Work around an lld (LLVM 22) bug where l32r PC-relative offsets are
miscalculated when auto-generated .literal.* sections are prepended to
.text.* sections by the linker script. The assembler emits .literal
entries for movi instructions whose constants exceed the 12-bit signed
range; lld then resolves the l32r relocations with incorrect offsets,
causing every l32r in the boot code to load from the wrong literal
pool entry.
The symptom was a TG0WDT_SYS_RESET boot loop: the watchdog disable
code loaded wrong register addresses via l32r and silently wrote to
the wrong peripheral registers, leaving the watchdog running.
Fix by constructing PS_WOE_MASK (0x40000) with movi+slli instead of a
single large-constant movi, eliminating all auto-generated .literal
section entries. This is compatible with both LLVM 20 and LLVM 22.
Also revert DRAM origin to 0x3FFAE000 (200K) and remove rom_phyFuns
symbols that belong in a separate WiFi commit.

Add full flash XIP support for ESP32, enabling code and read-only data to
execute/load directly from flash via the MMU cache rather than consuming
precious SRAM. This increases available RAM from ~328KB to effectively
unlimited for code/rodata, while keeping ~121KB for the Go heap.
Changes:
- src/device/esp/esp32.S: Add MMU initialization in call_start_cpu0
- Call ROM bootloader mmu_init() and cache_flash_mmu_set() to map DROM/IROM
- Enable flash cache via ROM Cache_Read_Enable()
- Fix tinygo_scanCurrentStack to spill all register windows for GC
- targets/esp32-interrupts.S: Add exception diagnostics
- targets/esp32.ld: Major linker script restructure for XIP
- Add DROM (4MB @ 0x3F400000) and IROM (4MB @ 0x400D0000) regions
- Move .rodata to DROM, main .text to IROM (both flash-mapped)
- Keep boot code, vectors, and WiFi blob IRAM sections in SRAM0
- Create WiFi arena in SRAM1 pool 7/6 (64KB @ 0x3FFF0000)
- Move .bss and heap to SRAM2 (200KB @ 0x3FFAE000), avoiding ROM/MAC regions
- Add _drom_flash_addr variable (patched by builder with flash offset)
- targets/esp32.json: Add linker wrap flags for malloc/free and WiFi functions

Replace movi instructions with constants outside the 12-bit signed
range (-2048..2047) with movi+slli sequences. Large constants cause
the assembler to emit auto-generated .literal section entries, which
triggers an lld bug where l32r PC-relative offsets are miscalculated
when .literal.* sections are merged with .text.* sections.

This adds a minimal esp32c6 implementation, currently only
supporting the examples/serial and examples/blinky1 programs.
It does correctly output the expected "Hello, World" via the
serial port, as well as blink the onboard LED.
In addition, it adds support for the PLIC based IRQ handling
as used on the ESP32C6 processor.
Some parts of this code are loosely based on PR #5252 and #5248

* gba: add bios interrupt flags
Adds a new GBA register for interrupt flags, the register is equivalent
to the IF register, but is intended for BIOS functions.
Acknowledging the interrupts with this register allows us to use BIOS
halt functions such as VBlankIntrWait and IntrWait, which we can use to
get rid of busy loops in the GBA code.
* fix formatting

The previous implementation was a bare tail-jump to tinygo_scanstack
without spilling any registers or passing an sp argument. On Xtensa
windowed ABI, heap pointers held in physical registers were invisible
to the conservative GC, causing it to collect live objects and leading
to nil pointer dereferences under allocation pressure.
Flush all register windows to the stack using recursive call4 (15
levels for NAREG=64), then pass the current sp to tinygo_scanstack so
the GC scan from sp to stackTop covers every live value. Interrupts
are briefly masked during the spill to prevent window-overflow
exceptions from interfering.
Fixes crashes on ESP32-S3 observed when serving concurrent HTTP
requests.

