Discord user Folknology encountered a problem building with Python 3.6.9,
`TypeError: ord() expected a character, but string of length 0 found`.
I was able to reproduce the problem using Python3.5*, and discovered that
the meaning of the regular expression `"|."` had changed in 3.7. Before,
```
>>> [m.group(0) for m in re.finditer("|.", "hello")]
['', '', '', '', '', '']
```
After:
```
>>> [m.group(0) for m in re.finditer("|.", "hello")]
['', 'h', '', 'e', '', 'l', '', 'l', '', 'o', '']
```
Check if `words` is empty and if so use `"."` as the regular expression
instead. This gives the same result on both versions:
```
['h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']
```
and fixes the generation of the huffman dictionary.
Folknology verified that this fix worked for them.
* I could easily install 3.5 but not 3.6. 3.5 reproduced the same problem
This construct (which I added without sufficient testing,
apparently) is only supported in Python 3.7 and newer. Make it
optional so that this script works on other Python versions. This
means that if you have a system with non-UTF-8 encoding you will
need to use Python 3.7.
In particular, this affects a problem building circuitpython in
github's ubuntu-18.04 virtual environment when Python 3.7 is not
explicitly installed. cookie-cuttered libraries call for Python
3.6:
```
- name: Set up Python 3.6
uses: actions/setup-python@v1
with:
python-version: 3.6
```
Since CircuitPython's own build calls for 3.8, this problem was not
detected.
This problem was also encountered by discord user mdroberts1243.
The failure I encountered was here:
https://github.com/jepler/Jepler_CircuitPython_udecimal/runs/1138045020?check_suite_focus=true
.. while my step of "clone and build circuitpython unix port" is
unusual, I think the same problem would have affected "build assets"
if that step had been reached.
Most users and the CI system are running in configurations where Python
configures stdout and stderr in UTF-8 mode. However, Windows is different,
setting values like CP1252. This led to a build failure on Windows, because
makeqstrdata printed Unicode strings to its stdout, expecting them to be
encoded as UTF-8.
This script is writing (stdout) to a compiler input file and potentially
printing messages (stderr) to a log or console. Explicitly configure stdout to
use utf-8 to get consistent behavior on all platforms, and configure stderr so
that if any log/diagnostic messages are printed that cannot be displayed
correctly, they are still displayed instead of creating an error while trying
to print the diagnostic information.
I considered setting the encodings both to ascii, but this would just be
occasionally inconvenient to developers like me who want to show diagnostic
info on stderr and in comments while working with the compression code.
Closes: #3408
While checking whether we can enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough, I encountered
a diagnostic in mp_binary_set_val_array_from_int which led to discovering
the following bug:
```
>>> struct.pack("xb", 3)
b'\x03\x03'
```
That is, the next value (3) was used as the value of a padding byte, while
standard Python always fills "x" bytes with zeros. I initially thought
this had to do with the unintentional fallthrough, but it doesn't.
Instead, this code would relate to an array.array with a typecode of
padding ('x'), which is ALSO not desktop Python compliant:
```
>>> array.array('x', (1, 2, 3))
array('x', [1, 0, 0])
```
Possibly this is dead code that used to be shared between struct-setting
and array-setting, but it no longer is.
I also discovered that the argument list length for struct.pack
and struct.pack_into were not checked, and that the length of binary data
passed to array.array was not checked to be a multiple of the element
size.
I have corrected all of these to conform more closely to standard Python
and revised some tests where necessary. Some tests for micropython-specific
behavior that does not conform to standard Python and is not present
in CircuitPython was deleted outright.
Massive savings. Thanks so much @ciscorn for providing the initial
code for choosing the dictionary.
This adds a bit of time to the build, both to find the dictionary
but also because (for reasons I don't fully understand), the binary
search in the compress() function no longer worked and had to be
replaced with a linear search.
I think this is because the intended invariant is that for codebook
entries that encode to the same number of bits, the entries are ordered
in ascending value. However, I mis-placed the transition from "words"
to "byte/char values" so the codebook entries for words are in word-order
rather than their code order.
Because this price is only paid at build time, I didn't care to determine
exactly where the correct fix was.
I also commented out a line to produce the "estimated total memory size"
-- at least on the unix build with TRANSLATION=ja, this led to a build
time KeyError trying to compute the codebook size for all the strings.
I think this occurs because some single unicode code point ('ァ') is
no longer present as itself in the compressed strings, due to always
being replaced by a word.
As promised, this seems to save hundreds of bytes in the German translation
on the trinket m0.
