Before this patch the mperrno.h file could be included and would silently
succeed with incorrect config settings, because mpconfig.h was not yet
included.
If constants (eg mp_const_none_obj) are placed in very high memory
locations that require 64-bits for the pointer then the assembler must be
able to emit instructions to move such pointers to one of the top 8
registers (ie r8-r15).
It's not used anywhere else in the VM loop, and clashes with (is shadowed
by) the n_state variable that's redeclared towards the end of the
mp_execute_bytecode function. Code size is unchanged.
The code conventions suggest using header guards, but do not define how
those should look like and instead point to existing files. However, not
all existing files follow the same scheme, sometimes omitting header guards
altogether, sometimes using non-standard names, making it easy to
accidentally pick a "wrong" example.
This commit ensures that all header files of the MicroPython project (that
were not simply copied from somewhere else) follow the same pattern, that
was already present in the majority of files, especially in the py folder.
The rules are as follows.
Naming convention:
* start with the words MICROPY_INCLUDED
* contain the full path to the file
* replace special characters with _
In addition, there are no empty lines before #ifndef, between #ifndef and
one empty line before #endif. #endif is followed by a comment containing
the name of the guard macro.
py/grammar.h cannot use header guards by design, since it has to be
included multiple times in a single C file. Several other files also do not
need header guards as they are only used internally and guaranteed to be
included only once:
* MICROPY_MPHALPORT_H
* mpconfigboard.h
* mpconfigport.h
* mpthreadport.h
* pin_defs_*.h
* qstrdefs*.h
Prior to this patch there were 2 paths for creating the namedtuple, one for
when no keyword args were passed, and one when there were keyword args.
And alloca was used in the keyword-arg path to temporarily create the array
of elements for the namedtuple, which would then be copied to a
heap-allocated object (the namedtuple itself).
This patch simplifies the code by combining the no-keyword and keyword
paths, and removing the need for the alloca by constructing the namedtuple
on the heap before populating it.
Heap usage in unchanged, stack usage is reduced, use of alloca is removed,
and code size is not increased and is actually reduced by between 20-30
bytes for most ports.
The while-loop that calls chop_component will guarantee that level==-1 at
the end of the loop. Hence the code following it is unnecessary.
The check for p==this_name will catch imports that are beyond the
top-level, and also covers the case of new_mod_q==MP_QSTR_ (equivalent to
new_mod_l==0) so that check is removed.
There is also a new check at the start for level>=0 to guard against
__import__ being called with bad level values.
Previous to this patch, a label with value "0" was used to indicate an
invalid label, but that meant a wasted word (at slot 0) in the array of
label offsets. This patch adjusts the label indices so the first one
starts at 0, and the maximum value indicates an invalid label.
This patch fixes a bug whereby the Python stack was not correctly reset if
there was a break/continue statement in the else black of an optimised
for-range loop.
For example, in the following code the "j" variable from the inner for loop
was not being popped off the Python stack:
for i in range(4):
for j in range(4):
pass
else:
continue
This is now fixed with this patch.
In CPython 3.4 this raises a SyntaxError. In CPython 3.5+ having a
positional after * is allowed but uPy has the wrong semantics and passes
the arguments in the incorrect order. To prevent incorrect use of a
function going unnoticed it is important to raise the SyntaxError in uPy,
until the behaviour is fixed to follow CPython 3.5+.
This patch fixes 2 things when printing a floating-point number that
requires rounding up of the mantissa:
- retain the correct precision; eg 0.99 becomes 1.0, not 1.00
- if the exponent goes from -1 to 0 then render it as +0, not -0
Taking the address of a local variable leads to increased stack usage, so
the mp_decode_uint_skip() function is added to reduce the need for taking
addresses. The changes in this patch reduce stack usage of a Python call
by 8 bytes on ARM Thumb, by 16 bytes on non-windowing Xtensa archs, and by
16 bytes on x86-64. Code size is also slightly reduced on most archs by
around 32 bytes.
The implementation is taken from stmhal/input.c, with code added to handle
ctrl-C. This built-in is controlled by MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_INPUT and is
disabled by default. It uses readline() to capture input but this can be
overridden by defining the mp_hal_readline macro.
For make v3.81, using "make -B" can set $? to empty and in this case the
auto-qstr generation needs to pass all args (ie $^) to cpp. The previous
fix for this (which was removed in 23a693ec2d)
used if statements in the shell command, which gave very long lines that
didn't work on certain systems (eg cygwin).
The fix in this patch is to use an $if(...) expression, which will evaluate
to $? (only newer prerequisites) if it's non empty, otherwise it will use
$^ (all prerequisites).
