Heap allocation considerations for embedded systems

8

I am a proponent of using a heap on embedded systems. I think there is a lot of unnecessary fear about it. That being said, I also think it needs...

Replace linked-list allocator with TLSF

This appears to be working with the nrf52_dk example I added. I would like to add a bit more instrumentation to it and look into what changes might make sense...

Is it planned (or even desirable) to switch the `Mutex` implementation from the `bare-metal` import (for use with `interrupt::free`) to one using new [`mutex-trait`](github.com/rust-embedded/mutex-trait) and encapsulating `interrupt::free`? #9

Solution for dealing with clocks and time in embedded systems

37

I have just released [`embedded-time`](https://github.com/FluenTech/embedded-time) to handle clocks, instants, durations more easily in embedded contexts. It follows a similar idea to the C++ `std::chrono` library. I'd love to get some...

Release/v0.13.0

## Features - [x] Generic add/sub - [ ] ~sub-unity units (milli, micro, etc)~ (pushing to later release) - [ ] feature support for defmt ## Changes - [x] consistent...

This would make the output of the embedded-time types consistent with the core library

something/duration * duration = something Related to #113

remove generic Timer struct's State parameter

Ref: #75 The State type parameter means that a Timer that is going to change state cannot be (nicely) stored in a struct. Does the Type type parameter also block...

smarter macros for defining intra-unit conversions

There are many instances when converting from a larger-magnitude unit with width u32 to a smaller-magnitude unit with width u64 could use `From`/`Into` rather than their fallible forms. However, my...
