Only SET_OUTPUT() and WRITE() for now, reading follows later.
A loop like this:
SET_OUTPUT(PIO0_1);
for (;;) {
WRITE(PIO0_1, 0);
WRITE(PIO0_1, 1);
}
toggles a pin at about 5.3 MHz. The low period is 63 ns on the
scope, so 3 clock cycles. With this loop, the binary is 1648
bytes.
Assembly shows four instructions inside the loop, which is about
as good as it can get:
movs r2, #0
str r2, [r3, #8]
adds r2, #2
str r2, [r3, #8]
For comparison, using the MBED provided gpio routines give a
toggle frequency of about 300 kHz, with a low period of 72 clock
cycles. Microoptimisation isn't just the last few percent ...
Tested with this code before main():
static void delay(uint32_t delay) {
while (delay) {
__ASM volatile ("nop");
delay--;
}
}
... and in main():
SET_OUTPUT(PIO0_1);
SET_OUTPUT(PIO0_2);
SET_OUTPUT(PIO0_3);
SET_OUTPUT(PIO0_4);
__ASM (".balign 16");
while (1) {
// 1 pulse on pin 1, two pulses on pin 2, ...
WRITE(PIO0_1, 0);
WRITE(PIO0_1, 1);
WRITE(PIO0_2, 0);
WRITE(PIO0_2, 1);
WRITE(PIO0_2, 0);
WRITE(PIO0_2, 1);
WRITE(PIO0_3, 0);
WRITE(PIO0_3, 1);
WRITE(PIO0_3, 0);
WRITE(PIO0_3, 1);
WRITE(PIO0_3, 0);
WRITE(PIO0_3, 1);
// PIO0_4 needs a pullup 10k to 3.3V
// to show a visible signal.
WRITE(PIO0_4, 0);
delay(10);
WRITE(PIO0_4, 1);
delay(10);
WRITE(PIO0_4, 0);
delay(10);
WRITE(PIO0_4, 1);
delay(10);
WRITE(PIO0_4, 0);
delay(10);
WRITE(PIO0_4, 1);
delay(10);
WRITE(PIO0_4, 0);
delay(10);
WRITE(PIO0_4, 1);
delay(1000);
}
With a 10k pullup, PIO0_4 has a rise time of about 1 microsecond.
We previously put replacements for the von Neuman architecture
into arduino.h already, now let's complete this by having only
one #include <avr/pgmspace.h> in arduino.h. Almost all sources
include arduino.h anyways, so this is mostly a code reduction.
This code was accidentally removed long ago in a botched merge. This
patch recovers it and makes it build again. I've done minimal testing
and some necessary cleanup. It compiles and runs, but it probably still
has a few dust bunnies here and there.
I added registers and pin definitions to simulator.h and
simulator/simulator.c which I needed to match my Gen7-based config.
Other configs or non-AVR ports will need to define more or different
registers. Some registers are 16-bits, some are 8-bit, and some are just
constant values (enums). A more clever solution would read in the
chip-specific header and produce saner definitions which covered all
GPIOs. But this commit just takes the quick and easy path to support my
own hardware.
Most of this code originated in these commits:

Add simulation code: use "make sim"
Additional tweaks:
Revert va_args processing for AVR, but keep 'int' generalization
for simulation. gcc wasn't lying. The sim really aborts without this.
Remove delay(us) from simulator (obsolete).
Improve the README.sim to demonstrate working pronterface connection
to sim. Also fix the build instructions.
Appease all stock configs.
Stub out intercom and shush usb_serial when building simulator.
Pretend to be all chip-types for config appeasement.
Replace sim_timer with AVR-simulator timer:
The original sim_timer and sim_clock provided direct replacements
for timer/clock.c in the main code. But when the main code changed,
simcode did not. The main clock.c was dropped and merged into timer.c.
Also, the timer.c now has movement calculation code in it in some
cases (ACCELERATION_TEMPORAL) and it would be wrong to teach the
simulator to do the same thing. Instead, teach the simulator to
emulate the AVR Timer1 functionality, reacting to values written to
OCR1A and OCR1B timer comparison registers.
Whenever OCR1A/B are changed, the sim_setTimer function needs to be
called. It is called automatically after a timer event, so changes
within the timer ISRs do not need to bother with this.
A C++ class could make this requirement go away by noticing the
assignment. On the other hand, a chip-agnostic timer.c would help
make the main code more portable. The latter cleanup is probably
better for us in the long run.
- ATmega32U timer 4 register handling differs from other AVRs:
Change heater.c and mendel.c.
- LUFA USB recognition expanded in Makefile.
- Add section for __AVR_ATmega32U4__ in arduino.h.
