Grammar rules have 2 variants: ones that are attached to a specific
compile function which is called to compile that grammar node, and ones
that don't have a compile function and are instead just inspected to see
what form they take.
In the compiler there is a table of all grammar rules, with each entry
having a pointer to the associated compile function. Those rules with no
compile function have a null pointer. There are 120 such rules, so that's
120 words of essentially wasted code space.
By grouping together the compile vs no-compile rules we can put all the
no-compile rules at the end of the list of rules, and then we don't need
to store the null pointers. We just have a truncated table and it's
guaranteed that when indexing this table we only index the first half,
the half with populated pointers.
This patch implements such a grouping by having a specific macro for the
compile vs no-compile grammar rules (DEF_RULE vs DEF_RULE_NC). It saves
around 460 bytes of code on 32-bit archs.
Allows to iterate over the following without allocating on the heap:
- tuple
- list
- string, bytes
- bytearray, array
- dict (not dict.keys, dict.values, dict.items)
- set, frozenset
Allows to call the following without heap memory:
- all, any, min, max, sum
TODO: still need to allocate stack memory in bytecode for iter_buf.
This improves efficiency of GIL release within the VM, by only doing the
release after a fixed number of jump-opcodes have executed in the current
thread.
It's more efficient using the system mutexs instead of synthetic ones with
a busy-wait loop. The system can do proper scheduling and blocking of the
threads waiting on the mutex.
Previous to this patch, for large chunks of bytecode that originated from
a single source-code line, the bytecode-line mapping would generate
something like (for 42 bytecode bytes and 1 line):
BC_SKIP=31 LINE_SKIP=1
BC_SKIP=11 LINE_SKIP=0
This would mean that any errors in the last 11 bytecode bytes would be
reported on the following line. This patch fixes it to generate instead:
BC_SKIP=31 LINE_SKIP=0
BC_SKIP=11 LINE_SKIP=1
This patch implements support for class methods __delattr__ and __setattr__
for customising attribute access. It is controlled by the config option
MICROPY_PY_DELATTR_SETATTR and is disabled by default.
It seems that the gcc toolchain on the RaspberryPi
likes %progbits instead of @progbits. I verified that
%progbits also works under x86, so this should
fix#2848 and fix#2842
I verified that unix and mpy-cross both compile
on my RaspberryPi and on my x64 machine.
The internal map/set functions now use size_t exclusively for computing
addresses. size_t is enough to reach all of available memory when
computing addresses so is the right type to use. In particular, for
nanbox builds it saves quite a bit of code size and RAM compared to the
original use of mp_uint_t (which is 64-bits on nanbox builds).
For archs that have 16-bit pointers, the asmxtensa.h file can give compiler
warnings about left-shift being greater than the width of the type (due to
the inline functions in this header file). Explicitly casting the
constants to uint32_t stops these warnings.
This patch fixes two main things:
- dicts can be printed directly using '%s' % dict
- %-formatting should not crash when passed a non-dict to, eg, '%(foo)s'
Updated modbuiltin.c to add conditional support for 3-arg calls to
pow() using MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_POW3 config parameter. Added support in
objint_mpz.c for for optimised implementation.
A signal is like a pin, but ca also be inverted (active low). As such, it
abstracts properties of various physical devices, like LEDs, buttons,
relays, buzzers, etc. To instantiate a Signal:
pin = machine.Pin(...)
signal = machine.Signal(pin, inverted=True)
signal has the same .value() and __call__() methods as a pin.
This provides mp_vfs_XXX functions (eg mount, open, listdir) which are
agnostic to the underlying filesystem type, and just require an object with
the relevant filesystem-like methods (eg .mount, .open, .listidr) which can
then be mounted.
These mp_vfs_XXX functions would typically be used by a port to implement
the "uos" module, and mp_vfs_open would be the builtin open function.
This feature is controlled by MICROPY_VFS, disabled by default.
In this, don't allocate copy, just return non-empty string. This helps
with a standard pattern of buffering data in case of short reads:
buf = b""
while ...:
s = f.read(...)
buf += s
...
For a typical case when single read returns all data needed, there won't
be extra allocation. This optimization helps uasyncio.
They are one-line functions and having them inline in mp_init/mp_deinit
eliminates the overhead of a function call, and matches how other state
is initialised in mp_init.
This is how CPython does it, and it's very useful to help users discover
the available modules for a given port, especially built-in and frozen
modules. The function does not list modules that are in the filesystem
because this would require a fair bit of work to do correctly, and is very
port specific (depending on the filesystem).
If result guaranteedly fits in a small int, it is handled in objint.c.
Otherwise, it is delegated to mp_obj_int_from_bytes_impl(), which should
be implemented by individual objint_*.c, similar to
mp_obj_int_to_bytes_impl().
If GeneratorExit is injected as a throw-value then that should lead to
the close() method being called, if it exists. If close() does not exist
then throw() should not be called, and this patch fixes this.
The commit d9047d3c8a introduced a bug
whereby "from a.b import c" stopped working for frozen packages. This is
because the path was not properly truncated and became "a//b". Such a
path resolves correctly for a "real" filesystem, but not for a search in
the list of frozen modules.
UART REPL support was lost in os.dupterm() refactorings, etc. As
os.dupterm() is there, implement UART REPL support at the high level -
if MICROPY_STDIO_UART is set, make default boot.py contain os.dupterm()
call for a UART. This means that changing MICROPY_STDIO_UART value will
also require erasing flash on a module to force boot.py re-creation.