Previous to this patch the mp_emit_bc_adjust_stack_size function would
adjust the current stack size but would not increase the maximum stack size
if the current size went above it. This meant that certain Python code
(eg a try-finally block with no statements inside it) would not have enough
Python stack allocated to it.
This patch fixes the problem by always checking if the current stack size
goes above the maximum, and adjusting the latter if it does.
This patch fixes a regression introduced by
71a3d6ec3b
Previous to this patch the n_state variable was referring to that computed
at the very start of the mp_execute_bytecode function. This patch fixes it
so that n_state is recomputed when the code_state changes.
Working on a build with PY_IO enabled (for PY_UJSON support) but PY_SYS_STDFILES disabled (no filesystem). There are multiple references to mp_sys_stdout_obj that should only be enabled if both PY_IO and PY_SYS_STDFILES are enabled.
This ensures that mpy-cross is automatically built (and is up-to-date) for
ports that use frozen bytecode. It also makes sure that .mpy files are
re-built if mpy-cross is changed.
Now consistently uses the EOL processing ("\r" and "\r\n" convert to "\n")
and EOF processing (ensure "\n" before EOF) provided by next_char().
In particular the lexer can now correctly handle input that starts with CR.
Prior to this patch only 'q' and 'Q' type arrays could store big-int
values. With this patch any big int that is stored to an array is handled
by the big-int implementation, regardless of the typecode of the array.
This allows arrays to work with all type sizes on all architectures.
The with semantics of this function is close to
pkg_resources.resource_stream() function from setuptools, which
is the canonical way to access non-source files belonging to a package
(resources), regardless of what medium the package uses (e.g. individual
source files vs zip archive). In the case of MicroPython, this function
allows to access resources which are frozen into the executable, besides
accessing resources in the file system.
This is initial stage of the implementation, which actually doesn't
implement "package" part of the semantics, just accesses frozen resources
from "root", or filesystem resource - from current dir.
The standard preprocessor definition to differentiate debug and non-debug
builds is NDEBUG, not DEBUG, so don't rely on the latter:
- just delete the use of it in objint_longlong.c as it has been stale code
for years anyway (since commit [c4029e5]): SUFFIX isn't used anywhere.
- replace DEBUG with MICROPY_DEBUG_NLR in nlr.h: it is rarely used anymore
so can be off by default
This patch allows the following code to run without allocating on the heap:
super().foo(...)
Before this patch such a call would allocate a super object on the heap and
then load the foo method and call it right away. The super object is only
needed to perform the lookup of the method and not needed after that. This
patch makes an optimisation to allocate the super object on the C stack and
discard it right after use.
Changes in code size due to this patch are:
bare-arm: +128
minimal: +232
unix x64: +416
unix nanbox: +364
stmhal: +184
esp8266: +340
cc3200: +128
This patch refactors the handling of the special super() call within the
compiler. It removes the need for a global (to the compiler) state variable
which keeps track of whether the subject of an expression is super. The
handling of super() is now done entirely within one function, which makes
the compiler a bit cleaner and allows to easily add more optimisations to
super calls.
Changes to the code size are:
bare-arm: +12
minimal: +0
unix x64: +48
unix nanbox: -16
stmhal: +4
cc3200: +0
esp8266: -56
With this optimisation enabled the compiler optimises the if-else
expression within a return statement. The optimisation reduces bytecode
size by 2 bytes for each use of such a return-if-else statement. Since
such a statement is not often used, and costs bytes for the code, the
feature is disabled by default.
For example the following code:
def f(x):
return 1 if x else 2
compiles to this bytecode with the optimisation disabled (left column is
bytecode offset in bytes):
00 LOAD_FAST 0
01 POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE 8
04 LOAD_CONST_SMALL_INT 1
05 JUMP 9
08 LOAD_CONST_SMALL_INT 2
09 RETURN_VALUE
and to this bytecode with the optimisation enabled:
00 LOAD_FAST 0
01 POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE 6
04 LOAD_CONST_SMALL_INT 1
05 RETURN_VALUE
06 LOAD_CONST_SMALL_INT 2
07 RETURN_VALUE
So the JUMP to RETURN_VALUE is optimised and replaced by RETURN_VALUE,
saving 2 bytes and making the code a bit faster.
Otherwise the type of parse-node and its kind has to be re-extracted
multiple times. This optimisation reduces code size by a bit (16 bytes on
bare-arm).
It controls the character that's used to (asynchronously) raise a
KeyboardInterrupt exception. Passing "-1" allows to disable the
interception of the interrupt character (as long as a port allows such a
behaviour).