Extend the linker script with proper IROM/DROM section layout for flash

The ESP32-S3 ROM bootloader loads IRAM/DRAM into SRAM but does not
configure the flash cache or MMU. Previously the target incorrectly
reused the ESP32 boot assembly (esp32.S) which lacks flash XIP support.
Add a dedicated esp32s3.S boot assembly that:
- Sets up windowed-ABI registers, stack, and FPU
- Disables all watchdog timers (RTC, TIMG0, TIMG1, Super WDT)
- Configures VECBASE and clears PS.EXCM before any callx4
- Calls ROM functions to configure cache modes:
rom_config_instruction_cache_mode (16KB, 8-way, 32B line)
rom_config_data_cache_mode (32KB, 8-way, 32B line)
- Initializes MMU, maps flash page 0 for IROM and DROM,
clears bus-shut bits, and enables both caches
- Jumps to runtime.main in IROM (flash)
Update the linker script (esp32s3.ld) to place .text and .rodata in
flash-mapped regions (IROM/DROM) with proper alignment for the MMU
page size. Update esp32s3-interrupts.S with proper exception vector
handlers. Point esp32s3.json at the new esp32s3.S instead of esp32.S.

This function is called when a hard fault occurs. Hard faults happen
when something really bad happens - like writing to unwritable memory or
an unaligned memory access on Cortex-M0. It is not generally possible to
recover from these.
This commit optimizes the code size overhead of hard fault handling:
* It removes the stack overflow checking code.
This may seem like a bad thing, but the only thing this could check
were stack overflows outside goroutines. In practice, this could
only really happen on a stack overflow in the scheduler (unlikely),
or in interrupt code (possible, but interrupts are small so still
unlikely). Most stack overflows happen in regular goroutines, and
weren't caught in the HardFault.
* It makes the panic message similar to a regular panic. This has two
advantages:
* It reduces code size, because the string can be reused between
the HardFault handler and the runtime panic function.
* Using the same pattern automatically makes `-monitor` print the
source address for the hard fault. Not a big benefit as we could
trivially add any other pattern but a nice benefit nonetheless.

panic: runtime error at 0x00000344: HardFault with sp=0x200007d0
[tinygo: panic at /home/ayke/src/tinygo/tinygo/src/internal/task/task_stack_cortexm.go:48:4]
(This is with https://github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/pull/3680 not yet
fixed and some local changes to configure the UART so I can actually see
the panic).
For atsamd21/nrf51 chips this results in a binary size reduction of
around 100 bytes. For other Cortex-M chips it's around 24 bytes but I
hope to change this in the future because a lot of the fault decoding in
runtime_cortexm_hardfault_debug.go should IMHO be done by the TinyGo
monitor instead (I estimate that this would save around 800 bytes on
these chips).
This commit adds support for a scheduler that runs a scheduler on all
available cores. It is meant to be used on baremetal systems with a
fixed number of cores, such as the RP2040.
The initial implementation adds support for multicore scheduling to the
riscv-qemu target as a convenient testing target. This means that this
new multicore scheduler is tested in CI, including a bunch of standard
library tests (`make tinygo-test-baremetal`). This should ensure the new
scheduler is reasonably well tested before trying to use it on
harder-to-debug targets like the RP2040.
* Fix DMA to SPI transfers on RP2350
DMA DREQ line numbers for "flow control" between SPI bus and DMA channels on RP2350 differ from RP2040.
Tested with st7789 driver for Pico-1.14-LCD from Waveshare on Pico 2W. Without this fix func st7789.tx() blocks indefinitely while attempting to use DMA to SPI transfers.

Without this change, a pending interrupt would spuriously trigger
immediately after enabling. This happens if an interrupt is triggered
during flashing (e.g. by DMA), which survives the subsequent reset.
This behaviour matches e.g. `machine.irqSet` in machine_rp2_rp2350.go.
See 7f970a45, whose symptoms were likely caused by spurious interrupts.

