2021 May 29 Breaking Changes Update (#13034)
* Add Per Key functionality for AutoShift (#11536)

* LED Matrix: Reactive effect buffers & advanced indicators (#12588)

* [Keyboard] kint36: switch to sym_eager_pk debouncing (#12626)

* [Keyboard] kint2pp: reduce input latency by ≈10ms (#12625)

* LED Matrix: Split (#12633)

* [CI] Format code according to conventions (#12650)

* feat: infinite timeout for leader key (#6580)

* feat: implement leader_no_timeout logic

* docs(leader_key): infinite leader timeout docs

* Format code according to conventions (#12680)

* Update ADC driver for STM32F1xx, STM32F3xx, STM32F4xx (#12403)

* Fix default ADC_RESOLUTION for ADCv3 (and ADCv4)

Recent ChibiOS update removed ADC_CFGR1_RES_10BIT from the ADCv3 headers
(that macro should not have been there, because ADCv3 has CFGR instead of
CFGR1).  Fix the default value for ADC_RESOLUTION to use ADC_CFGR_RES_10BITS
if it is defined (that name is used for ADCv3 and ADCv4).

* Update ADC docs to match the actually used resolution

ADC driver for ChibiOS actually uses the 10-bit resolution by default
(probably to match AVR); fix the documentation accordingly.  Also add
both ADC_CFGR_RES_10BITS and ADC_CFGR1_RES_10BIT constants (these names
differ according to the ADC implementation in the particular MCU).

* Fix pinToMux() for B12 and B13 on STM32F3xx

Testing on STM32F303CCT6 revealed that the ADC mux values for B12 and
B13 pins were wrong.

* Add support for all possible analog pins on STM32F1xx

Added ADC mux values for pins A0...A7, B0, B1, C0...C5 on STM32F1xx
(they are the same at least for STM32F103x8 and larger F103 devices, and
also F102, F105, F107 families).  Actually tested on STM32F103C8T6
(therefore pins C0...C5 were not tested).

Pins F6...F10, which are present on STM32F103x[C-G] in 144-pin packages,
cannot be supported at the moment, because those pins are connected only
to ADC3, but the ChibiOS ADC driver for STM32F1xx supports only ADC1.

* Add support for all possible analog pins on STM32F4xx

Added ADC mux values for pins A0...A7, B0, B1, C0...C5 and optionally
F3...F10 (if STM32_ADC_USE_ADC3 is enabled).  These mux values are
apparently the same for all F4xx devices, except some smaller devices may
not have ADC3.

Actually tested on STM32F401CCU6, STM32F401CEU6, STM32F411CEU6 (using
various WeAct “Blackpill” boards); only pins A0...A7, B0, B1 were tested.

Pins F3...F10 are inside `#if STM32_ADC_USE_ADC3` because some devices
which don't have ADC3 also don't have the GPIOF port, therefore the code
which refers to Fx pins does not compile.

* Fix STM32F3xx ADC mux table in documentation

The ADC driver documentation had some errors in the mux table for STM32F3xx.
Fix this table to match the datasheet and the actual code (mux settings for
B12 and B13 were also tested on a real STM32F303CCT6 chip).

* Remove pointless SERIAL_LINK_ENABLE rules (#12846)

* Make Swap Hands use PROGMEM (#12284)

This converts the array that the Swap Hands feature uses to use PROGMEM,
and to read from that array, as such. Since this array never changes at
runtime, there is no reason to keep it in memory. Especially for AVR
boards, as memory is a precious resource.

* Update doc

* Rework rgblight blinking according to requested change

* optimize storage

* Fixup housekeeping from being invoked twice per loop. (#12933)

* matrix: wait for row signal to go HIGH for every row (#12945)

I noticed this discrepancy (last row of the matrix treated differently than the
others) when optimizing the input latency of my keyboard controller, see also
https://michael.stapelberg.ch/posts/2021-05-08-keyboard-input-latency-qmk-kinesis/

Before this commit, when tuning the delays I noticed ghost key presses when
pressing the F2 key, which is on the last row of the keyboard matrix: the
dead_grave key, which is on the first row of the keyboard matrix, would be
incorrectly detected as pressed.

After this commit, all keyboard matrix rows are interpreted correctly.

I suspect that my setup is more susceptible to this nuance than others because I
use GPIO_INPUT_PIN_DELAY=0 and hence don’t have another delay that might mask
the problem.

Breaking Changes

This document describes QMK's Breaking Change process. A Breaking Change is any change which modifies how QMK behaves in a way that in incompatible or potentially dangerous. We limit these changes so that users can have confidence that updating their QMK tree will not break their keymaps.

The breaking change period is when we will merge PR's that change QMK in dangerous or unexpected ways. There is a built-in period of testing so we are confident that any problems caused are rare or unable to be predicted.

What has been included in past Breaking Changes?

When is the next Breaking Change?

The next Breaking Change is scheduled for August 28, 2021.

Important Dates

  • 2021 May 29 - develop is created. Each push to master is subsequently merged to develop
  • 2021 Jul 31 - develop closed to new PR's.
  • 2021 Jul 31 - Call for testers.
  • 2021 Aug 26 - master is locked, no PR's merged.
  • 2021 Aug 28 - Merge develop to master.
  • 2021 Aug 28 - master is unlocked. PR's can be merged again.

What changes will be included?

To see a list of breaking change candidates you can look at the breaking_change label. New changes might be added between now and when develop is closed, and a PR with that label applied is not guaranteed to be merged.

If you want your breaking change to be included in this round you need to create a PR with the breaking_change label and have it accepted before develop closes. After develop closes no new breaking changes will be accepted.

Criteria for acceptance:

  • PR is complete and ready to merge
  • PR has a ChangeLog
