New uasyncio module, code formatting, BTstack bindings with unix support
This release of MicroPython includes a new implementation of the uasyncio
module which aims to be more compatible with CPython's asyncio module. The
main change is to use a Task object for each coroutine, allowing more
flexibility to queue tasks in various places, eg the main run loop, tasks
waiting on events, locks or other tasks. It no longer requires
pre-allocating a fixed queue size for the main run loop. A pairing heap is
used to queue Tasks, and the core is optionally implemented in C.
Most code in this repository is now auto-formatted using uncrustify for C
code and Black for Python code. The tools/codeformat.py script is used to
apply this formatting. Options for uncrustify were chosen to match as
closely as possible the existing C style, but there were nevertheless quite
a few changes to make the code style consistent.
BlueKitchen BTstack bindings have been added for the ubluetooth module, as
an optional alternative to the NimBLE stack. The unix port can now be
built with BLE support using these bindings, which works with USB Bluetooth
adaptors (this feature is enabled by default on the dev and coverage
variants).
Other Bluetooth additions include: new events for service/characteristic/
descriptor discovery complete; new events for read done and indicate
acknowledgement; and support for active scanning in BLE.gap_scan(). See
also below for breaking changes to the ubluetooth BLE API.
PEP 526 has been implemented which adds new syntax for variable
annotations, such as "x:int = 1". PEP 572 has also been implemented, which
adds the ":=" operator for assignment expressions, such as "if x := 1:...".
The whole code base now supports compressing error messages (those strings
used as arguments to exception instances) using a "common word" scheme,
which can be used to reduce code size.
Other new features include: support for non-boolean results for equality
and inequality tests; the addition of the micropython.heap_locked()
function to test the state of the heap; binary operations for viper uint
operands in the native emitter; and mtime support on littlefs v2
filesystems (which can be disabled if needed).
There has been an important bug fix when importing ARM machine code from
an .mpy file: the system now correctly tracks the executable memory
allocated to the machine code so this memory is not reclaimed by the
garbage collector.
For testing, a multi-instance test runner has been added (see
tests/run-multitests.py) which allows running a synchronised test across
two or more MicroPython targets. This is currently used for network and
BLE tests that require communication between multiple devices.
In the unix port different builds are now organised into build variants,
analogous to boards on bare-metal. And PEP 475 has been implemented which
retries syscalls failing with EINTR.
The stm32 port sees improved support for STM32WB MCUs, with ADC, SPI and
DMA support, along with support in mboot for these MCUs. Mboot also adds
optional littlefs support.
The esp8266 port now includes three generic board definitions:
GENERIC_512K, GENERIC_1M and GENERIC, with the latter for modules with 2M
or more of flash. This port also changed the default filesystem to
littlefs, and no longer supports hard pin IRQs. See breaking changes below
for more details.
The esp32 port now enables Bluetooth support (via NimBLE) on both IDF v3
and v4 builds. It also changes the default filesystem from FAT to littlefs
v2 (but existing devices with FAT filesystems will continue to work without
change).
There is also a new mimxrt port which targets NXP i.MX RT series CPUs.
Breaking changes in this release are:
- async-for no longer await's on the result of __aiter__. The __aiter__
method should return an async-iterable object but is not itself
awaitable.
See commit 37e1b5c891f9964bb6c95228bc2d718511507a69
- In ubluetooth, the IRQ event constants have all changed value (from a
bitfield to a sequential integer) and Python code should be updated
accordingly by replacing the const definitions with the new ones, which
can be found at
https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/library/ubluetooth.html#ubluetooth.BLE.irq
See also commit e6881f08292d03f089185718c131f543d095089b
- In ubluetooth, the IRQ data for the _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT event has had the
"connectable" entry changed to "adv_type". The existing connectable
value was a boolean and True now becomes 0x00, False becomes 0x02.
See commit dd0bc26e65734b8a4fafa3769008e92e2ec6645d
- For esp8266, the default filesystem has changed from FAT to littlefs v2.
And the flash layout of the firmware and filesystem has changed to give
more space to the firmware and frozen bytecode. When upgrading an
existing esp8266 device the filesystem will be reformatted so files
should be backed up first.
See commit e0905e85a7ad2961aa9192f6130565860e531ad3
- For esp8266, machine.Pin no longer supports configuring a pin IRQ with
"hard=True" (because the interrupt handling code is moved to iRAM).
Existing code using pin IRQs should remove any "hard=True" argument.
See commit 0bd58a56137bd9124756ed0f57b4213daccfc7d5
- For the unix port, binaries are renamed to micropython-variant (no longer
micropython_variant).
See commit 977b532c8fcd1a9e12844dd4f9cc2d70341013d7