If a finaliser raises an exception then it must not propagate through the
GC sweep function. This patch protects against such a thing by running
finaliser code via the mp_call_function_1_protected call.
This patch also adds scheduler lock/unlock calls around the finaliser
execution to further protect against any possible reentrancy issues: the
memory manager is already locked when doing a collection, but we also don't
want to allow any scheduled code to run, KeyboardInterrupts to interupt the
code, nor threads to switch.
The common cases for inheritance are 0 or 1 parent types, for both built-in
types (eg built-in exceptions) as well as user defined types. So it makes
sense to optimise the case of 1 parent type by storing just the type and
not a tuple of 1 value (that value being the single parent type).
This patch makes such an optimisation. Even though there is a bit more
code to handle the two cases (either a single type or a tuple with 2 or
more values) it helps reduce overall code size because it eliminates the
need to create a static tuple to hold single parents (eg for the built-in
exceptions). It also helps reduce RAM usage for user defined types that
only derive from a single parent.
Changes in code size (in bytes) due to this patch:
bare-arm: -16
minimal (x86): -176
unix (x86-64): -320
unix nanbox: -384
stmhal: -64
cc3200: -32
esp8266: -108
This buffer is used to allocate objects temporarily, and such objects
require that their underlying memory be correctly aligned for their data
type. Aligning for mp_obj_t should be sufficient for emergency exceptions,
but in general the memory buffer should aligned to the maximum alignment of
the machine (eg on a 32-bit machine with mp_obj_t being 4 bytes, a double
may not be correctly aligned).
This patch fixes a bug for certain nan-boxing builds, where mp_obj_t is 8
bytes and must be aligned to 8 bytes (even though the machine is 32 bit).
Hashing of float and complex numbers that are exact (real) integers should
return the same integer hash value as hashing the corresponding integer
value. Eg hash(1), hash(1.0) and hash(1+0j) should all be the same (this
is how Python is specified: if x==y then hash(x)==hash(y)).
This patch implements the simplest way of doing float/complex hashing by
just converting the value to int and returning that value.
Split this setting from MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT. The idea is to be able to
keep MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT disabled, but still pass more of regression
testsuite. In particular, this fixes last failing test in basics/ for
Zephyr port.
The first memmove now copies less bytes in some cases (because len_adj <=
slice_len), and the memcpy is replaced with memmove to support the
possibility that dest and slice regions are overlapping.
This follows the pattern of how all other headers are now included, and
makes it explicit where the header file comes from. This patch also
removes -I options from Makefile's that specify the mp-readline/timeutils/
netutils directories, which are no longer needed.
Build happens in 3 stages:
1. Zephyr config header and make vars are generated from prj.conf.
2. libmicropython is built using them.
3. Zephyr is built and final link happens.
This patch changes mp_uint_t to size_t for the len argument of the
following public facing C functions:
mp_obj_tuple_get
mp_obj_list_get
mp_obj_get_array
These functions take a pointer to the len argument (to be filled in by the
function) and callers of these functions should update their code so the
type of len is changed to size_t. For ports that don't use nan-boxing
there should be no change in generate code because the size of the type
remains the same (word sized), and in a lot of cases there won't even be a
compiler warning if the type remains as mp_uint_t.
The reason for this change is to standardise on the use of size_t for
variables that count memory (or memory related) sizes/lengths. It helps
builds that use nan-boxing.
With this patch all illegal assignments are reported as "can't assign to
expression". Before the patch there were special cases for a literal on
the LHS, and for augmented assignments (eg +=), but it seems a waste of
bytes (and there are lots of bytes used in error messages) to spend on
distinguishing such errors which a user will rarely encounter.
By removing the 'E' code from the operator token encoding mini-language the
tokenising can be simplified. The 'E' code was only used for the !=
operator which is now handled as a special case; the optimisations for the
general case more than make up for the addition of this single, special
case. Furthermore, the . and ... operators can be handled in the same way
as != which reduces the code size a little further.
This simplification also removes a "goto".
Changes in code size for this patch are (measured in bytes):
bare-arm: -48
minimal x86: -64
unix x86-64: -112
unix nanbox: -64
stmhal: -48
cc3200: -48
esp8266: -76
The self variable may be closed-over in the function, and in that case the
call to super() should load the contents of the closure cell using
LOAD_DEREF (before this patch it would just load the cell directly).
Previous to this patch, if the result of the round function overflowed a
small int, or was inf or nan, then a garbage value was returned. With
this patch the correct big-int is returned if necessary and exceptions are
raised for inf or nan.
The C nearbyint function has exactly the semantics that Python's round()
requires, whereas C's round() requires extra steps to handle rounding of
numbers half way between integers. So using nearbyint reduces code size
and potentially eliminates any source of errors in the handling of half-way
numbers.
