2021-11-17docs/library/framebuf.rst: Adjust dimensions in example.Sebastian Wicki
This commit swaps the dimensions of the `framebuffer.FrameBuffer` in the docs example from 10x100 to 100x10 pixels to avoid clipping. This is done to better fit the subsequent example code, which writes text of size 96x8 followed by a 96x1 horizontal line. The y coordinate of the horizontal line is also adjusted such that it is drawn inside of the new canvas bounds.
2021-11-13rp2/machine_i2s: Add I2S protocol support.Mike Teachman
This commit adds I2S protocol support for the rp2 port: - I2S API is consistent with STM32 and ESP32 ports - I2S configurations supported: - master transmit and master receive - 16-bit and 32-bit sample sizes - mono and stereo formats - sampling frequency - 3 modes of operation: - blocking - non-blocking with callback - uasyncio - internal ring buffer size can be tuned - DMA IRQs are managed on an I2S object basis, allowing other RP2 entities to use DMA IRQs when I2S is not being used - MicroPython documentation - tested on Raspberry Pi Pico development board - build metric changes for this commit: text(+4552), data(0), bss(+8) Signed-off-by: Mike Teachman <mike.teachman@gmail.com>

2021-09-16all: Remove MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE.Jim Mussared
This commit removes all parts of code associated with the existing MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE optimisation option, including the -mcache-lookup-bc option to mpy-cross. This feature originally provided a significant performance boost for Unix, but wasn't able to be enabled for MCU targets (due to frozen bytecode), and added significant extra complexity to generating and distributing .mpy files. The equivalent performance gain is now provided by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE (which has been enabled on the unix port in the previous commit). It's hard to provide precise performance numbers, but tests have been run on a wide variety of architectures (x86-64, ARM Cortex, Aarch64, RISC-V, xtensa) and they all generally agree on the qualitative improvements seen by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE. For example, on a "quiet" Linux x64 environment (i3-5010U @ 2.10GHz) the change from CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, to LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH combined with MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE is: diff of scores (higher is better) N=2000 M=2000 bccache -> attrmapcache diff diff% (error%) bm_chaos.py 13742.56 -> 13905.67 : +163.11 = +1.187% (+/-3.75%) bm_fannkuch.py 60.13 -> 61.34 : +1.21 = +2.012% (+/-2.11%) bm_fft.py 113083.20 -> 114793.68 : +1710.48 = +1.513% (+/-1.57%) bm_float.py 256552.80 -> 243908.29 : -12644.51 = -4.929% (+/-1.90%) bm_hexiom.py 521.93 -> 625.41 : +103.48 = +19.826% (+/-0.40%) bm_nqueens.py 197544.25 -> 217713.12 : +20168.87 = +10.210% (+/-3.01%) bm_pidigits.py 8072.98 -> 8198.75 : +125.77 = +1.558% (+/-3.22%) misc_aes.py 17283.45 -> 16480.52 : -802.93 = -4.646% (+/-0.82%) misc_mandel.py 99083.99 -> 128939.84 : +29855.85 = +30.132% (+/-5.88%) misc_pystone.py 83860.10 -> 82592.56 : -1267.54 = -1.511% (+/-2.27%) misc_raytrace.py 21490.40 -> 22227.23 : +736.83 = +3.429% (+/-1.88%) This shows that the new optimisations are at least as good as the existing inline-bytecode-caching, and are sometimes much better (because the new ones apply caching to a wider variety of map lookups). The new optimisations can also benefit code generated by the native emitter, because they apply to the runtime rather than the generated code. The improvement for the native emitter when LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE are enabled is (same Linux environment as above): diff of scores (higher is better) N=2000 M=2000 native -> nat-attrmapcache diff diff% (error%) bm_chaos.py 14130.62 -> 15464.68 : +1334.06 = +9.441% (+/-7.11%) bm_fannkuch.py 74.96 -> 76.16 : +1.20 = +1.601% (+/-1.80%) bm_fft.py 166682.99 -> 168221.86 : +1538.87 = +0.923% (+/-4.20%) bm_float.py 233415.23 -> 265524.90 : +32109.67 = +13.756% (+/-2.57%) bm_hexiom.py 628.59 -> 734.17 : +105.58 = +16.796% (+/-1.39%) bm_nqueens.py 225418.44 -> 232926.45 : +7508.01 = +3.331% (+/-3.10%) bm_pidigits.py 6322.00 -> 6379.52 : +57.52 = +0.910% (+/-5.62%) misc_aes.py 20670.10 -> 27223.18 : +6553.08 = +31.703% (+/-1.56%) misc_mandel.py 138221.11 -> 152014.01 : +13792.90 = +9.979% (+/-2.46%) misc_pystone.py 85032.14 -> 105681.44 : +20649.30 = +24.284% (+/-2.25%) misc_raytrace.py 19800.01 -> 23350.73 : +3550.72 = +17.933% (+/-2.79%) In summary, compared to MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, the new MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE options: - are simpler; - take less code size; - are faster (generally); - work with code generated by the native emitter; - can be used on embedded targets with a small and constant RAM overhead; - allow the same .mpy bytecode to run on all targets.

2021-08-13docs: Replace ufoo with foo in all docs.Jim Mussared
Anywhere a module is mentioned, use its "non-u" name for consistency. The "import module" vs "import umodule" is something of a FAQ, and this commit intends to help clear that up. As a first approximation MicroPython is Python, and so imports should work the same as Python and use the same name, to a first approximation. The u-version of a module is a detail that can be learned later on, when the user wants to understand more and have finer control over importing. Existing Python code should just work, as much as it is possible to do that within the constraints of embedded systems, and the MicroPython documentation should match the idiomatic way to write Python code. With universal weak links for modules (via MICROPY_MODULE_WEAK_LINKS) users can consistently use "import foo" across all ports (with the exception of the minimal ports). And the ability to override/extend via "foo.py" continues to work well. Signed-off-by: Jim Mussared <jim.mussared@gmail.com>

2021-08-04esp32/machine_uart: Add flow kw-arg to enable hardware flow control.Will Sowerbutts
This enables optional support for the hardware UART to use the RTS and/or CTS pins for flow control. The new "flow" constructor keyword specifies a bitmask of RTS and/or CTS. This matches the interface used by machine.UART on stm32 and rp2. Previously on ESP32 it was possible to specify which pins to use for the RTS and CTS signals, but hardware flow control was never functional: CTS was not checked before transmitting bytes, and RTS was always driven high (signalling no buffer space available). With this patch, CTS and RTS both operate as expected. This also includes an update to the machine.UART documentation. Signed-off-by: Will Sowerbutts <will@sowerbutts.com>
