This is intended to be used by the very outer caller of the VM/runtime. It
allows setting a top-level NLR handler that can be jumped to directly, in
order to forcefully abort the VM/runtime.
Enable using:
#define MICROPY_ENABLE_VM_ABORT (1)
Set up the handler at the top level using:
nlr_buf_t nlr;
nlr.ret_val = NULL;
if (nlr_push(&nlr) == 0) {
nlr_set_abort(&nlr);
// call into the VM/runtime
...
nlr_pop();
} else {
if (nlr.ret_val == NULL) {
// handle abort
...
} else {
// handle other exception that propagated to the top level
...
}
}
nlr_set_abort(NULL);
Schedule an abort, eg from an interrupt handler, using:
mp_sched_vm_abort();

* Enable dcache for OCRAM where the VM heap lives.
* Add CIRCUITPY_SWO_TRACE for pushing program counters out over the
SWO pin via the ITM module in the CPU. Exempt some functions from
instrumentation to reduce traffic and allow inlining.
* Place more functions in ITCM to handle errors using code in RAM-only
and speed up CP.
* Use SET and CLEAR registers for digitalio. The SDK does read, mask
and write.
* Switch to 2MiB reserved for CircuitPython code. Up from 1MiB.
* Run USB interrupts during flash erase and write.
* Allow storage writes from CP if the USB drive is disabled.
* Get perf bench tests running on CircuitPython and increase timeouts
so it works when instrumentation is active.
The C-level printf is usually used for internal debugging prints, and a
port/board may want to redirect this somewhere other than stdout.

When you want to use the valgrind memory analysis tool on MicroPython, you
can arrange to define MICROPY_DEBUG_VALGRIND to enable use of special
valgrind macros. For now, this only fixes `gc_get_ptr` so that it never
emits the diagnostic "Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised
value(s)".

The existings mp_obj_type_t uses a sparse representation for slots for the
capability methods of the type (eg print, make_new). This commit adds a
compact slot-index representation. The basic idea is that where the
mp_obj_type_t struct used to have 12 pointer fields, it now has 12 uint8_t
indices, and a variable-length array of pointers. So in the best case (no
fields used) it saves 12x4-12=36 bytes (on a 32-bit machine) and in the
common case (three fields used) it saves 9x4-12=24 bytes.
Overall with all associated changes, this slot-index representation reduces
code size by 1000 to 3000 bytes on bare-metal ports. Performance is
marginally better on a few tests (eg about 1% better on misc_pystone.py and
misc_raytrace.py on PYBv1.1), but overall marginally worse by a percent or
so.

Since commit e65d1e69e8 there is no longer an
io.FileIO class, so this option is no longer needed.
This option also controlled whether or not files supported being opened in
binary mode (eg 'rb'), and could, if disabled, lead to confusion as to why
opening a file in binary mode silently did the wrong thing (it would just
open in text mode if MICROPY_PY_IO_FILEIO was disabled).
The various VFS implementations (POSIX, FAT, LFS) were the only places
where enabling this option made a difference, and in almost all cases where
one of these filesystems were enabled, MICROPY_PY_IO_FILEIO was also
enabled. So it makes sense to just unconditionally enable this feature
(ability to open a file in binary mode) in all cases, and so just remove
this config option altogether. That makes configuration simpler and means
binary file support always exists (and opening a file in binary mode is
arguably more fundamental than opening in text mode, so if anything should
be configurable then it should be the ability to open in text mode).

This commit adds a new option MICROPY_GC_SPLIT_HEAP (disabled by default)
which, when enabled, allows the GC heap to be split over multiple memory
areas/regions. The first area is added with gc_init() and subsequent areas
can be added with gc_add(). New areas can be added at runtime. Areas are
stored internally as a linked list, and calls to gc_alloc() can be
satisfied from any area.
This feature has the following use-cases (among others):
- The ESP32 has a fragmented OS heap, so to use all (or more) of it the
GC heap must be split.
- Other MCUs may have disjoint RAM regions and are now able to use them
all for the GC heap.
- The user could explicitly increase the size of the GC heap.
- Support a dynamic heap while running on an OS, adding more heap when
necessary.
All in-tree uses of MICROPY_PORT_ROOT_POINTERS have been replaced with
MP_REGISTER_ROOT_POINTER(), so now we can remove both
MICROPY_PORT_ROOT_POINTERS and MICROPY_BOARD_ROOT_POINTERS from the code
and remaining config files.

