Ken Van Hoeylandt f9453d8956 Migrate devices, create drivers, other improvements & fixes (#574)
Migrated devices to kernel drivers:

- guition-jc3248w535c
- m5stack-core2
- m5stack-cores3
- m5stack-papers3

New drivers:

- axp192-module
- axp2101-module

Fixes:

- Fix SD card LDO for P4 devices
- Updated PowerOff app to work with kernel displays
- Fix for `lvgl_try_lock()` timing
- Fix for touch events with slow updating displays

Improvements:

- `GuiService` now keeps trying to lock to prevent silent failures caused by drivers.
- `GuiService` now uses lvgl-module calls for locking/unlocking
- display driver now has capability `DISPLAY_CAPABILITY_SLOW_REFRESH`

lvgl-module

This module manages the lifecycle of the LVGL library within the Tactility ecosystem.

What the library does

The lvgl-module provides:

  • Lifecycle Management: Handles initialization and termination of the LVGL library.
  • Task Management: Manages the LVGL main loop task.
  • Thread-Safety: Provides mutex-based locking mechanisms (lvgl_lock, lvgl_unlock) to ensure safe access to LVGL APIs from multiple tasks.
  • Font Access: Provides a unified interface to access pre-configured text and icon fonts.

Different types of fonts

The module supports two main categories of fonts:

Text Fonts

Standard text rendering uses the Montserrat font. Three sizes are pre-configured:

  • FONT_SIZE_SMALL
  • FONT_SIZE_DEFAULT
  • FONT_SIZE_LARGE

Icon Fonts

Icons are provided by the Material Symbols font, divided into three usage-specific sets:

  • Statusbar Icons: Optimized for the system status bar.
  • Launcher Icons: Sized for application launchers.
  • Shared Icons: General purpose icons used across the system.

How to update the fonts

Font sizes and symbols are configurable:

  • On ESP32 (IDF): Sizes can be updated via menuconfig or by editing sdkconfig. Look for CONFIG_TT_LVGL_FONT_SIZE_* and CONFIG_TT_LVGL_*_ICON_SIZE parameters.
  • On Simulator/POSIX: Default sizes are defined in Modules/lvgl-module/CMakeLists.txt.

If you change an icon font size, ensure that a corresponding C file exists in source-fonts/ (e.g., material_symbols_shared_24.c). These files are generated from TTF/OTF fonts using the LVGL font converter.
