Because arm.SVCall1 lets pointers escape, the return value of
sd_softdevice_is_enabled (passed as a pointer in a parameter) will
escape and thus this value will be heap allocated.
Use a global variable for this purpose instead to avoid the heap
allocation. This is safe as waitForEvent may only be called outside of
interrupts.
- Add some extra fields: FPUPresent, CPU and NVICPrioBits which may
come in handy at a later time (and are easy to add).
- Rename DEVICE to Device, to match Go style.
This is in preparation to the next commit, which requires the FPUPresent
flag.
This currently doesn't work with `tinygo flash` yet (even with
`-programmer=openocd`), you can use pyocd instead. For example, from the
Bluetooth package:
tinygo build -o test.hex -target=microbit-v2-s113v7 ./examples/advertisement/
pyocd flash --target=nrf52 test.hex
I intend to add support for pyocd to work around this issue, so that a simple
`tinygo flash` suffices.
This reduces current consumption from 500-1000µA to very low (<10µA)
current consumption. This change is important for battery powered
devices, especially devices that may be running for long periods of
time.
