cpu/$(CPU)/Makefile.features and cpu/$(CPU)/Makefile.dep are
automatically included
Part of moving CPU/CPU_MODEL definition to Makefile.features to have it
available before Makefile.include.
Enable the handling of flashing `softdevice.hex` when flashing the firmware
for openocd.
However, for flashing, only the `hexfile` and `binfile` can currently be used.
The `elffile` is generated with local pages aligned to `0x10000` which makes
the program starting at `0x1f000` be flashed from `0x10000` with padding bytes
even if the `.text` section is indeed at `0x1f000`:
readelf --sections bin/nrf52dk/gnrc_networking.elf
...
[ 1] .text PROGBITS 0001f000 00f000 00f698 00 AX 0 0 16
...
readelf --segments bin/nrf52dk/gnrc_networking.elf
...
LOAD 0x000000 0x00010000 0x00010000 0x1e6a0 0x1e6a0 R E 0x10000
...
The padding bytes would go through `verify_image` in `openocd` so be expected
to not be overwritten but are by `softdevice.hex`
Using --nmagic at link time removes the local page alignement but would
need dedicated testing.
softdevice needs the memory at 0x2000 to be initialized to 0xffffffff
according to #5893 and testing. However, the addresses [0x8bc, 0x3000[ are not
set in softdevice.hex.
So use a modified hex file with all the memory set to 0xff as it is the rom
reset value anyway.
This change updates the `.hex` file instead on relying on erasing the
memory.
When running tests using 'nordic_softdevice_ble', the 'softdevice.hex'
file must also be taken into account for the test hashing and be
uploaded to the separated murdock testing boards.
When listed as dependency from `test-input-hash` the file must have a
target, which he has not. The file is implicitly created when compiling
`ELFFILE` so declare it as order only dependency.
In practice `BASELIBS` could be enough or even `pkg-build-softdevice`
but I do not want to be depend that much on internals there.
The softdevice is only verified to be working on nrf52832-based
boards. This feature prevents the softdevice from being build for
other, similar targets (e.g. nrf52840-based boards).
Moved SPI config from boards/common/nrf52xxxdk/include/periph_config.h to
boards/common/nrf52/include/cfg_spi_default.h. This allows all nRF52 based
boards to use this SPI config if applicable and also allows nRF52*-DK boards
to use custom SPI configs, if needed.