Testing performed:
- built trinket_m0 in several languages
- built and ran unix port in several languages (en, de_DE, ja) and ran
simple error-producing codes like ./micropython -c '1/0'
Compress common unicode bigrams by making code points in the range
0x80 - 0xbf (inclusive) represent them. Then, they can be greedily
encoded and the substituted code points handled by the existing Huffman
compression. Normally code points in the range 0x80-0xbf are not used
in Unicode, so we stake our own claim. Using the more arguably correct
"Private Use Area" (PUA) would mean that for scripts that only use
code points under 256 we would use more memory for the "values" table.
bigram means "two letters", and is also sometimes called a "digram".
It's nothing to do with "big RAM". For our purposes, a bigram represents
two successive unicode code points, so for instance in our build on
trinket m0 for english the most frequent are:
['t ', 'e ', 'in', 'd ', ...].
The bigrams are selected based on frequency in the corpus, but the
selection is not necessarily optimal, for these reasons I can think of:
* Suppose the corpus was just "tea" repeated 100 times. The
top bigrams would be "te", and "ea". However,
overlap, "te" could never be used. Thus, some bigrams might actually
waste space
* I _assume_ this has to be why e.g., bigram 0x86 "s " is more
frequent than bigram 0x85 " a" in English for Trinket M0, because
sequences like "can't add" would get the "t " digram and then
be unable to use the " a" digram.
* And generally, if a bigram is frequent then so are its constituents.
Say that "i" and "n" both encode to just 5 or 6 bits, then the huffman
code for "in" had better compress to 10 or fewer bits or it's a net
loss!
* I checked though! "i" is 5 bits, "n" is 6 bits (lucky guess)
but the bigram 0x83 also just 6 bits, so this one is a win of
5 bits for every "it" minus overhead. Yay, this round goes to team
compression.
* On the other hand, the least frequent bigram 0x9d " n" is 10 bits
long and its constituent code points are 4+6 bits so there's no
savings, but there is the cost of the table entry.
* and somehow 0x9f 'an' is never used at all!
With or without accounting for overlaps, there is some optimum number
of bigrams. Adding one more bigram uses at least 2 bytes (for the
entry in the bigram table; 4 bytes if code points >255 are in the
source text) and also needs a slot in the Huffman dictionary, so
adding bigrams beyond the optimim number makes compression worse again.
If it's an improvement, the fact that it's not guaranteed optimal
doesn't seem to matter too much. It just leaves a little more fruit
for the next sweep to pick up. Perhaps try adding the most frequent
bigram not yet present, until it doesn't improve compression overall.
Right now, de_DE is again the "fullest" build on trinket_m0. (It's
reclaimed that spot from the ja translation somehow) This change saves
104 bytes there, increasing free space about 6.8%. In the larger
(but not critically full) pyportal build it saves 324 bytes.
The specific number of bigrams used (32) was chosen as it is the max
number that fit within the 0x80..0xbf range. Larger tables would
require the use of 16 bit code points in the de_DE build, losing savings
overall.
(Side note: The most frequent letters in English have been said
to be: ETA OIN SHRDLU; but we have UAC EIL MOPRST in our corpus)
A crash like the following occurs in the unix port:
```
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

1392 return mp_builtin___import__(5, args);
```
I don't understand how it doesn't happen on the embedded ports, because
the module object should reside in ROM and the assignment of self->globals
should trigger a Hard Fault.
By checking VERIFY_PTR, we know that the pointed-to data is on the heap
so we can do things like mutate it.
In #2689, hitting ctrl-c during the printing of an object with a lot of sub-objects could cause the screen to stop updating (without showing a KeyboardInterrupt). This makes the printing of such objects acutally interruptable, and also correctly handles the KeyboardInterrupt:
```
>>> l = ["a" * 100] * 200
>>> l
['aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...aaaaaaaaaaa', Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
KeyboardInterrupt:
>>>
```
The font is missing many characters and the build needs the space.
We can optimize font storage when we get a good font.
The serial output will work as usual.
This check as implemented is misleading, because it compares the
compressed size in bytes (including the length indication) with the source
string length in Unicode code points. For English this is approximately
fair, but for Japanese this is quite unfair and produces an excess of
"increased length" messages.
This message might have existed for one of two reasons:
* to alert to an improperly function huffman compression
* to call attention to a need for a "string is stored uncompressed" case
We know by now that the huffman compression is functioning as designed and
effective in general.
Just to be on the safe side, I did some back-of-the-envelope estimates.
