundwork for better DMA
support in TinyGo in the future.
I'm not entirely sure why it improves performance (in theory the old
code should already saturate the SPI bus) but it does, so 🤷
The SPI frequency was rounded up, not rounded down. This meant that if
you wanted to configure 15MHz for example, it would pick the next
available frequency (24MHz). That's unsafe, the safe option is to round
down and the SPI support for most other chips also rounds down for this
reason.
In addition, I've improved SPI clock selection so that it will pick the
best clock of the two, widening the available frequencies. See the
comments in the patch for details.
