Do it all at once in preparation for Go 1.18 support.
To make this commit, I've simply modified the `fmt-check` Makefile
target to rewrite files instead of listing the differences. So this is a
fully mechanical change, it should not have introduced any errors.
This can be very useful for some purposes:
* It makes it possible to disable the UART in cases where it is not
needed or needs to be disabled to conserve power.
* It makes it possible to disable the serial output to reduce code
size, which may be important for some chips. Sometimes, a few kB can
be saved this way.
* It makes it possible to override the default, for example you might
want to use an actual UART to debug the USB-CDC implementation.
It also lowers the dependency on having machine.Serial defined, which is
often not defined when targeting a chip. Eventually, we might want to
make it possible to write `-target=nrf52` or `-target=atmega328p` for
example to target the chip itself with no board specific assumptions.
The defaults don't change. I checked this by running `make smoketest`
before and after and comparing the results.
This means that machine.UART0, machine.UART1, etc are of type
*machine.UART, not machine.UART. This makes them easier to pass around
and avoids surprises when they are passed around by value while they
should be passed around by reference.
There is a small code size impact in some cases, but it is relatively
minor.
This is only very minimal support. More support (such as tinygo flash,
or peripheral access) should be added in later commits, to keep this one
focused.
Importantly, this commit changes the LLVM repo from llvm/llvm-project to
tinygo-org/llvm-project. This provides a little bit of versioning in
case something changes in the Espressif fork. If we want to upgrade to
LLVM 11 it's easy to switch back to llvm/llvm-project until Espressif
has updated their fork.
- Fix UART & putChar
- Timer-based sleep
- Enable systick in abort
- Buffered, interrupt-based UART TX
- Use the new interrupt API and fix sleepTicks
- Make pins behave more like other boards
- Use the MCU's UART numbering
- Allow interrupts to wake the scheduler (#1214)
Calling errors.New in an error path causes a heap allocation at an
already unfortunate moment. It is more efficient to create these error
values in globals and return these constant globals. If these errors are
not used (because the related code was optimized out), the globals will
also be optimized out.
* 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
