The esp32 port moves to CMake and has S2 support, new features for rp2 This release of MicroPython adds general support in the core for using CMake as a build system. The rp2 port is consolidated to use the new CMake files, and the esp32 and zephyr ports have switched to build as pure CMake projects. These three ports have SDKs which are built around CMake and this change should make them easier to maintain and use. As part of this work, CMake based ports now have support for user C modules. Authors of user C modules should now provide both .mk and .cmake configuration files (following the documentation and examples). A bug was fixed in the multiple precision integer library, an arithmetic overflow in the long division routine. Prior to this fix certain integer divisions would take excessive time and produce incorrect results. See commit 0a59938574502b19b3d685133084399c090d3c11 for details. There was also a fix for regular expressions, to check and report byte overflow errors when compiling expressions. See commit 172fb5230a3943eeb6fbbb4de1dc56b16e2a7637. In the uasyncio library, a new MicroPython extension has been added, ThreadSafeFlag, which can be set from outside the asyncio event loop, such as other threads, IRQs or scheduler context. It allows preemptive code like IRQs to signal asyncio tasks, which are by nature cooperative (non-preemptive). asyncio.current_task() has also been added, with the same semantics as CPython. As mentioned above, the esp32 port has switched to a full CMake-based project, and traditional make capability has been removed (although a simple helper Makefile remains to keep top-level build/deploy commands consistent with other ports). Because of the move to CMake, network.LAN support has been removed, to be added back in the future (use a prior release if LAN is needed). Basic support for Non-Volatile-Storage is added to the esp32 module. And there is also preliminary support for ESP32S2 SoCs and USB, with a GENERIC_S2 board defined. On the mimxrt and samd ports, USB CDC TX handling has been fixed so that it now works reliably. The rp2 port has had many more core Python features enabled, along with the enabling of ubinascii.crc32(), the uos.VfsFat and machine.Signal classes, and the uerrno module. uos.urandom() has been added and machine.freq() can now change the CPU clock frequency. The machine.UART class now has support for timeout/timeout_char, inverted TX/RX lines, and buffered TX/RX with configurable sized buffers. For PIO, StateMachine has added restart(), rx_fifo() and tx_fifo() helper functions, and support for FIFO joining. There is now support for user C modules (via CMake) and for building different board configurations (the default remains the PICO board). USB reliability has been improved. For the stm32 port, there is now more configuration options for boards, such as USBD VID/PID and fine-grained selection of modules. The UART class now supports LPUART on L0, L4, H7 and WB MCUs. WB MCUs have a fix for a race condition accessing the BLE ACL free buffer list, and a workaround for a low-level BLE bug. The zephyr port has been updated to use zephyr v2.5.0, and now builds MicroPython as a CMake target.