This uses MP_REGISTER_ROOT_POINTER() to register the readline_history root

Some architectures (like esp32 xtensa) cannot read byte-wise from
executable memory. This means the prelude for native functions -- which is
usually located after the machine code for the native function -- must be
placed in separate memory that can be read byte-wise. Prior to this commit
this was achieved by enabling N_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ for the emitter and
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ for the runtime. The prelude was
then placed in a bytes object, pointed to by the module's constant table.
This behaviour is changed by this commit so that a pointer to the prelude
is stored either in mp_obj_fun_bc_t.child_table, or in
mp_obj_fun_bc_t.child_table[num_children] if num_children > 0. The reasons
for doing this are:
1. It decouples the native emitter from runtime requirements, the emitted
code no longer needs to know if the system it runs on can/can't read
byte-wise from executable memory.
2. It makes all ports have the same emitter behaviour, there is no longer
the N_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ option.
3. The module's constant table is now used only for actual constants in the
Python code. This allows further optimisations to be done with the
constants (eg constant deduplication).
Code size change for those ports that enable the native emitter:
unix x64: +80 +0.015%
stm32: +24 +0.004% PYBV10
esp8266: +88 +0.013% GENERIC
esp32: -20 -0.002% GENERIC[incl -112(data)]
rp2: +32 +0.005% PICO

Prior to this commit, even with unicode disabled .py and .mpy files could
contain unicode characters, eg by entering them directly in a string as
utf-8 encoded.
The only thing the compiler disallowed (with unicode disabled) was using
\uxxxx and \Uxxxxxxxx notation to specify a character within a string with
value >= 0x100; that would give a SyntaxError.
With this change mpy-cross will now accept \u and \U notation to insert a
character with value >= 0x100 into a string (because the -mno-unicode
option is now gone, there's no way to forbid this). The runtime will
happily work with strings with such characters, just like it already works
with strings with characters that were utf-8 encoded directly.
This change simplifies things because there are no longer any feature
flags in .mpy files, and any bytecode .mpy will now run on any target.

.. and enable it on atmel-samd and raspberrypi. On trinket_m0 this saves
96 net bytes of flash. There are 216 bytes actually saved by reducing
the flash storage size of the property descriptors, but added code in
several paths takes back over half of the 'raw savings'.
By organizing the "get-only" and "get-set" (but no delete) properties
each in a different section, we can represent then more efficiently.
Testing performed: that a get-only property can still be gotten but
can't be set or deleted; that a get-set property can sill be gotten or
set but can't be deleted. Tested on pygamer.
Because this requires linker file support, I only enabled it on two of
the ports.
This contains a string useful for identifying the underlying machine. This
string is kept consistent with the second part of the REPL banner via the
new config option MICROPY_BANNER_MACHINE.
This makes os.uname() more or less redundant, as all the information in
os.uname() is now available in the sys module.

This commit adds the git hash and build date to sys.version. This is
allowed according to CPython docs, and is what PyPy does. The docs state:
A string containing the version number of the Python interpreter plus
additional information on the build number and compiler used.
Eg on CPython:
Python 3.10.4 (main, Mar 23 2022, 23:05:40) [GCC 11.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.version
'3.10.4 (main, Mar 23 2022, 23:05:40) [GCC 11.2.0]'
and PyPy:
Python 2.7.12 (5.6.0+dfsg-4, Nov 20 2016, 10:43:30)
[PyPy 5.6.0 with GCC 6.2.0 20161109] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>> import sys

Note that the start of the banner is the same as the end of sys.version.
This helps to keep code size under control because the string can be reused
by the compiler.

This commit adds support to the parser so that tuples which contain only
constant elements (bool, int, str, bytes, etc) are immediately converted to
a tuple object. This makes it more efficient to use tuples containing
constant data because they no longer need to be created at runtime by the
bytecode (or native code).
Furthermore, with this improvement constant tuples that are part of frozen
code are now able to be stored fully in ROM (this will be implemented in
later commits).
Code size is increased by about 400 bytes on Cortex-M4 platforms.

If MICROPY_SCHEDULER_STATIC_NODES is enabled then C code can declare a
static mp_sched_node_t and schedule a callback using
mp_sched_schedule_node(). In contrast to using mp_sched_schedule(), the
node version will have at most one pending callback outstanding, and will
always be able to schedule if there is nothing already scheduled on this
node. This guarantees that the the callback will be called exactly once
after it is scheduled.

This commit adds generic support for mutable module attributes on built in
modules, by adding support for an optional hook function for module
attribute lookup. If a module wants to support additional attribute load/
store/delete (beyond what is in the constant, globals dict) then it should
add at the very end of its globals dict MP_MODULE_ATTR_DELEGATION_ENTRY().
This should point to a custom function which will handle any additional
attributes.
The mp_module_generic_attr() function is provided as a helper function for
additional attributes: it requires an array of qstrs (terminated in
MP_QSTRnull) and a corresponding array of objects (with a 1-1 mapping
between qstrs and objects). If the qstr is found in the array then the
corresponding object is loaded/stored/deleted.
