* machine/atsamd21: implement PWM interface for all pins that support it
* machine/atsamd21: correct PWM channel mapping for pin PA18
* machine/atsamd21: move clock init into InitPWM() to hopefully save power
Use stringIterator.byteindex as the loop index, and remove
stringIterator.rangeindex, as "the index of the loop is the starting
position of the current rune, measured in bytes". This patch also fixes
the current loop index returned by stringNext, using `it.byteindex'
before - not after - `length' is added.
* machine/uart: add core support for multiple UARTs by allowing for multiple RingBuffers
* machine/uart: complete core support for multiple UARTs
* machine/uart: no need to store pointer to UART, better to treat like I2C and SPI
* machine/uart: increase ring buffer size to 128 bytes
* machine/uart: improve godocs comments and use comma-ok idiom for buffer Put/Get methods
Extract directly from the string instead of calling the len() builtin.
This is both cleaner and avoids a zero-extension to an integer on AVR,
which led to a LLVM verification error.
The magic CGo construct to turn a C array into a slice turned out to be
not portable.
Note: this is not the only problem, there is also a bug in the Go
bindings for LLVM. With that one fixed, it is possible to build TinyGo
on a Raspberry Pi (32-bit).
Support for channels is not complete. The following pieces are missing:
* Channels with values bigger than int. An int in TinyGo can always
contain at least a pointer, so pointers are okay to send.
* Buffered channels.
* The select statement.
Before this commit, goroutine support was spread through the compiler.
This commit changes this support, so that the compiler itself only
generates simple intrinsics and leaves the real support to a compiler
pass that runs as one of the TinyGo-specific optimization passes.
The biggest change, that was done together with the rewrite, was support
for goroutines in WebAssembly for JavaScript. The challenge in
JavaScript is that in general no blocking operations are allowed, which
means that programs that call time.Sleep() but do not start goroutines
also have to be scheduled by the scheduler.
Do not try to use the ExectutionEngine of Go, instead compile the
program in the conventional way and run the binary.
This fixes some code duplication that causes slight (but problematic)
misbehavior between `tinygo build` and `tinygo run`.
This was necessary before, when only some functions had a context
parameter. Now this is not necessary anymore because all functions
(independent of signature) have a context paramter at the end so the
signature always automatically matches.
This commit does two things:
* It adds support for the GOOS and GOARCH environment variables. They
fall back to runtime.GO* only when not available.
* It adds support for 3 new architectures: 386, arm, and arm64. For
now, this is Linux-only.
* all: add support for specifying target CPU in target config
* avr: specify the chip name in the target CPU
This reduces code size by a large margin. For examples/blinky, it
reduces code size from 1360 to 1266 when compiling for the Arduino Uno
(94 bytes, or ~7%).
By running these interprocedural optimizations after interface lowering,
in particular the heap-to-stack transformation pass, interfaces can be
zero cost in some more cases.
For example, say you have the following interface:
type Writer interface {
Write([]byte) (int, error)
}
and you do something with it:
func foo(w io.Writer) {
w.Write([]byte("foo"))
}
this commit enables escape analysis across interface boundaries, which
means that the Write call does not cause an allocation if all
implementations of io.Writer do not let the slice escape. This enables
broader uses of interfaces, as they are now a zero-cost abstraction in
more cases.
