conflicting implementation in crate `embedded_hal`

Hello,

I updated nightly and got this error trying to compile some code:

rustc 1.46.0-nightly (2753fab7c 2020-07-05)

417:"checksum embedded-hal 0.2.4 (registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index)" = "fa998ce59ec9765d15216393af37a58961ddcefb14c753b4816ba2191d865fcb"

    = note: this error originates in a macro (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)

Is this regression in compiler/embedded-hal or is it expected change and implementors (alt-stm32f30x-hal in this case) should fix their libraries?

Thanks!

uhoh, that shouldn't happen. the related line is here. we provide a polyfill from v1 to v2 types for forward compatibility (though this is all going away, and changing, in the upcoming v1.0.0 release #177)

it looks like your hal is trying to implement both the original and v2 traits where only one should be implemented? (also as an aside i believe all the stm32fNNx device crates have been deprecated in favour of stm32fNxx family crates, whether or not this impacts your fork).

do be aware that we're preparing for a big-ol breaking change to resolve some, inconsistencies, in embedded-hal, so depending on your stability requirements you may wish to fix the duplicate hal definitions or to update to the alpha release, which does introduce some changes

@ryankurte Thanks, indeed this was the problem. Wonder why this worked before and what was changed in Rust.

As for stm32fNNx vs stm32fNxx, alt-stm32f30x-hal depends on stm32f3 so users are free to choose device using cargo features.

We fixed a couple of things on the polyfils in 0.2.4, (#220) which is probably what brought this to light.

This is fixed in 1.0, thanks to it not having any "compat" stuff.
