It's really an opcode that's not implemented, so use "opcode" instead of
"byte code". And remove the redundant "not implemented" text because that
is already implied by the exception type. There's no need to have a long
error message for an exception that is almost never encountered. Saves
about 20 bytes of code size on most ports.
Enabled via MICROPY_PY_URE_DEBUG, disabled by default (but enabled on unix
coverage build). This is a rarely used feature that costs a lot of code
(500-800 bytes flash). Debugging of regular expressions can be done
offline with other tools.
Recent versions of gcc perform optimisations which can lead to the
following code from the MP_NLR_JUMP_HEAD macro being omitted:
top->ret_val = val; \
MP_NLR_RESTORE_PYSTACK(top); \
*_top_ptr = top->prev; \
This is noticeable (at least) in the unix coverage on x86-64 built with gcc
9.1.0. This is because the nlr_jump function is marked as no-return, so
gcc deduces that the above code has no effect.
Adding MP_UNREACHABLE tells the compiler that the asm code may branch
elsewhere, and so it cannot optimise away the code.
As per PEP 485, this function appeared in for Python 3.5. Configured via
MICROPY_PY_MATH_ISCLOSE which is disabled by default, but enabled for the
ports which already have MICROPY_PY_MATH_SPECIAL_FUNCTIONS enabled.
Prior to this patch the amount of free space in an array (including
bytearray) was not being maintained correctly for the case of slice
assignment which changed the size of the array. Under certain cases (as
encoded in the new test) it was possible that the array could grow beyond
its allocated memory block and corrupt the heap.
Fixes issue #4127.
This patch implements a new sys.atexit function which registers a function
that is later executed when the main script ends. It is configurable via
MICROPY_PY_SYS_ATEXIT, disabled by default.
This is not compliant with CPython, rather it can be used to implement a
CPython compatible "atexit" module if desired (similar to how
sys.print_exception can be used to implement functionality of the
"traceback" module).
This patch adds a simple but powerful hook into the import system, in a
CPython compatible way, by allowing to override builtins.__import__.
This does introduce some overhead to all imports but it's minor:
- the dict lookup of __import__ is bypassed if there are no modifications
to the builtins module (which is the case at start up);
- imports are not performance critical, usually done just at the start of a
script;
- compared to how much work is done in an import, looking up a value in a
dict is a relatively small additional piece of work.
JSON requires that keys of objects be strings. CPython will therefore
automatically quote simple types (NoneType, bool, int, float) when they are
used directly as keys in JSON output. To prevent subtle bugs and emit
compliant JSON, MicroPython should at least test for such keys so they
aren't silently let through. Then doing the actual quoting is a similar
cost to raising an exception, so that's what is implemented by this patch.
Fixes issue #4790.
Behaviour was changed from stack to queue in
8977c7eb58, and this updates variable names
to match. Also updates other references (docs, error messages).
__clear_cache causes a compile error when using clang. Instead use
__builtin___clear_cache which is available under both gcc and clang.
Also replace tabs with spaces in this section of code (introduced by a
previous commit).
This fixes compiling for older architectures (e.g. armv5tej).
According to [1], the limit of R0-R7 for the STR and LDR instructions is
tied to the Thumb instruction set and not any specific processor
architectures.

With both MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_SAVE and MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_LOAD
enabled the code fails to compile, due to undeclared 'n_obj'. If
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE is disabled there are more errors due to the use of
undefined fields in mp_raw_code_t.
This patch fixes such compilation by avoiding undefined fields.
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE was changed to MICROPY_EMIT_MACHINE_CODE in this file
to match the mp_raw_code_t definition.
These s16-s21 registers are used by gcc so need to be saved. Future
versions of gcc (beyond v9.1.0), or other compilers, may eventually need
additional registers saved/restored.
See issue #4844.
Instead of converting to a small-int at runtime this can be done at compile
time, then we only have a simple comparison during runtime. This reduces
code size on some ports (e.g -4 on qemu-arm, -52 on unix nanbox), and for
others at least doesn't increase code size.
mpy-cross uses MICROPY_DYNAMIC_COMPILER and MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE but does
not actually need to execute native functions, and does not need
mp_fun_table. This commit makes it so mp_fun_table and all its entries are
not built when MICROPY_DYNAMIC_COMPILER is enabled, significantly reducing
the size of the mpy-cross executable and allowing it to be built on more
machines/OS's.
This ; make Windows compilation fail with GNU makefile 4.2.1. It was added
in 0dc85c9f86 as part of a shell if-
statement, but this if-statement was subsequently removed in
23a693ec2d so the semicolon is not needed.
The variable $(TOUCH) is initialized with the "touch" value in mkenv.mk
like for the other command line tools (rm, echo, cp, mkdir etc). With
this, for example, Windows users can specify the path of touch.exe.
