stijn 84fa3312cf all: Format code to add space after C++-style comment start.
Note: the uncrustify configuration is explicitly set to 'add' instead of
'force' in order not to alter the comments which use extra spaces after //
as a means of indenting text for clarity.

Damien George b47e155bd0 py/persistentcode: Add ability to relocate loaded native code.
Implements text, rodata and bss generalised relocations, as well as generic
qstr-object linking.  This allows importing dynamic native modules on all
supported architectures in a unified way.

Damien George c8c0fd4ca3 py: Rework and compress second part of bytecode prelude.
This patch compresses the second part of the bytecode prelude which
contains the source file name, function name, source-line-number mapping
and cell closure information.  This part of the prelude now begins with a
single varible length unsigned integer which encodes 2 numbers, being the
byte-size of the following 2 sections in the header: the "source info
section" and the "closure section".  After decoding this variable unsigned
integer it's possible to skip over one or both of these sections very
easily.

This scheme saves about 2 bytes for most functions compared to the original
format: one in the case that there are no closure cells, and one because
padding was eliminated.

Damien George b5ebfadbd6 py: Compress first part of bytecode prelude.
The start of the bytecode prelude contains 6 numbers telling the amount of
stack needed for the Python values and exceptions, and the signature of the
function.  Prior to this patch these numbers were all encoded one after the
other (2x variable unsigned integers, then 4x bytes), but using so many
bytes is unnecessary.

An entropy analysis of around 150,000 bytecode functions from the CPython
standard library showed that the optimal Shannon coding would need about
7.1 bits on average to encode these 6 numbers, compared to the existing 48
bits.

This patch attempts to get close to this optimal value by packing the 6
numbers into a single, varible-length unsigned integer via bit-wise
interleaving.  The interleaving scheme is chosen to minimise the average
number of bytes needed, and at the same time keep the scheme simple enough
so it can be implemented without too much overhead in code size or speed.
The scheme requires about 10.5 bits on average to store the 6 numbers.

As a result most functions which originally took 6 bytes to encode these 6
numbers now need only 1 byte (in 80% of cases).

Milan Rossa 310b3d1b81 py: Integrate sys.settrace feature into the VM and runtime.
This commit adds support for sys.settrace, allowing to install Python
handlers to trace execution of Python code.  The interface follows CPython

enabled via MICROPY_PY_SYS_SETTRACE.

Damien George 992a6e1dea py/persistentcode: Pack qstrs directly in bytecode to reduce mpy size.
Instead of emitting two bytes in the bytecode for where the linked qstr
should be written to, it is now replaced by the actual qstr data, or a
reference into the qstr window.

Reduces mpy file size by about 10%.

Damien George a3dc1b1957 all: Remove inclusion of internal py header files.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
    py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
    py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
    py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums

Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
    py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
        mp_obj_t type
    py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
        and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions

Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.

Alexander Steffen 299bc62586 all: Unify header guard usage.
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

Damien George a8a5d1e8c8 py: Provide mp_decode_uint_skip() to help reduce stack usage.
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.

Damien George 5640e6dacd py: Provide mp_decode_uint_value to help optimise stack usage.
This has a noticeable improvement on x86-64 and Thumb2 archs, where stack
usage is reduced by 2 machine words in the VM.

Damien George 71a3d6ec3b py: Reduce size of mp_code_state_t structure.
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.

Damien George 999cedb90f py: Wrap all obj-ptr conversions in MP_OBJ_TO_PTR/MP_OBJ_FROM_PTR.
This allows the mp_obj_t type to be configured to something other than a
pointer-sized primitive type.

This patch also includes additional changes to allow the code to compile
when sizeof(mp_uint_t) != sizeof(void*), such as using size_t instead of
mp_uint_t, and various casts.

Damien George 74eb44c392 py: Reduce size of VM exception stack element by 1 machine word.
This optimisation reduces the VM exception stack element (mp_exc_stack_t)
by 1 word, by using bit 1 of a pointer to store whether the opcode was a
FINALLY or WITH opcode.  This optimisation was pending, waiting for
maturity of the exception handling code, which has now proven itself.

Saves 1 machine word RAM for each exception (4->3 words per exception).
Increases stmhal code by 4 bytes, and decreases unix x64 code by 32
bytes.

Damien George 1084b0f9c2 py: Store bytecode arg names in bytecode (were in own array).
This saves a lot of RAM for 2 reasons:

1. For functions that don't have default values, var args or var kw
args (which is a large number of functions in the general case), the
mp_obj_fun_bc_t type now fits in 1 GC block (previously needed 2 because
of the extra pointer to point to the arg_names array).  So this saves 16
bytes per function (32 bytes on 64-bit machines).

2. Combining separate memory regions generally saves RAM because the
unused bytes at the end of the GC block are saved for 1 of the blocks
(since that block doesn't exist on its own anymore).  So generally this
saves 8 bytes per function.

Tested by importing lots of modules:

- 64-bit Linux gave about an 8% RAM saving for 86k of used RAM.
- pyboard gave about a 6% RAM saving for 31k of used RAM.

Damien George b534e1b9f1 py: Use variable length encoded uints in more places in bytecode.
Code-info size, block name, source name, n_state and n_exc_stack now use
variable length encoded uints.  This saves 7-9 bytes per bytecode
function for most functions.

Damien George 3c658a4e75 py: Fix bug where GC collected native/viper/asm function data.
Because (for Thumb) a function pointer has the LSB set, pointers to
dynamic functions in RAM (eg native, viper or asm functions) were not
being traced by the GC.  This patch is a comprehensive fix for this.

Addresses issue #820.

Paul Sokolovsky b4ebad3310 vm: Factor out structure with code execution state and pass it around.
This improves stack usage in callers to mp_execute_bytecode2, and is step
forward towards unifying execution interface for function and generators
(which is important because generators don't even support full forms
of arguments passing (keywords, etc.)).