I considered these three replacements for "the true source string size, in bytes":
+ decompressed_len_utf8 = len(decompressed.encode('utf-8'))
+ decompressed_len_utf16 = len(decompressed.encode('utf-16be'))
+ decompressed_len_bitsize = ((1+len(decompressed)) * math.ceil(math.log(1+len(values), 2)) + 7) // 8
The third counts how many bits each character requires (fewer than 128
characters in the source character set = 7, fewer than 256 = 8, fewer than 512
= 9, etc, adding a string-terminating value) and is in some way representative
of the best way we would be able to store "uncompressed strings". The Japanese
translation (largest as of writing) has just a few strings which increase by
this metric. However, the amount of loss due to expansion in those cases is
outweighed by the cost of adding 1 bit per string to indicate whether it's
compressed or not. For instance, in the BOARD=trinket_m0 TRANSLATION=ja build
the loss is 47 bytes over 300 strings. Adding 1 bit to each of 300 strings will
cost about 37 bytes, leaving just 5 Thumb instructions to implement the code to
check and decode "uncompressed" strings in order to break even.
This is a slight trade-off with code size, in places where a "_varg"
mp_raise variant is now used. The net savings on trinket_m0 is
just 32 bytes.
It also means that the translation will include the original English
text, and cannot be translated. These are usually names of Python
types such as int, set, or dict or special values such as "inf" or
"Nan".
This version
* moves source files to reflect module structure
* adds inline documentation suitable for extract_pyi
* incompatibly moves spectrogram to fft
* incompatibly removes "extras"
There are some remaining markup errors in the specific revision of
extmod/ulab but they do not prevent the doc building process from

MicroPython's original implementation of __aiter__ was correct for an
earlier (provisional) version of PEP492 (CPython 3.5), where __aiter__ was
an async-def function. But that changed in the final version of PEP492 (in
CPython 3.5.2) where the function was changed to a normal one. See
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/#why-aiter-does-not-return-an-awaitable
See also the note at the end of this subsection in the docs:
https://docs.python.org/3.5/reference/datamodel.html#asynchronous-iterators
And for completeness the BPO: https://bugs.python.org/issue27243
To be consistent with the Python spec as it stands today (and now that
PEP492 is final) this commit changes MicroPython's behaviour to match
CPython: __aiter__ should return an async-iterable object, but is not
itself awaitable.
The relevant tests are updated to match.
See #6267.
coroutines don't have __next__; they also call themselves coroutines.
This does not change the fact that `async def` methods are generators,
but it does make them behave more like CPython.
Otherwise functions like memset might get optimised to call themselves (eg
with gcc 10). And provide CFLAGS_BUILTIN so these options can be changed
by a port if needed.
Fixes issue #6053.
Testing performed: That a card is successfully mounted on Pygamer with
the built in SD card slot
This module is enabled for most FULL_BUILD boards, but is disabled for
samd21 ("M0"), litex, and pca10100 for various reasons.
I noticed that this code was referring to samd-specific functionality,
and isn't enabled except in one samd board (pewpew10). Move it.
There is incomplte support for _pew in mimxrt10xx which then caused build
errors; adding a #if guard to check for _pew being enabled fixes it.
The _pew module is not likely to be important on mimxrt but I'll leave the
choice to remove it to someone else.
* Fix flash writes that don't end on a sector boundary. Fixes#2944
* Fix enum incompatibility with IDF.
* Fix printf output so it goes out debug UART.
* Increase stack size to 8k.
* Fix sleep of less than a tick so it doesn't crash.
Length was stored as a 16-bit number always. Most translations have
a max length far less. For example, US English translation lengths
always fit in just 8 bits. probably all languages fit in 9 bits.
This also has the side effect of reducing the alignment of
compressed_string_t from 2 bytes to 1.
testing performed: ran in german and english on pyruler, printed messages
looked right.
Firmware size, en_US
Before: 3044 bytes free in flash
After: 3408 bytes free in flash
Firmware size, de_DE (with #2967 merged to restore translations)
Before: 1236 bytes free in flash
After: 1600 bytes free in flash
This adds an exception to be raised when the WatchDogTimer times out.
Note that this currently causes a HardFault, and it's not clear why it's
not behaving properly.

vectorio builds on m4 express feather
Concrete shapes are composed into a VectorShape which is put into a displayio Group for display.
VectorShape provides transpose and x/y positioning for shape implementations.
Included Shapes:
* Circle
- A radius; Circle is positioned at its axis in the VectorShape.