The variable $(CAT) is initialised with the "cat" value in mkenv.mk like
for the other command line tools (rm, echo, cp, mkdir etc). With this,
for example, Windows users can specify the path of cat.exe.
Reuse the implementation for bytes since it works the same way regardless
of the underlying type. This method gets added for CPython compatibility
of bytearray, but to keep the code simple and small array.array now also
has a working decode method, which is non-standard but doesn't hurt.
This allows figuring out the number of bytes in the memoryview object as
len(memview) * memview.itemsize.
The feature is enabled via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_MEMORYVIEW_ITEMSIZE and is
disabled by default.
Prior to this commit, building the unix port with `DEBUG=1` and
`-finstrument-functions` the compilation would fail with an error like
"control reaches end of non-void function". This change fixes this by
removing the problematic "if (0)" branches. Not all branches affect
compilation, but they are all removed for consistency.
With this change, @micropython.asm_thumb functions will work on standard
ARM processors (that are in ARM state by default), in scripts and
precompiled .mpy files.
Addresses issue #4675.
This system makes it a lot easier to include external libraries as static,
native modules in MicroPython. Simply pass USER_C_MODULES (like
FROZEN_MPY_DIR) as a make parameter.
During make, makemoduledefs.py parses the current builds c files for
MP_REGISTER_MODULE(module_name, obj_module, enabled_define)
These are used to generate a header with the required entries for
"mp_rom_map_elem_t mp_builtin_module_table[]" in py/objmodule.c
This commit adds support for saving and loading .mpy files that contain
native code (native, viper and inline-asm). A lot of the ground work was
already done for this in the form of removing pointers from generated
native code. The changes here are mainly to link in qstr values to the
native code, and change the format of .mpy files to contain native code
blocks (possibly mixed with bytecode).
A top-level summary:
- @micropython.native, @micropython.viper and @micropython.asm_thumb/
asm_xtensa are now allowed in .py files when compiling to .mpy, and they
work transparently to the user.
- Entire .py files can be compiled to native via mpy-cross -X emit=native
and for the most part the generated .mpy files should work the same as
their bytecode version.
- The .mpy file format is changed to 1) specify in the header if the file
contains native code and if so the architecture (eg x86, ARMV7M, Xtensa);
2) for each function block the kind of code is specified (bytecode,
native, viper, asm).
- When native code is loaded from a .mpy file the native code must be
modified (in place) to link qstr values in, just like bytecode (see
py/persistentcode.c:arch_link_qstr() function).
In addition, this now defines a public, native ABI for dynamically loadable
native code generated by other languages, like C.
The new compile-time option is MICROPY_DEBUG_MP_OBJ_SENTINELS, disabled by
default. This is to allow finer control of whether this debugging feature
is enabled or not (because, for example, this setting must be the same for
mpy-cross and the MicroPython main code when using native code generation).
When encoded in the mpy file, if qstr <= QSTR_LAST_STATIC then store two
bytes: 0, static_qstr_id. Otherwise encode the qstr as usual (either with
string data or a reference into the qstr window).
Reduces mpy file size by about 5%.
Instead of emitting two bytes in the bytecode for where the linked qstr
should be written to, it is now replaced by the actual qstr data, or a
reference into the qstr window.
Reduces mpy file size by about 10%.
This is an implementation of a sliding qstr window used to reduce the
number of qstrs stored in a .mpy file. The window size is configured to 32
entries which takes a fixed 64 bytes (16-bits each) on the C stack when
loading/saving a .mpy file. It allows to remember the most recent 32 qstrs
so they don't need to be stored again in the .mpy file. The qstr window
uses a simple least-recently-used mechanism to discard the least recently
used qstr when the window overflows (similar to dictionary compression).
This scheme only needs a single pass to save/load the .mpy file.
Reduces mpy file size by about 25% with a window size of 32.
POP_BLOCK and POP_EXCEPT are now the same, and are always followed by a
JUMP. So this optimisation reduces code size, and RAM usage of bytecode by
two bytes for each try-except handler.
This patch fixes a bug in the VM when breaking within a try-finally. The
bug has to do with executing a break within the finally block of a
try-finally statement. For example:
def f():
for x in (1,):
print('a', x)
try:
raise Exception
finally:
print(1)
break
print('b', x)
f()
Currently in uPy the above code will print:
a 1
1
1
segmentation fault (core dumped) micropython
Not only is there a seg fault, but the "1" in the finally block is printed
twice. This is because when the VM executes a finally block it doesn't
really know if that block was executed due to a fall-through of the try (no
exception raised), or because an exception is active. In particular, for
nested finallys the VM has no idea which of the nested ones have active
exceptions and which are just fall-throughs. So when a break (or continue)
is executed it tries to unwind all of the finallys, when in fact only some
may be active.
