This change allows drivers (or any module for that matter) to provide
features. This is e.g. useful if a board does not have a transceiver,
but your application uses `USEMODULE += some_driver`, which implements
the transceiver interface.
The line `FEATURES_PROVIDED += some_feature` should go to the guarded
block in `{sys,drivers}/Makefile.include`.
Please see #1715.
Closes#1715.
This PR implements the new Makefile variables "FEATURES_PROVIDED" and
"FEATURES_REQUIRED". A board *can* have a new file `Makefile.features`
which looks like:
```make
FEATURES_PROVIDED = transceiver
```
An application can have a corresponding line
```make
FEATURES_REQUIRED = transceiver
```
If the selected BOARD does not fulfil the requirements of the
application, then a *warning* is issued at compile time.
This change only includes the feature "transceiver", further features
are expected to be listed in further PRs. The requirement "transceiver"
is automatically added if the application uses the module
"defaulttransceiver".
`make buildtest` understands the new feature listing, so the user won't
need to add boards to `BOARD_BLACKLIST` manually.
Part of the change are the added Make targets
* `info-features-missing`, which prints the required features
`\setminus` the provided features. The output is empty if there are no
features missing.
* `info-boards-features-missing`, the same as `info-features-missing`
but as a table for all boards, but heeded `BOARD_WHITELIST` and
`BOARD_BLACKLIST`.
Applications don't have to use this new feature. This change does not
break existing Makefile.
Sometimes boards/*/Makefile.include (e. g. in case of the msba2) gets included
twice somehow, leading the TERMFLAG to be set twice and faulty. This
fixes that.
This PR converts tabs to white spaces.
The statement I used for the conversion:
'''find . -name "*.[ch]" -exec zsh -c 'expand -t 4 "$0" > /tmp/e && mv /tmp/e "$0"' {} \;'''
Afterwards, I had a quick overview of the converted files to prevent odd indentation.
When waiting for transmission (to CC2420) to be done,
we were wrongly waiting for UCBUSY bit to be set,
while one should actually wait for that bit to be cleared.
Ensure that CS is active and IRQ disabled when querying CCA
on CC2420 (cc2420_get_cca() function).
Also do a little refactoring (renamed c variable into count,
and named the constant corresponding to RSSI "timeout").
We have sane defaults for `ELFFILE` and `HEXFILE` in the root
`Makefile.include`. The local definition for `ELFFILE` of mbed_lpc1768's
`Makefile.include` was wrong, which caused e.g. `make buildsize` to
fail.
