Summary for Users
=================
Deprecation is scheduled for 2020.01.
Users which depend on this module and cannot switch libraries may copy
the code into to their own application.
As expressed in PR #11724, the UBJSON module has issues which are not easy
or worth fixing.
Before removing the module, it should be marked as deprecated to give users
time to either migrate to another library, or copy the code to their own
private repo.
The deprecation warning has been supressed from the unit tests. This has the
ugly side-effect of supressing deprecation warning in other unit tests too,
but that should not last long, only until the module is finally deleted.
Now that tests with packages have been moved out of `unittests`
re-enable boards with enough memory.
The removed boards list matches the boards that now compiled locally
with `BUILD_IN_DOCKER=1 make buildtest` and also the output of murdock
for boards that were able to link despite being in the list:
avsextrem:gnu
cc2538dk:gnu
firefly:gnu
mbed_lpc1768:gnu
msba2:gnu
openmote-b:gnu
openmote-cc2538:gnu
remote-pa:gnu
remote-reva:gnu
remote-revb:gnu
seeeduino_arch-pro:gnu
Newlib-nano does not seem to support hexadecimal floats or the %a
specifier. What is even weirder, it reports a successful conversion
anyways.
Tests for these two cases have been commented out.
The build system contains several instances of
INCLUDES += -I$(RIOTBASE)/sys/posix/include
This is bypassing the module management system, by directly accesing
headers without depending on a module. The module is the posix module.
That line is also added when one of the posix_* modules is requested.
According to the docs, the posix module provides headers only, but in
reality there is also inet.c.
This patch:
- Moves `inet.c` into `posix_inet`, leaving `posix` as a headers-only
module.
- Rename `posix` as `posix_headers` to make it clear the module only
includes headers.
- Makes `posix_*` modules depend on `posix_headers`, thus removing the
explicit `INCLUDES+=...` in `sys/Makefile.include`.
- Ocurrences of `INCLUDES+=...` are replaced by an explicit dependency
on `posix_headers`.
Added arduino-nano to BOARD_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY/BOARD_BLACKLIST following suit
of how arduino-uno is marked, as arduino-nano is mostly an Uno in a different
form factor.
