Blanket wide to all .c and .h files. Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.
Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.
On stmhal, computed gotos make the binary about 1k bigger, but makes it
run faster, and we have the room, so why not. All tests pass on
pyboard using computed gotos.
A specific target can define either MP_ENDIANNESS_LITTLE or MP_ENDIANNESS_BIG
to 1. Default is MP_ENDIANNESS_LITTLE.
TODO: Autodetect based on compiler predefined macros?
Working towards trying to support compile-time constants (see discussion
in issue #227), this patch allows the compiler to look inside arbitrary
uPy objects at compile time. The objects to search are given by the
macro MICROPY_EXTRA_CONSTANTS (so they must be constant/ROM objects),
and the constant folding occures on forms base.attr (both base and attr
must be id's).
It works, but it breaks strict CPython compatibility, since the lookup
will succeed even without importing the namespace.
Only calcsize() and unpack() functions provided so far, for little-endian
byte order. Format strings don't support repition spec (like "2b3i").
Unfortunately, dealing with all the various binary type sizes and alignments
will lead to quite a bloated "binary" helper functions - if optimizing for
speed. Need to think if using dynamic parametrized algos makes more sense.
mp_module_obj_t can now be put in ROM.
Configuration of float type is now similar to longint: can now choose
none, float or double as the implementation.
math module has basic math functions. For STM port, these are not yet
implemented (they are just stub functions).
Each built-in exception is now a type, with base type BaseException.
C exceptions are created by passing a pointer to the exception type to
make an instance of. When raising an exception from the VM, an
instance is created automatically if an exception type is raised (as
opposed to an exception instance).
Exception matching (RT_BINARY_OP_EXCEPTION_MATCH) is now proper.
Handling of parse error changed to match new exceptions.
mp_const_type renamed to mp_type_type for consistency.
Some tools do not support local/static symbols (one example is GNU ld map file).
Exposing all functions will allow to do detailed size comparisons, etc.
Also, added bunch of statics where they were missing, and replaced few identity
functions with global mp_identity().
Implicit "micropython" module contains (at least) codegeneration decorators.
Make it explicit, so an app could have "import micropython". On MicroPython,
that will be no-op. On CPython, that will give a chance to have a module
with placeholder decorators.
