Fixes for stmhal USB mass storage, lwIP bindings and VFS regressions This release provides an important fix for the USB mass storage device in the stmhal port by implementing the SCSI SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE command, which is now require by some Operating Systems. There are also fixes for the lwIP bindings to improve non-blocking sockets and error codes. The VFS has some regressions fixed including the ability to statvfs the root. All changes are listed below. py core: - modbuiltins: add core-provided version of input() function - objstr: catch case of negative "maxsplit" arg to str.rsplit() - persistentcode: allow to compile with complex numbers disabled - objstr: allow to compile with obj-repr D, and unicode disabled - modsys: allow to compile with obj-repr D and PY_ATTRTUPLE disabled - provide mp_decode_uint_skip() to help reduce stack usage - makeqstrdefs.py: make script run correctly with Python 2.6 - objstringio: if created from immutable object, follow copy on write policy extmod: - modlwip: connect: for non-blocking mode, return EINPROGRESS - modlwip: fix error codes for duplicate calls to connect() - modlwip: accept: fix error code for non-blocking mode - vfs: allow to statvfs the root directory - vfs: allow "buffering" and "encoding" args to VFS's open() - modframebuf: fix signed/unsigned comparison pendantic warning lib: - libm: use isfinite instead of finitef, for C99 compatibility - utils/interrupt_char: remove support for KBD_EXCEPTION disabled tests: - basics/string_rsplit: add tests for negative "maxsplit" argument - float: convert "sys.exit()" to "raise SystemExit" - float/builtin_float_minmax: PEP8 fixes - basics: convert "sys.exit()" to "raise SystemExit" - convert remaining "sys.exit()" to "raise SystemExit" unix port: - convert to use core-provided version of built-in import() - Makefile: replace references to make with $(MAKE) windows port: - convert to use core-provided version of built-in import() qemu-arm port: - Makefile: adjust object-file lists to get correct dependencies - enable micropython.mem_*() functions to allow more tests stmhal port: - boards: enable DAC for NUCLEO_F767ZI board - add support for NUCLEO_F446RE board - pass USB handler as parameter to allow more than one USB handler - usb: use local USB handler variable in Start-of-Frame handler - usb: make state for USB device private to top-level USB driver - usbdev: for MSC implement SCSI SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE command - convert from using stmhal's input() to core provided version cc3200 port: - convert from using stmhal's input() to core provided version teensy port: - convert from using stmhal's input() to core provided version esp8266 port: - Makefile: replace references to make with $(MAKE) - Makefile: add clean-modules target - convert from using stmhal's input() to core provided version zephyr port: - modusocket: getaddrinfo: Fix mp_obj_len() usage - define MICROPY_PY_SYS_PLATFORM (to "zephyr") - machine_pin: use native Zephyr types for Zephyr API calls docs: - machine.Pin: remove out_value() method - machine.Pin: add on() and off() methods - esp8266: consistently replace Pin.high/low methods with .on/off - esp8266/quickref: polish Pin.on()/off() examples - network: move confusingly-named cc3200 Server class to its reference - uos: deconditionalize, remove minor port-specific details - uos: move cc3200 port legacy VFS mounting functions to its ref doc - machine: sort machine classes in logical order, not alphabetically - network: first step to describe standard network class interface examples: - embedding: use core-provided KeyboardInterrupt object

+Common network adapter interface
+================================
- .. _network.Server:
+This section describes an (implied) abstract base class for all network
+interface classes implemented by different ports of MicroPython for
+different hardware. This means that MicroPython does not actually
+provide `AbstractNIC` class, but any actual NIC class, as described
+in the following sections, implements methods as described here.
- class Server
- ============
+.. class:: AbstractNIC(id=None, ...)
- The ``Server`` class controls the behaviour and the configuration of the FTP and telnet
- services running on the WiPy. Any changes performed using this class' methods will
- affect both.