Removes usage of AsmFull which required an optimization pass to remove the map parameter passed into it. This caused issues when compiling with -opt=0 where memory for the map was being allocated as an unintended side-effect of using AsmFull with no optimizations enabled.
The Go tools only consider lowercase .s files to be assembly files. By
renaming these to uppercase .S files they won't be discovered by the Go
toolchain and listed as the SFiles to be assembled.
There is a difference between .s and .S: only uppercase .S will be
passed through the preprocessor. Doing that is normally safe, and
definitely safe in the case of these files.
Go 1.19 started reformatting code in a way that makes it more obvious
how it will be rendered on pkg.go.dev. It gets it almost right, but not
entirely. Therefore, I had to modify some of the comments so that they
are formatted correctly.
Some source code wasn't part of `FMT_PATHS` so wasn't checked for
correct formatting. This change includes all this source code and
excludes cgo/testdata because it contains files that can't be parsed.
Do it all at once in preparation for Go 1.18 support.
To make this commit, I've simply modified the `fmt-check` Makefile
target to rewrite files instead of listing the differences. So this is a
fully mechanical change, it should not have introduced any errors.
Interrupt based time. Adjust tick cost every 1 minute and when timer-0 is reconfigured (the time precision affected when timer-0 reconfigured). Keep all time in nanoseconds.
There were a few issues that were causing qemu-system-arm and
qemu-system-riscv to give the wrong exit codes. They are in fact capable
of exiting with 0 or 1 signalled from the running application, but this
functionality wasn't used. This commit changes this in the following
ways:
* It fixes SemiHosting codes, which were incorrectly written in
decimal while they should have been written in hexadecimal (oops!).
* It modifies all the baremetal main functions (aka reset handlers) to
exit with `exit(0)` instead of `abort()`.
* It changes `syscall.Exit` to call `exit(code)` instead of `abort()`
on baremetal targets.
* It adds these new exit functions where necessary, implemented in a
way that signals the correct exit status if running under QEMU.
All in all, this means that `tinygo test` doesn't have to look at the
output of a test to determine the outcome. It can simply look at the
exit code.
This change adds support for the ESP32-C3, a new chip from Espressif. It
is a RISC-V core so porting was comparatively easy.
Most peripherals are shared with the (original) ESP32 chip, but with
subtle differences. Also, the SVD file I've used gives some
peripherals/registers a different name which makes sharing code harder.
Eventually, when an official SVD file for the ESP32 is released, I
expect that a lot of code can be shared between the two chips.

On some boards the FPU is already enabled on startup, probably as part
of the bootloader. On other chips it was enabled as part of the runtime
startup code. In all these cases, enabling the FPU is currently
unsupported: the automatic stack sizing of goroutines assumes that the
processor won't need to reserve space for FPU registers. Enabling the
FPU therefore can lead to a stack overflow.
This commit either removes the code that enables the FPU, or simply
disables it in startup code. A future change should fully enable the FPU
so that operations on float32 can be performed by the FPU instead of in
software, greatly speeding up such code.
This commit changes the number of wait states for the stm32f103 chip to
2 instead of 4. This gets it back in line with the datasheet, but it
also has the side effect of breaking I2C. Therefore, another (seemingly
unrelated) change is needed: the i2cTimeout constant must be increased
to a higher value to adjust to the lower flash wait states - presumably
because the lower number of wait states allows the chip to run code
faster.
This has been a *lot* of work, trying to understand the Xtensa windowed
registers ABI. But in the end I managed to come up with a very simple
implementation that so far seems to work very well.
I tested this with both blinky examples (with blinky2 slightly edited)
and ./testdata/coroutines.go to verify that it actually works.
Most development happened on the ESP32 QEMU fork from Espressif
(https://github.com/espressif/qemu/wiki) but I also verified that it
works on a real ESP32.
This is only very minimal support. More support (such as tinygo flash,
or peripheral access) should be added in later commits, to keep this one
focused.
Importantly, this commit changes the LLVM repo from llvm/llvm-project to
tinygo-org/llvm-project. This provides a little bit of versioning in
case something changes in the Espressif fork. If we want to upgrade to
LLVM 11 it's easy to switch back to llvm/llvm-project until Espressif
has updated their fork.