Also, bare-metal implementations of nearbyint can be more efficient than
round, so further code size is saved (and efficiency improved).
nearbyint is provided in the C99 standard so it should be available on all
supported platforms.
Previous to this patch, if the result of the trunc/ceil/floor functions
overflowed a small int, or was inf or nan, then a garbage value was
returned. With this patch the correct big-int is returned if necessary,
and exceptions are raised for inf or nan.
It improves readability of code and reduces the chance to make a mistake.
This patch also fixes a bug with nan-boxing builds by rounding up the
calculation of the new NSLOTS variable, giving the correct number of slots
(being 4) even if mp_obj_t is larger than the native machine size.
Now, passing a keyword argument that is not expected will correctly report
that fact. If normal or detailed error messages are enabled then the name
of the unexpected argument will be reported.
This patch decreases the code size of bare-arm and stmhal by 12 bytes, and
cc3200 by 8 bytes. Other ports (minimal, unix, esp8266) remain the same in
code size. For terse error message configuration this is because the new
message is shorter than the old one. For normal (and detailed) error
message configuration this is because the new error message already exists
in py/objnamedtuple.c so there's no extra space in ROM needed for the
string.
The scheduler being locked general means we are running a scheduled
function, and switching to another thread violates that, so don't switch in
such a case (even though we technically could).
And if we are running a scheduled function then we want to finish it ASAP,
so we shouldn't switch to another thread.
Furthermore, ports with threading enabled will lock the scheduler during a
hard IRQ, and this patch to the VM will make sure that threads are not
switched during a hard IRQ (which would crash the VM).
Instead of always reporting some object cannot be implicitly be converted
to a 'str', even when it is a 'bytes' object, adjust the logic so that
when trying to convert str to bytes it is shown like that.
This will still report bad implicit conversion from e.g. 'int to bytes'
as 'int to str' but it will not result in the confusing
'can't convert 'str' object to str implicitly' anymore for calls like
b'somestring'.count('a').
Instead of caching data that is constant (code_info, const_table and
n_state), store just a pointer to the underlying function object from which
this data can be derived.
This helps reduce stack usage for the case when the mp_code_state_t
structure is stored on the stack, as well as heap usage when it's stored
on the heap.
The downside is that the VM becomes a little more complex because it now
needs to derive the data from the underlying function object. But this
doesn't impact the performance by much (if at all) because most of the
decoding of data is done outside the main opcode loop. Measurements using
pystone show that little to no performance is lost.
This patch also fixes a nasty bug whereby the bytecode can be reclaimed by
the GC during execution. With this patch there is always a pointer to the
function object held by the VM during execution, since it's stored in the
mp_code_state_t structure.
When make is passed "-B" it seems that everything is considered out-of-date
and so $? expands to all prerequisites. Thus there is no need for a
special check to see if $? is emtpy.
Some stack is allocated to format ints, and when the int implementation uses
long-long there should be additional stack allocated compared with the other
cases. This patch uses the existing "fmt_int_t" type to determine the
amount of stack to allocate.
This patch refactors the error handling in the lexer, to simplify it (ie
reduce code size).
A long time ago, when the lexer/parser/compiler were first written, the
lexer and parser were designed so they didn't use exceptions (ie nlr) to
report errors but rather returned an error code. Over time that has
gradually changed, the parser in particular has more and more ways of
raising exceptions. Also, the lexer never really handled all errors without
raising, eg there were some memory errors which could raise an exception
(and in these rare cases one would get a fatal nlr-not-handled fault).
This patch accepts the fact that the lexer can raise exceptions in some
cases and allows it to raise exceptions to handle all its errors, which are
for the most part just out-of-memory errors during construction of the
lexer. This makes the lexer a bit simpler, and also the persistent code
stuff is simplified.
What this means for users of the lexer is that calls to it must be wrapped
in a nlr handler. But all uses of the lexer already have such an nlr
handler for the parser (and compiler) so that doesn't put any extra burden
on the callers.
INT_MAX used previosly is indeed max value for int, whereas on LP64
platforms, long is used for mp_int_t. Using MP_SMALL_INT_MAX is the
correct way to do it anyway.
Each threads needs to have its own private references to its current
locals/globals dicts, otherwise functions running within different
contexts (eg imported from different files) can behave very strangely.
There were 2 bugs, now fixed by this patch:
- after deleting an element the len of the dict did not decrease by 1
- after deleting an element searching through the dict could lead to
a seg fault due to there being an MP_OBJ_SENTINEL in the ordered array
