This change adds support for the ESP32-C3, a new chip from Espressif. It
is a RISC-V core so porting was comparatively easy.
Most peripherals are shared with the (original) ESP32 chip, but with
subtle differences. Also, the SVD file I've used gives some
peripherals/registers a different name which makes sharing code harder.
Eventually, when an official SVD file for the ESP32 is released, I
expect that a lot of code can be shared between the two chips.

- stack scheduler
- interrupts
- most peripherals (SPI, I2C, PWM, etc)
At startup, a large chunk of virtual memory is used up by the heap. This
works fine in emulation (qemu-arm), but doesn't work so well on an
actual Raspberry Pi. Therefore, this commit reduces the requested amount
until a heap size is found that works on the system.
This can certainly be improved, but for now it's an important fix
because it allows TinyGo built binaries to actually run on a Raspberry
Pi with just 1GB RAM.
This allows the assembly routines in these files to be stripped as dead
code if they're not referenced. This solves the link issues on MacOS
when the `leaking` garbage collector or the `coroutines` scheduler
are selected.
Fixes#2081
heapptr is assinged to heapStart (which is 0) when it's declared, but preinit()
may have moved the heap somewhere else. Set heapptr to the proper value
of heapStart when we initialize the heap properly.
This allows the leaking allocator to work on unix.
This flag is passed automatically with the (new) -v flag for TinyGo. For
example, this prints all the test outputs:
$ tinygo test -v crypto/md5
=== RUN TestGolden
--- PASS: TestGolden
=== RUN TestGoldenMarshal
--- PASS: TestGoldenMarshal
=== RUN TestLarge
--- PASS: TestLarge
=== RUN TestBlockGeneric
--- PASS: TestBlockGeneric
=== RUN TestLargeHashes
--- PASS: TestLargeHashes
PASS
ok crypto/md5 0.002s
This prints just a summary:
$ tinygo test crypto/md5
PASS
ok crypto/md5 0.002s
(The superfluous 'PASS' message may be removed in the future).
This is especially useful when testing a large number of packages:
$ tinygo test crypto/md5 crypto/sha1 crypto/sha256 crypto/sha512
PASS
ok crypto/md5 0.002s
PASS
ok crypto/sha1 0.043s
PASS
ok crypto/sha256 0.002s
PASS
ok crypto/sha512 0.003s
At the moment, the -test.v flag is not supplied to binaries running in
emulation. I intend to fix this after
https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/2038 lands by refactoring
runPackageTest, Run, and runTestWithConfig in the main package which all
do something similar.
This is mainly useful to be able to run `tinygo test`, for example:
tinygo test -target=cortex-m-qemu -v math
This is not currently supported, but will be in the future.
This makes them more flexible, especially with Go 1.17 making the
situation more complicated (see
1d20a362d0).
It also makes it possible to do the same for many other functions, such
as assembly implementations of cryptographich functions which are
similarly dependent on the architecture.
Previously we used the i386 target, probably with all optional features
disabled. However, the Pentium 4 has been released a _long_ time ago and
it seems reasonable to me to take that as a minimum requirement.
Upstream Go now also seems to move in this direction:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/40255
The main motivation for this is that there were floating point issues
when running the tests for the math package:
GOARCH=386 tinygo test math
I haven't investigated what's the issue, but I strongly suspect it's
caused by the weird x87 80-bit floating point format. This could perhaps
be fixed in a different way (by setting the FPU precision to 64 bits)
but I figured that just setting the minimum requirement to the Pentium 4
would probably be fine. If needed, we can respect the GO386 environment
variable to support these very old CPUs.
To support this newer CPU, I had to make sure that the stack is aligned
to 16 bytes everywhere. This was not yet always the case.
The math package failed the package tests on arm64 and wasm:
GOARCH=arm64 tinygo test math
Apparently the builtins llvm.maximum.f64 and llvm.minimum.f64 have
slightly different behavior on arm64 and wasm compared to what Go
expects.
This doesn't have the potential blocking issue of the getentropy call
(which calls WASI random_get when using wasi-libc) and should therefore
be a lot faster.
For context, this is what the random_get documentation says:
> Write high-quality random data into a buffer. This function blocks
> when the implementation is unable to immediately provide sufficient
> high-quality random data. This function may execute slowly, so when
> large mounts of random data are required, it's advisable to use this
> function to seed a pseudo-random number generator, rather than to
> provide the random data directly.
This commit fixes two things:
* It changes the alignment to 16 bytes (from 4), to match max_align_t
in C.
* It manually aligns heapStart on WebAssembly, to work around a bug in
wasm-ld with --stack-first (see https://reviews.llvm.org/D106499).
This function previously returned the atomic time, that isn't affected
by system time changes but also has a time base at some arbitrary time
in the past. This makes sense for baremetal platforms (which typically
don't know the wall time) but it gives surprising results on Linux and
macOS: time.Now() usually returns a time somewhere near the start of
1970.
This commit fixes this by obtaining both time values: the monotonic time
and the wall clock time. This is also how the Go runtime implements the
time.now function.
These two heaps conflict with each other, so that if any function uses
the dlmalloc heap implementation it will eventually result in memory
corruption.
This commit fixes this by implementing all heap-related functions. This
overrides the functions that are implemented in wasi-libc. That's why
all of them are implemented (even if they just panic): to make sure no
program accidentally uses the wrong one.
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 commit implements various process related functions like
os.Getuid() and os.Getpid(). It also implements or improves this support
in the syscall package if it isn't available yet.
