Previous to this patch, a big-int, float or imag constant was interned
(made into a qstr) and then parsed at runtime to create an object each
time it was needed. This is wasteful in RAM and not efficient. Now,
these constants are parsed straight away in the parser and turned into
objects. This allows constants with large numbers of digits (so
addresses issue #1103) and takes us a step closer to #722.
Bytecode also needs a pass to compute the stack size. This is because
the state size of the bytecode function is encoded as a variable uint,
so we must know the value of this uint before we encode it (otherwise
the size of the generated code changes from one pass to the next).
Having an entire pass for this seems wasteful (in time). Alternative is
to allocate fixed space for the state size (would need 3-4 bytes to be
general, when 1 byte is usually sufficient) which uses a bit of extra
RAM per bytecode function, and makes the code less elegant in places
where this uint is encoded/decoded.
So, for now, opt for an extra pass.
Previously to this patch all constant string/bytes objects were
interned by the compiler, and this lead to crashes when the qstr was too
long (noticeable now that qstr length storage defaults to 1 byte).
With this patch, long string/bytes objects are never interned, and are
referenced directly as constant objects within generated code using
load_const_obj.
This fixes conversion when float type has more mantissa bits than small int,
and float value has small exponent. This is for example the case of 32-bit
platform using doubles, and converting value of time.time(). Conversion of
floats with larg exponnet is still not handled correctly.
This script is rewrite of run-tests-exp.sh, and tries to achieve self-hosted
testsuite running in environments where neither CPython nor unix shell is
available. As run-tests-exp.sh, it requires complete set of .exp files
pre-generated with ./run-test --write-exp.
Just adjust line-endings of micropython.exe output, the rest should be
handled by Wine (automagically on properly configured distro).
To run:
MICROPY_MICROPYTHON=../windows/micropython.exe ./run-tests
acoshf, asinhf, atanhf were added from musl. mathsincos.c was
split up into its original, separate files (from newlibe-nano-2).
tan was added.
All of the important missing float functions are now implemented,
and pyboard now passes tests/float/math_fun.py (finally!).
You can now assign to the range end variable and the for-loop still
works correctly. This fully addresses issue #565.
Also fixed a bug with the stack not being fully popped when breaking out
of an optimised for-loop (and it's actually impossible to write a test
for this case!).
Issue was with uPy: on local machine with micropython-lib installed, io
module is available. Not the case on Travis CI, where only _io module
is available in uPy.
This patch adds a configuration option (MICROPY_CAN_OVERRIDE_BUILTINS)
which, when enabled, allows to override all names within the builtins
module. A builtins override dict is created the first time the user
assigns to a name in the builtins model, and then that dict is searched
first on subsequent lookups. Note that this implementation doesn't
allow deleting of names.
This patch also does some refactoring of builtins code, creating the
modbuiltins.c file.
Addresses issue #959.
mp_obj_int_get_truncated is used as a "fast path" int accessor that
doesn't check for overflow and returns the int truncated to the machine
word size, ie mp_int_t.
Use mp_obj_int_get_truncated to fix struct.pack when packing maximum word
sized values.
Addresses issues #779 and #998.
Behaviour of array initialisation is subtly different for bytes,
bytearray and array.array when argument has buffer protocol. This patch
gets us CPython conformant (except we allow initialisation of
array.array by buffer with length not a multiple of typecode).
Eg b"123" + bytearray(2) now works. This patch actually decreases code
size while adding functionality: 32-bit unix down by 128 bytes, stmhal
down by 84 bytes.
gc.enable/disable are now the same as CPython: they just control whether
automatic garbage collection is enabled or not. If disabled, you can
still allocate heap memory, and initiate a manual collection.
Before, sizeof() could be applied to a structure field only if that field
was itself a structure. Now it can be applied to PTR and ARRAY fields too.
It's not possible to apply it to scalar fields though, because as soon as
scalar field (int or float) is dereferenced, its value is converted into
Python int/float value, and all original type info is lost. Moreover, we
allow sizeof of type definitions too, and there int is used to represent
(scalar) types. So, we have ambiguity what int may be - either dereferenced
scalar structure field, or encoded scalar type. So, rather throw an error
if user tries to apply sizeof() to int.
UART object now uses a stream-like interface: read, readall, readline,
readinto, readchar, write, writechar.
Timeouts are configured when the UART object is initialised, using
timeout and timeout_char keyword args.
The object includes optional read buffering, using interrupts. You can set
the buffer size dynamically using read_buf_len keyword arg. A size of 0
disables buffering.
mode argument is used to assert it works
encoding argument is used to make sure CPython uses the correct encoding
as it does not automatically use utf-8
Also, usocket.readinto(). Known issue is that .readinto() should be available
only for binary files, but micropython uses single method table for both
binary and text files.
If micropython.native decorator doesn't compile, then we skill all
native/viper tests.
This patch also re-enables the ujson_loads test on NT.
Addresses issue #861, and partially addresses issue #856.
In CPython IOError (and EnvironmentError) is deprecated and aliased to
OSError. All modules that used to raise IOError now raise OSError (or a
derived exception).
In Micro Python we never used IOError (except 1 place, incorrectly) and
so don't need to keep it.
See http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3151/ for background.
Viper can now do the following:
def store(p:ptr8, c:int):
p[0] = c
This does a store of c to the memory pointed to by p using a machine
instructions inline in the code.
For the sake of older versions of gcc (and other compilers), don't use
the #warning CPP directive, nor the -Wno-error=cpp option.
Also, fix a strict alias warning in modffi.c for older compilers, and
add a test for ffi module.
Addresses issue #847.
Previously, mpz was restricted to using at most 15 bits in each digit,
where a digit was a uint16_t.
With this patch, mpz can use all 16 bits in the uint16_t (improvement
to mpn_div was required). This gives small inprovements in speed and
RAM usage. It also yields savings in ROM code size because all of the
digit masking operations become no-ops.
Also, mpz can now use a uint32_t as the digit type, and hence use 32
bits per digit. This will give decent improvements in mpz speed on
64-bit machines.
Test for big integer division added.
Because (for Thumb) a function pointer has the LSB set, pointers to
dynamic functions in RAM (eg native, viper or asm functions) were not
being traced by the GC. This patch is a comprehensive fix for this.
Addresses issue #820.
