Updates the reference typestub for
rp2.asm_piodecorator to include the new parameters proposed in MicroPython PR #18133.Changes
New
asm_piodecorator parameters:execctrl=0- Configures additional execution control options. Can be used with constants likePIO.STATUS_TXLEVEL + nto trigger status checks based on FIFO thresholds.side_pindir: Optional[bool] = None- When set toTrue, configures.side()modifiers to be used for pin directions instead of pin values (the default whenFalse).New PIO constants:
PIO.STATUS_TXLEVEL = 0- Status value for TX FIFO level thresholdPIO.STATUS_RXLEVEL = 32- Status value for RX FIFO level thresholdPIO.STATUS_IRQ = 64- Status value for IRQ flagsUsage Example
With these updates, developers can now use advanced PIO features like:
This enables interrupt generation when the TX FIFO has fewer than 5 words left, and configures side-set pins to control directions rather than values.
Backward Compatibility
All existing code remains fully compatible - these are optional parameters with sensible defaults that match the current behavior.