+Instantiate a network interface object. Parameters are network interface
+dependent. If there are more than one interface of the same type, the first
+parameter should be `id`.
- Example::
+ .. method:: active([is_active])
- import network
- server = network.Server()
- server.deinit() # disable the server
- # enable the server again with new settings
- server.init(login=('user', 'password'), timeout=600)
+ Activate ("up") or deactivate ("down") the network interface, if
+ a boolean argument is passed. Otherwise, query current state if
+ no argument is provided. Most other methods require an active
+ interface (behavior of calling them on inactive interface is
+ undefined).
- Constructors
- ------------
+ .. method:: connect([service_id, key=None, \*, ...])
- .. class:: network.Server(id, ...)
+ Connect the interface to a network. This method is optional, and
+ available only for interfaces which are not "always connected".
+ If no parameters are given, connect to the default (or the only)
+ service. If a single parameter is given, it is the primary identifier
+ of a service to connect to. It may be accompanied by a key
+ (password) required to access said service. There can be further
+ arbitrary keyword-only parameters, depending on the networking medium
+ type and/or particular device. Parameters can be used to: a)
+ specify alternative service identifer types; b) provide additional
+ connection parameters. For various medium types, there are different
+ sets of predefined/recommended parameters, among them:
- Create a server instance, see ``init`` for parameters of initialization.
+ * WiFi: `bssid` keyword to connect by BSSID (MAC address) instead
+ of access point name
- Methods
- -------
+ .. method:: disconnect()
+
+ Disconnect from network.
+
+ .. method:: isconnected()
+
+ Returns ``True`` if connected to network, otherwise returns ``False``.
+
+ .. method:: scan(\*, ...)
+
+ Scan for the available network services/connections. Returns a
+ list of tuples with discovered service parameters. For various
+ network media, there are different variants of predefined/
+ recommended tuple formats, among them:
+
+ * WiFi: (ssid, bssid, channel, RSSI, authmode, hidden). There
+ may be further fields, specific to a particular device.
- .. method:: server.init(\*, login=('micro', 'python'), timeout=300)
+ The function may accept additional keyword arguments to filter scan
+ results (e.g. scan for a particular service, on a particular channel,
+ for services of a particular set, etc.), and to affect scan
+ duration and other parameters. Where possible, parameter names
+ should match those in connect().
- Init (and effectively start the server). Optionally a new ``user``, ``password``
- and ``timeout`` (in seconds) can be passed.
+ .. method:: status()
- .. method:: server.deinit()
+ Return detailed status of the interface, values are dependent
+ on the network medium/technology.
- Stop the server
+ .. method:: ifconfig([(ip, subnet, gateway, dns)])
- .. method:: server.timeout([timeout_in_seconds])
+ Get/set IP-level network interface parameters: IP address, subnet mask,
+ gateway and DNS server. When called with no arguments, this method returns
+ a 4-tuple with the above information. To set the above values, pass a
+ 4-tuple with the required information. For example::
- Get or set the server timeout.
+ nic.ifconfig(('192.168.0.4', '255.255.255.0', '192.168.0.1', '8.8.8.8'))
- .. method:: server.isrunning()
+ .. method:: config('param')
+ config(param=value, ...)
- Returns ``True`` if the server is running, ``False`` otherwise.
+ Get or set general network interface parameters. These methods allow to work
+ with additional parameters beyond standard IP configuration (as dealt with by
+ ``ifconfig()``). These include network-specific and hardware-specific
+ parameters and status values. For setting parameters, the keyword argument
+ syntax should be used, and multiple parameters can be set at once. For
+ querying, a parameter name should be quoted as a string, and only one
+ parameter can be queried at a time::
+
+ # Set WiFi access point name (formally known as ESSID) and WiFi channel
+ ap.config(essid='My AP', channel=11)
+ # Query params one by one
+ print(ap.config('essid'))
+ print(ap.config('channel'))
+ # Extended status information also available this way
+ print(sta.config('rssi'))