- You can freely modify the radius to grow and shrink the circle in-place.
* Polygon
- An ordered list of points.
- Beteween each successive point an edge is inferred. A final edge closing the shape is inferred between the last
point and the first point.
- You can modify the points in a Polygon. The points' coordinate system is relative to (0, 0) so if you'd like a
top-center justified 10x20 rectangle you can do points [(-5, 0), (5, 0), (5, 20), (0, 20)] and your VectorShape
x and y properties will position the rectangle relative to its top center point
* Rectangle
A width and a height.
This adds initial support for an AES module named aesio. This
implementation supports only a subset of AES modes, namely
ECB, CBC, and CTR modes.
Example usage:
```
>>> import aesio
>>>
>>> key = b'Sixteen byte key'
>>> cipher = aesio.AES(key, aesio.MODE_ECB)
>>> output = bytearray(16)
>>> cipher.encrypt_into(b'Circuit Python!!', output)
>>> output
bytearray(b'E\x14\x85\x18\x9a\x9c\r\x95>\xa7kV\xa2`\x8b\n')
>>>
```
This key is 16-bytes, so it uses AES128. If your key is 24- or 32-
bytes long, it will switch to AES192 or AES256 respectively.
This has been tested with many of the official NIST test vectors,
such as those used in `pycryptodome` at
39626a5b01/lib/Crypto/SelfTest/Cipher/test_vectors/AES
CTR has not been tested as NIST does not provide test vectors for it.

This gets all the purely internal references. Some uses of
protomatter/Protomatter/PROTOMATTER remain, as they are references
to symbols in the Protomatter C library itself.
I originally believed that there would be a wrapper library around it,
like with _pixelbuf; but this proves not to be the case, as there's
too little for the library to do.
Formerly, if you wrote
SPI.frequency = 0
you would get the sightly erroneous error message
AttributeError: 'SPI' object has no attribute 'frequency'
In this case, a better message would read
AttributeError: 'SPI' object cannot assign attribute 'frequency'
This new message will both be used in the case where the attribute doesn't
exist at all (and the object has no dynamic attributes; most instances of
built in types behave this way), or if the attribute exists but is
read-only.
This should reclaim *most* code space added to handle f-strings.
However, there may be some small code growth as parse_string_literal
takes a new parameter (which will always be 0, so hopefully the optimizer
eliminates it)
This implements (most of) the PEP-498 spec for f-strings, with two
exceptions:
- raw f-strings (`fr` or `rf` prefixes) raise `NotImplementedError`
- one special corner case does not function as specified in the PEP
(more on that in a moment)
This is implemented in the core as a syntax translation, brute-forcing
all f-strings to run through `String.format`. For example, the statement
`x='world'; print(f'hello {x}')` gets translated *at a syntax level*
(injected into the lexer) to `x='world'; print('hello {}'.format(x))`.
While this may lead to weird column results in tracebacks, it seemed
like the fastest, most efficient, and *likely* most RAM-friendly option,
despite being implemented under the hood with a completely separate
`vstr_t`.
Since [string concatenation of adjacent literals is implemented in the
lexer](534b7c368d),
two side effects emerge:
- All strings with at least one f-string portion are concatenated into a
single literal which *must* be run through `String.format()` wholesale,
and:
- Concatenation of a raw string with interpolation characters with an
f-string will cause `IndexError`/`KeyError`, which is both different
from CPython *and* different from the corner case mentioned in the PEP
(which gave an example of the following:)
```python
x = 10
y = 'hi'
assert ('a' 'b' f'{x}' '{c}' f'str<{y:^4}>' 'd' 'e') == 'ab10{c}str< hi >de'
```
The above-linked commit detailed a pretty solid case for leaving string
concatenation in the lexer rather than putting it in the parser, and
undoing that decision would likely be disproportionately costly on
resources for the sake of a probably-low-impact corner case. An
alternative to become complaint with this corner case of the PEP would
be to revert to string concatenation in the parser *only when an
f-string is part of concatenation*, though I've done no investigation on
the difficulty or costs of doing this.
A decent set of tests is included. I've manually tested this on the
`unix` port on Linux and on a Feather M4 Express (`atmel-samd`) and
things seem sane.
Before this, such names would instead cause an assertion error inside
qstr_from_strn.
A simple reproducer is a python source file containing the letter "a"
repeated 256 times
This only fixes the `import` portion. It doesn't actually change
reference behavior because modules within a package could already
be referenced through the parent package even though an error should
have been thrown.
