CI: Error generating documentation for device hosted-linux: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

I'll test in hardware and check why the docs generator is broken (yet again).

I enabled DMA2D for the STM32 devices that have it. I don't see any visual difference in performance, but maybe it helps elsewhere.

Nice!

I enabled DMA2D for the STM32 devices that have it. I don't see any visual difference in performance, but maybe it helps elsewhere.

I have not enabled this on purpose and will disable it again because the user has to take care of configuring DMA2D/PXP manually and implementing gpu_fill_cb/gpu_blend_cb. If someone does that he can also enable DMA2D/PXP manually using lv_conf_user.h.

DMA2D would have to become a configurable option in any case, since it could possibly be used by a display driver as well.

Ah, we should mention the lv_conf_local.h mechanism, I'll add a fixup commit in a second.

Hm, there's a file called lv_conf_internal.h that contains a lot of defaults.

We should also implement LV_TICK_CUSTOM_SYS_TIME_EXPR to use modm::Clock::now to remove the need for a manual call to lv_tick_inc().

Ok, I've implemented and tested LV_TICK_CUSTOM_SYS_TIME_EXPR.

The only other thing I found interesting in terms of a modm port was LV_ATTRIBUTE_FAST_MEM which we could set to __attribute__((sections(".fastcode"))). However, 15-20kB of RAM seems like a lot and would probably cause issues if set by default. So I didn't.

/* Prefix performance critical functions to place them into a faster memory (e.g RAM) * Uses 15-20 kB extra memory */ #define LV_ATTRIBUTE_FAST_MEM

Ok, I've played around with the lv_conf.h. The lv_conf_internal.h defines default values for the entire config, so I've removed all definitions (and typedefs) from lv_conf.h that we did not change and moved the lv_conf_local.h before our config. There are two reasons for this:

It removes the need for #undef since we're not double declaring the config. This is a very nice UX improvement.
It makes it easier for us to upgrade LVGL in the future, since we only need to worry about the configs that we've changed, not all configs.

Is this config approach ok for you?

salkinium · 2021-04-05T05:38:11Z

(Sorry about the fixup! mess, I'll happily squash this all together if you want).

Very nice, I like this approach. Thanks!

I built this PR on my attempts from >1 year ago with LittlevGL v5/v6, back then lv_conf_internal.h didn't exist as far as I remember; instead lv_conf.h was checked for completeness using lv_conf_checker.h.

We could also remove all this lbuild options and instead let the user configure them through <lv_conf_local.h>. What do you think?

Edit: Except for LV_MEM_CUSTOM, and below LV_TICK_CUSTOM* and LV_USE_LOG/LV_LOG_LEVEL.

Yes, I would prefer that since the lbuild options don't add any additional benefits (ie. like other modules being able to query display size). I'll add a few more fixups.

I've moved all config options out of lbuild into lv_conf_local.h incl. logging, since it's weird to have to regenerate modm again just for that one option. I like this solution very much, it's very clean and minimal.
