This commit allows debugging like the following:
GOARCH=arm tinygo gdb ./testdata/alias.go
This can be very useful to debug issues on a different instruction set
architecture but still on a host system.
I tested the following 7 configurations to make sure it works and I
didn't break anything:
GOOS=amd64
GOOS=386
GOOS=arm
GOOS=arm64
tinygo gdb -target=hifive1-qemu
tinygo gdb -target=cortex-m-qemu
tinygo gdb -target=microbit
To avoid breaking this, make sure we actually test x86-32 (aka i386 aka
GOARCH=386) support in CI.
Also remove the now-unnecessary binutils-arm-none-eabi package to speed
up CI a bit.
This is a big change that will determine the stack size for many
goroutines automatically. Functions that aren't recursive and don't call
function pointers can in many cases have an automatically determined
worst case stack size. This is useful, as the stack size is usually much
lower than the previous hardcoded default of 1024 bytes: somewhere
around 200-500 bytes is common.
A side effect of this change is that the default stack sizes (including
the stack size for other architectures such as AVR) can now be changed
in the config JSON file, making it tunable per application.
This is necessary for better CGo support on bare metal. Existing
libraries expect to be able to include parts of libc and expect to be
able to link to those symbols.
Because with this all targets have a working libc, it is now possible to
add tests to check that a libc in fact works basically.
Not all parts of picolibc are included, such as the math or stdio parts.
These should be added later, when needed.
This commit also avoids the need for the custom memcpy/memset/memcmp
symbols that are sometimes emitted by LLVM. The C library will take care
of that.
Use the cross compiling toolchains for compiling/linking. This fixes CGo
support, and therefore allows CGo to be used when cross compiling to
Linux on a different architecture.
This commit also removes some redundant testing code.
Add a target for the Adafruit Circuit Playground Bluefruit, which is
based on the nRF52840. Adds the necessary code for the machine
package and the json and linker script files in the targets directory.
The machine package code is based on board_circuitplay_express.go,
with modifications made by consulting the wiring diagram on the
adafruit website here:

Also adds support to the uf2 conversion packacge to set the familyID
field. The Circuit Playground Bluefruit firmware rejects uf2 files
without the family id set to 0xADA52840 (and without the flag specifying
that the family id is present).
This flag is overloaded. It can be used in two ways:
* Choosing the flash method to use (openocd, msd, command).
* Choosing the OpenOCD programmer name.
For example, you can use one of these to use OpenOCD instead of the
mass-storage device programmer:
tinygo flash -target=microbit -programmer=openocd
tinygo flash -target=microbit -programmer=cmsis-dap
Setting the linker script as one property (instead of as part of the
generic ldflags property) allows it to be overriden.
This is important for the SoftDevice on Nordic chips, because the
SoftDevice takes up a fixed part of the flash/RAM and the application
must be flashed at a different position. With this linkerscript option,
it is possible to create (for example) a pca10040-s132v6 that overrides
the default linker script.
