There are currently 7 ports that implement machine.WDT and a lot of code is duplicated across these implementations. This commit factors the common parts of all these implementations to a single location in extmod/machine_wdt.c. This common code provides the top-level Python bindings (class and method wrappers), and then each port implements the back end specific to that port. With this refactor the ports remain functionally the same except for: - The esp8266 WDT constructor now takes keyword arguments, and accepts the "timeout" argument but raises an exception if it's not the default value (this port doesn't support changing the timeout). - The mimxrt and samd ports now interpret the argument to WDT.timeout_ms() as signed and if it's negative truncate it to the minimum timeout (rather than it being unsigned and a negative value truncating to the maximum timeout).

- Ethernet (not on Teensy 4.0 and MIMXRT1010_EVK)
Known issues:
TODO:
- More peripherals (Counter, I2S, CAN, etc)
- More Python options
Build Instructions
Before building the firmware for a given board the MicroPython cross-compiler must be built; it will be used to pre-compile some of the built-in scripts to bytecode. The cross-compiler is built and run on the host machine, using:
$ make -C mpy-cross
This command should be executed from the root directory of this repository. All other commands below should be executed from the ports/mimxrt/ directory.
An ARM compiler is required for the build, along with the associated binary
utilities. The default compiler is arm-none-eabi-gcc, which is available for
Arch Linux via the package arm-none-eabi-gcc, for Ubuntu via instructions
here, or
see here for the main GCC ARM
Embedded page. The compiler can be changed using the CROSS_COMPILE variable
when invoking make.
In addition newlib is required which is available for Arch Linux via the
package arm-none-eabi-newlib, for Ubuntu/Debian install package libnewlib-arm-none-eabi
Next, the board to build must be selected. Any of the board names of the
subdirectories in the boards/ directory is a valid board. The board name
must be passed as the argument to BOARD= when invoking make.
All boards require certain submodules to be obtained before they can be built.
The correct set of submodules can be initialised using (with SEEED_ARCH_MIX
as an example of the selected board):
$ make BOARD=SEEED_ARCH_MIX submodules
Then to build the board's firmware run:
$ make BOARD=SEEED_ARCH_MIX
The above command should produce binary images in the build-SEEED_ARCH_MIX/
subdirectory (or the equivalent directory for the board specified).