It's questionable whether break (or return or continue) should be allowed
within a finally block, because they implicitly swallow any active
exception, but nevertheless it's allowed by CPython (although almost never
used in the standard library). And uPy should at least not crash in such a
case.
The solution here relies on the fact that exception and finally handlers
always appear in the bytecode after the try body.
Note: there was a similar bug with a return in a finally block, but that
was previously fixed in b735208403
Also, to make it possible for ports to provide their own lwipopts.h, the
default include directory of extmod/lwip-include is no longer added and
instead a port should now make sure the correct include directory is
included in the list (can still use extmod/lwip-include).
This optimisation eliminates the need to create a temporary normal dict.
The optimisation is enabled via MICROPY_COMP_CONST_LITERAL which is enabled
by default (although only has an effect if OrderdDict is enabled).
Thanks to @pfalcon for the initial idea and implementation.
All exceptions that unwind through the async-with must be caught and
BaseException is the top-level class, which includes Exception and others.
Fixes issue #4552.
As mentioned in #4450, `websocket` was experimental with a single intended
user, `webrepl`. Therefore, we'll make this change without a weak
link `websocket` -> `uwebsocket`.
This change makes it so that python3 is required by default to build
MicroPython. Python 2 can be used by specifying make PYTHON=python2.
This comes about due to a recent-ish change to PEP 394 that makes the
python command more optional than before (even with Python 2 installed);
see cd59ec03c8 (diff-1d22f7bd72cbc900670f058b1107d426)
Since the command python is no longer required to be provided by a
distribution we need to use either python2 or python3 as commands. And
python3 seems the obvious choice.
These macros could in principle be (inline) functions so it makes sense to
have them lower case, to match the other C API functions.
The remaining macros that are upper case are:
- MP_OBJ_TO_PTR, MP_OBJ_FROM_PTR
- MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT, MP_OBJ_SMALL_INT_VALUE
- MP_OBJ_NEW_QSTR, MP_OBJ_QSTR_VALUE
- MP_OBJ_FUN_MAKE_SIG
- MP_DECLARE_CONST_xxx
- MP_DEFINE_CONST_xxx
These must remain macros because they are used when defining const data (at
least, MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT is so it makes sense to have
MP_OBJ_SMALL_INT_VALUE also a macro).
For those macros that have been made lower case, compatibility macros are
provided for the old names so that users do not need to change their code
immediately.
Python defines warnings as belonging to categories, where category is a
warning type (descending from exception type). This is useful, as e.g.
allows to disable warnings selectively and provide user-defined warning
types. So, implement this in MicroPython, except that categories are
represented just with strings. However, enough hooks are left to implement
categories differently per-port (e.g. as types), without need to patch each
and every usage.
If MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_LOAD or MICROPY_ENABLE_COMPILER are enabled then
code gets enabled that calls file reading functions which may be disabled
if no readers have been implemented.
To fix this, introduce a MICROPY_HAS_FILE_READER variable, which is
automatically set if MICROPY_READER_POSIX or MICROPY_READER_VFS is set but
can also be manually set if a custom reader is being implemented. Then
disable the file reading calls if this is not set.
For architectures where size_t is less than 32 bits (eg 16 bits) the args
must be casted to uint32_t so the left shift will work. For architectures
where size_t is greater than 32 bits (eg 64 bits) this new casting will not
lose any bits because the end result must anyway fit in a uint32_t.
Changes to the layout of the bytecode header meant that this debug code was
no longer compiling. This is now fixed and a new compile-time option is
introduced, MICROPY_DEBUG_VM_STACK_OVERFLOW, to turn on this feature (which
is disabled by default). This option is needed because more than one file
needs to cooperate to make this check work.
It's more robust to have the version defined statically in a header file,
rather than dynamically generating it via git using a git tag. In case
git doesn't exist, or a different source control tool is used, it's
important to still have the uPy version number available.
The older "bool has_finaliser" gets recast as GC_ALLOC_FLAG_HAS_FINALISER=1
so this is a backwards compatible change to the signature. Since bool gets
implicitly converted to 1 this patch doesn't include conversion of all
calls.
Both mp_type_array and mp_type_memoryview use the same object structure,
mp_obj_array_t, but for the case of memoryview, some fields, e.g. "free",
have different meaning. As the "free" field is also a bitfield, assume
that (anonymous) union can't be used here (for the concerns of possible
compatibility issues with wide array of toolchains), and just add a field
alias using a #define. As it's a define, it should be a selective
identifier, so use verbose "memview_offset" to avoid any clashes.
