This adds a new configuration option to print runtime warnings and errors to
stderr. On Unix, CPython prints warnings and unhandled exceptions to stderr,
so the unix port here is configured to use this option.
The unix port already printed unhandled exceptions on the main thread to
stderr. This patch fixes unhandled exceptions on other threads and warnings
(issue #2838) not printing on stderr.
Additionally, a couple tests needed to be fixed to handle this new behavior.
This is done by also capturing stderr when running tests.
The aim of this patch is to rewrite the functions that create exception
instances (mp_obj_exception_make_new and mp_obj_new_exception_msg_varg) so
that they do not call any functions that may raise an exception. Otherwise
it's possible to create infinite recursion with an exception being raised
while trying to create an exception object.
The two main things that are done to accomplish this are:
1. Change mp_obj_new_exception_msg_varg to just format the string, then
call mp_obj_exception_make_new to actually create the exception object.
2. In mp_obj_exception_make_new and mp_obj_new_exception_msg_varg try to
allocate all memory first using functions that don't raise exceptions
If any of the memory allocations fail (return NULL) then degrade
gracefully by trying other options for memory allocation, eg using the
emergency exception buffer.
3. Use a custom printer backend to conservatively format strings: if it
can't allocate memory then it just truncates the string.
As part of this rewrite, raising an exception without a message, like
KeyError(123), will now use the emergency buffer to store the arg and
traceback data if there is no heap memory available.
Memory use with this patch is unchanged. Code size is increased by:
bare-arm: +136
minimal x86: +124
unix x64: +72
unix nanbox: +96
stm32: +88
esp8266: +92
cc3200: +80
If we got a CRASH result, return early, similar to SKIP. This is important
because previous refactor changed branching logic a bit, so CRASH now gets
post-processed into CRASH\n, which broke remote hardware tests.
MICROPY_LONGINT_IMPL_LONGLONG doesn't have overflow detection, so just
parsing a large number won't give an error, we need to print it out
to check that the whole number was parsed.
Tests which don't work with small ints are suffixed with _intbig.py. Some
of these may still work with long long ints and need to be reclassified
later.
This allows using the test runner for other scenarios than just
testing uPy itself.
The principle of comparing either to CPython or else to a .exp
file is really handy but to be able to test custom modules not
built into micropython.exe one needs to be able to specify the
module search path a.k.a MICROPYPATH.
If sets are not enabled, set literals lead to SyntaxError during parsing,
so it requires feature_check. Set tests are skipped based on set_*.py
pattern.
The output might contain more than one line ending in 5b so properly skip
everything until the next known point.
This fixes test failures in appveyor debug builds.
