Modify framebuffer and NGA framebuffer to read screen size from board model dtb file. Optimise memory usuage of frame buffer
Add example minigui application with hooks to profiler (which writes results to S:\). Modified NGA framebuffer to run its own dfc queue at high priority
:mod:`sha` --- SHA-1 message digest algorithm
=============================================
.. module:: sha
:synopsis: NIST's secure hash algorithm, SHA.
:deprecated:
.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake@acm.org>

Use the :mod:`hashlib` module instead.

This module implements the interface to NIST's secure hash algorithm, known as
SHA-1. SHA-1 is an improved version of the original SHA hash algorithm. It is
used in the same way as the :mod:`md5` module: use :func:`new` to create an sha
object, then feed this object with arbitrary strings using the :meth:`update`
method, and at any point you can ask it for the :dfn:`digest` of the
concatenation of the strings fed to it so far. SHA-1 digests are 160 bits
instead of MD5's 128 bits.
.. function:: new([string])
Return a new sha object. If *string* is present, the method call
``update(string)`` is made.
The following values are provided as constants in the module and as attributes
of the sha objects returned by :func:`new`:
.. data:: blocksize
Size of the blocks fed into the hash function; this is always ``1``. This size
is used to allow an arbitrary string to be hashed.
.. data:: digest_size
The size of the resulting digest in bytes. This is always ``20``.
An sha object has the same methods as md5 objects:
.. method:: sha.update(arg)
Update the sha object with the string *arg*. Repeated calls are equivalent to a
single call with the concatenation of all the arguments: ``m.update(a);
m.update(b)`` is equivalent to ``m.update(a+b)``.
.. method:: sha.digest()
Return the digest of the strings passed to the :meth:`update` method so far.
This is a 20-byte string which may contain non-ASCII characters, including null
bytes.
.. method:: sha.hexdigest()
Like :meth:`digest` except the digest is returned as a string of length 40,
containing only hexadecimal digits. This may be used to exchange the value
safely in email or other non-binary environments.
.. method:: sha.copy()
Return a copy ("clone") of the sha object. This can be used to efficiently
compute the digests of strings that share a common initial substring.