All 4 opcodes that can have caching bytes also have qstrs, so the test for
them must go in the qstr part of the code. The reason this incorrect
calculation of the opcode size did not lead to a bug is because the caching
byte is at the end of the opcode (byte, qstr, qstr, cache) and is always
0x00 when saving/loading, so was just treated as a single byte no-op
opcode. Hence these opcodes were being saved/loaded/decoded correctly.
Thanks to @malinah for finding the problem and providing the initial patch.
mp_obj_new_exception_msg() assumes that the message passed to it is in ROM
and so can use its data directly to create the string object for the
argument of the exception, saving RAM. At the same time, this approach
also makes sure that there is no attempt to format the message with printf,
which could lead to faults if the message contained % characters.
Fixes issue #3004.
SHORT, INT, LONG, LONGLONG, and unsigned (U*) variants are being defined.
This is done at compile using GCC-style predefined macros like
__SIZEOF_INT__. If the compiler doesn't have such defines, no such types
will be defined.
Instead of assuming that the method is a bytecode object, and only
supporting load of __name__, make the operation generic by delegating the
load to the method object itself. Saves a bit of code size and fixes the
case of attempting to load __name__ on a native method, see issue #4028.
A new option MICROPY_GC_STACK_ENTRY_TYPE is added to select a custom type
instead of size_t for the gc_stack array items. This can be beneficial for
small devices, especially those that are low on memory anyway. If a device
has 1MB or less of heap (and 16-byte GC blocks) then this type can be
uint16_t, saving 128 bytes of RAM.
There was an assumption that all names in a module dict are qstr's.
However, they can be dynamically generated (by assigning to globals()),
and in case of a long name, it won't be a qstr. Handle this situation
properly, including taking care of not creating superfluous qstr's for
names starting with "_" (which aren't imported by "import *").
Taking the address of a local variable is mildly expensive, in code size
and stack usage. So optimise scope_find_or_add_id() to not need to take a
pointer to the "added" variable, and instead take the kind to use for newly
added identifiers.
This ensures that implicit variables are only converted to implicit
closed-over variables (nonlocals) at the very end of the function scope.
If variables are closed-over when first used (read from, as was done prior
to this commit) then this can be incorrect because the variable may be
assigned to later on in the function which means they are just a plain
local, not closed over.
Fixes issue #4272.
Building axtls gives a lot of warnings with -Wall enabled, and explicitly
disabling all of them cannot be done in a way compatible with gcc and
clang, and likely other compilers. So just use -Wno-all to prevent all of
the extra warnings (in addition to the necessary -Wno-unused-parameter,
-Wno-uninitialized, -Wno-sign-compare and -Wno-old-style-definition).
Fixes issue #4182.
Configurable via MICROPY_MODULE_GETATTR, disabled by default. Among other
things __getattr__ for modules can help to build lazy loading / code
unloading at runtime.
Configurable via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_STR_COUNT. Default is enabled.
Disabled for bare-arm, minimal, unix-minimal and zephyr ports. Disabling
it saves 408 bytes on x86.
So these constant objects can be loaded by dereferencing the REG_FUN_TABLE
pointer instead of loading immediate values. This reduces the size of
generated native code (when such constants are used), and means that
pointers to these constants are no longer stored in the assembly code.
The maximum index into mp_fun_table is currently less than 1024 and should
stay that way to keep things efficient for all architectures, so there is
no need to handle loading the pointer directly via a literal in this
function.
All architectures now have a dedicated register to hold the pointer to the
native function table mp_fun_table, and so they all need to load this
register at the start of the native function. This commit makes the
loading of this register uniform across architectures by passing the
pointer in the constant table for the native function, and then loading the
register from the constant table. Doing it this way means that the pointer
is not stored in the assembly code, helping to make the code more portable.
Instead of storing the function pointer directly in the assembly code.
This makes the generated code more independent of the runtime (so easier to
relocate the code), and reduces the generated code size.
The esp register is always a fixed distance below ebp, and using esp to
reference locals on the stack frees up the ebp register for general purpose
use (which is important for an architecture with only 8 user registers).
Instead of storing the function pointer directly in the assembly code.
This makes the generated code more independent of the runtime (so easier to
relocate the code), and reduces the generated code size.
The rsp register is always a fixed distance below rbp, and using rsp to
reference locals on the stack frees up the rbp register for general purpose
use.
This commit adds first class support for yield and yield-from in the native
emitter, including send and throw support, and yields enclosed in exception
handlers (which requires pulling down the NLR stack before yielding, then
rebuilding it when resuming).
This has been fully tested and is working on unix x86 and x86-64, and
stm32. Also basic tests have been done with the esp8266 port. Performance
of existing native code is unchanged.