This check always fails (ie chr0 is never EOF) because the callers of this
function never call it past the end of the input stream. And even if they
did it would be harmless because 1) reader.readbyte must continue to
return an EOF char if the stream is exhausted; 2) next_char would just
count the subsequent EOF's as characters worth 1 column.
import utimeq, utime
# Max queue size, the queue allocated statically on creation
q = utimeq.utimeq(10)
q.push(utime.ticks_ms(), data1, data2)
res = [0, 0, 0]
# Items in res are filled up with results
q.pop(res)
Defining and initialising mp_kbd_exception is boiler-plate code and so the
core runtime can provide it, instead of each port needing to do it
themselves.
The exception object is placed in the VM state rather than on the heap.
sys.exit() is an important function to terminate a program. In particular,
the testsuite relies on it to skip tests (i.e. any other functionality may
be disabled, but sys.exit() is required to at least report that properly).
For all but the last pass the assembler only needs to count how much space
is needed for the machine code, it doesn't actually need to emit anything.
The dummy_data just uses unnecessary RAM and without it the code is not
any more complex (and code size does not increase for Thumb and Xtensa
archs).
This patch moves some common code from the individual inline assemblers to
the compiler, the code that calls the emit-glue to assign the machine code
to the functions scope.
This patch adds the MICROPY_EMIT_INLINE_XTENSA option, which, when
enabled, allows the @micropython.asm_xtensa decorator to be used.
The following opcodes are currently supported (ax is a register, a0-a15):
ret_n()
callx0(ax)
j(label)
jx(ax)
beqz(ax, label)
bnez(ax, label)
mov(ax, ay)
movi(ax, imm) # imm can be full 32-bit, uses l32r if needed
and_(ax, ay, az)
or_(ax, ay, az)
xor(ax, ay, az)
add(ax, ay, az)
sub(ax, ay, az)
mull(ax, ay, az)
l8ui(ax, ay, imm)
l16ui(ax, ay, imm)
l32i(ax, ay, imm)
s8i(ax, ay, imm)
s16i(ax, ay, imm)
s32i(ax, ay, imm)
l16si(ax, ay, imm)
addi(ax, ay, imm)
ball(ax, ay, label)
bany(ax, ay, label)
bbc(ax, ay, label)
bbs(ax, ay, label)
beq(ax, ay, label)
bge(ax, ay, label)
bgeu(ax, ay, label)
blt(ax, ay, label)
bnall(ax, ay, label)
bne(ax, ay, label)
bnone(ax, ay, label)
Upon entry to the assembly function the registers a0, a12, a13, a14 are
pushed to the stack and the stack pointer (a1) decreased by 16. Upon
exit, these registers and the stack pointer are restored, and ret.n is
executed to return to the caller (caller address is in a0).
Note that the ABI for the Xtensa emitters is non-windowing.
If a port defines MP_PLAT_COMMIT_EXEC then this function is used to turn
RAM data into executable code. For example a port may want to write the
data to flash for execution. The function must return a pointer to the
executable data.
The constants MP_IOCTL_POLL_xxx, which were stmhal-specific, are moved
from stmhal/pybioctl.h (now deleted) to py/stream.h. And they are renamed
to MP_STREAM_POLL_xxx to be consistent with other such constants.
All uses of these constants have been updated.
If a port defines MICROPY_READER_POSIX or MICROPY_READER_FATFS then
lexer.c now provides an implementation of mp_lexer_new_from_file using
the mp_reader_new_file function.
Implementations of persistent-code reader are provided for POSIX systems
and systems using FatFS. Macros to use these are MICROPY_READER_POSIX and
MICROPY_READER_FATFS respectively. If an alternative implementation is
needed then a port can define the function mp_reader_new_file.
It is split into 2 functions, one to make small ints and the other to make
a non-small-int leaf node. This reduces code size by 32 bytes on
bare-arm, 64 bytes on unix (x64-64) and 144 bytes on stmhal.
This includes StopIteration and thus are important to make Python-coded
iterables work with yield from/await.
Exceptions in Python send() are still not handled and left for future
consideration and optimization.
We allow 'exc.__traceback__ = None' assignment as a low-level optimization
of pre-allocating exception instance and raising it repeatedly - this
avoids memory allocation during raise. However, uPy will keep adding
traceback entries to such exception instance, so before throwing it,
traceback should be cleared like above.
'exc.__traceback__ = None' syntax is CPython compatible. However, unlike
it, reading that attribute or setting it to any other value is not
supported (and not intended to be supported, again, the only reason for
adding this feature is to allow zero-memalloc exception raising).
Its addition was due to an early exploration on how to add CPython-like
stream interface. It's clear that it's not needed and just takes up
bytes in all ports.
With this patch one can now do "make FROZEN_MPY_DIR=../../frozen" to
specify a directory containing scripts to be frozen (as well as absolute
paths).
The compiled .mpy files are now stored in $(BUILD)/frozen_mpy/.
Now, to use frozen bytecode all a port needs to do is define
FROZEN_MPY_DIR to the directory containing the .py files to freeze, and
define MICROPY_MODULE_FROZEN_MPY and MICROPY_QSTR_EXTRA_POOL.
In both parse.c and qstr.c, an internal chunking allocator tidies up
by calling m_renew to shrink an allocated chunk to the size used, and
assumes that the chunk will not move. However, when MICROPY_ENABLE_GC
is false, m_renew calls the system realloc, which does not guarantee
this behaviour. Environments where realloc may return a different
pointer include:
(1) mbed-os with MBED_HEAP_STATS_ENABLED (which adds a wrapper around
malloc & friends; this is where I was hit by the bug);
(2) valgrind on linux (how I diagnosed it).
The fix is to call m_renew_maybe with allow_move=false.
