Bare-Metal Raspberry Pi port#3522

Hi, @naums this is very interesting project. |
|
Yes and no. I'm not going to implement that anew. I saw something like a REPL somewhere in the libs-folder. I didn't manage to work out how to link that one into this port, back when I tried the first time, but I could give it another try later. |
|
@naums ok, thanks. |
|
@naums FYI starting from your PR, I tried porting REPL on RPi referring MicroPython on Unicorn. |

Thanks for this, it's great to see ports like this. The work here has been extended by @boochow 's excellent work in the repo linked above, and anyone interested to run MP on bare-metal RPi boards should definitely look at that repo. |

Hello.
This pull requests contains mainly a Makefile and start-code for a bare-metal port of Micropython to the Raspberry Pi along with driver-code for the UART-interface to receive any output from the device. It does not contain additional modules and does not feature any sort of command prompt.
This port works on the Raspberry Pi Zero (tested) and should also work on the Raspberry Pi 1. It will however probably not work out-of-the-box on the Raspberry Pi 2 or 3, as they feature a different processor.
If you want to read more, I wrote a term paper [1] about porting Micropython to bare-metal Raspberry Pi (and adding modules to it).
